ArmInfo. Setting of a watermeter in the water-well hole cannot always
adequately reflect the volume of the water used by fish breeders,
chairman of the Armenian Fish Breeders Union, Arkadiy Gevorkyan, said
at today’s press-conference. ‘We are not against the fish breeders to
pay for the water they use. But watermeters are not always available
as they cost about 1 thsd EUR, and they are not always reliable. They
may pack up because of the sand and underground stones. They be damaged
purposefully and even stolen as an expensive equipment. A fish breeder
cannot guide all the watermeters for 24 hours’, – Gevorkyan said. He
suggested to set a reservoir, which may contain several hundreds liters
of water, under the water flow running from the water-well hole. ‘We
think that such an option is more reliable and we are going to offer
it, as we do not refuse paying for water’, – A.Gevorkyan said.
As for flushing of the used water, Gevorkyan said the government
should show aid to fish breeding companies to build drainage systems.
