YEREVAN. – Lake Sevan must be viewed as an inexhaustible source of
Armenia’s drinking water, environmentalist Gagik Sukhudyan stated at
a press conference on Tuesday.
According to Sukhudyan, along the lines of a pilot program, a large
fish farm will be artificially created in the lake.
“This is unacceptable, since we recommended not conducting experiments
in [Lake] Sevan. There are several artificial reservoirs for that. The
artificial feed [for the fish] may pollute the drinking water of
the lake.
“Owing to the drinking water of Sevan, we can play a key role in the
region, since drinking water will be worth gold in ten, fifteen years,”
the environmentalist stated.
