YEREVAN TO BE CLEANED

Social

Yerevan will be cleaned with the help of a Russian company with which the Armenian side has signed a contract to get refuse-cleaning containers. The head of the Construction, reconstruction and communal economy department of the Yerevan municipality Frunzik Basentsyan informed about it today.

The residents of the Arabkir community will be the first to get the new containers. They will arrive in Armenia till the end of September. At present there are 6000 containers in Yerevan. According to Basentsyan, 450 tons of house refuse is taken out of Yerevan. The process is carries out by 12 organizations with 270 cars.

By the way, the workers of the organizations are paid only for moving the house refuse. As for the technical dumps, the citizens must pay separately for their cleaning.

Mr. Basensyan was surprised to learn that very often refuse cars are driven without a cover violating the sanitary norms. «I have never heard of it. If there are such cases, those responsible must be punished for it».
