ArmInfo. Armenia is developing a strategy for managing the country's water resources, the main idea of which will be the construction of medium and small reservoirs.  RA Prime Minister Karen Karapetyan announced this on November 15 from the rostrum of the parliament.

According to him, The construction of medium and small reservoirs should be carried out with their maximum dislocation in the field, with the maintenance of environmental measures. An important factor should be the issue of tariffs from new reservoirs, which should not become an additional burden for the villagers. At present, the Prime Minister continued, together with a potential partner, the technical project of the construction of the reservoir in Kaps is being discussed. In particular, the issue of transferring the waters of the Akhuryan River from the Kaps reservoir to Armavir is discussed, which will improve the manageability of the water resources of this basin.
