The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) has launched the Advanced Science and Partnerships for Integrated Resource Development Project in Armenia, an initiative designed to curb the rate of groundwater abstraction in the Ararat Valley to sustainable levels.
USAID’s recent assessment of the status of groundwater resources in the Ararat Valley has indicated a decreasing level of the groundwater supply and the uncontrolled use of artesian water, which has left 30 villages in the Ararat and Armavir provinces without reliable access to drinking or irrigation water, NEWS.am reports.
