SHPP on Akunq River (2014)
Risk Level: 1
|Sruface discharge volume in river section %, water||16||1|
|Disastrous Condition||Critical Condition||Normal Condition|
Around 17% of Akunq River Piped
The Akunq River flows in Kotayq Region. It starts from the western slopes of the Geghama mountains and joins the Hrazdan River on the left. Its length is 13 km. “Gndasar” SHPP project was submitted to the Environmental Expertise SNCO of Nature Protection Ministry in July 2013. Under the project, the derivation length of the pipeline is 2186 meters, thus the SHPP will pipe around 16.8153846% of the river.
Under EcoLur’s Ecological Risk Model, this indicator is within standards.
