Veolia Jur clarifies changes in water supply schedule
In response to information and inquiries published in the press today, Veolia Jur has issued an official clarification.
According to the company, pursuant to Clause 134 of the “Rules for the Provision of Drinking Water Supply and Wastewater Removal (Sewage Treatment) Services” approved by the decision of the RA Public Services Regulatory Commission (PSRC), “Veolia Jur” CJSC is required to publish the targeted water supply schedule for subscribers for the following year on its official website.
According to the company, the schedule published during the year may undergo changes due to several factors. In particular, these include the addition of tens of thousands of new consumers throughout the year, changes in weather conditions—especially during the summer months—the technical capacities of the water supply system, a decrease in water yields from sources by approximately 24%, and a sharp increase in the number of new water consumers resulting from active construction developments.
It is also noted that the revision of the schedule aims to prevent water losses during nighttime hours, which allows for a more regular and stable water supply during daytime hours.
Within the framework of agreements reached with the Government, represented by the Water Committee, it is planned to implement investment capital projects with a volume increased nearly threefold. These projects are aimed at reducing physical losses, which, according to the company’s estimates, will increase the volumes of water supplied to Yerevan’s subscribers in the coming years.
Until the full completion of these projects, the company is required to announce seasonal fluctuations in water supply schedules at least twice a year.
As a reminder, a 17-hour water supply regime will be established at several addresses in Yerevan from May 1 to September 16. During this period, water will be supplied daily from 07:00 to 00:00.
The restrictions will apply to various addresses across all 12 administrative districts of the capital.
