The Armenian Parliament passed the program of recovery, reproduction and rational use of lake Sevan ecosystem. Completion of construction of the tunnel that will assist replenishment of the lake at the expense of Vorotan river water makes an important part of the series of measures within the project. Let us remind the level of water in Sevan has lowered 22 meters since beginning of the thirties. The budget of Armenia will direct 2.6 million dollars to finish the construction of Vorotan tunnel already begun early in 80-s. The program project also provides for financing the works to expand fish resources. Some species of Sevan fauna are under the threat of complete extinction.
