Water & Sanitation
Another serious problem for the population is the
shortage of drinking water. As a result of the war, water supply systems
were almost entirely destroyed in 95 villages and towns and require
a complete overhaul. Water is available in the Republic's capital and
regional centers for only 1.5-2 hours a day. In many villages and towns,
water is available only every other day. Currently, water distribution
systems in eighty-eight towns and villages (including the capital Stepanakert
and provincial centers), need to be repaired. The quality of drinking
water, itself, must be improved.
Centralized heating system also needs to be restored
in major Nagorno Karabakh towns.
Suggested Programs and Estimated Cost:
Construction and restoration of water distribution
systems - $8 million
