The Cabinet decided to take organizational actions and fully ensure its realization beginning from May, 2019 regarding the standard requirement for wastewater supply to sewerage integrated network, purifying industrial wastewater up to admissible levels and re-using wastewater for technological usage.

Moreover, the Cabinet assigned relevant Ministers and officials to develop proposals to improve the legal environment and monitor implementation of standards, rules and regulations. The Central Wastewater Treatment Plant began operations in 1964. It cleans 160-190 thousand cubic meters of wastewater a day, but the plant has no silt processing facilities and therefore dries 1000-1200 cubic meters of wet silt on an open-field each day. The accumulated silt reached 900 thousand cubic meters and contaminates the environment, air and soil and negatively impacts on people’s health.
