Abstract

At present, water supply of the eastern section of Dilijan City is implemented from the Spitakajur Stream waters, but they become turbid and unusable in the high water period. Water-geological conditions of the valley sections of the Spitakajur Stream middle flow are favorable for constructing waterside and infrabed water drainages, for intake of underground waters through them and for supplying with potable water the mentioned part of the City. Moreover, the volume of drainage waters, determined by the corresponding water-geological calculations, makes 20 L/s, which will completely satisfy drinking-household needs of the eastern section of Dilijan City (over 5000 capita).
