Abstract

Based on the results of the research, the processes of groundwater resources pollution and depletion were revealed in the Ararat Valley. To avoid the mentioned processes, it is necessary not only to prohibit digging new boreholes in the Ararat Artesian Basin, but also urgently define the limits of the current groundwater abstraction. At present the digging of new boreholes are prohibited in the Ararat Valley. In addition, currently such activities as well ceasing, conservation and regulation of the operational wells by valves take place in the Ararat Valley. In order to achieve the positive result, mentioned activities should be performed in continuous manner.
