    "In contrast to the past years when cows were greasing and hens
    were scratching near the dustbins today the refuse is obligatorily
    taken away in time. Yet some people have not given up their habit
    of throwing the litter near the dustbin," Mrs Alina, inhabitant of
    Heqimyan street, says.

    Director of "Sanitary Purification" public non-commercial organization
    Alexey Seiranyan assures of the proper implementation of waste disposal
    and reports that there are more than 200 waste disposal posts with
    700 dustbins in the capital. Waste disposal is performed every day
    by means of 18 cars.

    "The gathered waste is thrown away into the central dump near Berqadzor
    village, Askeran region, where every day the refuse is covered with
    a layer of soil by means of a tractor," A. Seiranyan noted in his
    interview to Karabakh-open.info and added that in the nearest future
    the central dump will be transported to another place.

    The transportation of the central dump is conditioned by the future
    exploitation of the airport.

    However, not all inhabitants of the capital are satisfied with the
    waste disposal. "It is two years I have lived in this street but I
    have never carried out the litter to the dustbin as it is too far
    from our house and both in rainy weather and in winter it becomes
    extremely hard to carry the trash out," Gayane, an inhabitant of
    Naberezhnaya street explains and adds that the inhabitants of the
    street who own a car prefer to carry the refuse out by car.

    The inhabitants of Hin Armenavan district have the same problem,
    part of them cannot carry the trash out to the single place for it as
    it is quite far away. According to A. Seiranyan however, they tried
    to locate some dustbins in the district but each of the inhabitants
    required it to be placed far from their house.

    "As the inhabitants did not come to an agreement we had to locate
    another dustbin near the railway station at a distance of 200-300
    meters from the residential settlement," he noted.

    On part of the trash that is poured into the River Karkar Seiranyan
    assured that the area was under their control and the trash could
    never be poured into the river as one of their employees watched the
    place every day and gathered the litter.

    Some of the inhabitants of the district assured that they throw the
    trash in the area near the River Karkar as it was impossible to carry
    it so far away. "In spite of this we are demanded to pay for waste
    disposal whereas the company does not perform its duties properly",
    a woman of 55 years old says.
