Wastewater falls into the polymidia reservoir

The movement of ecologists announced environmental damage to the reservoir of polymidia.

According to activists, wastewater falls into it, causing a strong stench and anxiety of the residents of the district. If you do not rectify the situation, environmental consequences will be very large -scale for the ecosystem and water quality.

Despite the repeated complaints to the competent departments - the Department of the Environment and the Department of Water Management - no solution to the problem that is constantly expanding was found.

 “Photos say for themselves. Wastewater falls into the flesh of polemiad, while there is a strong smell that bothers the inhabitants. The stench is unbearable, people are outraged by the inaction of the competent authorities. All officials are already aware of the situation for two years, but do nothing, ”the environmentalists say.

According to experts, a possible source of infection may be pollution from treatment facilities. In turn, the director of the Environmental Department Lakis Mesimeris said that the case is investigated and have already taken actions to clarify the causes and eliminate the situation.

“At first, the complaints were common and vague, but then they became more specific. In cooperation with the provincial environmental department and the provincial department of water farming, we investigate the causes of pollution or illegal discharges, ”the official said.

He emphasized that for this purpose, samples and local research are carried out. He also mentioned that on January 31 a meeting would be held with all the interested bodies at which he will preside.
