Based on media reports concerning accumulated waste in the area surrounding Kari Lake, located on the slopes of Mount Aragats, the Environmental Protection and Mining Inspection Body (EPMIB) initiated administrative proceedings on 15 August.

As part of the proceedings, at the initiative of the EPMIB, discussions were held with the “Ashtarak Waste Collection and Sanitation” municipal institution regarding the organization of waste collection in the area.
