«Due to the fact that the water indicators on the Dnipro River, after the explosion of the Kakhovka HPP, have changed, it is necessary to build our water treatment systems according to the latest standards. In addition, it is necessary to use water from other reservoirs,» the mayor wrote.
In addition, together with the French company EgIS, in the near future, the city will receive a technical and economic feasibility study for the construction of treatment facilities of Mykolaivvodokanal.
«It is important to understand that the main issue is not only finding financing and paying for the construction itself. For us, the most important thing is that the people of Mykolaiv do not pay exorbitant prices for water supply and drainage after that,» Oleksandr Sienkevych added.
