    European Union Water Initiative Plus for Eastern Partnership Countries (EUWI+) Results 2 & 3 DEVELOPMENT OF A RIVER BASIN MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR HRAZDAN RIVER BASIN CONSULTATION ON THE PROGRAMME OF MEASURES APPENDIX 1 ANALYSIS OF QUESTIONNAIRES FOR LOCAL SELF-GOVERNMENT BODIES Version 1, 28 September 2020 APPENDIX 1 ANALYSIS OF THE HRAZDAN BASIN PUBLIC CONSULTATION QUESTIONNAIRES FOR LOCAL SELF-GOVERNMENT BODIES EUWI+ PROJECT: "COMMUNICATION ASSISTANCE TO SUPPORT THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE ACTION PLAN FOR PARTICIPATIVE RBM PLANNING IN ARMENIA" Within the framework of the European Union Water Initiative Plus (EUWI+) programme, the process of developing Hrazdan and Sevan basin management plans started in 2018. The process of public discussion and consultation of the Hrazdan Basin Management Plan took place from 20 June to 20 August 2020. The Water Basin Management Plan is a guidance document developed as a result of collaboration between different stakeholders, offering common solutions to meet the needs of all water users, taking into account also the needs of the environment. Public participation plays a key role in the management plan development process. Questionnaires were used as a key tool in the public discussion and consulting process, through which expert opinions and information were collected to make additions to the water basin management plan. The questionnaires were disseminated through Gegharkunik Marzpetaran, the official website of the Ministry of Environment of the RA, the official website of EUWI+, the social networks of the CWP, as well as various CSO networks. The questionnaire was filled in by local self-government bodies (LSGB) representing 52 communities (57 questionnaires) and by non-governmental stakeholders in the basin – 134 questionnaires .A total of 191 questionnaires were completed.

  • Chapter 3 Ground Survey
    Chapter 3 Ground Survey Chapter 3 Ground Survey 3.1 Drilling, Laboratory Tests The outline of the lithologic structure in Yerevan can be understood by the geological maps and the collected drilling database, which contains 5,094 logs; however, the data concerning the S wave velocity for the amplification analysis and the soil properties for the liquefaction analysis are not enough. To collect these data, 10 drillings were newly conducted in Yerevan and several tests were conducted using these boreholes. The quantities of the tests are shown in Table 3.1-1. Table 3.1-1 Quantities of Tests Category Quantities Drilling 30m x 10 Groundwater Level Measurement 10 Standard Penetration Test 129 Disturbed Soil Sampling 116 Laboratory Test 116 The drilling points are mainly set to the area where the Quaternary deposits cover because it is effective for the amplification of the earthquake motion by the ground and liquefaction potential. The geologic condition of Yerevan was estimated as follows from the existing information. The rock layer may be shallow in the northern area and the soft soils cover the southern area. Therefore, the selected newly boring points locate in the south of Yerevan city (Figure 3.1-1). The surface soils of each drilling points are shown in Table 3.1-1. The drilling logs are shown in Data Book. The example of drilling log is shown in Figure 3.1-1. 3-1 Final Report Vol. II Main Report 1 Figure 3.1-1 Location of drilling points Table 3.1-2 Surface geology of the drilling points Quaternary layer Symbol Age No.
