Development of a River Basin Management Plan for Hrazdan River Basin
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. -

The Staphylinidae of Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh (Coleoptera)
69 (1): 091 – 173 2019 © 2019 TheSenckenberg Authors Gesellschaft für Naturforschung The Staphylinidae of Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh (Coleoptera) With 65 figures, 8 maps and 4 tables V?@ABC ADDEFG 1 and MEIJKB@ SIJL@AB 2 1 Gabelsbergerstraße 2, 30163 Hannover, Germany. – [email protected] 2 Museum für Naturkunde, Invalidenstraße 43, 10115 Berlin, Germany. – [email protected] Published on 2019–06–24 DOI:10.21248/contrib.entomol.69.1.091-173 Abstract The previously largely neglected and poorly known staphylinid faunas of Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh are addressed. Based on a study of more than 31,000 Staphylinidae recently collected in various habitats and using differ- ent methods, and on a critical evaluation of previous literature records, a checklist of the faunas of Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh is compiled. The fauna of Armenia currently includes 675, that of Nagorno-Karabakh 198 named species. Nevertheless, it is concluded that the species inventory of both regions, especially that of Nagorno-Karabakh, is still far from complete. As many as 262 and 183 species are reported from Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh, respec- tively, for the first time. A list of 99 species erroneously or doubtfully recorded from the study region is provided. A comparison with the species number and systematic composition of the faunas of other Caucasian countries and regions revealed that (a) their known diversities are significantly lower than should be expected and (b) a remark- ably high proportion (nearly 40 %) of Aleocharinae in the faunas of Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh, with the genus Atheta T"#&'#*, 1858 alone accounting for approximately 10 % of the total diversity in Armenia. -

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. -

Onun bildirdiyinə görə həmin atlasda 40 min coğrafi ad qeydiyyata alınacaqd ır ki, bu zaman başqa dillərə məxsus olan 8-10 min coğrafi ad dəyişdirilərək erməni adları ilə əvəz olunacaqdır (http://newsarmenia.ru/arm1/20060123/41528686.html). M.Vardan- yanın qeyd etdiyi «başqa dillərə məxsus olan» həmin 8-10 min coğrafi ad məhz göstərilən torpaqlardan deportasiya edilmiş azərbaycanlılara məxsusdur. ...

Armenian Acts of Cultural Terrorism
Iğdır Azerbaijani‐Turkish Cultural Association ARMENIAN ACTS OF CULTURAL TERRORISM History remembers, while Names changed Cafer Qiyasi, İbrahim Bozyel Kitab Klubu www.kitabklubu.org Baku – 2007 PREFACE It is a fact that the most important factor which enables nations to last out, is their cultural identity. It goes down in history that a nationʹs failure to hold on to its cultural values tenaciously would lead to a total frustration. As pointed out by one writer, ʹIf we shoot bullets through our past, a cannonade by our future gen‐ erations is next to come.ʹ Therefore, in order to succeed in living up to standards of a dignified life, one has to protect, maintain, and transmit his cultural heritage, which in turn builds a bridge between the past and the future. Regrettably, even around the turn of the century, terrorism remains a grim fact. It is excruciating to witness innocent people falling victims to terrorism. How‐ ever, what is more dangerous and utterly unpardonable is cultural terrorism. Fighting, plundering and arson have long been canonized as glorifying forms of action by some nations therefore it has been highly pertinent, in their view, to obliterate the cultural artifacts belonging to their adversaries which survived over centuries. Most probably, history will not excuse those nations that are committed to prove their dignity by destroying the cultural monuments of other civilizations. Dear readers, in its attempt to shed light on the question What is cultural terrorism?, this book constitutes a striking piece of document presented to the world public. You will be petrified to read about the cultural genocide exercised vigorously over Azerbaijani Turks by Armenian propagandists who unjustly misinform the world by spreading erroneous claims of ethnic genocide ‐alleged mass killings of Arme‐ nians in Ottoman Turkey in 1915.
