“In Crimea, according to experts, the Chernorychensky reservoir stopped filling – the largest source of drinking water for Sevastopol”, – WRITE: www.radiosvoboda.org
According to him, the Suuk-Su River, which is the longest on the southern coast of Crimea, has dried up, even urban drains did not save it from completely drying.
“The rivers dry up all over the Crimea, but the rivers on the southern coast of the Crimea are almost no longer reached by the sea, so low debit. I pay special attention that the streams have dried, for example, we have a stream that flows through the walleye up to the beach, for the first time in many years completely dry. This means that the groundwater has gone, even adult trees dry in parallel. But, I would like to point out that rivers and springs dry not only because of the increase of drought and heat, which exceeds the norm by several degrees. A very dangerous trend is the mass development of Crimea and the associated increase in water consumption. Local authorities are forced to increase groundwater production every year, despite the fact that the number of wells is already making the work, ” – said a local historian.
In Crimea, according to experts, the Chernorychensky reservoir has ceased to be filled – the largest source of drinking water for Sevastopol.
“The Simferopol reservoir is only 57%filled, the situation in the guerrilla reservoir is still worse – 26%, Zagorsk also shallowed. Isobilske in Alushta is filled by 42%, Kutuzovsk reservoir, although small (volume of about one million cubic meters of water), but also virtually without water. There are only 34%of water in the Chernorychensky reservoir: the water remained only 34%, ”said Natalia Okhremenko, Head of Hydrology and Hydrological Forecasts of Crimean Department for Hydrometeorology and Environmental Monitoring in Occupied Crimea.
In Simferopol, a critical dehydration of water bodies is observed due to drought, and the state of the Salir River, which is strongly shaken, is particularly concerned.
