U.S. Assistance Helps Improvement of Water Distribution in Arilje
The official opening of a newly constructed water reservoir in Arilje will
be held on Saturday, September 24, 2005, at 14:00. The construction of this
essential object was made possible by the American people through the United
States Agency for International Development (USAID) via the Community Revitalization
through Democratic Action (CRDA) program, implemented in western Serbia by
International Relief and Development (IRD).
The construction of a water reservoir capacity 1,000 m3 is a part of a project
called „Water Supply Extension and Improvements in Arilje,“ which includes
the installation of a pumping station at the existing reservoir, connection
to the existing pipeline system, and construction of a water main from new
reservoir to main distribution system.
Thanks to this improvement, villages upstream Moravica River (Pogled, Vigoste,
Latvica, Stupcevici, Mirosaljci, Tresnjevica and Dragojevac) will finally
be connected to the main water distribution system. Prior to the new improvements,
these villages had a local water distribution connected to groundwater wells
only, which contained undisinfected water; supply shortages during dry seasons
were very common. The project will provide a reliable water system for households
and farms involving approximately 7,000 persons. For the improvement and
extension of water supply system in Arilje, USAID contributed $181.690 of
a total value of $302,179, while the municipality Arilje provided the remaining
amount.
The project will be opened jointly by Arilje Mayor Zoran Micovic and IRD
Director, Jesse Bunch. Journalists interested in covering the opening ceremony
should arrive at the water reservoir site no later than 13:45, on Saturday,
September 24, 2005.

SAD pomogle unapređenje vodosnabdevanja u Arilju
Otvaranje novoizgrađenog rezervoara za vodu u Arilju održaće se u
subotu, 24. septembra 2005. godine sa početkom u 14:00 časova. Izgradnju ovog veoma
važnog objekta omogućio je američki narod kroz Američku agenciju za međunarodni
razvoj (USAID), preko Programa revitalizacije zajednice putem demokratske
akcije (CRDA), koji u zapadnoj Srbiji sprovodi USAID-ov partner organizacija
IRD.
Izgradnja rezervoara za vodu kapaciteta 1.000 m3 deo je projekta „Unapređenje
sistema vodosnabdevanja u Arilju“, koji se takođe sastoji i od instalacije
2 pumpe sa armaturom na već postojećem rezervoaru, povezivanja na postojeći
cevovod i konstrukcije dovoda od novog rezervoara do glavnog sistema.
Zahvaljujući ovim radovim sela uzvodno od reke Moravica (Pogled, Vigošte,
Latvica, Stupčevići, Mirosaljci, Trešnjevica i Dragojevac) će najzad biti
povezana na glavni vodovod. Pre izgradnje novih delova sistema, pomenuta
sela bila su povezana na lokalne bunare iz kojih se crpela voda neispitanog
kvaliteta, a slab pritisak u toku letnje sezone bio je veoma česta pojava.
Ovaj projekat će obezbediti pouzdano snabdevanje vodom za oko 7.000 novih
korisnika.
Za unapređenje i proširenje sistema vodosnabdevanja u Arilju, USAID je uložio
181.690 američkih dolara, od ukupno 302.179 dolara koliko je koštao ceo projekat,
dok je opština Arilje obezbedila ostatak novca.
Projekat će zajedno otvoriti gradonačelnik Arilja, Zoran Mićović, i direktor
IRD-a za zapadnu Srbiju, Džesi Banč (Jesse Bunch). Pozivamo zainteresovane
novinare da prisustvuju otvaranju novoizgrađenog rezervoara u subotu, 24.
septembra 2005. godine sa početkom u 14:00.
