Resumen

The Code makes provision for the use and protection of water resources. Article 1 gives the main definitions and concepts used in the Code. "Water objects" are the earth's surface and undergroundwaters, which may be natural or artificial. "Waters are a State property and are given only for use" (art. 3). Articles 5 to 8 provide for tasks and powers of the state administration with regard to water use and protection. The powers of the government specified in article 5 shall be formulated and determined in the National Water Program. Articles 9 to 14 outline requirements and terms with respect to the design, siting, construction and putting into operations of "enterprises, installations and other objects that affect water quality", including those in "waterside belts" defined in article 13. Articles 15 to 69 contain detailed provisions for the use of water, including the use of groundwater and use of water for wildlife purposes. Articles 70 to 75 regulate the resolving of disputes over water use. Articles 76 to 86 provide for the protection of water resources against pollution and other activities which have an adverse impact of water. Articles 87 to 90 contain provisions with respect to registration of water use. The remaining provisions of this Law define liability for the violation of water legislation and article 96 establishes the precedence of rules of international agreements to which Armenia is a party over rules of this Code. (96 articles divided into 6 Parts)
