Accumulation of water in most of the reservoirs of the Crimean Peninsula higher than in 2014, something where the reduction occurs due to the transfer of water to the East of the Peninsula, said Fins news Director Department of state policy and regulation in the field of water resources Ministry of Russia Dmitry Kirillov.

EMERCOM of Russia informed before, on the rivers of the Crimea during the summer-autumn period remained low water content, which in the reservoirs of Sevastopol, Kerch, Sudak, Feodosia and Leninsky district recorded low levels and limited water supply to the population.

"for the current date in most of the reservoirs store water even higher than last year. Needless to say, the situation with water supply in Crimea heavy and requires the development of groundwater and restoration of utilities, which are already underway. But this problem will be resolved and the Crimea will be supplied with water, as well as among them for drinking water supply, " said Kirillov.

according to his statement, the content of a number of natural reservoirs of the Crimea is about 90% of the past year. The individual reservoirs involved in the filling of reservoirs, at their expense water thrown in Kerch, Feodosia and Sudak that were formerly supplied with water via the North-Crimean canal.

"If this transfer had not existed, we would store water even higher than last year in natural reservoirs," added Kirillov.

As before said the Director of the water Department, the problem of providing Sebastopol fresh water is now completely resolved, and the entire Peninsula will be resolved before the end of 2015.

Ukraine provided up to 85% of the needs of the Crimea in fresh water via extending from the Dnieper North-Crimean canal, this water was used for irrigation of farmland. After the annexation of Crimea to Russia the water flow through the channel was completely stopped. Not all the problem turned out to be resolved After transferring water from the Crimean river Biyuk-Karasu in the North-Crimean canal, and also due to the drilling of new wells.
