Maliq HPP/ Protesting residents win, investor withdraws from project that takes water from 5 villages

Residents of 5 villages in the Gora area of ​​Maliq protested yesterday against the construction of a hydroelectric power plant, opposing the taking of water from streams, as they are left without irrigation for agricultural lands. In the protest they were supported by environmentalist Sazan Guri and lawyers Brizida Gjikondi and Evi

" He will take the water, I have the land, I won't let him. Let him dry me up and win? Everyone is against it. We won't let him take that water according to his wishes. He will lead us into fratricide, I won't let him ," the residents said.

In support of the residents, environmentalist Sazan Guri has described the project as an intervention that severely damages the environment.

" Residents are protesting because the 4 streams that have connected life will be put into pipes. A man who has neither greenery nor ecology, why does he love life? When there is no water for the lands. He has reserves for the lands, he will not have it. They don't even leave goat urine, they are so greedy ," said Guri.

Faced with opposition, investor Eri Agolli said he would abandon the initial project and build the dam on the Plovisht and Bickë streams.

" They are the residents of Kolanec and Goca, I gave up on that option. With a notarial deed, with everything, I want to do the Plovisht and Bickës stream. We are doing the environmental permit and the things that need to be done. I agree with the Bickës and Gjyras project, where there are objections, I gave up. I will continue it, but with changes ," said Agolli.

The Lezha Court rejected the Prosecutor's Office's request to dismiss the case regarding the Kaçinari hydroelectric power plants in Mirdita. The lawsuit was filed by residents, who claim that the 4 hydroelectric power plants are damaging their properties and water sources.

The prosecution is now expected to investigate the state institutions that granted permits to the company "Shpërdhaza-Energji", with administrator Fatjon Hoxha.
