With the implementation by DOO "Regionalni Vodvodst Montenegrinsko primorje", the project for the connection of the municipality of Herceg Novi to the regional water supply system, the first phase of the construction of the regional water supply system was successfully completed, by which all the municipalities of the Montenegrin littoral are connected into one technical-technological unit.
3,2 kilometers of new pipeline and optical infrastructure were built in the territory of the municipality of Tivat, which connected the previously built part of the Regional Water Supply from the 80s to the system (about nine kilometers of pipelines in the territory of the municipality of Herceg Novi, the "Zelenika" reservoir, as well as the underwater pipeline to the Luštica peninsula).
For the implementation of this project, worth 2.100.000 euros, funds were provided by the Regional Waterworks and from EBRD loans.
The implementation of this project created the conditions for the delivery of 200 l/s of high quality water for the area of the Herzegovina Riviera, namely 130 l/s for the part from Sveta Neđelja to Zelenika, and an additional 70 l/s for the part of the Luštica peninsula.
Today, the first volumes of water flowed through the new pipeline towards the municipality of Herzegnov. This is the result of the meeting held on August 16.08.2022, XNUMX. year, in the cabinet of the President of the Municipality of Herceg Novi, Mr. Stevan Katić, which was attended by representatives of Herceg Novi "Vodovod i Kanalizacija" doo and also the President of the Board of Directors Zoran Lakušić, Acting Executive Director of Reginal Vodovodov Borislav Ivanković, as well as Technical Director Ivan Špadijer.
In accordance with the agreement reached at the aforementioned meeting, on August 31 of this year, a contract was signed between DOO "Regionalni vodvodet Montegorsko primorje" Budva and DOO "Vodovod i kanalizacija" Herceg Novi.
50 l/s of water will be delivered to the municipality of Herzegnov, i.e. to the settlements of Bijela and Kamenari, during the period of overhaul of the energy equipment and inspection of the supply tunnel between the hydroelectric power plants on Trebišnjica and Dubrovnik, which will ensure regular water supply in this part of the municipality of Hercegnov.
The Regional Waterworks believes that this is just the beginning of future fruitful and continuous cooperation.
