Sokol Xhafa, task manager of the chief executive of the Regional Water Company, Pristina, told Radio Free Europe that Kosovo citizens who are supplied with drinking water from Lake Badovci are at risk of providing 24 hours of water for the months of July and beyond.
Over 600 thousand people, according to authorities, supply water from Lake Batlava and Badovci.
The situation at Badovci Lake is serious. Yes, we supply consumers with water as a cause of pandemic, but we have the situation at an alarming level. Never has the water level been lower than it is now. This level of water does not guarantee sustainable supply for July and beyond”, he said.
Currently, Kosovo citizens are supplied by several natural and artificial water resources.
Uyman Lake (Gazioda) at Zubin Potok, Batlava in Podujevo, Badovci in Pristina, Radoniki in Gjakova and Perlepnica in Gjilan, along the Drini White River at the Drin Plains of Dukagjini, Ibrit in Mitrovica, the Morava Binca in Anamorawa, and Lepenc in the south, are some of the main drinking water sources in Kosovo.
