Pervomaisk Mayor Oleh Demchenko said that the funds are «bonus» financing from NEFCO.

«Due to the fact that we work very well with the international organisation NEFCO, we were additionally given a bonus for the 10-kilometre water supply main from the WTP-1 to Kyivska Street», commented Oleh Demchenko.

The project will be overseen by the City Council's Standing Committee on Housing, Transport, Environment and Amenities.

It should be noted that the construction of a new water treatment plant OSV-1 is currently underway in Pervomaisk. The construction is being carried out in partnership with the Nordic Environment Finance Corporation (NEFCO).

The metal structures of the future building have already been erected, part of the foundations and tanks have been installed, and concrete and earthworks are underway. Specialised machinery is working at the site, and contractors are preparing the area for equipment installation.
