Abstract
The article considers the ameliorative condition of the Ararat valley. It presents the main sources that feed the local ground
waters, as well as the annual regime variations of these groundwater levels on the areas of the adjacent irrigated and saline lands,
and fish farm ponds. The author indicates the role of the horizontal drains in formation of these regimes, and the factual data
prove their regular cleaning necessity. Suggestions are given for partial and fundamental improvement of the valley ameliorative
condition.
