After the pump was replaced, the residents of the village near Kirov were left with brown water.
The problem has affected residents of Komsomolskaya and Pervomayskaya streets. This includes about 20 houses where pensioners and families with children live. People report that the water from the tap has turned brown, with a mixture of sand. Not only the residents themselves are afraid to use it for drinking — even household livestock are not given such water.
The village has more than 400 residents, and the water comes from three wells. According to local residents, the problems began after a broken pump was replaced at one of the wells.
The situation is complicated by the fact that there are almost no alternative sources of water. The old wells have long been abandoned after the centralized water supply was established. The only water column in the village is also practically useless — it lacks a handle. During all this time, the delivery of drinking water has not been organized.
Now people have to ask neighbors from other streets for water. Some carry heavy buckets for more than a kilometer. Those who cannot walk independently are helped by relatives and fellow villagers with cars.
After residents' appeals, the People's Front got involved in the situation. Public activists sent a request to the administration of the Opalinsky district. They explained that the well had become clogged with sand and needed to be flushed. According to officials, the necessary materials have already been purchased, and the work should be carried out today.
The People's Front added: if the repairs are delayed and people still do not have drinking water delivered, they will send an appeal to the prosecutor's office.
