The following are speeches given by specialists on air pollution and water supply of Ulaanbaatar city, and its future conditions.
National Water Center CEO Sh.Ganzorig states: each citizen of Ulaanbaatar has standard to use 450 liters of water per day. It is expected that the standard will reach to 240 thousand liters by 2020. However, water usage is uncontrollable, and there is no new water resource. Increasing water usage is not estimated in the Ulaanbaatar prosperity plan.
Today 40 and 100 thousand household apartments program is being implemented. If construction runs at this speed, water supply which will be used in 2020 is not sufficient enough. Therefore we have to use the “Tuul” river water completely. It is necessary to establish water pools and dike by using underground water flow. If we can do this, water supply would be sufficient to everyone although water usage reaches to 700 thousand cube meters.
Otherwise an issue is concerned whether to draw water from rivers “Orhon” and “Herlen” to Ulaanbaatar or to move the capital to a place where water resources are enough.
The best way to decrease air desiccation and to increase water supply is to set up lakes, water pools, dikes, and ports as the world standards.
“Water Energy” company director, consultative engineer B .Dagvadorj says: a project to build water pool on the river “Tuul” which is the capital’s main water output was planned 20 years ago.
At that time, the number of city population was 3 times smaller than the present number so that it is postponed to found water pool in the “Gachuurt” district.
Although entities and households own water meters nowadays, their water usage increased. It is necessary to establish water pool in the “Gachuurt” district because water pool attaches significance to dampen Ulaanbaatar.
“Water Development” journal editor L.Nyamgotov informs: It is right to maintain policy to direct world tendency into Mongolia. “Khangai”, hilly and forested country with cool climate, shall be dampened firstly so that Gobi desert lakes and ponds will flow spontaneously. In order to reach this, a number of lakes need to be built from time to time.
A study shows that a lake dampens land within 50-100 kilometers. A policy is missed to make people understand the significance of dike construction.
Water place department director, government implementing agency P. Badamdorj: Even specialists except ordinary people do not distinguish clearly the difference between dike and port. A port is used to bind water flow horizontally, and dike is to let water flow along.
A levee is determined that a special wall built to stop water flow from a mountain. There is a plan to build dikes and ports worth 20 million dollars between 2010 and 2020. It is time to consider a issue of increasing water supply at the level of policy.
Sh. Ganzorig says: the main representation of rain, snow and water is a river. A dike can be built on dried place with pebbles in order to water 10 hectares land. Water from snow and rain shall be used like this. Human beings have not found any other ways than establishing port on surface water.
There is some significance to build dikes. First: It is ecologically significant. A dike helps a river flows for months so that the river remains alive. Second: It is economically useful. Anyone can spend money when they have usage. Third: It is socially significant.
An issue raises that how many people’s living condition shall be provided and how it would effect to Mongolian central energy system. In order to specify all of them, to decrease desiccation and to increase water supply, it is urgent to take adequate complex measures that meet policy quality. The waterfall “Ulaan” of “Orhon” river looked like this over 10 years ago.
