6/24/2010

Cementarnica USJE AD Skopje has ongoing cooperation with the Municipality of Kisela Voda in projects of social interest, particularly in promotion of the environment and assistance to the local residents.

Thus, Cementarnica USJE AD Skopje together with the Municipality has launched an initiative and started activities on covering the Usje Canal in length of 800 meters starting from Usje village to the bridge on Boris Trajkovski in the suburb of Lisice.

To this end, Cementarnica USJE AD Skopje, as a donation to the Municipality, has provided the design of the main project for closing of Usje Canal.

The goal of this project is to solve the long-standing problem of the local residents caused by the open canal that, in addition to the atmospheric water, receives other exhaust and fecal water from the surrounding facilities. The closing of the canal will eliminate the unpleasant odor and the threats to the health and safety of the residents.

The project includes installation of reinforced concrete pipes with diameter of 1900 mm in the bed of the canal itself and their covering with ground. The ground surface over the existing canal will be subjected to horticultural arrangement and used as a walking path.
