Bosnia: Lake Jablanica disappeared, ecologists protest
South of Sarajevo, public electricity company is being accused
06 February, 20:11After Elektroprivreda, Bosnian state-owned electricity company, by raising the dam of the nearby power station, made the water flow south and the other two hydroelectric power stations at Salakovac and Grabovica, the lake has disappeared and many nvironmentalists declared an ''ecological disaster'' and the total loss of flora and fauna. Elektroprivreda issued a statement today, denying responsibility, and attributed what happened to drought and extreme cold weather in January, which imposed an increase in electricity production, and announced that the water level has grown 5 metres in the last days.
Elektroprivreda also recalled that similar conditions also occurred in 2012, without affecting the fish stocks of the lake.(ANSA).
