The project
Golëm is part of the Kurvelesh region and lies in its south-western part. It is the most remote and the highest village of Gjirokastra, at an altitude of over 1,100 m above sea level. Golëm has had problems with electricity, while the lack of water is permanent and makes survival in the village difficult.
The project, financed by AKUM, aims to improve the quality and the sustainability of the water supply. It comprises: the construction of the new main line, 1,321 m long, HDPE DE 90 PN10; the construction of the new distribution network, 3,224 m long; the construction of two new reservoirs with a capacity of 50 m³ each, one in the north-west and the other in the south-east of the area, as well as the pumping station near the reservoir to the south-east of Vezhisht; the construction of the access roads to both reservoirs; and the rehabilitation of the existing Vezhisht reservoir and pumping station.
For the supply of the area with 210 inhabitants, two scenarios were alternated: the source being the existing reservoir near the Vezhisht stream together with the intake works, or the existing chamber to the north-west of the village which takes water from the Vezhisht river.
