Over the past five years, the coverage of the population with a centralized water supply in the Khorezm region has increased from 52.1 to 85.5%, and by the end of this year, this figure is planned to increase to 90%.
The region plans to reconstruct the Pitnak water treatment plant with the goal of doubling its capacity to 400 thousand cubic meters. The cost of construction work is estimated at $50 million.
