New Life for Cubolta River: Moldova's Restoration Project
The Ministry of Environment in Moldova will allocate over 17 million Moldovan lei (approximately $950,000) from the Environment Fund for a project to clean and revitalise the Cubolta River in the village of Plop, Dondușeni district.
The funds will be used to clean a 4-kilometre stretch of the riverbed, deepen and strengthen the banks, plant trees, and improve the surrounding area.
Over the past few years, the Cubolta River and its springs have become silted up and overgrown with vegetation. This has had a negative impact on the water quality and the natural beauty of the area.
The Ministry of Environment states that this initiative will enhance the river's functionality.
