The Stavropol Governor's report on water main repairs has sparked skepticism among local residents.

Stavropol Krai Governor Vladimir Vladimirov reported on his Telegram channel about repairs to a more than six-kilometer-long water pipeline in the Novoaleksandrovsk district, which supplies water to the administrative center, the city of Novoaleksandrovsk.

The water pipeline repair will help resolve the issue of low water pressure in the northern part of Novoaleksandrovsk. Residents of this area have long faced water shortages, especially in the summer. Once the repairs are completed, the situation will improve significantly. About two thousand families will receive a reliable water supply, the governor reported.

This post on Vladimir Vladimirov's Telegram channel, which has over 147,300 subscribers, had garnered 54 likes and 39 comments as of 6:30 AM Moscow time on June 13.

"When are you going to fortify the village of Nizhnyaya Aleksandrovka in the Mineralovodsky District? It's been eight days without a drop of water. The water utility isn't answering the phone, and a barrel has appeared once in three days. What kind of chaos is this?" – Bateeva wrote.

"Water is delivered based on customer requests to the Mineralovodskoye PTP dispatch service, on a first-come, first-served basis, with the availability of specialized transport and specialists," the State Unitary Enterprise of the Stavropol Kraivodokanal SK responded.

"And when will you improve the water supply in the Levokumsky District? Year after year, in the summer, most of the village of Levokumskoye is without water; they only give it an hour in the morning, sometimes at lunchtime and in the evening, with very weak pressure. Because everyone starts watering their gardens with drinking water, since there is no technical water, and the water simply doesn't reach many houses. People dig wells themselves, buy pumps (which increases electricity consumption), and sometimes even the pumps don't help. The local Vodokanal shrugs, saying the equipment is heavily worn out. The regional one reports that everything is fine. And then there are just formal replies. And this is the eastern district of the region, it "It's very dry, with 45 degrees and above in the summer. It's impossible without water. But who cares? Everything's fine on paper," noted user M.O.A..

"Good afternoon! When will they start issuing technical specifications for water connections in the village of Nadezhda in the Shpakovsky District? There's been no water in the house for two years," wrote Roman Anohin.

"The city of Yessentuki, the storm drains aren't cleaned, they're all clogged with trash and dirt! Then we wonder why the city drowns in the rain," noted user MEM.

"If people talked about the problems more often, maybe they'd start solving them," said Lenuska 26.

"If only it worked like that, alas," she replied. Nastya.
