The works on the construction of the sewage network in the village of Lelić near Valjevo were visited by representatives of the company CRBC, a partner in the “Clean Serbia” project. The mayor of Valjevo, Lazar Gojković, expressed his gratitude to the Government of Serbia for including the city in the project.

A delegation of the CRBC company, led by Wang Xuefeng, visited the works on the construction of the sewage network in the village of Lelić near Valjevo. The “Clean Serbia” project envisages the construction of 1,766.80 meters of network, and although work has recently started, 637 meters have been completed so far.

The mayor of Valjevo, Lazar Gojković, says that the sewage network in Lelic is important for several reasons. First of all, there is the Lelić monastery, which houses the relics of Saint Bishop Nikolaj Velimirović and which during are visited by tens of thousands of believers, and the village itself is one of the few in which there are more developed households with farms of different types.

As the mayor of Valjevo stated, a special aspect is the protection of the Rovni hydro reservoir.

“Works on the construction of the sewage network in the village of Lelić through the “Clean Serbia” project are extremely important for the City of Valjevo. In this way, we protect the basin of the rivers that together form the Rovni reservoir. With care that the aculation project envisages the supply of drinking water to more municipalities and Valjevo villages in the future, timely protection is of crucial importance. We are grateful to the Government of Serbia for including the City of Valjevo in the aforementioned program, which not only protects our rivers but also raises the living standards of the people in the countryside,” said Gojković.
