Siemianówka reservoir is draining the Narew river — ecologists demand it be reduced

The Siemianówka reservoir, originally built to irrigate farmland in the Narew valley, is now blamed for drastically lowering the water level of the Narew river. Ecologists are calling for the reservoir to be reduced in size, but local municipalities and tourism entrepreneurs oppose the move, arguing the lake attracts visitors to the Upper Narew Valley. Experts warn the river may dry up without intervention.
