The company selected in the tender presented the Initiation Report for the Water Reservoir in The Kike – Kremenata system (Kamenica Dam).
The project in question, which is financed through a loan from World Bank and implemented by the Ministry of Environment, Infrastructure and Spatial Planning, is vital to address water supply needs, flood control, and other challenges related to water resources management.

The idea for the study of this project stemmed from the Master Water Plan and the document
Kosovo Water Hydro economics of 1985 and other strategic water documents. Based on the terrain topography and terrain reconnaissance in the Desivojca River Basin, three alternative sites for the realization of a water reservoir were identified: Kremenate, Desivojce, and Hogosht.
