The reason is the continuing decline in water flow despite earlier technical work, the municipal press office said on 27 October 2026.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the municipality, unauthorised interference with the water intake several weeks ago interrupted the natural flow of mineral water. The borehole was then cleaned using the airlift method to a depth of more than <strong>50 metres<\/strong>. Initially, the water reached a temperature of <strong>46\u00b0C<\/strong>, but subsequent monitoring showed that the flow rate was declining again.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because a lasting recovery has not been achieved, the local authority has engaged a hydrogeologist. Part of the investigation is <strong>downhole video inspection<\/strong> \u2014 lowering a video camera into the borehole to assess its condition at depth. The inspection aims to determine why water flow has decreased.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The municipality has not yet announced a definitive diagnosis of the fault or a timetable for restoring normal flow. The next technical measures will be determined after the expert assessment and video inspection. It would therefore be premature to claim that the problem has been resolved.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mineral water is a locally important public resource. The findings of the investigation will help determine how and when the facility can be stabilised.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.svishtov.bg\/hidrogeolozhko-prouchvane-obsledva-namalenia-debit-na-mineralnia-izvor-v-zapadnata-chast-na-svishtov\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Svishtov Municipality, press release dated 27 October 2026.<\/a><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Photo: Svishtov Municipality Press Office (archival\/official image of the facility supplied with the announcement; the date it was taken has not been confirmed).<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Svishtov Municipality has commissioned a hydrogeological survey and downhole video inspection of borehole R-1hg after cleaning failed to restore a stable flow of mineral water.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2016,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_gspb_post_css":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":true,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[3,38,8],"tags":[16],"class_list":["post-2020","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-oblastta","category-obshtestvo","category-polezno","tag-aktualno"],"blocksy_meta":{"styles_descriptor":{"styles":{"desktop":"","tablet":"","mobile":""},"google_fonts":[],"version":8}},"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/5000.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/mineralen-izvor-svishtov-sondazh-prouchvane-obshtina-svishtov.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/5000.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2020","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/5000.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/5000.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/5000.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/5000.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2020"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/5000.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2020\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2042,"href":"https:\/\/5000.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2020\/revisions\/2042"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/5000.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2016"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/5000.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2020"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/5000.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2020"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/5000.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2020"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
