Shortly after that, the project on the reconstruction of Valea Morilor Lake was approved via a Government Decision, being defined as a prime importance public project related to the development of the municipality of Chisinau for 2007.

According to the legislation, this zone has the statute of protected zone, where no economic activity damaging the ecologic situation is admitted.
