Violation of the rules for temporary storage of waste and soil contamination with oil products was allowed by the organization engaged in receiving ferrous metal scrap. “The area of the enterprise is 1,800 square meters: where about 1,300 meters are concreted, but there is also garbage on the ground”, said environmentalists. Also, in order to assess the harm caused to nature, environmentalists took samples of the soil near the concreted site. Result of the analysis showed a significant excess of the oil content relative to the background concentration. State inspectors drew up protocols on administrative violations on this fact,. The company faces a fine of 400 thousand to 700 thousand rubles. In addition, an administrative investigation is underway.
