More than 30 tons of common mineral resources (sand) were illegally mined by a resident of the Mikhailovka village in the Almetyevskiy district. Unlicensed subsoil use was discovered by inspectors of the South-Eastern Territorial Administration of the Ministry of Ecology and Natural Resources of the Republic of Tatarstan during a raid on active and “wild” quarries. According to this fact, the violator was brought to administrative responsibility in accordance with Part 1 of Article 7.3 of the Administrative Code of the Russian Federation, and also filed a claim for damages.
