Today we presented two projects. One of them is a pilot project to improve the Kazanka River. The project is very popular, because we have more than 36 thousand water bodies in the republic and today we are responsible for them to the future generation." Alexander Shadrikov stressed that using the example of the Kazanka River, this project can be broadcast to other reservoirs of the country, because everyone has typical problems.

As of today, as part of the first stage, the contractor has begun work on conducting geographical research. In order to obtain up-to-date information on the qualitative and quantitative composition of the surface waters of the Kazanka River and its tributaries of the 1st order, a schedule for water sampling, composition and scope of research has been coordinated. During the main phase of the spring flood, daily sampling was carried out at three sites. According to the results of daily monitoring of Kazanka pollution, it was found that during the spring flood, the content of pollutants that are part of fertilizers for agriculture increases many times. Currently, the work of the first stage continues.
