21 March 2024, Thursday

With the help of a mobile environmental laboratory, air samples were taken at a point selected taking into account the wind direction, as well as outside the sanitary protection zone of nearby enterprises. According to the results of the study, the maximum permissible concentration of hydrogen sulfide in the atmospheric air was exceeded by 11 times.

It should be noted that to the northeast of the sampling site there is a landfill of MSW on Khimicheskaya Street, operated by LLC UK PZhKH (subject to federal supervision)

Unfavorable meteorological conditions were declared for the sampling period in the territory of Kazan. Despite the presence of emission sources at the landfill, to date, LLC UK PZhKH does not have an agreed action plan to reduce emissions for the period of UMC.

In addition, from March 19 to March 20, an automatic air pollution control station located in the village of Asinovo, an excess of the maximum permissible concentration of hydrogen sulfide in the atmospheric air by 2.05 times was also revealed. 

All information on this fact has been sent to Rosprirodnadzor for response measures.
