Dmitry Patrushev and Dmitry Demeshin discussed issues of agriculture and ecology in Khabarovsk Krai.
Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Patrushev met with Khabarovsk Krai Governor Dmitry Demeshin. The meeting focused on agriculture and the environment.
The parties also discussed the progress of the harvest campaign in the region. Dmitry Patrushev emphasized that farmers must be provided with all the necessary materials and equipment to carry out the work.
Particular attention was paid to environmental management issues. Specifically, construction of the new dam in Khabarovsk's Southern District has been completed. This 5.5-kilometer-long hydraulic structure is already fulfilling its primary function: protecting the coastal strip from flooding. The dam ensures the safety of an area home to approximately 200,000 people.
The Khabarovsk Krai Governor stated that the regional government has already developed a concept for the improvement of the site, which includes the creation of a fully-fledged recreation area.
The meeting also reviewed the progress of construction of a complex of protective structures in Komsomolsk-on-Amur. This large-scale project is being built along the banks of the Amur River and its tributaries and consists of three phases. The total length of the linear structures exceeds 28 km.
Dmitry Patrushev and Dmitry Demeshin also discussed the progress of the solid municipal waste management reform in the region. In Khabarovsk Krai, three major infrastructure projects are planned for construction in the coming years.
As part of the national "Ecology" project, work was underway in the region to create a comprehensive solid municipal waste management system and promote reforestation. Over 780 million rubles were allocated for these purposes. This work will be continued under the "Environmental Well-Being" national project, launched this year. Furthermore, attention will be paid to reducing hazardous emissions into the atmosphere.
