Specialists urban economy complex Rehabilitation work has begun on Shibaevsky Pond in the southeast of the capital. This was announced by the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Housing, Utilities, and Improvement. Petr Biryukov.
"Shibaevsky Pond is part of the Kuzminsky Ponds cascade, located on the Churilikha River within the Kuzminki-Lyublino Museum-Reserve. For many years, it has been a favorite recreation spot for local residents, but currently, the pond is in poor condition, with large amounts of silt accumulated at the bottom. Therefore, a decision was made to undertake a comprehensive rehabilitation. We plan to complete the work by the end of this year," said Pyotr Biryukov.
A six-hectare reservoir will be cleared of silt, creating a new bioplateau zone. As part of the project, specialists will remove 23,500 cubic meters of silt deposits using a floating dredger. The water level will be lowered partially, which will not affect the existing ecosystem. An additional bioplateau zone covering 710 square meters will also be created. During the warmer months, over 13,000 aquatic plants will be planted there.
Specialists regularly inspect Moscow's water bodies and, if problems are identified, make decisions about rehabilitation. A list of water bodies is compiled annually, taking into account Muscovites' requests. A total of 19 ponds are scheduled for renovation in 2025.
