Reconstruction of a dam near the village of Chebal-Su in the Mezhdurechensk urban district of Kuzbass

The government continues to implement measures to develop the water management system and ensure its sustainable operation. Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Patrushev reported on these measures this year.

"In 2025, lake and reservoir environmental rehabilitation activities covered 3,600 hectares. Furthermore, reconstruction of the Yelizavetinskoye Reservoir hydroelectric complex in the Luhansk People's Republic and construction of the Krasnogorsk hydroelectric complex on the Irtysh River in the Omsk Region continued. Twelve engineering infrastructure facilities, totaling over 54 km, were also commissioned. Their construction is aimed at protecting communities home to 63,000 people from flooding. The Russian government has allocated a total of approximately 8 billion rubles for water management development this year," said Dmitry Patrushev.

The Deputy Prime Minister added that approximately 1.3 billion rubles were allocated from the Government's reserve fund for dam construction. This allowed for additional projects to be implemented in the Chechen Republic and Kemerovo Oblast in 2025, while significant work has been completed in Amur Oblast, which will enable the facility to be commissioned in 2026.

At the same time, as part of the "Water of Russia" federal project and the "Environmental Well-Being" national project, the first selections for projects to build new wastewater treatment facilities have been completed. Implementation will begin in 2026. The selected regions include the Chelyabinsk, Kurgan, and Irkutsk regions, as well as the Perm Krai.
