Resolution of October 21, 2025 No. 1622
Specialists who have made significant contributions to the development of the hydrometeorological service and achieved significant achievements in scientific, managerial, educational, and pedagogical activities will be recognized with the Yevgeny Konstantinovich Fyodorov Prize (1910–1981). The decree establishing this prize was signed by Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin.
Three prizes, each worth 1 million rubles, will be awarded every three years. The first awards will be presented in 2027.
The awards will be decided based on proposals from a special interdepartmental council, which will be based at the Federal Service for Hydrometeorology and Environmental Monitoring. The nomination competition will begin on April 1 of the year preceding the awards year. The awards ceremony will coincide with Hydrometeorological Service Workers' Day, celebrated on March 23.
Commenting on the decision, Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Patrushev noted that the Russian hydrometeorological service is currently among the top five, and its specialists are implementing unique projects that have no analogues anywhere in the world.
"The Yevgeny Konstantinovich Fyodorov Government Prize will perpetuate the memory of the Soviet geophysicist, polar explorer, and head of the USSR's hydrometeorological service during the Great Patriotic War, who made a significant contribution to Victory. The establishment of such a prize is especially important in the year of its 80th anniversary. I am confident this step will motivate scientists to pursue new achievements and will contribute to strengthening our country's technological leadership," Dmitry Patrushev emphasized.
