Bowl patience

Who will clean up for unique lakes
Not the first summer "RG" beats concern about violations of environmental safety in the resort area of Khakassia. Results of regular verification of the Republican prosecutors once again proved disappointing.
Lake Bele, Itkul, Shira, Tus, Matarak called the jewels of Khakassia. Their healing properties are known to the whole Russia. Only now "cut" from these inappropriate jewelry - heaps of garbage lie here for years.
In the weekend "on water" move tens of thousands of machines from the Krasnoyarsk region and neighbouring regions. Most tourists prefer to relax the "savages". However, the quotes in this case can be removed: noisy company leaves behind kostrischa, to trample down the grass, mountains clutter. As a result - not a single clean room for tents, and dispersion of wind on water bottles and plastic bags with many landfills.
-- Throughout the shows immigrants - people secured, culturally same do not know how to behave - concludes the district administration officer Vladimir Dmitriev.
-- And why on the banks do not arrange special containers? -- Correspondent asked "WP".
-- So they immediately stolen! Yes and means for the export of waste in our budget may not, and we collect tourists with no one would allow.
At Assistant District Attorney Natalia Ignatovoy different opinion:
-- Federal law stipulates that the organization places for garbage collection are the responsibility of local government. A mechanism and replenish coffers for the implementation of environmental activities, including waste management. It is an administrative fines. Since nezakonoposlushnyh citizens who emit debris or burn it outside the established places, you can recover from 100 to 500 rubles, with corporate clients - ranging from one to five thousand.
However, according to the preliminary results of regular checks, "a set of" major violations does not change in the lake edge for years. Places to landfills, as before, with the sanitary-epidemiological surveillance, no one agrees. No permits are neither executive nor zemleotvodnyh documents.
Back in 2006, the Supervisory Authority filed a lawsuit against the community leader, accusing him of unwillingness to take measures to eliminate domestic and dump garbage man near the village of Pearl. Natural emerged a decade and a half ago, a few kilometres from the reserved Itkul Lake - the main provider of drinking water in the resort village - it is grown and has become a potential source of epidemics.
The court then ordered local authorities to eliminate the site, but the decision was enforced only through the year and a half, and under pressure from prosecutors.
-- Landfill moved, in its place are conducted remediation work - assured "RG" Shirinskogo district head Sergei Zaitsev. -- Import of debris is prohibited, is now negotiating with entrepreneurs engaged. So far, only protects against the gate of a nearby resort reserve "Khakas".
-- I am ready to pay for basic amenities - shared with "RG" krasnoyarets Oleg Kirchenko. -- To pay?

Commentary
Vladimir Shupik,
Head of Regional Administration Federal Service for Supervision in the area of environmental management:
-- Without a doubt, the responsibility for the state of the local administration bears the resort municipality. The problem is not one year, and the lack of funds - not an excuse. It has long had to connect and republican government. The unique nature, floodplains need urgent, effective protection.
