The national project "Ecology" is designed for the period from 2019 to 2024
In his speeches, Russian President Vladimir Putin repeatedly emphasized that in Russia it is necessary to ensure high standards of environmental well-being. “Throughout Russia, we must ensure high standards of environmental well-being. It is difficult to talk about a long, healthy life if millions of people are still forced to drink water that does not meet the standards ...” Thus, by 2024, within the framework of the Ecology national project, it is planned to increase the share of the population of Tatarstan provided with high-quality drinking water up to 97.9%. In the same year, the start of construction and installation works on the reconstruction of the water intake in Bolgar at the Spassky district is expected. It should be noted that in addition to the federal program, which launched this year, the Government of the Republic annually allocates about 650 million rubles for similar purposes annually. For another event of the Ecology national project - the Volga Health project, in 2019 it is planned to implement 8 facilities, including wastewater disposal in the village of Krasnyi Bor, Zainsk, Elabuga, Kazan, Tetyushy and in the urban-type settlement Alekseevskoye. This was announced on Tuesday at a briefing in the Government House by Irek Fayzullin, the Minister of Construction, Architecture, Housing and Communal Services of the Republic of Tatarstan.
