Deputy of the Natural Resources Organization: Cutting down live trees of Horkan is prohibited due to floods.
Kamran Purmogadam, Deputy for Forestry Affairs of the Natural Resources and Watershed Organization in the country, in a conversation with Aktazana News:
The mere presence of the flood or the possibility of its occurrence cannot be a reason for harvesting live, upright and healthy trees on the banks of rivers and such an action is prohibited.
The trees that are on the banks of the rivers protect the banks of the stream with their root system and are also effective in reducing flood flows. If these trees are harvested, with the increase of precipitation in the water, the intensity of the destruction of the floods will increase and, by the way, further damage will be caused downstream.
With the approval of the law prohibiting the harvesting of trees from forests and the implementation of the forest breathing plan from 2016, all exploitation of trees from forests was closed.
