Kurgan region and Perm region will receive 700 million rubles for construction and modernization of treatment facilities.
The funds will accelerate the construction of treatment facilities in Tchaikovsky and the rehabilitation of the treatment facilities in Kurgan. New facilities will be equipped with modern equipment, pumping stations will be built and sewage networks will be restored.
The living conditions of millions of our citizens throughout the country and the effective development of areas depend on the implementation of infrastructure projects that improve the ecological condition of the water bodies, stressed Mikhail Meshustin.
This year, within the framework of the federal project "Water of Russia", about 12 billion rubles are allocated for the clearing of rivers, the creation of hydraulic structures and the modernization of service infrastructure. The main goal is to halve the volume of untreated sewage discharged into main bodies of water, as well as to preserve the ecosystem of Lake Baikal.
