Nothing sacred: In Sergeev Posad, a lake of sewage spilled near an Orthodox temple.
In Sergeev Posad, near the walls of the Getshman Chernigov Monastery - one of the central temples of the Moscow region - a pond with sewage drainage appeared. People come here for kindness and peace, but what they get is a foul smell.
The pipes in the 80% area are worn out. People have been writing to the Ministry of Ecology for years; Public activists found discharges into the ponds as early as 2020. Last winter, the rector met with officials and agreed to replace 60 meters of pipes. Judging by the fact that the sewage again spilled into the pool, the matter did not go away from things.
And in the whole district the same picture. In March, a pressure cooker broke out in Bogorodskoye. In September, at 40 Tan Lauktiabria Street, drains flowed like a fountain for two days in a row, blocking the passage. And the collector in the Perma microdistrict completely collapsed - a new pipe had to be laid. The authorities report each time "plans to replace the nets", but the smell in the temple remains.
The previous head of the district, Oksana Yerukova, was asked to leave - she wrote a statement "at the request" from above and was left without a new position. Alexei Luzhetsky, who replaced her, sits calmly in his chair: no comment from him, no departure, no instructions. The new head believes that if you don't pay attention to the problem, it will resolve itself.
