Investments have to be only green

As observers note, the International ecological forum "The nature without borders" is the only platform of similar level in all territory Far East and Siberia. Chapter Ministry of Natural Resources and Ecology of the Russian Federation Sergey Donskoy, addressing with welcome speech to participants of a forum, emphasized that Primorsky territory – not only the most beautiful region of our country, but also a point of economic growth Far East. The richest natural resources, favorable geographical arrangement promote attraction of investments in region economy. But any large investment projects demand introduction of modern technologies, reducing negative impact on environment, the minister noted. In his opinion, toughening of responsibility for ecological offenses, introduction of the best available technologies and modern mechanisms of the address with waste, increase of level of ecological culture in society has to become a result of carrying out Year of ecology.

"It is convinced that with your help we will be able … to see the collected problems under a new point of view and to offer new ways of their decision for increase of ecological quality of life to Russian Federation", – the head of Ministry for Protection of the Environment and Natural Resources noticed.

with

Within a forum five main round tables on subjects of ecologically focused growth of economy, developments monitoring environment, developments Especially protected natural territories, prospects of ensuring ecological safety settlements and ecological education worked.

I again about coal

In the performances participants of a forum paid attention that recently anthropogenous impact on environment considerably increased. So, the problem of a coal dust became one of subjects of discussion. As noted acting, it concerned the population practically all seaports Primorsky territory, as well as Far East. Though the stevedoring companies also have the ecological programs, but for reaction of the population it is visible that people consider these programs insufficient. Executive power publicly declared more than once Primorsky territory were applied and that these ports were out of settlements", – the first vice governor Vasily Usoltsev emphasized, speaking at the plenary session which has opened a forum.

K told by the deputy of chapter Primorsky territory the director Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Protection of the Primorsky Territory Korshenko Alexander added the story that already becomes in the region for a solution. So, the stevedoring companies buy systems of dust suppression and special equipment, protect coal warehouses with concrete designs …

Representing interests of inhabitants Primorsky territory in State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation the deputy Nikolaeva Victoria emphasized that initially the majority of ports at us were not intended for transfer of raising dust freights, and today each stevedoring company independently makes the decision on the dust suppression device, working from the financial opportunities. However, in her opinion, it is not enough of one it: "The system … better to prevent environmental problems has to be built, than then to eliminate their consequences. We have to change essentially approach in nature protection work, displace accents, having made priorities health of inhabitants, purity of water, air, the soil, civilized methods of maintaining businesses. Businessmen have to understand that to endow interests of ecology in a pursuit of profit is inadmissible".

according to the director Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Protection of the Primorsky Territory Korshenko Alexander, in ports already appear systems of dust suppression and special equipment, work on a protection of coal warehouses is conducted by concrete designs. Is in the region there are at all positive examples of the organization of work on coal transfer. So, in many respects, unique, on observance of measures of ecological safety representatives of East port shared the experience with participants of a forum. The largest specialized and hi-tech terminal in Wrangel's bay is equipped with the most modern equipment which is effectively protecting the nature – air, the water area and the surrounding territory from a coal dust.

"The enterprise arrangement in an industrial zone, in the distance from buildings, allows port to raise and develop. In this regard, in 2012 the East Port Joint-stock company decision, under the direction of LLC "Upravlyayushchaya portovaya company", is made on terminal expansion. Building of the third turn of the coal terminal taking into account all international standards and technologies on nature protection actions" is begun, – the environmental engineer of JOINT-STOCK COMPANY "VOSTOCHNY PORT" Maslakova Galina told.

the Representative of the enterprise noted that features of freight were considered initially, even at design of East port. In its territory on the way structures wind-shelter constructions are established. Then coal pour out from cars in the closed building where powerful systems of dust suppression and an air filtration work.
"Getting on a vagonooprokidyvatel, coal is unloaded taking into account creation of dry fog. The melkodispersny water dust which shrouds coal during its transfer" is applied, – the environmental engineer explained.
A work at ground storages the systems of an irrigation creating on a surface of coal protective "crust". In the winter "change" is taken up by the snow cannons developing snow for dust suppression. Besides, in port collect sewage which pass through cleaning system where the latest technology a multilevel filtration is applied. All this provides collecting a surface water, without allowing their hit in sea waters. And not incidentally Wrangel's bay is considered one of the purest in the gulf Veliky Petr. One more direction of ecological activity of dockers East – completion of bioresources. At the enterprise in recent years grew up and let out in waters of the Sea of Japan tens of millions whitebaits of fishes, thresh a comb and a trepang.

However the problem of coal concerns

not only one Primorsky territory. "Coal raises dust on all sites of movement from getters to the end user. Our task — to eliminate these violations, having adjusted interdepartmental and interregional cooperation. The legislative solution of a question" is necessary also, – the vice-president of the Russian national committee of assistance to the Program of United Nations on environment Usov Victor noted.

the Balance of developments economy and preservations of the nature

Results of performance by Far East subjects of Federation located in the basin of Amur, strategy of developments systems of the Especially Protected Natural Territories (EPNT) at a forum "The nature without borders" presented to

WWF. Especially protected territories cover 11,9% of the territory of the Amur ecoregion, these are 15,1 million hectares. In only Far East 17 reserves, 7 national parks, 8 federal and 79 regional wildlife areas, 6 natural parks, 6 ecological corridors, 2 water and marsh grounds.

As the honourable adviser of the Amur branch of WWF and the Honored ecologist noted Russian Federation Darman Youri, in the south Far East is created unique scientifically reasonable and the OOPT representative network. Especially the expert emphasized progress Primorsky territory which Far East fulfilled obligations Russian Federation on the Convention on biodiversity preservation.

"In Primorsky territory in 2007 created the first in Far East national parks "Call of a tiger" and "The Udege legend". In 2012 it was succeeded to execute "impracticable mission" – the uniform federal OOPT "Earth of a Leopard" which has taken under protection of 65 percent of habitats of the most rare cat of a planet – a Far East leopard is created! Also it worked well only thanks to support of Administration of the Primorsky Territory and Government of the Russian Federation. And in 2015 the national park "Bikin" taking into account preservation of traditional environmental management of Udege and their participation in OOPT comanaging" is organized, – Darman Youri reminded.

to development Questions Especially protected natural territories at a forum lit a separate round table where work of the marikulturny farms created in borders of nature sanctuaries in gulfs of Posyet, in Expedition bays, Novgorod, Raid the Pallada, and also on priostrovny water areas in the gulf Veliky Petr became one of hot topics. Last year at these farms problems began, there was a question of an admissibility of occupation marikultury in especially protected territories.

the Head of the Center of an aquaculture and coastal bioresources of National scientific center of sea biology of DVO RAN Maslennikov Sergei declared that only from business executives who "is terribly interested" in purity of water areas – akvafermer.
"Introduction of a security zone, nature sanctuaries in the form of islands is, of course, well, but such decision has to be absolutely weighed and be based only on facts in evidence, instead of on statements that it is good (or it is bad). I do not consider that farms pasturable marikultury in a security zone cause though any proved damage. Pasturable marikultura in principle cannot cause damage because it is based on recultivation of biotopes. At us all biotopes in a coastal zone are destroyed also only who restores them, are farms pasturable marikultury". whether

during discussion at the director Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Protection of the Primorsky Territory took an interest, prepare at the request of the acting the governor Tarasenko Andrey new amendments to a mode of special protection of sea OOPT. The head of department Korshenko Alexander answered that the mechanism of modification of normative legal acts is discussed for a long time. "Including we have a big correspondence with the Ministry of natural resources about it. We speak a little about other problem: not to resolve or forbid there fishing or marikulturu and what to do with the nature sanctuary, which purpose of creation absolutely another? Resolving, or forbidding something, we change the purpose of creation of a monument", – he noted.

Of a year by a century

Interlocutors of our weekly almost unanimously said that the forum outgrew for today the borders. So, Nikolaeva Victoria considers that "Without borders" for a long time it is time for nature to move to a federal level.

In turn, Darman Youri noted: "Unfortunately, it turned out so that East economic forum delayed attention of the top officials of the state and governors from long ago already existing specialized platform on environmental issues – the International forum "The nature without borders". As a result its level gradually falls, the subject is narrowed only to problems Primorsky territory. I think, it would be reasonable to combine it with the annual festival "Day of a Tiger" – that before the general holiday and a carnival to carry out "The nature without borders" as its scientific and expert component. Thus to concentrate on biodiversity preservation, and questions of waste, technologies, to transfer businesses to annual VEF".

It agrees with the stated remarks and Korshenko Alexander, in his opinion, the forum needs further development: "We need to combine efforts on the solution of the international environmental problems, with use of renewables, involvement in economic circulation of secondary resources. For this purpose ecological modernization of all types of economic activity and environmental management, preservation of biological diversity, strengthening of interaction of government bodies with the scientific and public ecological organizations, ecological education of the population are of particular importance. It is remarkable that reports on a number of problems were made by young scientists and students, teachers and journalists, representatives of travel agencies. Our forum is significant that passed in the declared President of the Russian Federation "Year of ecology". Now it is time to pass of a Year of ecology to an Eyelid of ecology".
