The nature of the Fisherman and the Middle was discussed at the public council. Northerners and tourists were given advice on behavior in the territory
A meeting of the public council was held in Murmansk. It was conducted by the Murmansk Interdistrict Environmental Prosecutor. The topic was compliance with legislation on lands of specially protected natural territories of regional importance. It was about the natural park "Fisherman and Middle Peninsula". Experts also reminded about the rules for tourists in the park.
The reason was a prosecutor's check. In areas that tourists love, found natural landfills. The deputy Murmansk Interdistrict Environmental Prosecutor named four tourist companies. They did business with irregularities and littered protected land. In addition, it turned out that there are no places for garbage collection, waste removal and water disposal are not organized. At the same time, there are no fewer tourists: since the beginning of the year, almost 70,000 people have visited the specially protected area of the park.
After the inspection, prosecutorial response measures were taken. The submissions were received by the Ministry of Natural Resources and Ecology of the Murmansk region, the administration of the Kola district and the economic entities themselves.
The meeting was attended by representatives of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Ecology of the Murmansk Region, the GOKU “Directorate of PAs”, the regional public organization “Kola Wildlife Conservation Center”, the North Sea Territorial Administration of Rosrybolovstvo and the tourism business.
The participants discussed the problem areas and agreed on how to preserve the unique ecosystems of the peninsulas together. Some of the problems are already closed. Tour operators, ready for dialogue, recognize that much has to be solved on their own. Compliance with the special protection regime and the requirements of legislation in the field of tourism remain under the control of the environmental prosecutor's office.
Natural Park "Fishermen and Middle Island" has regional significance. To preserve its nature, tourists should remember a few rules.
Any tourist activity is possible only with permission. Going on a hike, excursion or other event, issue a permit in the management institution of the park.
Parking is allowed only in designated areas. It is impossible to set up a camp where it is not provided for.
Garbage in the park is prohibited to leave and hoard.
Nature should be treated carefully: do not damage plants, do not disturb animals, do not disturb natural complexes.
It is important to understand that the fact that you are in the park does not give you the right to break up a tourist parking lot.
