The Prosecutor’s office requires Murmanskvodokanal to eliminate illegal discharge of sewage into the Varnichny stream

The October District Court of Murmansk has begun to consider the claim of the environmental prosecutor’s office to GOUP Murmanskvodokanal. The supervisory authority demands to eliminate violations of the legislation on environmental protection. This was reported in the Prosecutor’s office of the Murmansk region.

During the inspection, prosecutors found that the sewer pipe of the enterprise is connected to the closed collector of the Varnichny stream. According to the prosecutor's office, because of this insert, untreated sewage can enter the water body.

Earlier, the company made a proposal to eliminate violations, but it was not executed. The environmental prosecutor then went to court.

The prosecutor's office demands to eliminate the unauthorized insert and stop the flow of untreated drains into the stream. The lawsuit is accepted and the trial continues.

Earlier, “MK in Murmansk” reported that residents of Zapolyarny did not like the dumping of rags on the ground “Murmanskvodokanal”.
