Russian Minister for North Caucasus, Lev Kuznetsov, believes that there is a need to revive an environmental expertise of the sites, which are under construction and reconstruction in the resort areas, Interfax reports on Friday.
“According to our assessment, it’s necessary to raise a question of environmental expertise of the facilities, which are subject to reconstruction and construction in the resort areas, as it was established for specially protected natural sites,” said Kuznetsov at a session of the State Council presidium on the subject of improving investment attractiveness of a sanitary and resort complex of Russia.
The Minister reminded that the requirement to conduct such assessment had existed until the year 2014, but then it was annulled.
