“Spetsavtobaza” – the main garbage operator in the Sverdlovsk region – for years underestimated data on the number of accumulated waste at the North Key ground. Such uncontrolled waste buried could cause a three -day fire at the training ground.

The Severnaya training ground is the only landfill where all the garbage from Yekaterinburg is exported, where more than 1.5 million people live. The waste on Severny began to store waste in 1982. According to the documentation, the maximum capacity of the landfill is 22.5 million tons. In 2016, Severny was already filled by 82% – more than 18 million tons of garbage were stored on it. And taking into account the average occupancy of the landfill In 2024, its capacity limit was already exhausted by 100%.

However, later Spetsavtobaza reduced these numbers. In the reporting for the Ministry of Natural Resources, the leadership of Spetsavtobaza indicated that in 2022, 16 million tons of garbage were supposedly located at the training ground. On the papers of the “special -aircraft” it turned out that From 2016 to 2022, garbage at the training ground was allegedly not added. On the contrary – over the years waste at the training ground Somehow it became less than 2 million tons.

Apparently, the leadership of the “Spetsavtobaza” underestimated statistics on the amount of accumulated debris in order to artificially extend the life of the landfill until 2030. After all, the Sverdlovsk authorities still have no answer to the question: where, in addition to the overflowing Severnoye training ground, export waste from Yekaterinburg?

What caused a three -day fire at the Severny training ground is still officially unknown, but it was precisely Self -combustion may be one of the consequences of the overwhelming up of the garbage training ground.

The decision of the garbage crisis in the Sverdlovsk region (and especially in Yekaterinburg) is one of the key challenges facing the new head of the region Denis Pasler. However, while the head of the region is trying to avoid public comments on this topic.
