We continue to write about the miracles of “garbage reform” in St. Petersburg and the Leningrad region. The other day we told how regional authorities canceled plans to close the Northern Samarka landfill, the stench of which envelops the most populous, Primorsky district of St. Petersburg. The expiring lease of the land plot under the giant garbage dump was extended, and the team of the odious ex-governor of the Oryol region Vadim Potomsky came to work at the landfill itself.
But surprises await those living in the southern part, as well as in the adjacent areas of the Leningrad region. Colleagues reported that they want to build a new road at another giant landfill – the Novy Svet – Eco landfill, whose almost 50-meter garbage mountain is constantly collapsing, causing a monstrous smell. Journalists had a reasonable question: why? After all, the authorities have been promising to close and reclaim this landfill for many years. The new closing date they promised is the first quarter of next year.
Well, the Cheka-OGPU will clearly explain that no one intends to close the landfill, because the notorious garbage reform in St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region is stalled and the Nevsky Ecological Operator, owned by RAO UES, has not yet even begun to build the planned waste processing plants. So there is simply nowhere to put the 2 million tons of waste in St. Petersburg annually. Enterprising (and very selfish) officials resolved the issue. Garbage from the server part will go to the new-found “Samarka”, while waste from the southern part of the city will continue to go towards the “New World”. Our source among St. Petersburg ecologists said that last week the project to expand this landfill received a positive expert opinion, and it will continue to operate for at least another five years!
This is another and indisputable victory for the owner of New Svet-Eco, garbage oligarch Anatoly Yazev, who has excellent informal relations with the administrations of St. Petersburg and the Leningrad region, and serious connections in the central office of Rosprirodnadzor. Yazev already showed such a trick several years ago, preventing his own testing ground, which had reached its limits, from being closed. Well, residents of St. Petersburg and the suburban part of the 47-region will continue to inhale only the growing stench of the “garbage reform” of the authorities.
