In accordance with the instructions given by the head of state in the address to the people "economic course of Fair Kazakhstan", in 2023 a new tariff policy for regulating the sphere of natural monopolies was adopted – "tariff instead of investment". Its main goal is the modernization of engineering infrastructure and the rational use of resources, especially water.Currently, Kazakhstan has revised the principles of tariffs for drinking water for individuals, within the framework of which "social norms of consumption" have been introduced. According to the committee for regulation of natural monopolies of the Ministry of national economy of the Republic of Kazakhstan, the new tariff algorithm follows the principle "the more you consume, the more you pay". This means higher tariffs for consumers who use water uneconomically.Within the framework of these measures, in order to stimulate the rational use of Water, new water consumption standards have been adopted in Almaty for consumers who do not have metering devices. According to the state enterprise" Almaty Su", these norms have changed for the first time since 1989. According to the document, from January 2025, new rates for calculating water and sewerage were introduced.For residents of houses where metering devices are not installed, payment is calculated according to the following norms:The consumption of 15 cubic meters of water per month is provided for each registered person. Payment at the actual tariff 2 217.60 tenge;If there is a centralized sewer system, an additional 687.96 tenge is charged for each person.The former norms, which have been in force since 1989, were quite low: for private houses 3-6 cubic meters per person per month, for apartments – 8.4 cubic meters. These outdated norms did not encourage consumers to install meters or save water. As a result, only 65% of residential buildings are currently equipped with water meters.According to experts of the state enterprise" Almaty Su", previously private houses were not connected to Central Communications. Currently, thanks to the measures taken, the private sector is actively connecting to the city's engineering systems. At the same time, the volume of water consumption has increased due to the presence of several sanitary facilities, baths, saunas and swimming pools in modern houses.On the official website of the state enterprise "Almaty Su" with the current tariffs for cold water supply and sewerage services, as well as the amount of payments for consumers who do not have water meters (almatysu.kz) you can get acquainted. The site also contains a list of licensed organizations for the installation and inspection of water metering devices.In this regard, in accordance with the rules for providing social assistance in Almaty, determining the amount and determining the list of certain categories of citizens in need, reimbursement of costs for the purchase, installation or inspection of individual metering devices for hot and (or) cold water supply and gas supply is provided. This assistance can be used by citizens whose average per capita income does not exceed three times the subsistence minimum. The amount of reimbursement of costs for each device does not exceed 3.4 (four out of three whole tenths) monthly calculation indices.1) low-income citizens (families) receiving state targeted social assistance and (or)housing assistance;2) large families with four or more minor children;3) disabled people of the first, second and third groups;4) old-age pensioners in accordance with paragraph 1 of Article 207 of the social code of the Republic of Kazakhstan.Consumers are required to apply to the District Social Security Department at their registered address for compensation.

In Almaty, as part of the instructions of the mayor of the city, Yerbolat Dosayev, a snow melting plant was opened, where, for the first time in Kazakhstan, environmentally friendly melting technology and efficient snow disposal were used.The new facility was built on the base where the anti-icing reagents of the Almaty Tazalyk KGP were previously stored. The need to create it is associated with the growing burden on the city's infrastructure and the increase in snowfall in recent years.The operation of the snow melting point is based on the use of wastewater heat, which flows through the existing sewer network. Warm water under pressure passes through a system of pumping units and pipelines, dissolving snow. After that, the resulting meltwater enters the filter, is cleaned of sand and debris, and then into the city sewer network. The installation capacity is up to 1,200 cubic meters of snow per day.Snow is removed from the territories of Auezovsky, Almalinsky and Bostandyk districts to the snow melting point. In these areas, the issue of snow removal is most acute, and traffic does not allow efficient removal of snow from the main streets.In addition, this solution can significantly reduce the time and resources spent on snow removal outside the city, as well as reduce the negative impact on the environment.According to Yertay Kasenov, Deputy Director of the Almaty Tazalyk State Enterprise, the introduction of a snow melting point is a significant step in ensuring environmental sustainability and improving the quality of life in the metropolis."In recent years, winter precipitation has become more intense, and we are forced to look for new solutions for effective snow disposal. The snow melting point is a modern alternative to the traditional method when snow is transported to landfills," Yertay Kasenov added.It should be noted that the project is aimed at improving the winter maintenance of city streets and increasing comfort for Almaty residents in winter.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/almaty/press/news/details/915122

She always supports her colleagues with jokes and kind words, helping them cope with cold shifts. In addition, her organizational skills allow her to quickly find solutions to even the most difficult situations: equipment breakdowns, unexpected snowfalls — all these are just new challenges for her to overcome."We are not working for the sake of gratitude, but so that the residents of the city can continue their lives unchanged," she adds, starting to sing another tune, to which her team continues to clean the streets of Almaty.The city services assure that snow removal will continue without interruptions. Minor streets and inter-block driveways are scheduled to be cleared in the coming days.
