During the working visit of Almaty Region Akim Marat Sultangaziev to Alatau city, the facts of illegal construction were identified and specific tasks were given to the responsible state bodies.

During the field meeting held in Zarechny sub-district, it became known that excavation works were carried out without permission documents in the construction site belonging to "LH AL" LLP. As a result of the inspection, it was determined that the company is working without observing the construction legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

The regional governor strongly criticized the violations and noted that appropriate measures will be taken.

- We will not allow irregular construction and neglect of land and ecology. All works must be carried out in accordance with the requirements of the law, Marat Sultangaziev said. The State Architecture and Construction Control Department of Almaty Region was instructed to stop all construction works at LH AL LLP until the relevant design and permit documents are fully arranged. The administration of Alatau city, in cooperation with the authorized bodies, was tasked with developing a plan of actions to eliminate the spontaneous leakage of the well. In addition, the republican state enterprise "BABI" was instructed to establish permanent control over the process of eliminating the leakage of the well. It is necessary to assess the impact of the water released from the well on the environment by the Department of Ecology of Almaty region and conduct appropriate environmental monitoring. And the Department of Emergency Situations was tasked with providing control in order to prevent the emergence of an emergency situation at the facility. The regional akim's office was assigned the task of sending a proposal to the central state bodies about the inactivity of the relevant structures at the regional level in this case. In addition, "LH AL" LLP was instructed to submit a report to Alatau City Akimat every day on the elimination of legal violations. All materials are sent to authorized bodies for legal assessment. The opinion of specialists in the field of ecology and additional information will be presented later.
