Dear residents of the region!

The flood season in our region has concluded.

In this regard, I would like to particularly highlight the coordinated work of all authorized bodies. Thanks to the timely measures taken, populated areas were protected from meltwater. We did not allow a single residential house to be flooded. All necessary measures were taken. No emergency situations were registered. 

Protective engineering structures were implemented in advance:

- In 92 populated areas, 32 protective embankments with a total length of 54 km were built and reinforced;

- 38 water culverts were installed;

- 78 km of storm sewer were cleaned;

- Snow was cleared from more than 1,600 private house yards across the region.

Over 3,600 people and more than 500 pieces of equipment were involved in carrying out these works. Hydrological posts operated around the clock on the rivers, maintaining constant monitoring of water levels.

Thus, the period associated with the threat of flooding in the Kostanay region passed in a routine manner. All of this is the result of our joint work.

I would like to express my gratitude to all citizens who participated in the joint efforts – emergency service personnel, military personnel, volunteers, and youth.
