The progress of construction work at the gasification facilities was also reviewed. The head of the responsible department was instructed to ensure that all works are completed with high quality and within the established deadlines.

The meeting also discussed the changes to the natural gas tariff effective from July 1 of the current year, the need to widely inform residents about the new tariffs, and measures to recover outstanding utility debts from consumers. The responsible organizations were instructed to strengthen public awareness and information campaigns among district residents.

The second agenda item focused on preparations for the upcoming heating season. Participants comprehensively discussed the formation of sufficient reserves of liquid, solid, and gaseous fuels for social facilities, repair works on heating systems, provision of the necessary spare parts, and ensuring an uninterrupted coal supply for residents.

Heads of the education, healthcare, culture, and sports sectors reported on the ongoing preparatory work within their respective fields and confirmed that all repair works would be completed within the scheduled timeframe.

In addition, the meeting reviewed measures to reduce outstanding electricity debts, prepare electricity distribution networks for the winter season, and ensure the stable operation of drinking water supply systems. The responsible organizations were instructed to strengthen efforts to ensure the reliable and accident-free operation of electricity and water supply networks during the winter period.

Summing up the meeting, the Akim of the district instructed all relevant departments and institution heads to complete all heating season preparations in a timely and high-quality manner, ensure sufficient fuel reserves for social facilities, continuously monitor the readiness of heating systems, and prepare readiness certificates for all facilities within the established deadlines.
