On the section from the central beach of Vityazevo to the Mozhepsin River, where there have been no significant emissions of fuel oil for several months, 3.5 kilometers of polypropylene nets have been removed.
As "Kavkazsky Uzel" wrote, on July 5, the Kuban operational headquarters reported that dismantling of the embankment on the coast in Anapa, which was intended to protect the beaches from fuel oil emissions, had begun. A lot of fuel oil had accumulated in the sand embankments and ditches equipped to protect the beaches, which, if dismantled poorly, would again end up on the beach and in the sea, environmentalists warned. On July 19, several kilometers of the coast in the Temryuk district were polluted with new fuel oil emissions.
In February, the authorities announced that protective structures had been installed from the Central Beach of Anapa to the Bugayskaya Spit , which include a ditch, a rampart, and a polypropylene net covering the rampart. The purpose of these structures is to protect the coast from waves during a storm and absorb fractions of fuel oil if the waves reach the rampart.
The Krasnodar Territory Operational Headquarters reported on the evening of July 22 about the removal of polypropylene nets on the coast of Anapa, which serve to capture fuel oil.
The operational headquarters reported in its Telegram channel that 3.5 kilometers of nets were removed from the section from the central beach of Vityazevo to the Mozhepsin River; there have been no significant emissions of fuel oil here for several months. Earlier, a protective rampart was removed from this section.
A total of four kilometers of nets were installed in this area; currently, 500 meters remain; they will be taken away for disposal in the near future.
In addition, government officials are patrolling the coastal areas and asking vacationers not to visit these places. When checking into hotels and resorts, tourists are required to sign written notices about the ban on swimming and health risks.
On December 15, 2024, two tankers carrying fuel oil sank in the Kerch Strait, leading to catastrophic environmental consequences. Details can be found in the "Caucasian Knot" reference "Fuel oil spill in the Kerch Strait".
Materials about the consequences of the fuel oil spill have been collected by the "Caucasian Knot" on the thematic page "Eco-disaster in Kuban".
