The enterprise shall plant trees on the area equal to the clearing within the strictly defined period – three years since the clearing time, the Government press service reports.
“We expect these decisions to raise the efficiency of the advanced development territories, including in Kamchatka, Sakhalin and Primorye, where the required works have already been scheduled, and local residents and tourists will be able to enjoy their outdoor recreation,” Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin underscored.
These activities will be supervised by the management companies of the advanced development territories. They are to monitor the timing and the amount of the planted trees. The resident company will have to notify them on the beginning of the works and report on their completion.
