Flood prevention: emergency response teams deployed in the city

Akim of the region Gauez Nurmukhambetov inspected the situation in the districts of the regional capital most vulnerable to meltwater. During the tour, special attention was paid to the Workers' Settlement and the Birlik microdistrict, where emergency response teams have been deployed to promptly respond to potential flooding. Monitoring has also been stepped up in the Bereke microdistrict.

Since the beginning of winter, the city has been systematically removing snow, clearing storm drains, and cleaning irrigation ditches. To date, approximately 900,000 cubic meters of snow have been removed. The work continues at an intensified pace, involving approximately 200 pieces of specialized equipment, over 100 motor pumps, 30 sewage trucks, and over 350 people, including volunteers, military personnel, and utility workers.

Today marks the end of the Decade "Nauryznama — Tazaru Kuni". At the initiative of the Head of State, a large-scale environmental campaign is underway across the country, opening a new phase of the national "Taza Kazakstan" project. Work to clean courtyards and public spaces has been organized in all districts of the region. Particular attention is being paid to supporting citizens in need — volunteers are helping residents remove snow from their courtyards and surrounding areas.
