It is noted that a report on an administrative offense under Article 152 of the Code of Ukraine on Administrative Offenses was drawn up.

"Checks are ongoing," the message emphasized.

Earlier, the inspectors also discovered an illegal dump of construction waste in one of the city's yards from garbage after renovation. Administrative materials were filed against the responsible persons who allowed the yard to be littered.

As you know, the Inspection provides control over the state of city improvement.

Earlier, EcoPoliotic wrote, that in November, furnaces for burning rubber were discovered in the Factory District of Zaporizhzhia, the smoke from which was polluting the air. The territory of the enterprise is heavily littered with waste rubber, tires and covered with a layer of soot.

As EcoPolitic previously reported, in August in the industrial zone of the Shevchenkiv district of Zaporizhzhia, it was discovered that an entrepreneur had installed an artisanal furnace in which he melts batteries. Black smoke with a very unpleasant smell is produced from this activity.
