Ensuring the safety of hydraulic structures
Stoilensky implements forest protection technology to reduce the impact on the environment. Around the plant’s tailings shop there are 7.5 meters wide forest strips planted with three rows of birch. At present, the total length of forest plantations is 5.6 thousand meters, and the total area is 4.23 ha.
Birch forests are designed to protect the territory of the region from tailings’ dusting. Their width and orientation is selected in such a way that after five to seven years, they will have become a natural barrier around Stoilensky’s tailings.
