The municipal fleet collected more than 600 tons of garbage from the capital’s waters during the navigation period this year. This was reported by the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Housing and Public Utilities and Improvement Petr Biryukov.
“Communal vessels were engaged in daily garbage collection from the water surface of the Moscow River and the navigable part of the Yauza, eliminated pollution, and removed silt sediment. In total, they collected over 600 tons of floating garbage, eliminated almost 140 different types of pollution, and removed about 6.5 thousand tons of sand and soil from the bottom,” noted Pyotr Biryukov.
Thanks to the competent arrangement of the fleet and waste collection bases, the entire water area of the Moscow River within the city boundaries and the navigable section of the Yauza are under 24-hour control. The main efforts to collect floating waste were concentrated in the upper reaches of the Moscow River, which ensured the cleanliness of the riverbed downstream. Garbage collection vessels worked mainly, with small vessels operating in shallow areas. Floating cranes and non-self-propelled barges with tugs were used to extract bottom sediments of sand and soil.
The head of the city economy complex reminded that the capital’s municipal fleet operates all year round. Even after the end of the seasonal navigation, two vessels with an ice class of up to 20 centimeters remain on the water. Garbage collectors and rapid response boats continue to operate on non-freezing rivers.
During the inter-navigation period, the bulk of the fleet is moored in winter mooring areas, where maintenance and routine repairs are carried out.
