I've been wanting to make a map for a long time dangerous areas Moscow region, where, for one reason or another, it is under no circumstances possible to set up a dacha, much less live.
One of these areas is located around the already closed solid waste landfill. household waste near the village of Salaryevo:
It is believed that this is the largest landfill in Europe! The height of the pile is up to 80 meters! This is approximately equal to a 27-story building. Garbage was brought here from the sixties of the last century until 2007, when they decided to mothball the landfill. What is conservation? It was simply covered with a layer of earth on which grass now grows. Gases from decay escape into the atmosphere, water flows into the ground and... the nearest tributary of the Setun River:
Number 1 on the diagram is the landfill itself. As we can see, some streams flow from it towards the Kievskoye Highway, past Kartmazovo.
Because of the wind, I would call any direction around the landfill at a distance of 3-5 kilometers unfavorable. Due to the direction of the surface river, the nearest ones are not favorable settlements these are Kartmazovo, Solntsevsky district of Moscow and Novo-Peredelkino. Direction groundwater I don’t know, so I can only make guesses. But in any case it will be correct conclusion, that the farther from the landfill, the better.
It so happened that this landfill has now become part of the new Moscow. And I doubt that everything there will rot in the next century. I find garbage on my site that is fifty years old, in excellent condition.
Looking at the map, I discovered that where the tributary coming from the landfill flows into Setun, there is a street called “Rodnikovaya”. Apparently someone has a good sense of humor
p.s. All of the above is just my guess based on the topography of the area.
p.p.s. An interesting coincidence, but the Solntsevo gang was one of the most brutal in Moscow. It is possible that spoiled water could affect the character.
I once talked about friends who bought an apartment in a new district of Moscow near the Salaryevsky training ground ( https://vk.com/viktornecha?w=wall406786549_17). Previously, there was a village with a population of about 300 people and a training ground.But in 2012, the village of Salaryevo and the entire territory of the landfill became part of Moscow, so the largest landfill in Europe is now officially part of it.
Of course, immediately after that, land prices here soared and construction of residential and commercial real estate began. Of course, will developers really look at some landfill when it comes to money?
It’s worth talking a little about the numbers! The height of the hill is as high as a 27-story building!! According to official data, the landfill was closed ten years ago - then the landfill area was 60 hectares. However, who stopped? The landfill was used and perhaps continues to be used, because now the area of pollution, according to environmentalists, is 300 hectares!! Admire:
So, the landfill had to be reclaimed, that is, cleaned and prepared for use. This is a long process and of course expensive. The filtration system at the landfill cannot cope with the load, because... there is many times more than the amount of waste that can be stored. And the soil around the landfill is already very polluted.
But!! When all this construction began, especially the construction of the metro (which was moved a little further due to damage), all this poison with which the soil is saturated came to the surface. All this ends up in the neighboring rivers - Sosenka and Setun, into which waste is already regularly pouredhttps://ria.ru/eco/20110204/330311832.html (though, of course, Mosvodostok covers local enterprises and does not punish anyone for this). The air is also poisoned, as I already said, you can smell it straight from the subway.
At the same time, environmentalists officially declare that in such conditions it is impossible to build closer than a kilometer under any circumstances. But now the houses under construction are less than 500 meters from the landfill!!
So far, all that has been done from the reclamation project is that the hill has been slightly smoothed and the slopes have been sowed with grass. Environmentalists are sounding the alarm: Sobyanin has been sent a proposal to change the situationhttp://izvestia.ru/news/557998 . But so far nothing is happening, but new houses are growing floor by floor.
How do you think the residents feel about all this? Do they live peacefully?? Or are they going to act?? To find out this, I went to Salaryevo on a free day.
An hour's ride on the metro, and now the familiar smell of plastic! In general, I go out into the open field again. My goal was to find out the opinions of the residents, but the station is a travel station, that is, for many it is not the final destination, but only a stage on the way to Troitsk. So I immediately went to the woman with the stroller, assuming that she was local.
And so it turned out, the girl who introduced herself as Natasha said that aboutnor have they become accustomed to the smell. She herself lives here in the same village of Salaryevo, but not so long ago, just two years, she moved in with her husband. The child appeared after she moved, and well, they themselves are breathing, they don’t know how it will affect him. Hopes for everything necessary procedures with a hill”, that is, for reclamation, and not just superficial improvement. She knows nothing about initiative groups that would centrally engage in the fight for their rights to a clean environment around them (there may not be any of them at all).
Another man of about fifty, a resident of the same village, said that things have gotten better compared to 2007, when the garbage was still being collected, but now at least it doesn’t stink so much (!!). But it’s upsetting that no one wants to continue working on the landfill, they buried it and that’s it. Now they are saying that they will build everything here, right on top of the trash. Nobody cares that people are poisoned. He’s ready to sign something, but he definitely won’t organize single pickets; after all, he’s been living here for several years. But if there is an opportunity to influence somehow with a signature, yes.
And there was another man who said that animal corpses had previously been taken to the landfill!! And now, of course, grace, they are all hidden there under the grass. But that doesn't mean there's no harm. In general, something needs to be done with the hill, of course. For example, write another letter to Sobyanin.
In general, people could do something, but they don’t see support yet. Hence the conclusion - we need to start! Start doing something, and then people will unite.
Indeed, in terms of waste recycling, a lot can be changed, for example, compare the experience of other countrieshttp://gmichailov.livejournal.com/1191459.html and ours!! The only question is money (from the state) and the degree of desire of the residents (which is still in its infancy).
I'm wondering what the next step should be!! What would you do if you were the residents of Salaryevo? What is the best thing to do: a letter to the mayor with many signatures or, for example, to urge all residents to send each a separate letter?? Or are there other ways to legally fight for your rights?
The capital's mayor's office plans to liquidate the remains former landfill"Salaryevo", using new technologies for land cleansing - reclamation. On the site of a huge storage facility household waste and waste, a winter sports park will be built, the Izvestia newspaper reported.
Construction of a park on the site of the Salaryevo landfill
The head of the environmental management department, Anton Kulbachevsky, told reporters that reclamation will reduce Negative influence waste landfill to the neighboring territories, where the final station of the Sokolnicheskaya metro line will arrive next year. The project is planned to be implemented at the expense of the Moscow budget. Experts believe that it will only take a few years for a ski slope to appear on the site of the landfill.
The household waste landfill in the village of Salaryevo was organized in the 1960s on the site of a sand quarry. The landfill was constantly replenished until 2007. At the same time, according to environmentalists and local residents, after the closure of the largest landfill in Europe, new illegal landfills began to appear next to it, where garbage was dumped.
Deputy Chairman for environmental policy Kalman Tseytin explained what work needs to be done to create a recreational area for sports fans on the site of the landfill. “Although reclamation was already carried out in 2007 - in other words, strengthening the landfill, installing pipes through which liquid is pumped out, as well as creating a gas exhaust system - the landfill can no longer cope with the amount of leachate that it releases,” Tseytin said. According to the expert, it is necessary to implement new project, including the contaminated areas around the landfill itself.
New technologies involve laying the top fertile layer. Trees and shrubs are planted in it, which with their root system further strengthen the “body” of the landfill and participate in the process of natural rehabilitation of the territory. The project will take at least two years to complete.
History of the Salaryevskaya landfill
They began transporting garbage to Salaryevo back in the 1960s from all over Moscow. By 2007, about 15 million tons had accumulated at the landfill solid waste, and the height of the mountain was 70-80 meters at total area 59 Ha. It turned out to be exorbitant huge size even by Moscow standards, a lot of garbage. That same year, the landfill was mothballed.
What is conservation? It seems that there is no definite answer to this question, because effectively and competently conserving and equipping solid waste landfills in Russia began relatively recently. The Salaryevo landfill was formed in the most typical way: initially it was a ravine into which waste was transported. When the time came to close the landfill, a special fabric was spread over its entire surface to prevent landslides, and fertile soil was poured on top. Now the slopes of the mountain are overgrown with grass.
If you get closer to great grief a hundred meters away, you can already feel bad smell. During the decay of garbage, a mixture of gases is released, consisting of 45-60% methane, 25-35% carbon dioxide and 10-20% nitrogen. It is formed in the depths of a huge pile of garbage and is brought through pipes to the surface through special ventilation shafts located evenly across the entire surface of the former landfill.
A drainage system is also installed at this site. The liquid that somehow seeps inside, as well as that formed during the decay of waste, is discharged to the surface of the earth and an open tank. That is, it simply merges onto the ground, carrying with it external environment rotting products. At more advanced and younger landfills, they act much wiser: the water is purified at local treatment facilities and used as technical water. In the case of the mothballed Salaryevo landfill, this water should have at least been purified. Needless to say, environmentalists have long recognized the unsatisfactory state of the environment within a radius of 2-3 kilometers from the former landfill?
The situation with this landfill is unclear: it seems to have been mothballed, but not completely. Waste (gas, water) is released directly into the external environment without being filtered. Moreover, harmful gas could be used for efficient energy generation, and water could be purified and reused for technical purposes. The waste will decompose without any benefit for a very, very long time, about 30-40 years, and it will not be possible to build anything on this site for about another 60 years. And all this time, a huge mountain of garbage will settle and delight the eyes of residents of Moscow and the Moscow region.
Construction work in the area of the village of Salaryevo in the “new Moscow”, where a new metro station of the same name is currently being built, provoked an exit to the surface of the earth large quantity toxic substance- filtrate formed during the decomposition of garbage at the Salaryevo household waste landfill (MSW) closed in 2007. Kalman Tseytin, deputy chairman of the Moscow City Duma’s expert council on environmental policy, told Izvestia about this, having conducted a study of the problem based on data from the capital’s environmental management department. Proposals with measures to solve environmental problem(the document is at the disposal of the newspaper) were sent to the mayor of Moscow Sergei Sobyanin, as well as for consideration by the environmental commission of the Moscow City Duma. The head of the department for the development of new territories, Vladimir Zhidkin, told Izvestia that the problem in Salaryevo will be given special attention.
The Salaryevo landfill was closed back in April 2007, and in August of the same year its reclamation began - the process of cleaning the territory and preparing it for further use. However, according to Tseytin, the filtration system installed at the landfill cannot cope with the load.
The landfill is considered one of the largest landfills in Europe, he explained. - Although initially the landfill area was about 60 hectares, after its closure spontaneous landfills began to form around it, so that the contaminated area grew to 300 hectares. The height of the landfill today reaches 80 m, which is comparable to the height of a 27-story building. The cleaning system was designed only to process waste with a volume of no more than 200 cubic meters. m per day, while the actual volume of filtrate that is released from the “body” of the landfill currently exceeds the capabilities of the treatment system by four times and amounts to 800 cubic meters. m per day. The excess that the filters could not handle accumulates in the “body” of the landfill and in the ground around the landfill.
According to Tseytin, it is the transfer of land into ownership and active construction on the territory close to the landfill that creates such a load on the land that untreated toxic substances, which the landfill's filtration system could not cope with, come to the surface, poisoning the soil, water and air.
On July 1, 2012, Salaryevo, the territory where the village of the same name and the solid waste landfill are located, became part of Moscow. As a result, the cost and rent square meter real estate grew here and the place became attractive for construction. New housing has begun to be built - houses are located less than 500 m from the landfill. In the fall of 2012, it was said that the Sokolnicheskaya metro line would be continued in Salaryevo, a station and a large-scale transport hub (TPU) would be built. At the beginning of September it became known that large development companies were negotiating to purchase a plot of land with an area of 5 hectares next to the future metro station in order to build a large shopping mall.
The filtrate ends up in underground springs, which, in turn, flow into the Sosenka River, which is a tributary of the Desna River, Tseytin added. - The river valley goes around the landfill from the north, west and south, so the pollution spreads very quickly. It turns out that it is necessary to develop new complex measures to ensure environmental safety population near the landfill and in nearby areas.
In June 2013, residents of the settlement of Kartmazovo, neighboring Salaryevo, complained about the discharge of chemicals into the Setunka River - then a case was opened under the article “Water Pollution”; the culprit was found to be the owner of land next to the river, who provided some enterprise with territory for waste disposal. According to the Department of Environmental Management and Protection environment Moscow, the damage to the city ultimately exceeded 3.8 billion rubles.
One of the proposals sent for consideration to the Moscow City Duma is a proposal to divide areas of responsibility for the situation at the Salaryevo landfill between the Moscow government and land users. In particular, it is proposed to create an “active” biogas utilization system at the expense of the Moscow budget, which would allow the generation and use of electricity, as well as new system drainage system that would prevent filtrate from entering The groundwater and neighboring rivers. It is also proposed to seize the territories immediately adjacent to the landfill and introduce fines not only for unauthorized dumping of waste, but also for conducting economic activity in the sanitary zone of the landfill, which must be at least 500 m. At the expense of land users, it is proposed to conduct hydrogeological studies that will show the true environmental situation in the territory.
Co-Chair environmental group“Ecodefense” Vladimir Slivyak believes that, despite the annexation of the territory to Moscow, it is better not to build anything on it.
Unfortunately, in such a huge municipal waste landfill, the leachate output is natural process, the expert explained. - Intervention in the soil during construction provokes the release of toxic substances to the outside, so it is advisable not to build anything within a kilometer radius.
In Europe there is not enough land to make landfills,” Slivyak said. “That’s why most garbage is recycled, and we should strive for this too. You can sort garbage from the first stage, when a person throws waste into a trash can, to the stage when the garbage is sorted in special factories. The main thing is not to mix organics with inorganics, then it will be possible to recycle the garbage. Today, almost everything is recycled: paper, metal, many types of plastic.
Managing partner of the Moscow Central Real Estate Exchange Artem Tsogoev noted that after the territory was annexed to Moscow, real estate prices increased.
Until 2012, when the territory belonged to the Moscow region, the price per 1 sq. m of housing in this area did not exceed 70 thousand rubles,” the expert noted. - After joining, the cost increased to 90–96 thousand rubles per meter. After the metro opens, there will be another jump in prices, and, of course, the area will become more attractive to investors. A 200 thousand sq. m business center is already being built in Salaryevo. m and a number of other business objects.
