Deputy Mitrokhin demands an investigation into the situation around the methanol terminal in Azov

Deputy of the State Duma of the RF Sergei Mitrokhin (YABLOKO faction) forwarded letters demanding an investigation into the situation surrounding the methanol terminal in Azov in the addresses of Interior Minister Boris Gryzlov, Minister of Natural Resources Vitali Artyukhov, Public Prosecutor General Vladimir Ustinov, Chief Sanitary Doctor Gennadi Onischenko and the governor of the Rostov region Vladimir Chub.

"Analysis of the files handed to me by representatives of Azov [city] and environmental organisations provides with grounds for citing bad violations [of the standards] made during the design and construction of the terminal," said Mitrokhin. "The goal of my addresses is to find out how bad they are and return the situation back to the legal field."

According to the documents, a number of federal legislative acts, such as the Law "On Environmental Protection ", the Law "On Environmental Expertise", the Provisions on the assessment of the impact on the environment and legislation regulating construction work were violated during the design and construction of the terminal in Azov.

In addition to the violations

During the design and construction of the terminal letters addressed to Gryzlov, Ustinov and Chub also provide examples of unlawful actions of the militia towards citizens who participated in protest acts against the resumption of nuclear imports.
