The municipal enterprise in Pervomaisk will be fined 1.5 million rubles for polluting the Umotch River.

      The Arbitration Court of the Nizhny Novgorod Region confirmed the legitimacy of the claims made by the Interregional Office of Rosprirodnadzor for the Nizhny Novgorod Region and the Republic of Mordovia, which is seeking compensation from the municipal enterprise "Raduga" in the city of Pervomaysk for the damage caused to the river Umotch. This was reported by the press service of the office. This enterprise, which operates treatment facilities reconstructed as part of the federal project "Health of the Volga," has repeatedly been held administratively liable for violations of environmental legislation and for failing to comply with the supervisory authority's directives to rectify these violations. Inspections of the facility in February and July 2025 again revealed exceedances of the permissible discharge standards, including for iron, manganese, copper, and other pollutants. Furthermore, it was established that the discharges from the municipal enterprise "Raduga" have a negative impact on the river Umotch. Based on the data obtained, specialists from Rosprirodnadzor calculated the damage caused to the water body, which exceeded 1.5 million rubles. The enterprise refused to voluntarily compensate this amount. The court, having reviewed the case materials, found the fact of the defendant causing harm to the river Umotch due to non-compliance with water legislation requirements to be fully proven and issued a decision to recover the entire amount of damage from the municipal enterprise "Raduga."
