For the third time, the regional prosecutor's office is returning to the consideration of the block of problematic issues related to the functioning of the Shatsk National Park. A comprehensive project for the functioning of the unique center of environmental protection and recreational significance has still not been developed. This is the source of most problems. For example, as noted by Deputy Regional Prosecutor Vasyl Kurenda, around the lakes Svityaz (especially the tract "Hryada"), Pisochne (tourist camp "Lisova Pisnya", village of Melnyky), illegal construction and reconstruction of recreation centers is being carried out on a mass scale. For example, in the Hryada tract there are 68 recreation centers located within the 100-meter prohibited zone. It is no secret to anyone that the shores of the Shatsk Lakes attract "big shots" from all over Ukraine, and recently from abroad as well. The price of land reaches the prices of housing in the regional center ($1,000 per hundred square meters in the village of Svityaz). It is not surprising that in the pursuit of an attractive plot or the opportunity to maintain "registration" on the shore of Svityaz, a "wolf-like struggle" is being waged. The most regrettable thing is that the numerous violations discovered over the past five months by 24 inspections in the Shatsk National Park end, at best, with fines (which, by the way, were issued to the tune of 225 thousand hryvnias). However, the question of relocating or demolishing the objects is not being raised. According to the regional prosecutor Andriy Hil, local self-government bodies should initiate appeals to the courts to restore legality. And that is the same as killing the goose that lays the golden eggs. In both the literal and figurative sense. Yes, the prosecutor's office is handling a case regarding the giving of a bribe to the head of the Shatsk settlement council (it concerned the allocation of a land plot). And was it not for the sake of "manual control" over Hryada that several years ago the tract was included within the boundaries of the settlement of Shatsk? The once well-publicized sewage treatment facilities can no longer cope with the amount of waste that is "produced" in the SNP, so the environmental problem in the region will again be acute within a year, as before. Although the head of the environmental safety department Rostyslav Mihas remains calm and claims that the water in Svityaz is several times cleaner than the norms. Thank God that tourists torment the Shatsk Lakes for only three months a year. And one more interesting observation: why does this quarter of a hundred inspections fall on June-August? If you haven't been to Svityaz, don't even try to look for answers...
