It is expected that in two years Dnepropetrovsk region will have 10 000 hectares of new afforestation. The Head of Dnepropetrovsk regional state administration Viktor Bondar’ informed about it.
Regional authorities set a goal to plant trees and gardens in the territory of the region. This year we have already handed some tractors and other forest-planting machines to the forestry. We have a plan to hand 14 items of special equipment to the forestry workers by their professional day. Also the governor noted that there is a big problem in our region connected with forest fires. So regional authority decided to buy fire-fighting equipment.
As IA “Novy Most” (New Bridge) informed earlier, 165 forest fires have been registered in Dnepropetrovsk region since 2009.
