Before they were allowed multi-purpose fishing areas. Now they have a narrow specialization: for either sports fishing or for industrial. This division is especially sharply felt by the inhabitants of the Sakhalin region. Last year there were 44 stations where people could fish for salmon with nets for personal use. Now the entire region there were only two.
For the islanders, fish is the number one product, although allowed to produce the networks, only three of the tail per day. Innovations, according to the Sakhalin regional Duma was deprived of almost the entire population of this region increases to the table. And even on a hook tackle to catch salmon are now nowhere.
– not provided by the Rules of free catch of chum and coho salmon. Their extraction is only possible for flights on the plots allocated for the organization of Amateur fishing, – said the Deputy Chairman of the parliamentary Committee for economic development, Yuri Vygolov.
It’s about those two remaining on the entire area specialized plots located in the Okha district and the island of Shikotan. The situation could lead to mass poaching. To prevent such developments, the regional Duma appealed to the Minister of agriculture of Russia Dmitry Patrushev with a request to initiate an amendment to the law and to establish the possibility of multipurpose use of fishing areas.
At the same address sent a statement by the Governor of the Chukotka Autonomous Okrug Roman Kopin and members of the County Council. Here without fishing remained residents of the third largest city in Chukotka – plentywood. Next to him is not formed any fishing area Amateur fishing nets salmon and trout. The government of the Autonomous region has developed proposals for “cutting” plots and repeatedly went with them in Federal agencies. No luck so far. According to the Chairman of the Duma CHAO Alexander Maslov, in the summer the locals traditionally spend most of their time on the beach. And when they have no legal rights to fishing, it entails an increase in social tensions.
– summer is near and that means the beginning of fishing season. In the urban area of Pevek citizens at risk to face obstacles, he said.
To avoid this, the regional authorities presented a United front. They insist on the need for changes in existing fishing regulations in relation to plentywood and its inhabitants.
the authorities of the Sakhalin region and the Chukotka Autonomous Okrug not lower hands and try to bring fans right on fishing. But the residents of the village of Zaporozhye Ust-Bolsheretsky district of Kamchatka approach to tackle the water banned over a decade ago. And no, this is not the case.
Call from the “Russian newspaper” in Zaporozhye was surprised.
Thought��, about us have forgotten. Live on the banks of the river, fish swimming, and fish can not, – said the head of the village administration Tatiana Taburetkin.
the Village stands on the banks of a rich river’s lake that comes salmon. The fish here trades ten companies. Early problems with fishing were not there and the local residents – the site for Amateur fishing were located under the houses. But in 2008, it withdrew the Agency.
– for some reason they felt that it is used for other purposes. Then passed the auctions, and the right to ex-our site has won an industrial enterprise. It is now it catches. And the discovery of new places where you could fish us has imposed a moratorium. Initially explained that will take place for Amateur fishing. But it took more than ten years, and we all sit under this moratorium. The whole beach is a four kilometer – busy fishers. Then begins the reserve, – says the Deputy head of the village Guard Paul.
In Zaporozhye is home to more than 500 people. Many are working in those industrial plants and, of course, have access to the fish: you can drag home the tail of the master’s catch.
– And what about those who do not work in the fields? And pensioners, which in the village is very much? In fact, we have the whole village only two have a legitimate right to fish, without risking a fine. This two representatives of indigenous peoples of the North. All the rest of the state did potential poachers, outraged Tatiana Taburetkin.
last year, the problem was raised by a rural Deputy Sergey Yablonsky. He sent a colleague from the regional legislative Assembly Mikhail Puchkovsky letter, which was signed by 52 residents of Zaporizhia. People wrote: “Fish “provide” only pensioners, but the quality of this fish is often very bad, it is stale, crushed, in General, the elderly give that and not give pity. At the same time, major mining companies are caught in the Lake thousands of tons of salmon”.
– the Regional Deputy sounded interested and said that this year we will do the plot. The time has come, but no news from him came, says Paul, a Guard.
Michael Puchkovsky explained “RG” the reason for the silence thus:
All my attempts to resolve the situation have not given result. We Bolsheretsky and Ust-Kamchatka areas is a fish Klondike. Those who keep there crafts, billionaires. Influential fishing lobby pushes from the rivers to local residents, preventing to enrich themselves “masters.” The problem faced by not only the residents of Zaporozhye. However, until recently the regional authorities were not interested in solving it. Recently came a new Prosecutor and the head of the region. So I go on the second run.
After this conversation the impression that “first time” on appeal of the CoE��Yang MP has been very active. At least he did not mention any instance in which contacted. However, the request to the local authorities was the very last letter to the residents of Zaporozhye, published by many media outlets.
– Response was zero. Nowhere no reply to our address did not arrive, – summed up Paul the Guard.
