Ministry of Forestry of the Republic of Tatarstan asks Tatarstan citizens to strengthen compliance with fire safety rules in the summer period
With the advent of June, the calendar summer began. During this period, the danger of forest fires sharply increases due to violation of fire safety rules in forests and careless handling of fire.
We remind you that according to the rules, it is prohibited in forests:
1) to make bonfires in coniferous young forests, in burnt areas, in areas of damaged forest, peat bogs, in places of felling (on cutting areas), not cleared of cutting residues and harvested wood, in places with dried grass, and also under the crowns of trees;
2) to throw burning matches, cigarette butts and hot ash from smoking pipes, glass (glass bottles, cans, etc.);
3) to use when hunting wads of combustible or smoldering materials;
4) to leave materials oiled or saturated with gasoline, kerosene or other combustible substances (paper, cloth, towels, cotton wool, etc.) in places not specially provided for this purpose;
5) to refuel the fuel tanks of internal combustion engines when the engine is running, use cars with a faulty engine power system, and also smoke or use an open flame near vehicles that are fueled by fuel;
6) to litter the forest with household, construction, industrial and other waste and garbage.
Violation of fire safety rules in the forests entails the imposition of an administrative fine on citizens in the amount of up to 3 thousand rubles, on officials - up to 20 thousand rubles, legal entities - up to 200 thousand rubles.
