MOSCOW. Dec 17 (Interfax-AVN) - The first stage of a chemical arms disposal plant will be started up in the town of Kizner, Udmurtia, on December 19.
"This is the last chemical arms disposal facility built consistent with the federal targeted program "The Elimination of Chemical Weapons in the Russian Federation"," says a report of the Spetsstroy press service obtained by Interfax-AVN on Tuesday.
Spetsstroy intends to finish the construction of the Kizner facility by 2017. Thermal waste and wastewater treatment units and a waste burial site will be built in 2014-2016, the report said.
Funds assigned for the social section of the federal targeted program will finance the construction of a fire depot, a residential building with 60 apartments and two preschool centers.
The Kizner plant is located in the direct proximity of a military unit, which stores chemical munitions. Spetsstroy began the Kizner project in spring 2008. It has erected a number of high-tech industrial buildings, offices, apartment blocks, engineering and social infrastructure.
Builders from Spetstroy's GUSST No. 4 have also commissioned a medical diagnostic and consultation facility, a kindergarten and three general education schools with gyms for Kizner residents and personnel of the Kizner plant.
The Kizner facilities will be consecrated on December 19, and the technological process of scrapping of artillery munitions carrying warfare gases will be demonstrated, the report said.
