The procedure for recognizing Anapa beaches as suitable for swimming will be accelerated at the initiative of Kondratyev.

6.5 kilometers of beaches in Anapa have been filled with imported sand, and there are no fuel oil emissions on the coast. The decision has been made to immediately remove beaches from the "danger zone" as soon as the sand is completed, the governor of the Krasnodar Krai reported. A blogger noted that sifted sand is better suited for beaches.

As reported by "Caucasian Knot," activists are concerned that the quality of the sand used to fill Anapa's beaches differs markedly from that of the dunes. This, they believe, could ruin the city's reputation as a resort. Authorities reported that over 136,000 cubic meters of sand have been imported to Anapa's beaches, and over five kilometers of coastline have already been filled. New sand hardens after rain and turns into a suspension in water, Telegram users reported.

Participated in a meeting of the Government Commission for the Elimination of the Consequences of the Oil Spill in the Black Sea. I reported to Deputy Prime Minister Vitaly Savelyev on the current situation in Anapa. No new fuel oil emissions were detected over the past week. Sixty-five people are monitoring the situation, said Veniamin Kondratyev, Governor of Kuban.

According to him, more than 150,000 cubic meters of new sand have been delivered since the work began. To date, 6.5 kilometers have been filled, including a 1-kilometer test section. "Where the work has been completed, the areas have received a positive conclusion from Rospotrebnadzor. Therefore, we have decided to immediately remove beaches from the 'danger zone' as soon as the filling is completed. This will streamline landscaping efforts and the process for owners to obtain sanitary and epidemiological approval," Kondratyev stated.

Blogger Yuri Ozarovsky expressed hope that the beaches will be filled faster than planned. "Good news for everyone waiting for the sand to be filled at the Lazurny Bereg and Kavkaz beaches. Trucks are already actively driving there, delivering sand. Many have asked about this—please be assured, the work is indeed underway. The first driveway is almost completely filled, and sand is also being actively transported to Dzhemetinsky Proezd and Yubileyny Proezd. The equipment is working, the process is moving forward. "Krivoy Proezd and Gostevoy Proezd haven't been filled yet, but we hope they'll be there soon," he reported on his Telegram channel.

"If they'd sift the sand additionally, it would be priceless!" he added. This message went unanswered.
