History
The Anadyr District was established in 1927 and is currently the largest district of Chukotka (with the square of 249,700 km²), which geographically coincides with a river basin of the Anadyr River. The population is 7,119 people with a density of 0.048 people per 1 m². The administrative center is Ugolnie Kopi Village with a population of 3,501.
Indigenous population of the Anadyrsky region comprises the Chukchee, the Lamuts and the Chuvantsee comprising t27% of the total population in the region. The size of populated settlements may be generally characterized as an “average for Chukotka”, that is 0.095 – 0.8 thousand of people. Given these standards, Markovo settlement (1,178 people) and Ust-Belaya settlement (936 people), both former district centers, stand out. The other pole is represented by small centers of former state owned farms, Krasneno, Chuvanskoe and Lamutskoe (95-300 people).
Natural conditions
Natural conditions of the district vary greatly, from mountainous tundras at the north, lifeless and cold even in summers, to impassable elfin woodland in the south; from the windy coast of the Anadyrsky Liman to silent forest hollows in the west. Geologically, the district is rich with all Chukotka structural elements and useful minerals.
The population settlement of the district is closely related to the Anadyr River and its feeders. The following types of settlement may be distinguished: 1) The largest, Anadyr City located on the right bank of the river near its mouth; 2) An urban-type village of Ugolnie Kopi and a number of small villages within the boundaries of larger ones; 3) six village settlements along the banks of the Anadyr river and three in the lower courses of its feeders.
Production sector
Ugolnaya Mine JSC is engaged in the coal industry of the district. In 2004 its coal output reached 272,000 tons in comparison with 308,600 in 2002 and 303,000 in 2001. In monetary terms, the coal output stood at 181.45 mln rubles.
The year 2002 saw the purchase of a treatment complex, 2 belt conveyors for reloading and transportation of mined rock and 3 substations facilitating mine equipment by the Mine. Faultless operations of the mine required 80 mln rubles in 2002.
Construction of a wind-diesel power plant with the capacity of 3.5 megawatt including 10 wind generators with the separate capacity of 250 kilowatt and 2 diesel generators of 500 kilowatt capacity each was launched in May 2001. The full commissioning of the power plant will provide for an independent power source for, among others, the Anadyr International Airport and reduce costs of the power production. In case of successful use of the wind energy, wind power plants may be built in 13 more localities of Chukotka.
Agriculture
Four agricultural farms are operating in the district: Markovsky Farm, Kanchalansky Farm, Vaezhsky Farm and the First Revkom of Chukotka Farm. The main activities are represented by reindeer breeding, manufacturing and sale of reindeer products. In 2004 the reindeer population numbered 47,369 animals in comparison with 35,700 in 2002. In compliance with a governor’s program, all farms have been supplied with necessary facilities, arms and waterborne vehicles.
The 2004 output of meat, milk and other animal products accounted for 7.12 mln rubles in monetary terms in comparison with 7.3 mln rubles in 2002. The year saw the meat production standing at 0.18 thousand tons and the milk production, at 0.04 thousand tons. The biggest share of the meat market is reindeer meat.
Infrastructure
The main transportation hub of the district is the Anadyr Sea Port, equipped with berths along the both banks of the liman. The navigation starts here and goes up the Anadyr river, along the Kanchalan and the Velikaya rivers. Some parts of small rivers may be navigated by minor fleet. In winters all populated localities are connected with winter snow roads.
In 2004, 90 dwelling houses with the total area of 8.42 thousand m² (2 times more than in 2003) were commissioned. The number included 56 one-family houses in Kanchalan village, 16 one-family houses in Vaegi village and 13 houses in Krasneno village. A boarding school-kindergarten for 150/30/50 accommodations was also built in Kanchalan village.
The district future plans are closely associated with the commissioning of new roads and the development of water transportation. It is expected to facilitate the production of new mineral resources and full operation of the Anadyr Thermal Power Plant as well as successful implementation of natural and inevitable strategies seeing the removal of natural resources management from the center to neighborhoods hosting main natural resources. This will also help use new resources and large mineral and raw materials complexes. Among the most significant objectives is the preservation of traditional economic activities, culture and lifestyle of the indigenous North peoples as well as support of native village population.
