Road building

During the last 5 years 337 km of improved automobile winter roads of extended exploitation time (Bilibino-Anyuysk, Valunisty-Egvekinot) and 4 bridge ways of the total length of 415 running metres were built and brought into exploitation. Building of the third launch complex of automobile winter road with extended exploitation time "Bilibino-Anuisk" and a bridge way is under way.

1.8 km of automobile roads and a 52 running meter bridge have been reconstructed and re-cemented. 77 km of territorial automobile roads and 9.3 km of the federal automobile highway have been repaired, and their concrete-cement covering replaced; 6.4 km of automobile roads are undergoing major repairs. 644.9 running meters of bridges have been repaired.

Today in the Okrug, bridge ways across the river Palyavaam on the automobile road from Pevek (Komsomolsky) to Bilibino, and a bridge way across the river Apapelgin on the automobile road from Pevek to Apapelgino of length of 15 kilometers, are brought into exploitation. Rebuilding works have been done on automobile roads Pevek- Apapelgino-Yanranay and Egvekinot-Mys Shmidta. An important task of road builders is providing safety and quality maintenance of the Okrug's existing road network. Between 2001 and 2005, 642.7 million rubles was spent on the maintenance of automobile roads and artificial facilities. All in all, 3.7 billion rubles was spent for development and improvement of the automobile road network of the Okrug between 2001 and 2005.

The program of economic development in Chukotka can be carried out, considers vice-premier of government CHAO M. Sobolev.

First of all, the long-term program leans on resources of peninsula. Let’s begin that geological resources of Chukotka are explored today on 10 %-17 %. The next regions are explored much better. And even on these, tentative estimations resources here can be found. The proved resources of gas on the Priosernoe deposit - 7,3 billion cubic meters. Oil resources are estimated approximately in 10 million tons, the proved stocks make 4 million tons of them. They are dispersed on small Fields, such, as Hatirskoe, where extraction is conducted by "Sibneft" company. But it is not necessary to dismiss a shelf – it’s insufficiently studied yet, but there are data, that it’s resources can make up to 14 billion tons of conditional fuel. Exxon Mobile Company in similar ice conditions, in Baffin bay has constructed 7 platforms. What prevents to construct them here?

Reindeer breeding can be profitable: E. Marochkin acting on the head of agriculture and foodstuffs department makes comments.

There was a moratorium on an industrial slaughter of deers in district till 2006. But now it is removed, farms have allocated a contingent for commodity slaughter this year. It is planned to hand over in a trading network about 9 thousand deers this year. Within the limits of national project the agrarian and industrial complex have got slaughter area on terms of financial leasing which is assembled in Kanchalan. Basically its value is in that correctly cut production will receive a trade look and will answer all established norms. The livestock of deers for September, 1st - from above 183 thousand. It’s below the level of 1990 (490 thousand heads), nevertheless, in Chukotka a livestock grows on faster rates, than on Yamal, and it’s our main competitor. Potential market - not only Vladivostok, but also Japan, Korea, China. Reindeer breeding is, at least, preservation of a traditional way of life of native people and food safety of region and when sales volumes become great enough, branch can turn in profitable.
