How does the industry
influence Tbilisi environment
For the existing
industrial facilities there are no new approaches elaborated from
the environmental standpoint. The new normative documentation's
necessary for designing have not been created factually, the
Soviet-time classification of industrial facilities is functioning
to date. It envisages harmful environmental influence of
technological processes (by capacity):
- - quantity and quality of emissions;
- - noise;
- - vibration;
- - ultra-sound or electromagnetic radiation.
On the ground of appropriate
technical-economic or hygiene grounding the document enables of
increasing the sanitation-protective zone. In spite of the norms
regulating the zoning of industrial facilities, in reality, the
majority of enterprises have not been separated from dwelling areas.
For example, in the beginning of XX century the electric-van-making
factory was put into operation, around which no population was found
those times. In the process of the development of the city it proved
that at the expense of the reduction of the areas adjacent to the
factory the dwelling houses became located in the immediate vicinity
of the factory. The same situation is at the silicate brick factory
of Avtchala, the Centrolit factory.
In recent years the increase in private
enterprises of low capacity showed up, frequently, in the places or
areas unsuitable for them. Therefore the sanitation and
environmental elementary norms are disturbed.
At present the large industrial
facilities function on the average just by 10% of the capacity
envisaged by the project. At the best, private enterprises of low
capacity originate on their territory, which work with partial
forcing and are featured by instability.
The environmental permits legislation
exists for the designing, construction and operation of new
facilities, which requires conduct of the process of environmental impact assessment
(EIA) for the facilities with high environmental
risk.
