Specialists of the department found out that the land plot operated by Correctional Colony 4 had a boiler-house that ran on heating oil. Inspectors found numerous heating oil leaks from the fuel-oil storage tank (reservoir) and from the pipeline system through which the heating oil is pumped. Because of the accident, 0.42 ha of adjacent land was polluted, and the concentration of oil products in some areas was from 1.4 to 24 times over the limit.

 “We found out that the company did not have a program for industrial environmental control. Also, the Correctional Colony 4 Federal Government Agency of Pskov Oblast's Directorate of the Federal Penal Correction Service of Russia did not alert the relevant state authorities of an emergency situation in proper order. Soil depollution was not organized,” the press service of Rosprirodnadzor explained.

The inspector of the department will estimate the damage to the soil from the accident, the correctional institution will have to compensate for it.
