Since the beginning of Amur Gas Processing Plant project, the specialists from Amur Centre of Laboratory Analysis and Technical Metrology regularly conduct industrial environmental monitoring. They monitor the state of atmospheric air, soil, water in rivers, bottom sediments, ichthyofauna, sediments, plants not only on the main sites, but also on the border of the nearest residential development. Since the beginning of regular observations, the environmental safety of construction of the Amur GPP has been confirmed by the results of over 2,000 samples.
