The governor of the Krasnodar Territory, Veniamin Kondratiev, said that the flooding in the Tuapse region was due to the fact that the floodplains of the rivers were built up and the water “simply had nowhere to go.” It is necessary to create a system of storm collectors in the area, wrote the head of the region in his Telegram channel.
According to the report, at a meeting with Mr. Kondratyev, local residents expressed the opinion that flooding could have been avoided if the riverbeds were cleaned regularly.
“I completely agree with them. But there is also another reason – the floodplains of the rivers are built up, the water simply has nowhere to go. And there is only one solution – to create a system of storm collectors and drainage channels. This is a lot of money, but today it is a necessity,” the governor emphasized.
In the Tuapse region, as a result of heavy rains that took place on July 15, there were flooded 84 houses and 228 yards.
