Вопросы совершенствования нормативно-методического регулирования организации охранной зоны на акватории водных объектов под размещение эксплуатируемых трубопроводов

Abstract

Pipe-lines relate to the structures of high hazard. Protective zones (a territory or water area with special conditions of use) are to be arranged along the whole length of a pope-line to minimize the risks of emergency. An owner of a pipe-line is to register the set of permissive documents (a contract of water use) for the use of a water body water area at the site of water crossing as a pre-requisite of its safe operation. However, up to now there is no any unified methodical document to fix the dimensions of the protective area for a pipe-line crossing a water body. Development of the relevant norm/methodical document is necessary for expansion of the spheres of the Water Code of the Russian Federation application, for arranging of relations with a water user, for adoption of pipe-line types classification with indication of the types to be obligatory registered with the grounds for calculation of the protective zone dimensions depending on the hydrological regime and morphometric conditions of water crossing. Proposals for improvement of regulatory/methodical basis for arrangement of a water body water area in order to organize the pipe-line protective zone have been formulated.
