At the end of September, Kamchatka surfers began to report a change in the color of the water in the Pacific Ocean on Khalaktyrsky beach. They complained of poor health and chemical burns to the eyes, which affected their vision. Photos of the coast littered with dead marine animals: octopuses, sea urchins and starfish appeared on social networks. Bemorepanda collected 25 dramatic photos.

 

Experts have found in coastal waters the excess of the norm for phenols by 2.5 times and 3.6 times - for petroleum products. Investigation of the state of emergency with the mass death of marine animals in Kamchatka was entrusted to the central office of the TFR.

 

Toxins got into the ocean on the coast of Kamchatka, as a result of which marine animals died and people received burns. The authorities have different versions of what is happening. But most of these versions are questioned by ecologists.

 

The authorities of Kamchatka and federal authorities on Monday tried to explain what happened over the weekend in Kamchatka: hundreds of dead sea animals were washed ashore, and before that, local residents and surfers reported burns and poisoning. The authorities' versions changed, and environmentalists criticized them.

 

According to the federal ministry of natural resources and ecology, on October 4, the content of harmful substances in Avacha Bay (it is an hour's drive from Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky) exceeded the maximum permissible concentration (MPC) by only 1.2 times. At the same time, the excess of the MPC of hazardous substances was recorded only on the territory of the bay, and not on the Khaltyrsky beach, the Ministry of Natural Resources said. It was after swimming on Khaltyrsky beach that local surfers complained of poisoning.

 

Already as of October 5, preliminary test results show no significant excess of the norm, the ministry said on Monday.
