«MAINTENANCE WITH HABITATION OF YOUNG FAMILIES»

10 million rubles is used within the program limits at 2009. Efficiency of the program is equal to 90%. 20 from 25 program participants realized opportunities of the program.

«HABITATION on CREDIT FOR 2007-2012»

Within the limits of the program it 3 million rubles from planned 5.6 million ones is spent within the limits of the program. Two companies have already passed as a result of which tens doctors, teachers and other workers of social sphere have celebrated house warming. Now from the program means the percent under the credit taken by the program participant is paid. City Administration suggests interest rate repayment to replace with initial payment.

«THE COMPLEX OF MEASURES AGAINST NARCOTISM»

The program exists since 2007. For this time the city antinarcotics commission coordinating work of law enforcement bodies, public health departments and formations is created. Work with teenagers from so-called risk group is spent. Summer holiday, time employment, tourist meetings, actions «Youth against Drugs» will be organized. For 2009 the region governor decision execution about pupils testing for the drugs using is planned.

«ACCESSIBLE CITY»

The program exists since 2007. At 2009 within the program limits 43 work veterans have a rest and correct for health in "Signal" sanatorium due to the city budget. Ramps at social objects of city are built. The program is completed; term of its action has expired. The new program according to wishes and offers prepares.

«THE COMPLEX PROGRAM AGAINST OFFENCES»

The program uses the federal budget means. Nearby 17 million rubles will be spent up to the end of the year. The work bears fruit – at the summer, 2008 teenage criminality decreases on 10%. Video observation system with the uniform coordination and observant center is planned to create.

«MAJOR REPAIRE of APARTMENT HOUSES»

115.5 million rubles is spent under the program. 25 million from them – means of the city budget.

«The HEALTHY WAY OF LIFE»

More children began to go in for sports. At school #13 the teachers' meeting devoted to this theme has passed.

«ASSISTANCE TO DEVELOPMENT OF SMALL AND AVERAGE BUSINESS»

The program does not work. 6 thousand rubles is spent from planned 12 million.                                                                             ("Obninsk" № 147 (3221) from 17.11.09)

 

THE CITY BUDGET OF 2010

The city budget of 2010 will be reduced in comparison with the budget of 2009 approximately to 12%. The first reading of the city budget will pass on December, 1st, 2009. According to Obninsk vice-mayor on economy: «Reduction of industrial production volumes at 2009 in the Kaluga region is equal to 10%, in Obninsk - 20%. Factories "Ruukki" (the building industry) and "Signal" (the state defensive order) have especially lowered volumes of industrial production. The volume of housing construction in Obninsk has fallen to 47% (in region average on 20%). Investments in comparison with 2008 have decreased on 16%. At inflation of 9.6% the salary has risen on 6% and makes average 17.7 thousand rubles on city. At the large enterprises – 21 thousand rubles (?), on small – 12 thousand rubles (?).The further reduction of housing construction and investments is planned. Growth of industrial production on 4% due to Korean sweets factory input at 2010 is possible. Because of the input new capacities at Samsung and Nestle factories in Vorsino there will be labor outflow. The salary will grow average on 10%, but not for state employees».

The chief of Obninsk finance administration has told that at 2010 the total amount of incomes is planned at a rate of 1.93 billion rubles that approximately on 12% is less than at 2009. Charges will be reduced too - to 13%. But in this forecast investments on Obninsk development as scientific city, grants for major houses repair and reconstruction of the clearing constructions are not considered. If these investments will be made of the federal budget, «decrease in charges will not occur. The budget 2010 will keep the social orientation. All obligations to the citizens, stipulated by legal certificates, will be executed».

Under the city administration forecasts to reach a level of incomes of 2008 budget will be possible not earlier than 2013.                                                                            (Ng-region № 44 from 11.13.09)

 

WE BUILD GARAGES

The Joint-Stock Company "Obninsk Gaz Service" existing since 1993, has developed the project of multi-storey garages in Kabisino. According to Vladimir Rudnev, Director of Joint-Stock Company "Obninsk Gaz Service" new garages are calculated on 300 machines, have servicing deport with a sink and trunk service. The price of one warm garage with a ceiling of 3 meters in height is equal to 450 thousand rubles. Under construction of new garages 1.2 hectares of the ground are allocated. The termination of construction – IV quarter of 2012.                                                                       (Ng-region № 44 from 13.11.09)

 

The Houses Construction: Year After Collapse

   10/22/2009 As the experts believed, Obninsk building branch leaves crisis.

The date of world financial crisis is not known by anybody. Crisis has reached our region later. At 2008 on the October region governor advisory council on accessible habitation there are unpleasant figures here: habitation in Obninsk will be entered one quarter, than it is planned for 2008 - instead of 100 thousand squares only 27 ones have been named.

October of 2008 year. Only for a month the credit rates have flied up from 10-14 % annual up to 25 % and above. Neither usual people, nor the companies do not aspire to invest more in construction with the purpose of resale and reception of the income. The people, ready to get habitation for itself has sharply decreased. The hypothec credit became much more difficult to receive, it is not too clear, that will be with personal incomes – the conversations on universal reduction of the staff. The collapse. The building doomsday.

The analysts spoke, that the soap bubble of the real estate at last has busted, that the prices for habitation tomorrow will fall off, referred to even figures - nearby 25-30 thousand rbl. for square meter. The analysts referred that building materials will be cheaper, demand will decrease.

How such the forecasts were justified? It is impossible to find habitation at the price of 25 thousand roubles for square meter. This week Anatoly Artamonov, the governor has told about the regional market of the real estate literally the following: «The prices have fallen very little, but demand has stopped». Two or three months back he called citizens to buy habitation under the today's prices - «they any more will not be low».

But the economy is obstinate also it will not be corrected by the instructions. One year ago market prices for the Obninsk real estate made 63-70 thousand rbl. for square meter, today they have decreased on the average - up to 55-60 thousand. Speech about the price of 25-30 thousand roubles in the market does not go.

To a word, one year ago we have suggested the building companies to act with the estimation of a situation. Contrary to forecasts of analysts they have declared: falling of the prices for habitation construction will not be. Other script will come true: the companies stopped the construction, having kept a high price level - the construction economy does not allow "to fall" considerably. In conditions of inaccessible credits and absence of money at the population only such succession of events is possible. This script has happened past year.

The today's diagnosis

October of 2009. Builders speak: the market has quickened. However, they do not build illusions and do not expect the last rates of habitation construction. Though the statistics is optimistically enough.

At 2009 in Obninsk two multiroom houses will be commissioned. They are the house in 38 microdistrict on 180 apartments the area more than 13.5 thousand sq. m. (the builder "PEAK-WEST") and the house on crossing of Belkinskaya and Lenin Streets on 224 apartments a total area almost 13.2 thousand sq. m. (the builder "SMU"Mosoblstroy”). Besides the input nearby of 8.5 thousand sq. m. of individual habitation is planned in settlements Peace, Obninsk, Belkino, etc. For comparison: the builders have entered hardly more than 31 thousand sq. m. per 2006, nearby 76.5 thousand sq. m. per 2007, 27 ones per the past one.

Past year instead of 100 thousand square meters of habitation they have constructed only 27 ones. The year break was sharply reduced: instead of 43 thousand under the plan there are 35 ones here. And in comparison with the last year - even growth.

Today on one Russian on the average it is necessary 20 sq. m. of habitation. To a word, in the West this specification above: in Norway - 74 sq. m., the USA - 70, Germany – 50, in the countries of the East Europe - 35. To leave on the European level, the country should enter within 15-20 years 210 million sq. m. of habitation. Proceeding from it, the government of the Russian Federation had been developed the long-term program till 2020 according to which every year it is supposed to enter 80 million sq. m. of habitation. But the available housing grows old. Thus, in the country there is a huge demand for the real estate.

Today in Obninsk with the population of 105 thousand people the available housing makes nearby 2.2 million sq. m. that is hardly above statistics on the country. Within the limits of the long-term program the input of habitation should make 1 sq. m. on one inhabitant of the country. For our city - 100 thousand square meters of habitation. At 2007 we have not sufficed up to this figure a little.

The situation in the market of habitation on the autumn of 2008 became the extremely astable. Sharp falling of demand has occurred - volumes of hypothec credits have decreased. The credit rates have increased up to 21-23 %. From the beginning of autumn of the last year the prices for habitation have decreased on 10-15 %, the prices for elite habitation have decreased on 20-30 %.

Construction profitability does not allow the prices to fall below, differently it becomes negative. Besides many building organizations have closed the programs. So, ready habitation will be less, and the potential demand is kept at a former level.

At formation of the budget for 2009, despite of all complexities with the city budget, former priorities have been kept. We could finance branch at a level of 2008, and it almost 600 million rbl. The question is, including large programs: granting of habitation to participants of the Second World War, modernization of an engineering infrastructure, repair of schools and kindergartens and other.

ONLY THE FACTS

For today in Obninsk the ground areas over 100 hectares on which it is planned to construct about 700 thousand sq. m. of habitation are generated under construction multi-storey and low-storey houses. They are northern part of 38 microdistricts, public city centre, 55-th microdistrict, territory near Shatskogo Street, 51-st microdistrict at crossing Belkinskaya and Lenin Streets, Komsomol and Park Streets, settlement Peace, houses in Belkino.

Such facts allow administration, to look ahead with optimism.

Opening of Medical-Diagnostic Centre of Kaluga Branch «Microsurgery of an Eye» by Name of S. Fedorov

   10.15.2009   V. Baburin, the assistant to Kaluga region governor, Y. Kondratyev, Kaluga region Minister of Health, N. Shubin, the chapter of Obninsk Administration and A.Tereshchenko, director of Kaluga branch «Microsurgery of An Eye», the main Kaluga region ophthalmologist.

The works on the organization the Medical-Diagnostic Centre in Obninsk have been lead under A.Artamonov's initiative, the governor of Kaluga region with active assistance of Obninsk Administration. Now, as a result of combined efforts of the regional and the city authority, inhabitants of Obninsk and the next territories can receive the qualitative ophthalmologic help near to a place of the residing.

The Obninsk branch has the hi-tech equipment similar to one that is used in the Kaluga branch: full diagnostic line, laser and classical operational with an opportunity to carry out operation. Leading ophthalmologists of Kaluga region with wide experience of work, among which S. Romanenko, the deputy director of Kaluga branch MNTK, the candidate of medical sciences and P. Володин, the doctor of medical sciences will operate patients.

For today the branch in Obninsk is ready to execute the order for surgery of a cataract on Fund of obligatory medical insurance on 300-500 operations per year. As a whole opportunity of operative activity of branch within a year make about 2000 operations, that is equal to activity of Kaluga regional hospital eye branch.  

As the statistics has shown the ophthalmologic help concerns to the most necessary medical services. Annually 1250 people from Obninsk address for consultation to Kaluga branch, and the number of the people operated there for last 10 years has made 5080 person, including - 526 children.

On behalf of inhabitants of a word of gratitude to address of Kaluga region governor, members of the regional Government and representatives of medical circles were said by Nikolay Shubin, the chapter of Obninsk Administration. He has noted that the creation in Obninsk highly technological medical institution is very important for city. Owing to care of authority, the townspeople can quickly receive qualitative medical aid of the competent experts using the advanced methods of diagnostics and treatment of eye diseases. As a whole Nikolay Shubin has estimated the organization of Obninsk branch as the important event on realization of the actions directed on comfort of residing in Obninsk.

After the end of opening ceremony for visitors the excursion on premises of branch with visiting the procedural cabinet and the operational block has been organized.                                    (obninsk.ru)

 

About Programs «Habitation for Young» And «Habitation on Credit 2007-2016»

   10/15/2009   For two years the program of youth habitation works. Already 49 families realized grants - data of Administration housing department for today are those. 28 families have bought the apartments in Obninsk, 10 families have bought habitation in the other cities, and 11 families have constructed own houses, and 7 from them live in Kabitsino.

It would seem, in housing sphere there is a lot of problems here: the municipal habitation is not under construction, turn huge, people take the rights to apartments from the court... But grants at last have put business in the motion, having enabled youth to solve the habitation question. And, by the way, the temp of Obninsk program stands by is considered very well. At the first year 33 families participated in the program, at 2008 - already they are twice more - 66. Now 286 young families participate in the program. They annually are affirmed by region on the reception of social payment. If per 2007 participants at once have received all money the serious turn now was formed. Anyway, Obninsk to be proud, such program works far not in all cities.

Obninsk has incurred the most part of obligations on the program performance. Financing of the program develops of three components: federal money, regional and cities. For two years for grants they spent 30 million. The city has given the most part from them - 14.8 million rub.

Obninsk - one of few cities realizing the municipal program «Habitation on Credit 2007-2016». Families can participate in it irrespective of age. The main thing - that one of family’s member has to work at social budgetary sphere: for example, the tutor of a kindergarten, the teacher at school, the doctor. Also since 2009 in the program large families have the right to participate too. Participants of the program can take the credit for habitation in banks, and the city budget compensates them the rate under the credit.

At the first campaign, at 2008 year, 20 families have improved the living conditions. In total they have got about 560 sq. m. of habitation. The year, despite of complex financial situation in the country, in the program 38 families have taken part, and 15 families have already received new apartments: 5 doctors, 8 teachers and 2 large families. And the people long stood in a queue on municipal habitation.                          (ngregion.ru)

 

Obninsk Deputies Will Consider New «Road Rules» for City Fixed-Route Taxis At The End of October

   10.10.2009   «The Rules of The Regular Transportation Organization of Obninsk City Population» are developed at Obninsk Consumer Market Management. According to "Rules", first, each city route will be exposed by Administration on competition. That carrier, who will win in competition, will carry people. And, on one route the work at once two carriers is inadmissible. Secondly, the fixed schedule of movement will be established for the fixed-route taxis. They cannot go, as wish and to wait for half an hour on railroad station waiting when the electric train from Moscow will come. Similar measures as the developers consider, will allow removing not accredited fixed-route taxis from city streets. Thirdly, on city transport card will return the "forgotten" routes, which fixed-route taxis till now ignored: streets Lyashenko, Zvezdnaya, Guryanov.

However, all the questions connected with change or closing of those or other routes will be carried out only necessarily. By results of the passenger stream inspection or in cases of passenger life threat.

It is very important, that the carrier which has gained competition on this or that route has no right to change or cancel routes, train diagrams and tariffs for transportation. They can make offers only. As if to carrier duties in "Rules" there are 14 items are totaled there. At close reading there are usual norms of behavior in a civilized society there, but only on wheels. As "Rules" are made in strict conformity with federal laws and other statutory acts of the Russian Federation, and also, according to normative legal certificates of the Kaluga region and Obninsk.

And still. On the railroad station the order is induced quite decent. Cleanly, any transport crush is not present, the public toilet regularly works, and in the near future for taxi drivers the special room of rest will be equipped. 

Business remains for small - behind unanimity of deputies of City Assembly which will consider and will accept new rules.                      (ngregion.ru)

 

Modern Engineering Decisions at Construction of Apartment Houses

   10/12/2009 The seminar with such name took place in Obninsk on October, 09th, 2009. Representatives of the city municipal economy, heads of the operating companies and the building organizations, and also experts of the enterprises making devices for the account of power resources, have taken part in the seminar.

The questions, concerning applications of the modern technologies in housing and municipal sphere owing to which the high degree of comfort in each apartment is reached, and also significant economy of the electric power, water, gas and other resources by tenants were considered there.

Experience of “Mosoblstroy” company which has constructed some apartment houses in Obninsk at which the special electronic and computer equipment is applied has shown, that the means using at management of municipal networks of the houses guarantees to the consumer high quality of housing and municipal services at an optimum expenditure of resources. So, for example, new engineering technologies provide to tenants a number of useful services: regulation of temperature in the premises depending on temperature of external air and its maintenance at a constant level, automatic gathering of the electric power counter indication, uniformity of the apartments heating irrespective of a floor and other convenience. Thus, according to “Mosoblstroy” company, due to competent management of water supply system the water consumption for a year has been reduced by 40% almost here. 

During the lectures it was emphasized, that the modern technologies saving up energy can be partially applied in an old available housing. The operating companies should pay special attention to this question.
 After the end of a theoretical part excursion in the multi-storey house on Lenin Street where
“Mosoblstroy” company representatives have shown the opportunities of modern systems, it has been organized for participants of a seminar.

Museum on The Basis of Institute of Physics and Power Engineering, Obninsk

   In Obninsk a preparation for creation of the Branch memorial complex on the basis of the first-ever atomic power station are completed. It will be placed on the Institute of Physics and Power Engineering platform.  Now the nuclear reactor is in a mode of a conclusion from operation, and the atomic power station keep as a monument of a science and technics. Owing to the atomic power station Obninsk became known all over the world, the innovations developed at its creation, have laid down in a basis of the atomic engineering. The expanded museum exposition which opens in the station’s building also will tell about it. It is supposed, that the excursion route will borrow about an hour. It provides visiting a viewing platform of the reactor hall and the operational panel premise.

Representatives of the nuclear branch are convinced that the branch requires inflow of qualified personnel and it is necessary to involve employees in it from a school bench - for city important that the youth did not leave from it. Besides the similar centers promote the formation of the loyal attitude of the population to the atomic engineering.
 “The station completely to lead to norm radiating conditions, some more years is required, - Valery Poplavko, The Assistant to The General Director - Chief Engineer speaks. - But in the building where the first atomic power station is placed, the safe route for visitors for a long time is already laid.
 The Museum complex will be opened on behalf of Dmitry Medvedev, the President of the Russian Federation as a monument of domestic achievements of the scientific and technical idea. Except for a memorial complex in territory of the regime enterprise the educational center outside the closed zone will be created also.

Putin Approved FTP Concept on New Nuclear Power Technologies

(The full text in Russin click here)

   July 30 Prime Minister Vladimir Putin approved a concept of the federal target program “Nuclear Power Technologies of New Generation for 2010-2015 and until 2020”.

According to the directive by the Head of the Government, SC Rosatom determined the state customer for the program, which federal budget financing will amount to RUB110.428bn.

SC Rosatom has been charged to draft the program and submit it for the governmental review.

The concept lists main problems of the Russian nuclear power, including large and continuously growing amount of spent nuclear fuel and radioactive waste, ineffective utilization of natural uranium reserves, as well as potential drop of scientific priority of the Russian nuclear power and competitiveness of nuclear products in the world market.

“The consolidation of efforts on the development of nuclear power technologies of new generation basing on fast neutron reactors and closed nuclear fuel cycle will ensure solving the said problems,” the document says.

At the first stage (2010-2014) it is expected to develop designs of fast neutron reactors with lead, lead-bismuth and sodium coolants and start up process complexes to fabricate uranium-plutonium oxide fuel for fast neutron reactors.

It is planned that in this period a detailed construction design will be developed of a multi-purpose fast neutron research reactor along with a neutrino detector for reactor core diagnostics and a facility to produce dispersed composite materials for reactor applications.

At the second stage (2015-2020) it is planned to build pilot demonstration lead- and lead-bismuth-cooled fast neutron reactors, as well as a multi-purpose fast neutron research reactor MBIR (to replace existing research reactors which have exhausted their service lives).

Also, it is planned to commission an industrial complex for fabrication of dense fuel for fast neutron reactors. In addition, it is expected to complete the construction of a pilot demonstration complex to test closed fuel cycle technologies. This period also includes upgrades at controlled nuclear fusion research facilities and construction a thermonuclear complex Baikal.

A limit (projected) amount of the program financing in 2010-2015 and until 2020 will be RUB128.3bn, the document says.

Of this amount, RUB110.4bn will be allocated by the federal budget with RUB51bn to be spent for research and development and RUB59.4bn for capital investments.

Extrabudgetary sources are expected to raise RUB17.9bn.

 

THE PROJECT

   George Ilia Toshinski, project head of Lead-Bismuth Fast Reactors (LBFR), the adviser of IPPE’s general director, Dr.Sci.Tech:
 «The Construction in Obninsk trial power block LBFR-75/100 will allow fixing leading position of Russia in one of nuclear power perspective directions.

The first application for leadership in this area became start-up on an industrial platform of Institute for Physics and Power Engineering, Obninsk (IPPE) in December, 1958 of nuclear power installation with lead-bismuth coolant. It intended for nuclear submarines. With such installation it has been constructed eight nuclear submarines and two ground stands-prototypes (on them 12 reactors were maintained).

We have started to engage the nuclear power installations with liquid-metal coolants under direction of A.I.Lejpunski in 1951. Then both at us and to the USA at a construction of reactors on fast neutrons the preference was given to sodium coolant. Sodium allocates heat, than an alloy lead-bismuth better, but burns on air and blows up at contact to water. It has compelled to search for other heat-removing environment for nuclear submarine reactors. The alloy lead-bismuth concedes to sodium in heat conductivity, but is chemically inert and safe in circulation. This circumstance has defined a choice in favor of this coolant at construction of submarines which have gone to a series since 1976. They are better the American nuclear submarines on speed and maneuver abilities and were impregnable for torpedoes.

On the basis of the experience received at operation of Soviet nuclear submarine reactors given type, IPPE’s experts have developed innovative nuclear technology of modular fast reactors with lead-bismuth coolant. In abbreviated form they are named LBFR. They have got a small size that allows making completely them at a factory and to transport by rail. In ready kind LBFR is transported on a platform and it is finally mounted there. Electric power of one unit - 100 megawatt. They can be typed in the further as from cubes down to 1000 megawatt.

Such nuclear installations are unique on the safety because in them there is no internal superfluous pressure. One more important advantage of such reactors - is wide machine-building base for their batch production. Cases are thin-walled here, steam and gas generators - tiny, pumps less complex, than for reactors of other types. As a result, as have shown the design works, the electricity made by modular nuclear stations, can be cheaper. And it is one more plus in competitive struggle in the market».                       (newsreda.ru)

 

PLANS OF CONSTRUCTION

   8/6/2009   Inhabitants of Obninsk who plans to solve the apartment question, prefer to build individual houses. By the way, their construction costs much more cheaply, than the many apartment houses. Obninsk will be surrounded by areas with low- altitude houses which already now are in a stage of construction: Kabitsino, Belkino, and Zaovrazie

These areas will give to Obninsk more "patriarchal" kind though, certainly, very much it would be desirable that architectural mistakes have not repeated here: the city does not be decorated, when everyone builds, without building tendencies. It would be desirable any style unity. As to Zaovrazie, it will be micro district with the center in which are planned 7-9-flow apartments, and individual cottages of uniform style will settle down on periphery.

Due time we spoke there is no such concept - city centre in Obninsk. But now in city its central axis - Marx's prospectus is already generated. Along it high-altitude houses with underground parking will be under construction, 55-th micro district will counterbalance the left part of the prospectus. And it will be high-grade city quarter, with a kindergarten and school. And construction of a sports zone opposite to the House of Scientists will finish this axis. The Ice Palace and descent to Protva River will be constructed also. And if to speak about the near future, the big trading-entertaining complex will open in 51А micro district to the end of the year which will architecturally unite adjoining territories and will help to organize the central part of Obninsk.

Our city was planned during Soviet time when it was impossible to expect, that in Obninsk there will be a huge motor-vehicle pool of personal transport. If to look in any court yard, we shall see, that the machines could not be put simply … except for as on lawns. And so should not be. Therefore in the future it would be desirable to see court yard in which there will be enough place for a guest parking. And already now we work above somehow to facilitate the developed situation: the parking in 55-th micro district will be soon put in operation there, the construction of the similar parking begun in 51-th micro district.

That the city became even more comfortable, there should be a plenty of objects of social purpose in it, such, for example, as new fitness-center in Okridzh parkway. On the one hand, it benefits citizens’ health, and from the point of builders view - the parkway has received architectural end. In general there are places which could decorate it in our city, - it is necessary to put into order them only. For example, the area near Institute Gidro-Meteo-Information. Very interesting small architectural forms, retaining walls, a fountain, and beautiful trees are located there. This place could become remarkable vacation spot of our townspeople. The forest belt which settles down from Aksenova Street now represents absolutely unattractive show. Between Institute Meteo Information and the Medical Science Centre of the youth park with platforms for concerts will be constructed. It is an ideal place - any residential buildings, and noise to anybody would not stir. Other park will be constructed in a wood near Kurchatov Street and the Medical Science Centre, the busts of the great scientists worked in Obninsk, will be established there, and also paths will be laid, beds are landed.

In city the work under the national project «Accessible and Comfortable Habitation» proceeds. This year in Obninsk 32 thousand sq. m. of habitation is planned to commission.

Input of apartment houses is planned for the third and fourth quarters of current year. Now firm "PEAK-WEST" conducts building construction № 7, 8 and 10 on Kurchatov Street, in northern part of 38-th micro district. The house №8 will be handed over at September of this year, №7 - at January of 2010, and № 10 - at December. They in aggregate will give nearby 25 thousand sq. m. of habitation. Besides SMU «MosOblStroy» will finish the house construction of the house on crossing Lenin Street and Belkinskaj Street. At the first half-year of 2009 in the city it is already transferred in operation nearby 5 thousand sq. m. of individual habitation. The house construction for veterans of Great Domestic war in area Shatskiy Street is conducted. There are 58 such families in the city.

In total in Obninsk today the ground areas over 100 hectares are given by the area under construction multi-storey and low-storey apartment houses on which it is planned to construct about 700 thousand square meters of habitation.

Behind these dry figures there is very much a greater work of City Administration profile experts and builders, beginning from concepts of building, projects of lay-out, specifications on connection and many other things.

The most problem objects – the clearing constructions and the faecal collector. Their reconstruction demands significant financial assets. The existing collector has been built in 60th years. Naturally, it not only physically, but also is morally obsolete - it cannot accept faecal drains from again under micro district construction. The question of the collector construction has risen very sharply several years ago. The project of expansion and reconstruction of clearing constructions has passed all coordination, has received the positive conclusion of ecological examination. Construction goes to two stages. First we lay a collector from city clearing constructions up to 55-th micro district a modern tunnel method. Then - turn of the second stage - construction of a pressure head collector by the open way.

As to maintenance of the townspeople with potable water, today it is completely solved - construction Dobrin water-fence has come to the end. At the same time, the planned construction rates of new city micro districts, realization of other city investment projects cannot be provided by capacities of water-fences operating in the city. But also this question is close to the sanction. Works on development of engineering-geological researches and the coordination of Zhukov water-fence project are already paid.

 For today the 250 objects of city engineering infrastructure are on the account in Obninsk building complex. Each of these objects has the social importance for comfortable residing our inhabitants. Works on the majority of objects are carried out.

In a zone of innovative construction development on Red Dawn Street of 14 innovative oriented enterprises is supposed. Today the works on a lining of the main highway, the storm water drain, designing of engineering networks are conducted. Certainly, with these enterprises the city will receive new development, including new workplaces will be created.

From civil objects: very large project - a trading-entertaining complex on Marx Street with a total area more than 60 thousand sq. m., prospective term of commissioning - the end of this year. With input of the given object the city will receive qualitatively new service and new workplaces.

Under the French Mark

   Development of the Obninsk center of scientific technologies will act on the markets of the Europe, the truth, with the French label in the near future.

The Obninsks have arrived to Limoges right at the beginning of April. Prospects of the further cooperation depend on visit. Obninsk seriously studies idea of occurrence on the markets of the European Union with the innovations. On a plan, in France the joint venture which will be engaged in sale of high technology production with the French label and Russian "ideology" will be created.

Today the rate is made on two installations: one carries out a ultra-violet irradiation of the potato, the second - disinfection of medical waste.
 The ultra-violet irradiation of vegetables in the Russian device has shown very good results-volume of waste was reduced to four fifth. And all because processing of root crops does not put to them harm, but nocuous bacteria and mushrooms are destroyed.

In France recently huge harm to agriculture is put with a tropical bacterium which destroys up to third of potato crop. If one field is amazed by this bacterium, destroy crops on all fields. Therefore the attention of the Frenchmen to Obninsk development is quite explainable.

Through Obninsk installation in French company GROSEP has passed four parties of a potato infected by a dangerous bacterium, now it check in special bacteriological laboratory.
 Besides have irradiated 200 kg of a high-quality potato which have already planted on eight various fields, the result will be known in the autumn.

Obninsk assigns even greater hopes to installations on disinfecting medical waste. They already for a long time have proved in usual, and in very prestigious clinics in Moscow and a number of Russian regions. Moreover, our installations are used in the western countries.

In France clinics pay for recycling from 500 up to 30 000 euros per month therefore our installation even in the worst case will pay back in a year.
 We have agreed to create with the Frenchmen co production. It will be located in France, on microwave ovens there will be a French mark, and the accessories and the know-how - ours.

On passage of necessary certification 7-8 months will leave, and then products will act on the western market. "Updating" of installation on disinfecting medical waste will prepare in parallel. In France they have wished a product which not only disinfects, but also crushes dangerous waste. The nurse puts a package with waste in a tank for disinfection, and then waste act in "meat grinder" which is in the same case of a product.                         (newsreda.ru)

 

PROSPECTS OF THE RUSSIAN NUCLEAR POWER

(Victor Alekseev, Dr.Sci.Tech., the chief of IPPE's laboratory)

Please download Java(tm). Increase in a share of atomic engineering in power balance of Russia up to 30 % to 2020 represents a challenge. What complexities face to Russia and other countries which have staked atomic engineering and how them to overcome?

Business is not only in exhaustion of organic fuel. Resources can appear sufficient on the nearest one hundred years, considering oil under sand, the Arctic shelf and Antarctica. There is one more important circumstance. It will be in unit of time necessary to extract, but, the main thing to deliver up to the consumer such quantity of organic power resources (oil, gas, coal) with which no transport will get up. If to consider the political problems, stirring to transportation (they can be observed in Ukraine, Belarus, at construction of a gas main on a bottom of Baltic sea), and also force-major circumstances (ethnogeny explosions, earthquakes, diversions, etc.), the future power should be under construction to a regional attribute where the transport component and for transportation of fuel, and for transportation of energy to the consumer does not play a main role in maintenance of power safety. Except for the power using local power resources (as a rule, renewed), only the atomic engineering possessing resources on some thousand of years answered such conditions.

However to 2020-2030 from the point of view of a share of atomic engineering in the power generation a little that will change, as these years the mass conclusion from operation of the blocks which have fulfilled the terms will be observed, and the industry practically all countries using the atomic power station, in the specified terms cannot create the equipment and construct power which would exceed a today's level.

Same, in my opinion, concerns to Russia. Perhaps, even in a greater measure as for 1990th the Russian infrastructure necessary for construction of the atomic power station, has been essentially destroyed, personnel maintenance of branch, since builders and finishing employees from applied science, is not enough both by quantity and on quality. The share of atomic engineering in electricity generation to 2030 will make 20-30 %.

If Russia will not be engaged in supply by uranium of the foreign blocks constructed under the Russian projects, domestic stocks with the indispensable purchase of raw material abroad (for example, in Kazakhstan) will be enough for maintenance of PWR-1000 type blocks entered according to plans.

To 2030 there should be some first commercial blocks of the atomic power station with reactors on fast neutrons (BN). It will allow to use, first, the saved up irradiated nuclear fuel from reactors PWR-1000 (partially and from RBMC-1000) for secondary use after its processing (is more exact, regenerations). Secondly, the operating time in active zones of BN reactors of superfluous plutonium is the beginning of a new resource using at which new balances of sharing materials which, finally, will define both quantity, and the nomenclature of new atomic power stations after 2040-2050 will operate.

Do to do the remote forecasts is easier, than to answer a concrete question, how many blocks will be put into operation, for example, in following year? For Russia and the world nuclear industry as a whole the nearest become rather indicative the year or two: whether it will be possible to untwist a huge flywheel of the atomic power station construction and in due time to realize the declared plans or they and will remain on a paper? On preparation of a corresponding infrastructure for normal atomic engineering functioning, according to IAEA, 10-12 years are required. Whether the countries which now amicably declare intentions to build the atomic power station, from the plans will refuse, having collided with inevitable organizational, financial, legal, personnel and other problems?

All the listed difficulties at a construction of nuclear stations together with the limited nuclear equipment potential, especially for the equipment with a long cycle of manufacturing, are not an absolute obstacle. All this has already been in world atomic engineering. The statistics prompts, that at 70ths of the last century 162 power reactors by the general power nearby 120 BnWatt have been built, next decade 176 reactors by the general electric power approximately 190 BnWatt are constructed. And from the beginning of 90ths of the last century till now in commercial operation in the world 19 (!) power units (consequences of failures on Three-mile Island and in Chernobyl) are entered only. Practically 20, and in the USA all 30 years of inactivity! From here there is absence of continuity, both in the industry, and in preparation of qualified personnel for nuclear branch as a whole here.

One more factor which can prevent realizations of arrogant plans, are real long terms of licensing (2-3 years) and constructions (7-10 years) of the atomic power station.

Traditionally slow rates solve legal and financial problems of harmonization of the domestic and international legislation on such thorny questions, as a civil liability for nuclear damage, intellectual property, and insurance of risks. Especially they are actual now at creation of joint ventures, strategic alliances, the international centers with other states, construction of nuclear objects abroad.

In February, 2008 the government of Russia had been approved the General scheme of accommodation of electric power industry objects. The base variant provides introduction in build of 137 BnWatt new blocks up to 2020, thus on a share of atomic engineering it is necessary about 25 % - input of 37 nuclear blocks. In the maximal variant the share of atomic engineering will make about 30 % due to input of 42 nuclear blocks.

Now there is a development of new development Strategy of atomic engineering to Russia. As the purposes such levels of achievement of the total nuclear power units are accepted: 100 BnWatt to 2030 and 300 BnWatt to 2050. At achievement of this nuclear power share in manufacture of electricity in Russia will exceed 30 %.

Natural uranium deposits in Russia are enough for development of atomic engineering on thermal reactors up to 2030. Further mass fast neutron reactor input with short circuit of a nuclear fuel cycle of atomic engineering is necessary.

According to the general scheme to Russia should be entered up to 2012 on one power unit into a year, from 2012 to 2014 - on two power units and, since 2015, - a minimum on three nuclear power units in a year. Total amount of power input from 2009 to 2020 should make a minimum 32 thousand MnWatt. For the same period 3.7 thousand MnWatt of old power will be deduced from operation and then the general nuclear station power of Russia to 2020 will make more than 51 thousand MnWatt. Annual development of the electric power on the atomic power station for this period will grow with today's 150 billion kw-h per year up to 380 billion kw-h per year.

In the first years charges on realization of so scale investment program halve approximately between the federal budget and own means of Rosenergoatom concern. In the further the share of concern’s means will increase, and after 2015 the investment from the federal budget are not provided at all.

Except for serial construction of power units with PWR type reactors of 1150 MnWatt electric power, the program stipulates the input of #4 Beloyarsk power unit by 800 MnWatt electric power with fast neutron reactor (BN-800) at 2012. In opinion of experts, this technology is the future of atomic engineering. Russia and today borrows the lead position in this area, and with input of BN-800 and standing the closed fuel cycle by when after regeneration the fulfilled fuel again comes back in a reactor, Russia, certainly, this leadership will fix. On the basis of experience which we expect to receive on the Beloyarsk atomic power station, it will be possible to speak seriously about plans for development of atomic engineering in second half XXI century

There is curious project of the floating atomic power station by 70 MnWatt power here. The head sample of such station should be stood in Severodvinsk by at 2010. There are bases to assume, this project to have got the big future not only in the Russian North, but also abroad. Except for the electric power, the floating atomic power station is capable to release heat and to be a basis for creation of water-desalinating complexes.

It is necessary to note, that financial maintenance of the program of atomic engineering development about which it has been told above, is not today solving fact of its successful realization. There is the resource maintenance of the program on the first place there. There are needs in experts, maintenance with materials and the equipment there.

The vital issue is an absence of precise, clear policy under the reference from the fulfilled nuclear fuel. If it will not be solved a question with centralized (some centers in the world) long-term controllable storages of the fulfilled nuclear fuel the countries, for the first time started to use atomic engineering in the limited volume, at once have a problem of the fulfilled nuclear fuel saving. Presence of the big number of the fulfilled nuclear fuel storehouses disseminated on the different countries and territories with different geographical conditions without understanding, what to do further with it, increases risk of radiating incidents.

Opportunity to render services on import of the fulfilled nuclear waste without obligatory return of radioactive waste - the greatest advantage of the Russian suppliers of fuel (which, naturally, follows of the Russian reactor project). After realization of the pilot floating atomic power station project Russia can offer the leasing of the atomic power station solving as problem of fulfilled nuclear fuel, as problem of the atomic power station removal from operation entirely (it is not necessary dismantle, deactivation, gathering and burring of radioactive wastes). Such opportunities already involve potential customers from Indonesia, India and even China. In Russia the projects are developed (while only conceptual) the atomic power station of low power (3-10 MnWatt), with integrated design, high safety, easy transportable, which have more than 10 years intervals between overloads, practically do not demand the constant operational personnel. It also attractive enough offer for many countries.

For the serial atomic power stations of type PWR-1000 the Russian suppliers and the Russian projects do not have the basic advantages. There is a rigid competition in this sector of the market.

Construction of the atomic power station is a project in some billions euro cost and long time for return of investments. By estimations of experts, average cost of the established 1 KW power makes more than 2000 EURO and grows fast rates.

Now the companies are interested not simply in the construction, but in the management of nuclear stations, and sale of the electric power. But even means from sale of the end production - the electric power - will not suffice for maintenance of the adjacent enterprises of the nuclear fuel cycle, first of all for safe handling of the fulfilled nuclear fuel and radioactive waste. Without organizational and financial support of the State the atomic engineering development, especially at the initial stage, hardly probably.

Now Russia builds abroad more atomic power station, than any other country. By present time to the customer in China two power units with NWR-1000 reactors on Tyanvansk atomic power station are put in operation, the arrangement on additional blocks on this platform construction is reached. The construction works on Kudankulam atomic power station in India of two power units with PWR-1000 reactors are conducted at the final stage; the negotiations about a construction of additional blocks on the same platform are begun. The works on Busher atomic power station in Iran come to the end. The works on Benbane atomic power station construction in Bulgaria begin. Russia prepares for participation in tenders for the atomic power station construction in a number of the countries, including Belarus, Egypt, Turkey, etc.

By present time the Russian Open Society Company TVEL delivers nuclear fuel in 14 countries for 74 nuclear blocks. In the near future Open Society TVEL plans to leave for the world market with fuel for PWR reactors. In plans of the company to borrow up to 30 % of the world market to 2010. The reliability of Open Society TVEL production has well proved abroad. It is enough to note, that Finland and Czech have made a decision to replace the manufacturer of fuel Westinghouse with Open Society TVEL for Loviiza and Temelin blocks.

On technology of uranium enrichment Russia has a conclusive priority in the world. At the Russian enterprises there is a replacement of the equipment by centrifuges of 8-th generation which has more high efficiency. There is a development of 9th and 10th generation machines. The Americans have gone on a way of creation very much greater up critical, 15-meter machines. Russia has gone on a way of the creation of small machines – half meter order which are completed in the unit from 20 machines.

The international cooperation in branch is inevitable, if we wish to have competitive production further. In Russia even in trial scale the burial place of highly radioactive waste is not realized till now, while in a number of the countries similar objects are already maintained. Us to be what to take from partners regarding the automated control systems of technological processes and the instrument making, separate kinds of the dimensional equipment. So, at the atomic power station construction in China Atomstroyexport closely cooperated with French company Areva and German concern Siemens. Cooperation will be continued and at the atomic power station construction in Bulgaria. There are 4-5 large transnational holdings which divide among themselves the world market of nuclear technologies in the world today as a matter of fact.

Russia has a doubtless priority in the world, - technology of uranium enrichment and technology fast neutron reactors with liquid-metal coolants, it is necessary to give them all-round attention for continuous development in further.
