87 forest fires have occurred in the territory served by the Borodulikhinsky aviation department, and these are the Semipalatinsk, Novo-Shulbinsky and Borodulikhinsky branches since the beginning of the fire season. The main reason for which is thunderstorm activity.
Thanks to the timely detection of forest fires from the air and operational interaction during extinguishing with ground forest protection, all fires can be eliminated in extremely small areas and prevent their spread to large, 50 or more hectares.
In total, 217 forest fires occurred on the territory of the Semey Ormany Nature Reserve on 5.08.2022. This is much more than in previous years.
Due to the increase in the cost of renting aircraft, the flight hours limit for air patrol has almost halved. In this regard, it is necessary to reduce the frequency of patrolling.
Uncontrolled visits to the forest by the local population and compliance with fire safety rules in the forest remain relevant.
