Open hatches are an actual problem at this time, as it is very dangerous. Children go to school, adults to study, work, but on the way an open well, respectively, people will not always be careful.
In total, according to the mayor of Saryarka district Arman Turlubek, there are 65 thousand sewage wells on the balance sheet of municipal enterprises of the city, and more than 20 thousand in private territory. Deep wells are a particular threat. Location and operation of them is also diverse, so the approaches to security should be different.
At the same time, the district akim noted that the theft of manhole covers occurs much more often outside the city, and, as a result, it is on the outskirts of the cities that the probability of falling into the well is highest.
According to the akim, metal grilles are installed under the manhole covers. “Astana-Teplotransit” closed thus more than 6 thousand of its wells, “Astana Su Arnasy”, “Astana-REC” and “Kazakhtelecom” also started to install grids, primarily in the area of social facilities and residential buildings.
All points of reception of metal in the capital of 118, of which 20 have already been closed. The mayor cited the example of the capital’s entrepreneur, who on his own initiative identifies open wells, makes covers and closes them. At this time, there are enough events, when students are falling into the well. I want to remind you that on February 20, the body of the missing 13-year-old boy was found in an open sewer well on the fifth day of the search. The examination found that the child fell into the well and died. Residents of Astana began to close the wells on the roads themselves. Recall that the mayor’s office of Astana began to close the wells with additional plastic nets.
