Atyrau Oil Refinery becomes less polluting
ATYRAU. April 27. KAZINFORM. /Andrey Sokolov/ Upon the results of the first quarter of 2009 Atyrau Oil Refinery has significantly reduced its payments for environmental pollution.

For three months of 2009 the enterprise has paid out KZT 7.4 million for environmental damage while in the analogous period of 2008 the outpayments made up KZT 31 million. So the plant does not exceed permitted contaminant emission limits this year.
New processing systems installed at Atyrau plant guarantee compliance with contaminant emission limits. About KZT 2.7 billion was allocated by the plant for environmental programs in 2008.
