More than 13,000 juvenile chum salmon were released in the Kamchatka Territory. Underyearlings of chum salmon weighing 1.17 grams were farmed at the Paratunsk Experimental Production Salmon Fish Hatchery, and they will be able to enter the Sea of Okhotsk through the Trezubets Stream of the Paratunka River Basin.
Upon request of the Company, juveniles of Atlantic salmon were farmed at the Vygskiy Fish Hatchery in the Republic of Karelia. 7,800 three-year-old salmon, with an average weight of 38 grams, made their way to the Keret River, which flows into the White Sea.
“The restoration of the population of valuable fish species is one of the most important tasks of preserving the world ecosystem. Based on the results of production activities in various regions of Russia, the company actively participates in compensation measures, thereby confirming its status as a responsible subsoil user,” — said Vsevolod Cherepanov, General Director of Gazprom Nedra LLC.
