Upon the instructions of the President Vladimir Putin, voiced in his address to the Federal Assembly, a detailed audit of all nature conservation areas in Russia will be conducted. On Friday, the head of the Ministry for Natural Resources of Dagestan, Nabiyulla Karachayev, commenting on the President’s message to the Federal Assembly, said that the work on land management in specially protected natural areas will be enhanced in the region.

In total in Dagestan there are 44 regional protected areas and five federal protected regional districts. Cadastral and other land management works on federal objects have been carried out earlier. To date, the cadastral registration, land surveying and other land management work are being conducted in seven PNTs. The similar work will be carried out in four other reserves, this year.

The oldest natural reserve in Russia is the state reserve on the northeast shore of Lake Baikal, created in 1917. Since 1995, Russia has a law on specially protected natural territories, defining these objects as a national treasure.
