The implementation of the federal project to preserve Lake Baikal has faced serious challenges, as reported by the press service of the Deputy Prime Minister of Russia, Alexei Gordeev.

Following the meeting with the executors of the national project, it is noted that other initiatives of the Ecology national project are being implemented on schedule.

«Serious difficulties arose during the implementation of the federal project «Preservation of Lake Baikal». The government is looking for ways to prevent the risks of failure,» the report said. Further information is not specified.

In early December, Russian Prime Minister, Dmitry Medvedev, announced that the reconstruction of wastewater treatment facilities in Buryatia as part of a federal project to preserve Lake Baikal was unacceptably slow. The prime minister added that the documentation necessary to start the liquidation of damage caused by the Baikal Pulp and Paper Mill has not yet been developed.
