The second day of the delegation's work was held on the territory of the Tarsky municipal district of the Omsk region. Investors, representatives of executive authorities, and specialists from state support structures are jointly implementing an investment project to launch export-oriented production of birch plywood.
"The project is being supported by specialists from the Omsk Region Development and Investment Agency. Specialists have selected the sites for the Project implementation, and assistance is provided in obtaining the initial permits necessary for construction and installation work within the framework of the Project. At the moment, investors are also considering the implementation of an important investment project for the region – the construction of a modern multifunctional plant for the production of paper bags, namely the manufacture of packaging for building materials and food products. Such a modern production facility will provide various products to many regions of the Russian Federation," said Evgeny Kovtun, General Director of the Agency.
So, today, the delegation members inspected the sites for the shipping terminal for the plywood factory, the pier of the port of Tar, as well as a flyby of forest areas.
It should be noted that the land area of the forest fund in the Omsk region is 5.9 million hectares (42% of the total area of the region). Soft-leaved species predominate - birch, aspen, linden, the reserve of which is estimated at 495 million cubic meters. Up to 14.7 million cubic meters of wood can be mined annually in the Omsk region.
"Timber processing is one of the promising areas. Today, we do not have any large enterprises in this area. We have a lot of free forest resources that need to be used. It is important that Segezha Group enters the Omsk region to build a plywood factory with a large production volume of up to 200 thousand cubic meters per year. This is a modern production facility with a large amount of investment. And, importantly for us, more than 750 jobs will be created," Alexander Burkov, Governor of the Omsk Region, said in a statement.
