Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is the process of identifying the type of environmental hazard, its intensity, impact on the natural environment and human habitat. Full monitoring of the EIA includes not only the study of the impact on the external environment of the designed facility, but also the identification of alternative types of management, the study of the ecological and resource potential of the area, as well as the preparation of EIA reports.
According to legislative requirements, an EIA project on the analysis of negative impact is developed for each industrial or processing facility under construction (for legal entities and individuals) and must be approved by the expert examination: the territorial expert environmental commission, the department of the Ministry of Agriculture and Environmental Protection of Turkmenistan and the department of the State Committee for Ecology.
The development of the EIA project and the environmental expertise of the project are aimed at identifying and preventing adverse environmental consequences of economic activities, as well as with the aim of developing and carrying out environmental protection measures with the participation of investments of natural resources users.
In the event of violations related to EIA, legal entities are liable in accordance with the Code of Administrative Offenses of Turkmenistan, which provides for the imposition of fines in the amount of 400 to 500 minimum wages, depending on the type of violations.
Environmental impact assessment
EIA is carried out for:
• studying the nature and determining the level of danger of the possible impact of future economic activities on the environment and human health;
• reducing adverse effects or preventing activities that are dangerous to humans and nature;
• assessments of the environmental, social and economic consequences of hazardous impacts.
The EIA project is being developed in three stages.
Stages of development of the EIA Project
EIA development activities
Stage 1
Preparation of technical specifications for the design, collection and analysis of initial data. The terms of use must be agreed in the bodies of environmental state expertise.
Stage 2
Development of a project with an indication of the sources of environmental pollution of the construction area, assessment of the identified and expected impacts and the development of recommendations for mitigating or preventing adverse environmental impacts.
Stage 3
Consideration of project documentation and environmental expertise of projects in state control bodies.
Coordination of the EIA examination
Environmental expertise is one of the types of expert activities of state control bodies for making decisions on permitting the implementation of projects. The environmental expertise of the EIA is based on the assessment of the future activities of the facility, its impact on the environment and the population, analysis of the environmental, social and economic conditions of the facility.
The company “Keyik Mirasy” carries out the development of the EIA project, makes a comprehensive assessment of all environmental, economic, social parameters of the natural environment on the territory of the economic facility and approves the project expertise.
Our specialists monitor the ecology of the area, carry out all the necessary engineering, environmental and geological surveys to study the impact of the facility's activities on the external environment, and also calculate the cost of environmental measures.
Environmental payments are a payment established by the laws of Turkmenistan that serves as compensation for damage for the negative impact on the environment as a result of economic and production activities of companies of all forms of ownership. These environmental payments are obligatory for all enterprises, institutions, organizations (legal entities and individuals) that harm the natural environment and are made in an indisputable manner.
Who should pay environmental payments?
Environmental payments should be made by enterprises:
• emitting pollutants into the atmosphere (from mobile and stationary sources);
• producing in the process of work waste disposal into underground and surface water sources;
• placing and storing harmful and hazardous waste.
The maximum amount of payment for environmental pollution is approved by Government decrees and is divided into two types for all ingredients of hazardous waste (substances), taking into account the degree of danger*.
Calculation of environmental payments
Environmental payments are mandatory and are classified as tax payments. Regardless of the type of activity (production, trade, services, etc.), any enterprise that harms the environment automatically becomes a taxpayer.
The calculation of environmental payments is made on the basis of the amount of waste placed and stored, polluting emissions into the atmosphere and water sources, as well as basic standards of environmental tariffs. Territorial bodies of environmental supervision authority establish limits of MPE for each company.
In the event of an actual excess of emissions from the established limits, the fee for volumes exceeding the maximum permissible increases by 5 times. If there is no formalized permit for MPE, then the entire volume of polluting waste or emissions is subject to a 5-fold increase in the fee.
The company “Keyik Mirasy” calculates and justifies environmental payments of all types, optimizes the size of quarterly payments, and also performs their approval in the environmental authorities.
Specialists of the company “Keyik Mirasy” provide subscription services, that is, comprehensive environmental support for the activities of enterprises, including small businesses and the preparation of all types of environmental documentation. Periodic changes in environmental legislation, the constant introduction of new reporting forms and changes in the deadlines for their submission, new requirements for substantiated materials, rules and terms for obtaining or renewing permits and approvals in the field of environmental protection require a competent and clear approach to maintaining environmental documentation and special relevant knowledge.
The best solution to this important problem is the transition of the economic facility to environmental outsourcing.
Outsourcing in ecology is a full support of the activities of an enterprise on environmental issues by a specialized environmental company, the performance of the functions of an enterprise ecologist by professionals remotely. This means that there is no need for constant maintenance of a staff unit at the enterprise, because the specialists of the company “Keyik Mirasy” will carry out all the necessary actions and measures, in a timely manner and in accordance with the current legislation on environmental protection, taking into account the type of activity of the enterprise and constantly changing legislative framework. In particular, our specialists produce:
• calculation of obligatory environmental payments - quarterly;
• advising management on environmental protection;
• monitoring the territory of the enterprise on the issue of compliance with the current environmental protection standards;
• obtaining approvals, permits and their extension for all types of environmental projects: MPE, PWGSLD, SPE, SPZ and others;
• keeping logs of 2-tp statistical reporting;
• registration of a permit for discharges;
• environmental audit;
• implementation of chemical analysis protocols;
• studies of acoustic exposure;
• systematization of environmental documentation at the facility;
• technical support and approval of documentation in the organs of consumer and environmental supervision.

In order to obtain permits, licenses, as well as when drawing up statistical reports of the 2-tp form, each economic object must carry out studies of the state of the environment that is contaminated during the operation of the enterprise, or is itself a source of pollution. Also, laboratory studies are necessary for environmental control of production, development and approval (or extension) of standards and limits for waste and emissions, and in many other cases, which are provided for by the environmental legislation of Turkmenistan.
Only accredited laboratories and specialists are allowed to conduct chemical analyzes. In particular, in order to establish the hazard class of waste for the external environment, specialized documentation is developed, and protocols of chemical analysis are drawn up.
Calculation and experimental methods are used to enroll waste to a certain hazard class. When installing the 5th hazard class, it is necessary to confirm the calculations by the experimental method. Otherwise, the waste is automatically assigned to the 4th class. All experimental data are entered into the protocols of chemical analysis.
The size of the enterprise's environmental payments, the values of the approved MPE limits, and the definition of the waste class of the activity depend on the accuracy of the research assessment and their competent interpretation. Fines are imposed for the absence or violation of environmental regulations.
The company "Keyik Mirasy" has an accredited laboratory equipped with modern equipment for all types of chemical analyzes and a staff of highly qualified chemists and ecologists.
In addition to the protocols of chemical analyzes to establish the class of waste, our specialists also perform the following laboratory tests:
• soil analysis - chemical, radiological, microbiological, parasitological;
• analysis of air: of working area (by 88 indicators), gaseous emissions into the atmosphere – by 109 indicators;
• analysis of water - surface, underground and waste waters;
• study of waste - sludge, waste, galvanic liquids, etc. is carried out according to 40 indicators, as well as for toxicity.

• Grounds for calculating the hazard class
• Basic provisions for calculating the hazard group
• Acoustic calculations
• Subscription customer service
• Draft MPE (standards for maximum permissible emissions)
All wastes are divided into classes according to the level of harmful effects on the environment. If we take a sample from complex legislative definitions, then we can briefly say this: all production wastes are divided into 4 hazard classes (class 5 is conditional for non-hazardous waste). The assignment of waste to the hazard class is in the table below:
The degree of danger
Waste class
Extremely hazardous waste
Class 1
High hazard waste
Class 2
Moderately hazardous waste
Class 3
Low hazard waste
Class 4
Waste practically non-hazardous
Class 5 (conditional)
What methods are used to determine the hazard class of toxic substances
For this purpose, two legally defined methods are applied.
• Calculation method. It is used in cases where the waste is clearly defined and its component composition is known. Then it is enough to find the relevant data in the Turkmen classification catalog and to determine the hazard class of waste automatically.
• Experimental method. It is used in situations regarding waste with an undefined composition. It can be performed only in specialized laboratories that have the appropriate state accreditation.
Most often, the experimental method is used:
• in the definition of waste of the 5th hazard class, if there are no other options for confirmation;
• in the primary definition of the waste class;
• for emissions and wastes, the quantitative and qualitative composition of which cannot be determined in any other way;
• if the waste producer or the controlling organization is interested in a more accurate determination of their class, as they are not sure about the accuracy of the calculation method.
Algorithm for determining the calculation of the class of waste
According to legally approved instructions, the hazard class of toxic substances is determined in the implementation of several mandatory steps:
1) expert analysis of documents provided by the waste producer;
2) laboratory tests to accurately determine a number of mandatory data:
• composition of waste by components;
• in count;
• as well as, special studies on information sources, by which it is possible to determine the composition of waste for goods and products that have lost their commercial properties or are discontinued;
3) calculation of the hazard class of waste in accordance with the legal framework, in particular, according to the points determined by the "Criteria for classifying hazardous waste as a hazard class for the environment";
4) if necessary - the involvement of accredited laboratories to carry out experimental methods for determining the hazard class;
5) drawing up a report and transferring it to the customer.
The specialists of the company “Keyik Mirasy” will, in the shortest possible time and at an adequate cost, carry out calculations of the class of waste of your production and draw up all the necessary documentation.
The study of acoustic impact is necessary when the facility carries out production or other activities that have an adverse effect on the environment due to the occurrence of noise. Acoustic calculations must be carried out at enterprises with working apparatus, equipment, machinery, forced ventilation, vehicles, etc. The noise level is calculated in order to normalize the permissible negative impact and control its impact on the environment and public health.
Noise level measurements and acoustic calculations are carried out in rooms that have problematic acoustics, or where there are special requirements for the level and quality of sound. A competently performed noise calculation is a guarantee of good acoustics and comfort for a person in any room.
Calculation of acoustic impacts consists of the following points:
study of permissible levels of sound pressure and determination of design points;
calculation of the possibility of reducing the sound pressure level to acceptable values;
identification of available noise sources and determination of their acoustic characteristics;
development of measures and recommendations for acoustic protection and noise reduction;
The acoustic calculation serves as the basis for the development of measures to reduce the noise load, in particular:
• installation of special sound-absorbing or sound-insulating structures;
• application of seals in openings;
• use of special non-stationary sound-absorbing screens;
• planning and development of residential areas according to SNiP II-12-77;
• use of high-quality mufflers in air conditioning and ventilation systems, etc.
The company “Keyik Mirasy” makes instrumental measurements of the sound pressure level of any complexity, calculations of acoustics for projects of SPZ, PM OOS, EIA, other calculations for consumer supervision or environmental supervision.
You can find out more about the expertise of noise by our company and the development of other projects in the corresponding section of the site:
• Regulatory documentation and grounds for calculating noise.
• Basic provisions for making noise calculations.
• PWGSLD - Project on waste generation standards and their limited disposal.
• SPE project (permissible discharge standards) of harmful microorganisms and substances into water bodies for water users.
• Project of justification of the size of the sanitary protection zone (SPZ).
Almost every enterprise or organization conducting economic activities produces certain types of waste, which for the most part pose a different degree of danger to the environment and to humans. In order to eliminate or minimize these hazards for each enterprise, it is mandatory to develop waste passports and their approval in authorized bodies.
For which industries it is necessary to have a waste passport
Practically every type of waste requires the development of a passport. For example, first of all, it is worth highlighting the following types.
• Industrial waste - for chemical, oil and gas, mining, pharmaceutical, food and other industrial industries, as well as for a number of agricultural industries.
• Waste from consumption: this includes a number of toxic and hazardous used waste, in particular, fluorescent lamps, plastic and plastic packaging, rubber, garbage after cleaning areas.
• Construction waste and demolition - constitute a noticeable level of danger to humans and heavily pollute the surrounding space, therefore they are allocated in a separate section and not only the development and approval of a construction waste passport is required, but also technical regulations for their handling and disposal are drawn up.
What sanctions are provided for violating the requirements of the law on issuing a hazardous waste passport
At the moment, the legislation of Turkmenistan provides for a number of rather tough financial penalties, and in some cases - even stopping the work of the enterprise. More specifically:
• fine for legal entities -;
• fine for officials -;
• or suspension of the company's activities for up to 90 days.
Who draws up the passport for hazardous waste
Development of hazardous waste passports can only be carried out by certified specialists, in particular, our company "Keyik Mirasy" has all the necessary documents to perform this type of work in Ashgabat and across Turkmenistan. And the cost of the waste passport offered by us is one of the lowest among similar offers. What you can see by examining the price list for our services.
How the waste hazard class is determined
Waste criteria and hazard level are stipulated in the legislation. All types are divided into 4 hazard classes and 5th - non-hazardous waste. A passport is not required for class 5 waste.
The process of defining a class itself can be done in two ways:
1) by calculation method - in cases when the component composition of waste is known (and documented) in terms of their quality and quantity. In this case, the theoretical hazard class is calculated and a passport is issued on the basis of this calculation;
2) the experimental method is used in cases where the composition of the waste is not determined. In such cases, in order to develop a waste passport, we, as performers, in laboratories accredited for these purposes, order a laboratory study to determine the exact composition of specific waste. Based on the results, an expert report is drawn up, and on its basis a waste hazard passport is developed.
The finished document is approved by the Ministry of Environmental Protection - this service is included in the cost of the hazardous waste passport.
How long is a valid waste passport
For wastes included in the list, the validity period is not legally established and the passport is valid indefinitely or at the time of registration of this waste in the Federal Classification Catalog.
We provide a full range of services for registration and re-registration, which may be needed only in such cases:
• if there is a need for additional processing of waste or mixing it with other waste;
• when new information becomes available regarding this type of waste.
In these cases, the old waste passport is canceled, and instead a new document is drawn up on a general basis.
In accordance with the Law of Turkmenistan "On Production and Consumption Waste", each enterprise or organization acting in the status of a legal entity or private entrepreneur, operating as a natural resource user, is obliged to develop PWGSLD project - that is, a project on waste generation standards and their limited disposal ... And also to carry out the official registration of permission for their storage or temporary placement. The requirement to comply with the PWGSLD is of great importance for detecting the amount and composition of hazardous waste, as well as determining all possible ways of their neutralization, processing and further use. Each year, it is mandatory to draw up a technical report based on the PWGSLD to extend the limits on waste disposal or obtain a new permit.
Without fail, the development of PWGSLD applies to:
• an operating enterprise whose activities are related to the generation, processing or storage of various wastes;
• an enterprise under construction that will produce hazardous waste or emissions;
• or enterprises of this type that are in the process of reconstruction;

The development of the PWGSLD project is carried out to solve the following tasks:
• calculation of standards for the generation of waste of all types for the year;
• determination of the actual volume of waste;
• calculating the amount of waste that needs to be neutralized or can be used;
• substantiation of the amount of waste intended for storage in certain areas and for a specified period.

• Justification of the maximum amount of waste accumulation and information on the conditions of their storage (or burial);
• Observation of changes in the environment (monitoring) within the limits of the likely impact of waste;
• Recommendations for reducing the amount of waste, development of emergency measures.
PWGSLD and waste generation standards
The development of the PWGSLD is carried out in several stages:
• Inventory of sources and places of storage and disposal of waste;
• Collecting and compiling a list of materials for the development of PWGSLD;
• Study of the characteristics of waste, their qualitative composition and quantity;
• Carrying out QCA of hazardous waste in a laboratory with special accreditation;
• Identification of the hazard class of this waste;
• Determination of the number of annual standards for waste generation and justification of calculations and class;
• Study of the impact of waste on the environment;

According to the law "Environmental Protection", all enterprises and legal entities with stationary sources of discharges undertake to develop a volume of the SPE project - standards for permissible effluents, as well as to regularly conduct an inventory of discharges. At the same time, SPE is established for all discharges in general and for each pollutant or hazardous substance separately. After approval of the project in the technical supervision, the enterprise is issued a "Permit for the discharge of hazardous and noxious substances into water bodies".
The development of a SPE project is mandatory for all enterprises with hazardous discharges, regardless of their form of ownership. The developed and approved project must be submitted to the state bodies for the protection and use of water resources. In case of violations of water legislation and the use of water bodies for discharging harmful substances without a developed SPE project, large fines and sanctions are provided, up to and including stopping the operation of the enterprise.
Standards of permissible effluents
According to the legislation, a separate MPD - maximum permissible discharge has been developed for each hazardous substance. These are environmental standards for maximum permissible discharges approved by the State Standard, establishing the maximum permissible concentration of hazardous and polluting substances in places of water use. When issuing a permit for discharges, all wastewaters into one water use object and the assimilating capabilities of this source are taken into account. Water quality is checked at special control points. In the permits for the MPD, the total mass of discharges is distributed among all water users of a given water body, taking into account the regional development project.
Violation of the water protection regime in the catchments of water bodies, which entails the pollution of these objects or other harmful phenomena, provides for the imposition of an administrative fine. Violation of the requirements for the protection of water bodies, which entails their pollution, clogging and (or) depletion, provides for the imposition of an administrative fine.
Development of a SPE project
SPE project must be developed without fail and this work can only be performed by specialized developers who calculate SPE in accordance with the norms and requirements of State Standards. The SPE project also includes: diversion of return water, all types of industrial and economic activities that adversely affect surface and ground water sources. All these measures allow the state to control and regulate the protection of natural resources and the environment, to ensure the rule of law for the use of natural resources.

Development of SPE projects
The SPE project can only be developed by specialized companies that have a license for this type of work.
The company “Keyik Mirasy” is a licensed SPE developer, our specialists have extensive experience in project implementation and support in registration and regulatory authorities.
The legislation of Turkmenistan requires enterprises - legal entities that emit harmful or polluting substances - to conduct an inventory of emissions, develop documentation for the MPE project, approve standards and agree on them in the nature supervision authorities. These measures are carried out in order to reduce the concentration of hazardous and harmful substances in the residential area, protected natural areas, as well as in the sanitary protection zones to the level of acceptable sanitary standards.
The MPE project is an effective measure to protect the atmosphere from uncontrolled pollution and must be established for each stationary or non-stationary source of harmful emissions. The development of MPE is carried out on the basis of the law "On the protection of atmospheric air." In order to develop MPE project, there is a certain procedure:
• primary inventory of all available sources of hazardous emissions;
• signing an agreement for the development of the MPE project specifying the deadlines, cost of work, as well as the conditions for agreeing on the volume of standards for maximum permissible emissions and obtaining a permit for emissions in the relevant services;
• calculations of the amount of emissions, determination of their dispersion and concentrations in the surface layer, drawing up a volume of the project, which indicates the characteristics of sources of harmful emissions, the range of hazardous substances and volumes of emissions. Also, recommendations are made to reduce emissions and measures to reduce their impact on people and nature;
• Conducting approval procedures in Rospotrebnadzor and Rosprirodnadzor, as a result of which a permit is issued for the implementation of harmful emissions into the atmosphere.
If the enterprise does not have an approved draft MPE or violates its instructions to the enterprise, penalties are applied depending on the degree of violations.
Development of MPE - emission permit
The company “Keyik Mirasy”, as a developer of MPE, takes all the necessary steps to draw up a package of documentation for setting MPE standards, as a result of which the Customer receives an emission permit. The set of documents in accordance with the "Recommendations for the design and content of the draft standards for maximum permissible emissions into the atmosphere" includes the following sections:
• Introduction - with an indication of general information about the location of the resource user, the type of activity, characteristics of elections, their number;
• General information - indicating all the documents on the basis of which the enterprise operates and the project is developed;
• Characterization of the facility as a source of harmful emissions;
• Carrying out calculations of emissions with the definition of MPE standards, justification of calculations, filling in the following tables:
• Development of proposals to reduce emissions and reduce their impact under normal conditions and under adverse weather conditions;
• Development of proposals for monitoring compliance with MPE standards by a given natural resource user.
• The plan of the enterprise with the application of the SPZ must be attached.

Standards of permissible emissions
The result of the development of the project and its approval in the relevant authorities for the Customer is the permit for the emission of hazardous substances, the calculated standards of permissible emissions, the calculation of mandatory environmental payments. The permit is valid for 5 years.
The production activities of many industrial enterprises, power plants, including nuclear power plants, railways and roads, airports, boiler houses, oil depots, treatment facilities, gas stations, cattle burial grounds, cemeteries, power lines, car washes, etc., have an adverse effect on the environment, which means on the health of people living nearby. Therefore, the legislation determines the creation of a sanitary protection zone (SPZ) around such an enterprise in order to minimize the harmful effect. Within the SPZ, the construction of any public and residential buildings is prohibited, and it is also not allowed to enter the water area of water bodies, water intake and water supply wells. The project for the creation of a sanitary protection zone is a mandatory document, and is submitted together with a project for the construction, reconstruction, re-equipment of an industrial enterprise.
The sanitary protection zone of the enterprise is a prerequisite for the operation of an object that poses a danger to the environment and human health due to hazardous factors at work - dust, noise, hazardous waste and emissions - gaseous, liquid, hot steam, etc. The zone is created to protect the population in accordance with sanitary hygienic requirements depending on the sanitary classification of the given enterprise. The exact sizing of the SPZ depends on:
• type of activity of the enterprise;
• sanitary class of the object;
• the results of calculating the possible harmful effect on the environment;
• the level of adverse physical and other influences.

SPZ for companies of 1 and 2 hazard classes
The development of a sanitary protection zone (SPZ) project for enterprises of 1 and 2 hazard classes is included in the list of mandatory environmental documentation. The installation of the SPZ is carried out indefinitely and can be changed only in some cases, but it is obligatory with the implementation of a new project of the SPZ when:
• changes in production technologies;
• changes in the intensity of emissions or the location of their sources;
• changes in the intensity of noise or the location of noise sources;
• changing the intensity of electromagnetic fields or transferring their sources;
• other factors that may require an increase or decrease in the SPZ.
Development and approval of an indicative SPZ
SPZ design is carried out in several stages:
• Justification of the boundaries of the future sanitary protection zone, taking into account all factors - the so-called approximate (estimated) SPZ;
• Assessment of preliminary and development of all necessary measures for environmental protection, planning organization and improvement of the territory of the SPZ;
• Registration of the SPZ project in accordance with the requirements of the supervisory authorities, approval with the execution of a sanitary and epidemiological conclusion for the SPZ project.
The project of the sanitary protection zone of a company
The company Keyik Mirasy”, as the SPZ developer, is licensed to carry out all the necessary environmental and other studies for the development of the SPZ design, calculation and delineation of the zone boundaries. The design of the sanitary protection zone is carried out depending on the location of the object, the type of its activity and the complexity of the necessary work in a period of 3 to 6 months.
You can find out more about the development of SPZ by our company in the corresponding section of the site:
• Development of the SPZ. Regulatory documentation for the SPZ developer.
• The main directions of the SPZ project and its organization.
• List of required documents for the organization and development of the SPZ.
• Sections and content of the sanitary protection zone project.
• Coordination and approval of the indicative SPZ.
The company “Keyik Mirasy” is one of the largest developers of environmental documentation in Turkmenistan.
In order to protect the environment from the ingress of toxic wastes from production, construction and other economic spheres, the chief sanitary doctor of Turkmenistan approved the "Sanitary rules for determining the hazard class of toxic production and consumption wastes."
This act defines the criteria for establishing the hazard class of waste, methods for determining the degree of their danger to humans and the environment, as well as the rules for the accumulation and collection of toxic waste.
On the basis of these Sanitary Rules, state, municipal and local authorities introduce requirements for technical regulations for handling various types of waste. According to government regulations, for each type of toxic waste for each specific enterprise or business unit, a separate technical regulation for waste is developed, which is an independent section of the enterprise's documentation.
Where to order technical regulations for waste
The development of technical regulations for waste management by specialists of the company “Keyik Mirasy” for all regions of Turkmenistan is carried out according to the following algorithm.
1. Collection of information, study and analysis of initial data and documentation provided by the customer.
2. With a known component composition of waste, the class is determined by the calculation method, on the basis of which a report is drawn up and technical regulations for their handling are developed.
3. In the case of wastes of unknown composition, laboratory tests of the wastes themselves (depending on their type) for harmful components, as well as soil and air, are ordered. Produced by an accredited laboratory by order of the contractor.
4. Based on the research results, an expert opinion is drawn up.
5. On the basis of the completed stages, our specialists develop technical regulations for waste management. All work takes from 5 to 14 days, depending on the number and volume of research.
The finished technical regulation is submitted for examination and approval to the authorized bodies. The approval period is set at 30 days, but often it takes much more time when solving the issue independently. Optimal - to order from us the execution of documentation, as they say, "turnkey".
