OJSC MCC EuroChem continues to prepare for the start-up of the mining enrichment combine in the Volgograd Region in 2012. The company plans to create an industrial community for specialists dealing with preparation for development of the Gremyachinski deposit of potassium salts exercised by the enterprise of EuroChem in Kotelnikov of the Volgograd Region – LLC EuroChem-VolgaKalii.

The community is being erected for workers building the mining enrichment combine.

The Pimeno-Chern farm with about 800 residents is located in the Volgograd Region, 12 kilometers from the enterprise LLC EuroChem-VolgaKalii and 34 kilometers from Kotelnikov.

A part of the buildings and facilities of the village designed for 1,000 places has already been introduced into operation (a canteen, 4 hostels with 352 places, a boiling house, energy supply facilities and treatment facilities for effluents).

All buildings and facilities in the village are erected from lightened fast-assembled constructive modules which are fabricated at the Volzhsky Plant in the Volgograd Region.

In September the second stage of delivery of the community facilities is planed - 6 hostels with 100 places each, 2 sport sites, a parking area for motor transport and an administrative building with a medical unit and facilitated territory – everything required for normal and comfort living in the community.
