Komsomolsk-on-Amur

(Russian: Komsomolsk-on-Amur, tr. Komsomolsk-on-Amur, IPA: [kəmsɐˈmolʲsk nɐɐˈmurʲə]) is a city in Khabarovsk Krai, Russia, located on the western bank of the Amur River in Russia. Far East . It is located on the Baikal-Amur Mainline, 356 km northeast of Khabarovsk. As of 2010, its population was 263,906 (2010 census); [3] 281,035 (2002 census); [11] 315,325 (1989 Census). [12]

History[edit]

Street in Komsomolsk-on-Amur

The future city of Komsomolsk-on-Amur was conquered by the Mongols in the 13th century, becoming part of the Mongol Empire under the Mongol Yuan dynasty, and later the Manchus, held until 1858 by the Treaty of Aigun, ceded the territory to the Russian Empire.

The village of Perm (Permskaya) was created on a later site of Komsomolsk in 1860 by working peasants from what is now Perm Krai.

The government of the RSFSR announced in 1931 plans to build a shipyard on the Amur on the present site of Komsomolsk, with construction beginning in 1932 [ edit

] The city was mainly built using the labor of volunteers from the communist youth organization Komsomol, thus receiving the name Komsomolsk.
However, the construction of the city was helped by convict laborers from the camps located in the area. [13] The suffix on Amur
was added to distinguish it from other cities with the same name.
It received city status in 1933[ edit
]

By the late 1940s, shipyards and other heavy industries were built. The city has developed into a regional center for industries such as aircraft manufacturing, metallurgy, mechanical engineering, oil refining and shipbuilding. Currently, Komsomolsk-on-Amur is the main production center for Sukhoi military aircraft and the Sukhoi Superjet airliner. [14] The MiG-15bis [15] and Lizunov Li-2 [16] were both manufactured in Komsomolsk-on-Amur.

Administrative and municipal status[edit]

As part of the administrative divisions, Komsomolsk-on-Amur serves as the administrative center of the Komsomolsky District, [6] although it is not part of it. [1] As an administrative division, formed separately as a city of regional significance Komsomolsk-on-Amur

- an administrative unit with a status equal to that of districts.
[1] As a municipal division, the city of regional significance of Komsomolsk-on-Amur is included in the Komsomolsk-on-Amur urban district
. [7] Administratively, the city is divided into 2 districts (formerly a district), coinciding with the historical parts: Leninsky (Dzemgi) and Central.

In Soviet times, the administrative-territorial division of the city was different from the current one. In accordance with the Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the RSFSR dated October 19, 1943, Leninsky, Stalinsky and Central districts were formed. The Stalinsky district included the territory of the Amurstal railway and a residential area.

The Presidium of the Supreme Council of the RSFSR “On the abolition of the city of Komsomolsk-on-Amur, Khabarovsk Territory” was abolished in the regional division on August 7, 1957, but by decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Council of March 31, 1972. The council again divided the city into two districts - Central and Leninsky.

Layout[edit]

“House with a Spire” is an unofficial symbol of Komsomolsk-on-Amur.

Komsomolsk-on-Amur consists of two historical parts: where the main enterprise is located - the Shipbuilding Plant, and Dzemga - the area formed during the construction of the aircraft plant (the future KnAAPO). In fact, each part represents a separate city, which is a single center of the city.

The districts of the city differ greatly in architectural appearance: in the center Stalinist buildings of the 40-50s predominated (with the exception of the residential area near the railway station), Dzemgi is built up mainly with typical apartment buildings. There is no “dormitory” district of Dzemga, since most of its residents work at the enterprises located here.

Coat of arms

The coat of arms of Komsomolsk-on-Amur was approved by the decision of the executive committee of the city Council of Workers' Deputies on June 6, 1967 No. 329. The author of the coat of arms is B.L. Starius, a member of the Union of Artists of the RSFSR. The coat of arms was entered into the Heraldic Register of the Russian Federation on June 3, 2002 under No. 969. The coat of arms is made on a shield of the French heraldic form. In the center of the shield is the figure of a young man. He's wearing builder's work clothes. The young man's face is open to all winds. With a powerful sweep of his strong arms, the young builder - the human creator - is pushing apart the centuries-old taiga. At the young man’s feet are the blue and white waves of the taiga Amur River. The golden (yellow) sun rises above the blue surface, rushing its rays upward. The coat of arms is a monument to the first builders of the city, who arrived on the wild bank of the Amur on May 10, 1932 as part of shock labor landings in the taiga expanses of the country and symbolizes the eternally young spirit of the city.

Climate[edit]

Komsomolsk-on-Amur has a humid continental climate (Köppen Dfb

). Temperatures in the city area typically vary by more than 56 °C (100.8 °F) throughout the year, with a daily average of -24.7 °C (-12.5 °F) in January, up from +20.3 °C (68.5 °F) in July.

Historical sketch

The city arose on the site of the village of Perm, founded in 1860 by peasant migrants from the Perm province, and the Nanai camp of Dzyomgi. In February 1932, a decision was made to build heavy industrial enterprises here; in December 1932, the village of Perm was transformed into the city of Komsomolsk-on-Amur. This name was supposed to indicate the construction of the city by Komsomol members, although in reality the main workforce (about 70% of the builders) were prisoners.

In 1932-39 Amur shipbuilding, aviation and timber plants were built.

Construction was completed during the Great Patriotic War of 1941-45.

In the post-war period, light and food industry enterprises were built.

Komsomolsk-on-Amur. A look from the inside

The history of the city began on May 10, 1932, when the steamships “Comintern” and “Columbus” landed about a thousand builders of the future city on the Amur coast, near the village of Perm. Today, this event is remembered by a memorial stone and a monument to the first builders. The city was officially formed by the Decree of the Presidium of the All-Russian Central Executive Committee of December 10, 1932.

Memorial stone on the embankment in Komsomolsk-on-Amur

The new city on the banks of the Amur was conceived as the center of the defense industry in the Far East. From the very beginning of the construction of the city, aviation, shipbuilding and metallurgical enterprises were founded.

The construction itself was carried out under difficult conditions. Despite the fact that Komsomolsk-on-Amur is located south of Moscow (approximately at the latitude of Belgorod and Voronezh), in terms of its climatic characteristics it is equal to the regions of the Far North. Snow cover in the Komsomolsk area begins at the end of October - beginning of November, and disappears at the end of April. The average annual air temperature is 1.5°C.

Extreme climatic factors: in summer - sweltering heat combined with high humidity and midges, in winter - frosts below -40 ° C and strong winds. Poor living conditions and logistics, monotonous and often insufficient food led to a shortage of labor at construction sites. On April 1, 1934, out of 2,500 Komsomol members who arrived for construction, there were 460 people available, the rest left the construction site in various ways. This shortage was soon partially filled by military builders, and to a greater extent by prisoners.

In the vicinity of the city, many “zones” of Amurlag were built, a significant part of their inhabitants remained in the Far Eastern land forever.

Despite all the difficulties, the enterprises built in the shortest possible time actively produced defense products during the war years, making their contribution to the victory. The city's industry supplied: ferrous metal, warships and aircraft.

In the post-war period, Komsomolsk-on-Amur actively developed. Housing was built at an accelerated pace, and industrial production increased. The city's status as a major manufacturer of military high-tech products has increased even more. By the end of the 80s, at the Komsomolsk-on-Amur Aviation Production Association named after. Yu. A. Gagarin (KnAAPO) mastered the mass production of 4th generation Su-27 fighters. Shipyard No. 199 named after Leninsky Komsomol (ZLK) built diesel submarines pr. 877 and nuclear submarines pr. 971.

In 1986, in addition to the existing facilities, the metallurgical plant launched: Electric steel melting shop (ESPTs-2) and Profile rolling shop (Prokat-3). To meet the needs for thermal and electrical energy, CHPP-3 and numerous power lines were built.

Other civil sector enterprises also increased production. In agriculture, there was high growth in livestock production. In the mid-80s, a number of livestock complexes (now completely destroyed) were built, which made it possible to mainly satisfy local needs for meat. Suburban state farms grew vegetables adapted to local conditions in significant quantities. Now all food products are imported from other regions and China.

The population of Komsomolsk-on-Amur reached its peak in 1991, and amounted to -318,000 people. In reality, the number of residents was much larger, taking into account the numerous military units and correctional centers located in the surrounding area - at least 350,000 people.

If we do not take into account military personnel and prisoners, the main factors retaining the working-age population in the region were high salaries compared to the central regions, northern benefits and the ability to quickly obtain comfortable housing.

The city has been inextricably linked with the military since its founding. It remained closed for a long time. This is due to the large number of defense enterprises, as well as the geographical location of the city, which, in the event of military threats, remains the only city located on the BAM, remote from the maritime theaters of military operations (240 km) and the state border (300 km).

Currently, most military units have been disbanded, equipment has been removed or “disposed of,” and military camps that were comfortable in the past have been abandoned and looted.

With the collapse of the USSR and the beginning of “economic reforms,” a collapse in production occurred at the city’s industrial enterprises. The country's government began to consider the Far Eastern region a burden for the country's economy. There is a well-known statement by Prime Minister E. Gaidar, who visited the city on October 1, 1993: “In these parts, it is enough to leave 30 thousand people for logging.”

It would seem that the “well-fed” 2000s and the sufficient financial resources at the disposal of the country’s leadership should have changed their attitude towards the Far East. However, this did not happen: money was invested in anything but in the development of the territory.

Hopes for foreign investment in industry and processing industries from China, Korea and Japan turned out to be unfounded. It is naive to believe (given the unfavorable natural and climatic factors, high level of corruption, administrative arbitrariness and expensive energy resources) that foreign investors will invest in the development of the Far Eastern territories. It is much easier for them to receive raw materials and energy resources from us, and at prices much lower than in Russia itself.

As an example of an extremely short-sighted approach, one can cite the activities of Chinese timber harvesting companies in the Khabarovsk Territory.

Far Eastern taiga

What is the point of the Chinese paying our forestry enterprises a good price for timber when they themselves are logging in the Far Eastern taiga? Not caring about reforestation and leaving behind a desert.

What remains after the Chinese “loggers”

The tariff policy of the authorities in the field of electricity and automobile fuel causes general bewilderment among residents of the region. It cannot be called anything other than suffocating. The cost of a kilowatt/hour in Komsomolsk is 3.47 rubles. In the near future, the introduction of the so-called “social norm” is expected, i.e. energy will cost the population even more. This is despite the fact that the region has an excess of generating capacity, and the “excess” energy is supplied to China at prices many times lower than for its own consumers!

Residents of the region have nothing but environmental problems and deterioration of the hydrological regime in the Amur from the built Zeya and Bureyskaya hydroelectric power stations.

During the next press conference, no clear answer was received to V. Putin’s question about why this was happening.

In response, there was verbiage about the globalization of the economy, freedom of pricing, tariff policy, etc.

Fuel prices at gas stations in Komsomolsk-on-Amur

All this also applies to gasoline prices, which inevitably affects the final prices of food products in retail chains.

A real impetus for development in the Far Eastern territories could be given by the introduction of fair prices for electricity and fuel, tax breaks in the real sector of the economy, and the construction of roads and housing.

But, apparently, pumping money into the Caucasian regions, the Olympics, and US securities is closer and more familiar to our leadership.

Environmental problems are especially acute in Komsomolsk-on-Amur compared to other Far Eastern cities. Groundwater and small reservoirs are polluted, the main source of water intake - the Amur - is subject to strong anthropogenic influence. Due to the construction of hydroelectric power stations and the discharge of wastewater in the upper part of the Amur (in particular, the city of Khabarovsk, as well as populated areas of China), there is high bacterial contamination, which does not allow its use for recreational purposes and forces drinking water to be chlorinated with increased doses, which leads to an exacerbation of the problem of the formation of carcinogenic organochlorine compounds.

Komsomolsk-on-Amur is a “risk area” for the incidence of leukemia, malignant neoplasms of the skin and respiratory organs. The incidence of cancer has increased - up to 403.9 per 100 thousand population. The morbidity structure is dominated by skin cancer - 16.1%, cancer of the trachea, bronchi and lung - 13.8%, breast cancer - 10.6%, female genital cancer - 8.2%, stomach cancer - 7.9%.

The greatest contamination of groundwater is observed in comparison with the cities of the Khabarovsk Territory - chlorides (up to 520 mg/dm3 - 1.5 MAC), lead (0.039 mg/dm3 - 1.3 MAC), cadmium (0.0063 mg/dm3 - 6. 3 MPC), beryllium (0.0018 mg/dm3 - 9 MPC), aluminum (2.58 mg/dm3 - 5.16 MPC), titanium (1.556 mg/dm3 - 15.56 MPC).

After the liquidation of the forest protection service, the taiga and peat bogs around the city burn in the spring and summer. Smoke and fumes from forest fires lead to high concentrations of carbon monoxide, several times higher than the maximum permissible concentration. Visibility on roads may be less than 100 m.

In the summer of 2012, emissions of “unknown gases” occurred at the Komsomolsk Refinery. The situation was on the scale of a real environmental disaster. However, representatives of Rosneft, despite the strong smell of gas and the deteriorating health of many city residents for a long time, continued to deny everything.

Healthcare in the city is of a polyclinic and outpatient nature. To receive better medical care, residents are forced to turn to medical organizations in Khabarovsk, Moscow, and Novosibirsk.

Harsh climatic conditions, environmental problems, lack of amenities, lack of affordable housing, and, most importantly, low wages and higher tariffs and prices compared to the central regions, lead to a massive outflow of the population from the city. The most active part of the population, the youth, is the first to leave.

It turns out to be a vicious circle. The low level of pay at industrial enterprises in the city leads to a shortage of personnel and a lack of qualified labor, which is an obstacle to increasing the volume of production of high-tech products.

T-50 produced by KnAAZ at the MAKS-2011 air show

Even at such an enterprise as the Komsomolsk-on-Amur Aviation Plant named after Yu. A. Gagarin (JSC KnAAZ), where Su-35 fighter jets are produced, the PAK FA program is being implemented, Sukhoi Superjet 100 airliners are being assembled, there is an acute shortage workers. With an average salary at the plant of 42,000 rubles. (which is like “the average temperature in the hospital, taking into account the morgue”), the real salary of a riveter is 25,000 rubles. The difference is the money received by “effective managers”.

At the Amur Shipyard, the situation with wages is even worse. This once prosperous enterprise, due to the lack of defense orders and theft of management, has been driven to bankruptcy.

The promises made when visiting the plant shortly before the elections by the current president about government orders and financial injections remained just words.

Moreover, not so long ago it became known that submarines would no longer be built at the NEA. But it was precisely for their production that the enterprise was “sharpened”.

The actions of local and regional authorities raise no less questions. Since 1991, the position of head of the city has been permanently held by the honorary citizen of the city of Komsomolsk-on-Amur, candidate of economic sciences, member of the United Russia party since February 10, 2006, Vladimir Petrovich Mikhalev.

Vladimir Petrovich Mikhalev - Candidate of Economic Sciences

V.P. Mikhalev was awarded state awards: the Order of Merit for the Fatherland, IV degree (2007), the medals “For Labor Valor” (1981) and “For the Construction of the Baikal-Amur Mainline” (1988), the Order of Honor (1998), Order of “Holy Prince Daniel of Moscow” - II degree (2001), medal “200 years of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia” (2002), medal “300 years of the Russian Navy” (2004), awarded the Main All-Russian public award “Russian National Olympus” in personal nomination “Mayor of the Year 2002-2003”, with the presentation of a diploma and public order “For Honor and Valor” (2003), medal of the Central Council of ROSTO “First three times Hero of the Soviet Union A.I. Pokryshkin" (2004).

During the leadership of the city by this honored and favored man, the number of residents in the city, according to official data, decreased from 318,600 to 257,800 residents. In reality, the outflow of population is much greater; residents are moving to Komsomolsk-on-Amur from nearby Amursk and Solnechny, where living conditions, the situation with employment and wages are even worse. The villages along the BAM are practically deserted; the lack of work, basic amenities and any prospects forces people to leave their homes and move to Komsomolsk.

Many industrial enterprises have ceased to exist, and most of the remaining ones are barely surviving. In order to save money, a number of educational and health care institutions were liquidated. Housing construction has practically stopped; many roads, even in the city center, are in poor condition.

But the construction of numerous shopping centers and, oddly enough in permafrost conditions, fountains are actively underway.

Barracks built in the 30s on Pionerskaya Street (almost in the city center)

At the same time, part of the population continues to live in barracks built in the mid-30s by the city’s pioneer builders. All the “conveniences” in this “housing” are located on the street.

A unique feature of the mayor of Komsomolsk is his amazing ability, if necessary, to negotiate and find a common language with anyone.

For example, V.P. Mikhalev got along well with the well-known crime boss Evgeny Vasin (Jem).

Since the beginning of the 90s, Komsomolsk-on-Amur began to enjoy the dubious reputation of the “criminal capital” of the Far Eastern region.

The influence of “Dzhem” and the organized criminal group “Obshchak” created by him was very great. Members of the Obshchak engaged in extortion with impunity, bringing under their control or imposing tribute on many enterprises and many entrepreneurs. Those who did not agree to pay were dealt with most cruelly. The level of thefts, robberies and vehicle thefts was extremely high. Representatives of this criminal group on April 23, 1995, in the Leninsky district of Komsomolsk-on-Amur, threw live grenades at a police department.

Despite the numerous crimes committed by members of the Obshchak and appeals from citizens, the authorities limited themselves to half measures, at best bringing ordinary members of the criminal group to justice.

In the early 1990s, Vasin organized a youth camp on the Amur island of Malaykin near Komsomolsk-on-Amur. There, almost legally, teenagers from disadvantaged families underwent combat training and learned the “concepts” of thieves.

Only the arson on February 22, 2001 by members of the organized crime group of the Charodeyka cafe, which led to mass deaths and caused widespread protests among city residents, led to the arrest of Jem. The thieves in law hoped in this way to strike a blow at the owner of the Enchantress, who did not pay tribute to the Obshchak.

During the attack, masked bandits threw Molotov cocktails at the premises (including at the threshold to cut off the path to the exit). The flames quickly spread through the cafe filled with visitors. As a result of the arson, four people burned alive (and they did not die from burns - they were actually cremated alive, the bodies of the victims were charred to the bones), four more died in the hospital, over twenty people received burns, many of them were left disabled. The people who managed to escape from the cafe had their skin peeled off right on the street. All the dead and most of the injured were young people aged 15 to 25 years.

Vasin was arrested on charges of this crime and soon died in a pre-trial detention center in Khabarovsk, according to the official version - from heart failure. However, everything that happened had no effect on the city leadership.

The actions of local authorities in preparing for and eliminating the consequences of the flood, which for some reason they bashfully call flooding, deserve special assessment.

Embankment of Komsomolsk-on-Amur near the river station during a flood

A few weeks before the “big water,” when the Amur region was drowning and the flood wave was moving down the Amur, no action was taken. Except, of course, for optimistic statements in the local media.

During this time, it was quite possible to prepare, build up protective dams and avoid flooding of large areas. But time was lost; work began when flooding became inevitable.

Only thanks to the selfless actions of conscript soldiers, Emergency Situations Ministry employees and volunteers from among local residents, flooding of the central part of the city was avoided.

During the “peak of the flood,” the activities of the head of the city fell out of sight of the public and the media. In the reports and directly in the flood zones, only his deputies could be seen. At one time, information about the removal of V.P. even circulated among residents of Komsomolsk-on-Amur. Mikhalev from office.

Vladimir Petrovich showed up when it became clear that the threat of flooding the city had passed.

International Avenue

The central areas of the city escaped serious flooding, but the private sector was hit hard. In many flooded houses, the water level reached 1.5 meters or more.

Against the backdrop of the approaching winter (the first snow fell in Komsomolsk on October 15), the issues of restoring destroyed housing and paying compensation remain largely unresolved. Apparently, many townspeople will have to resolve these issues in court.

Flooded streets of the village of Parkovy

The gubernatorial elections that took place on September 8, 2013, at the height of the flood, evoke nothing but a bitter smile. With a turnout of 26%, 62.48% of voters voted for the current governor Vyacheslav Shport, i.e. just over 13% of those eligible to vote.

Vyacheslav Ivanovich Shport was born and began his career in Komsomolsk-on-Amur. He held various positions at KnAAPO. On December 19, 1999, he was elected to the State Duma of the Russian Federation. On April 30, 2009, by decree of the President of Russia, he was appointed acting governor of the Khabarovsk Territory, replacing the former elected governor Viktor Ivanovich Ishaev in this position.

Unlike V.I. Ishaev, who did not hesitate to criticize the central government, had his own opinion and demonstrated a certain independence, the current governor has always shown loyalty, often even to the detriment of the interests of the region.

During his governorship, there were no special positive changes in the development of the region and his hometown.

In 2013, the budget deficit of the Khabarovsk Territory amounted to 15%. To cover it, loans were taken from commercial banks under guarantees from the regional government. The economic growth planned for 2013 in the region - 103% - will most likely not be achieved. It is not clear how to repay these loan obligations.

Most likely, we will have to get out of the situation with the help of another increase in tariffs, local taxes and excise taxes, which are already among the highest in the country. And this will once again place an additional burden on residents and businesses, reducing the purchasing power of the population and the investment attractiveness of the territory.

Unresolved socio-economic problems, low standard of living, isolation from the center due to high transport tariffs, inattention of the federal authorities to the needs of the Far Easterners - all this leads to an increase in the degree of social discontent and the growth of separatist sentiments.
