State Expert Appraisal Board provides positive conclusions on the project for reconstructing VTMS building in Makhachkala Port

On September 1, 2017 FAI “Glavgosexpertiza of Russia” approved Positive Findings on the project documentation and the results of engineering survey on the project for reconstructing the VTMS building in the port of Makhachkala No 922-17/GGE-10869/09 of September 1, 2017 made by the State Expert Appraisal Board. On September 8, 2017 the State Expert Appraisal Board approved Positive Findings No 944-17/GGE-10869/10 of September 8, 2017 on the the evaluation of budgeted cost of an infrastructure facility.

Under the project for reconstructing the VTMS building in the port of Makhachkala, the existing structure constructed in 2004 is expected to be dismantled. A new administrative building, which responds to the requirements of sanitary and living conditions for VTMS operators’ accommodation in the seaport of Makhachkala and to the requirements of counter-terrorism protection, is planned to be erected in its place. The building is expected to be equipped with up-to-date electronic aids to navigation designed for increasing the level of navigation safety of vessels in the water area of the seaport of Makhachkala and on the approaches toward it.

Services of the Makhachkala Branch and the Branch’s units will be also deployed in the new VTMS building of Makhachkala Seaport. The services will ensure the work of GMSSB equipment, and the units will be responsible for technical supervision over the water area of the seaport in order to ensure transport security.

Financing of reconstruction operations is made at the FSUE “Rosmorport” own expense.

Subject to provision of required funds and upon completing competitive analyses to choose a contracting agency for carrying out construction and installation works the reconstruction of the building is scheduled for the first quarter of 2018.
