UrBC, Yekaterinburg, May 10, 2018. The workers of EVRAZ Holding’s Nizhniy Tagil Integrated Metallurgical Works (MMK) coordinated a series of cleanup days in Nizhniy Tagil streets as well as on the plant’s premises. Some five hundred people took part in the cleanups in the last two weeks, EVRAZ Holding Ural’s PR Department reports.

‘EVRAZ NTMK’s young employees got ready for Victory Day celebrations by cleaning up the premises of the plant’s Military Glory Museum: they removed all the old foliage and shrubbery as well as dirt, got the flower beds ready for planting, and cleaned and painted the memorials. The strip from Central Gate to Komsomolskaya Entrance got cleaned by the plant’s veterans, as is our custom,’ the department says.

The plant employees will also clean up all the neighboring streets, Metallurgists Memorial Square at the foot of Mount Lisya, and Kuibyshev Museum (a former plant). As for NTMK premises, they will work on roads, curbsides, and pavements, trim and whitewash the trees, and paint the curbs and the benches.

It is reported all the workers have been provided with individual protective gear (breathing masks, gloves, and fluorescent vests).
