Metallurgical Industrial Complex of Nizhniy Tagil JSC (part of Evraz Group) has recently looked at its success in terms of environmental protection programs in the first half of 2006. It turned out that the Complex reduces the harmful emissions by another 1,300 tons compared to the first half of 2005. This rate of specific emissions is one of the lowest among Russian metallurgical enterprises; it floats at approximately 18 kilograms per ton of steel (as opposed to 35 kilograms per ton in 1990), reports the spokesperson for the Complex.
