port at the mouth of Mzymta - one of the most important Sochi Olympic facilities. It is being built to deliver construction materials to the site, located a few hundred meters from the port here in Nizhneimeretinskoy lowlands. It has already started the construction of skating rinks, which will be held in 2014, competition in hockey, figure skating, speed skating, short track and curling. All this, as it is called, the coastal cluster in Sochi Olympic Games will be posted six sports arenas, including the stadium, a field which will be opening and closing ceremonies of the Games.

Estimated turnover of the port - 5 million tons of building materials per year. It is clear that without a huge Olympic park in Nizhneimeretinskoy plain just do not create. It was assumed that the first of the eight berths of the port will accept cargo vessels already in early 2010, and by the end of 2010 the first entire port with the appropriate infrastructure will be put into operation.

What and how will now still unknown. Yesterday none of the senior organizers of the Games in Sochi, the situation did not comment. However, it is clear that the Olympics take place, no matter what. How clear and that now it will cost even more.

Construction of the port at the mouth of the river Mzymta - project investment. So far, funding for the construction holding company, Basic Element of Oleg Deripaska. As a federal employer was "Rosmorport. General contractor - JSC "Engineering Corporation Transstroy.

As explained yesterday, Deputy General Director of Transstroy Andrei Streltsov, swell dramatically intensified on Dec. 14 at five o'clock and seven o'clock in the sea has destroyed almost everything that the builders have done over the past eight months. Very much had been destroyed already built structure south-west breakwater, which was supposed to protect the port waters of the waves. In the sea washed away almost the entire industrial base. Out under the water kept on the bank of the pile, which, incidentally, have recently been delivered to the site of cargo ship. Drowned trucks, eight cranes, tractors, excavators. Waves was destroyed and a unique floating complex Irben "with a displacement of 400 tons, which was designed for driving piles into the seabed. The crew of the vessel managed to evacuate.

The crew of the diving boat "Nord", which was under construction in the waters of the port, tried to bring his ship into the open sea. However, the "Nord" immediately turned up the keel. Yesterday afternoon the staff search and rescue team of the Southern Regional Search and Rescue Center Emergency Ministry managed to pull boat ashore, but the three crew members on board was not (the rescuers were hoping that people are placed in sealed compartments of the bot). Missing sailors searched all day yesterday, but to no avail.

According to Deputy Director General of Transstroy Andrei Streltsov, so catastrophic storms were caused partly by the fact that the builders of the approach of bad weather had not been warned in time. But Sochi rescuers say that on the eve of local emergency services sent out a storm warning across the region and knew about it all.

However, the main cause of the accident, according to experts of the Sochi Research Center of Marine Shore, not six-point storm which broke out near the coast of Sochi in the morning on Dec. 14, but the fact that the port at the mouth of Mzymta built with gross violations. In particular, the port began to build without a reservation on the simulation of the impact of the sea on the coast Nizhneimeretinskoy bay, though the shore of the bay and had previously been subject to severe erosion by storms, - informs "Time of news" from Sochi.

Shestibalny storm! They're that out of clay and Kizyakov port built?
 As for Mr Deripaska. It has long been bankrupt, and if not for the Prime, with its idea pumping state. Funds through the "Basic Element, Deripaska's business would have long to be there now, it's the same lie, dump trucks, eight cranes, tractors, excavators."
And the contractor and the customer only happen at hand - instead of sawn loot allocate novoe.A port and all that - well, what have the elements!
It's called kleptomania. Power.
As for the loss of life, there continue to be guided by the principle of a famous Soviet military commander-Baba ESO narozhayut!

Was there a boy? In terms of whether the port. What is washed away something? Maybe just washed away the traces of the fact that there is nothing?
In this regard, recall the criticism Luzhkov, saying the price of roads and facilities in Moscow many times higher than the European, Canadian and other analogues. Well, due to abuse. And they say these calumnies: - Even so, let there be abuses, but it is. Because alternative "to + abuse" only "abuse".
