The agreement on the establishment of the border between the Republic of Tatarstan and the Orenburg region was approved
Today, at the twenty-eighth meeting of the State Council of the Republic of Tatarstan of the sixth convocation, Fanil Agliullin submitted to the State Council of the Republic of Tatarstan for approval the Agreement on establishing the location of the border between the subjects of the Russian Federation - the Republic of Tatarstan and the Orenburg region, which was approved by a unanimous decision.
The work to determine the border with the Orenburg region began at the end of 2019 with the collection and analysis of initial cartographic and cadastral materials. Initially, fifty-five disputed sections of the border were identified.
In particular, large unaccounted territories (with a total area of more than 100 hectares) of the Republic of Tatarstan were found at the border, formed as a result of the discrepancy between the boundaries on the maps of on-farm land management of adjacent farms, due to the incorrect display of the boundaries of forestries. Considering that these territories were not used by the Orenburg side and there are no registered cadastral plots on it, as well as taking into account the materials of orthophotomaps, an agreed decision was made to refer the unaccounted plots to the territory of the Republic of Tatarstan.
The rest of the controversial points regarding the establishment of boundaries were related to the fact that cartographic materials of various years of release, according to which maps of on-farm land management and maps-schemes for establishing the boundaries of municipalities of neighboring subjects were created, were not coordinated with each other and displayed the passage of the border in different ways. This has led to overlap of parcels and unaccounted areas in the border areas.
After completing all the necessary work, an Agreement on the Establishment of the Boundary was prepared. After the signing of the document by the leaders of both subjects, the Agreement was sent to the State Council of the Republic of Tatarstan for approval.
For reference:
The border between the Republic of Tatarstan and the Orenburg region is about 200 kilometers long. Bavlinsky and Bugulminsky districts of the republic are located on the border. As a result of the work, the area of the Republic of Tatarstan increased by 139 hectares due to the previously unaccounted for territories (which did not belong to either Tatarstan or the Orenburg region).
The Republic of Tatarstan borders on 8 subjects of the Republic of Tatarstan (Republic of Bashkortostan, Orenburg Region, Samara Region, Ulyanovsk Region, Chuvash Republic, Kirov Region, Republic of Mari El and Udmurt Republic). The total length of the border is 3401 km.
