As reported, last week a part of Crimea, including Geater Yalta and Kerch, was flooded due to heavy downfalls. After that, it was forbidden to bathe on the Yalta and Kerch shores. The ban will remain in force until the water quality indicators return to normal. This issue is controlled by the Crimean department of Rospotrebnadzor (Russian Consumer Protection Authority). It monitors sea water for the presence of Vibrio cholerae. From 28 June, beach administrators will start checking the quality of sea water independently and, depending on the results of the tests, make decisions about opening the beaches for bathing.

In addition, an interdepartmental commission was set up to assess the volume of work on the restoration and readiness of the beaches to welcome guests and residents of Crimea. It included representatives of Rospotrebnadzor, State Inspection Service of the Ministry for Emergency Situations, the Ministry of Resorts of Crimea and administrations of the municipalities.
