In Makhachkala, only 5% of gas stations operate without violations

The Makhachkala administration is concerned about the state of gas filling stations. According to the mayor of the capital, Dzhambulat Salavov, only 5% of the 100 operating gas stations comply with the requirements of the law. The remaining stations are divided into two groups: 55 with correctable violations and 45 with serious violations that pose a danger. The authorities plan to take measures against the latter.

Particular attention is also paid to the problem of shadow employment and understated tax payments at gas stations, which may be due to savings on compliance with safety standards.

“According to official data, more than 500 people are employed at more than 100 gas stations, but the actual number of employees is significantly higher,” Salavov noted.

At the same time, the total number of gas stations in the city is twice the required standard.
