In the vicinity of the Upper Sysert, a closed from outside the territory, burned down government complex "Cedar" - a favorite recreation Yeltsin and all the governors of the Sverdlovsk, starting with Eduard Rossel. The public and the media did not have to know about it: the fire, which was extinguished dozens of settlements under the personal supervision of the Chief of Emergency Situations, removed from the summaries, as well as the doctrine held by the documents. «URA.Ru» know all the details of this incident. We have proved and exclusive photos of the burnt "Cedar".

Two weeks ago, the government's base of rest "Cedar" came to rest senior officials of the company: according to insiders "URA.Ru", the initiator of the meeting was the head of the Sverdlovsk region Azat Salikhov Government Office. Party senior official ended in fire. The fire started with a sauna: heating elements included at full capacity, and left the steam room to warm up. Because of the "korotnuvshey" wiring is lit, followed, as the match, broke out all base building.

Fight fire came about ten UNITSart. "Machines come with Bobrowski, from the mine asbestos, with click beetles" - said "URA.Ru" one of the firemen. The first arrived on the scene from the nearby settlements Sysert. Given the status of the object in the "Cedar" has gathered a lot of heads: on the place of the emergency came personally Head of EMERCOM in the Sverdlovsk region Andrey Zalensky. But it was in vain: the government complex building burned to the ground.

The fact that the fire "URA.Ru" confirmed in the natural park "Bazhov place" (the earth around the base of "Cedar" have the status of a specially protected territory of the state). Park had to mobilize all on duty at the time of inspection. "Our guys went with backpacks firefighters - stood around the perimeter of the fire," - said "URA.Ru" Methodist Park Sergey Sanatin. "Base, even if they fall within the perimeter of the park, its territory is not our territory - forest reserve around, and our task was to look to the forest did not caught fire," - said the director of "Bazhov Places» Anton Kuvshinskii.

In the MOE and the authorities about emergency scrambled hidden: The fire did not get in the official reports of rescue agencies. To cancel "diesel fuel", according to the documents have all spent as a scientist. Officially, the Ministry of Emergency Situations of this fact does not comment on anything. However, the murder will not hide: the news of the fire was one of the most talked about in the Sverdlovsk region government. And Sysert Today, every second knows that burned around the government base: the second week the trucks are taken out from the ashes, garbage.

Fire - Best Auditor

The most striking thing in this story: everything that happened would not have happened. Two years ago in the Upper Sysert eliminated fire post, all the staff reduced. Firefighter post does not refer to the MOE and the regional department of public safety (fire departments as well as in other surrounding villages). Former employees of the disbanded disagree about the reasons for closing it: according to one version, it was due to a corruption scandal - the authorities in Zarechny and Yekaterinburg was easier to liquidate part.

Upper Sysert, as well as all children's camps, recreation and luxury cattedzhnye villages in the district were left without cover fire. The nearest fire station is now - Sysert, to which 10 km (to the base "Cedar" six - Ed.). "All the standards are well known: if the machine was in the Upper Sysert, she would come into place in 9 minutes, - says one of the firemen - and so the first payment came from Sysert only 40 minutes, the rest - through 1h 20m - 1h 30m ".

One of Sysertsky bloggers Const Ivanov, published on his Facebook page post: according to him, on the smoking ashes of "Cedar" came personally Sverdlovsk Governor Yevgeny Kuyvashev - he demanded that a fire had been pulled all the forces of the neighboring fire stations (although this It was useless). According to the blogger, the cost of the burnt base - about a billion rubles (legendary, two-story mansion that was really built of cedar). "The contents of the fire cost the budget of 1 million rubles per year", - he leads the figures for comparison.

"Burned millions, but even this is not the worst thing, - says the former head of the fire station in the Upper Sysert Sergey Ermoat. - Around the sanatorium "Ray", where children stay all year round - up to 100 people from 3 to 10 years. If the lights or resort to some summer camp - here it will be the victim, "In his story, not so long ago at the farm" Luch "there was a fire, burned people!. "If a fire truck stood in the Upper Sysert, this would not have happened," - said Yegorov.

I agree with him absolutely all the inhabitants of the Upper Sysert. "What we have here was a fire! - Says a local resident Ivan. - The village has a village, basically all wood, and without the fire station, we did "" Next "Gulf" - is a neighborhood in the woods, at home 200-300 squares, wall thickness - 40 cm - says the head of village administration Mikhail Serkov. - If it is windy and dry, fire storm can occur. "

To build a new fire station in the Upper Sysert gathered five years ago: Sysert administration was even ready to provide land. "There were two of land acquisition, the first at the entrance to the village, but there banned traffic police, the second option - near the dam Top-Sysertsky etc.oud ", - said Serkov. The alternative, in which even the building did not need anything, too, found no support from the authorities. "Camp" Prometheus "(from" Uraltransgaz ") to us at the time suggested," we are based in boxing for free - only to guard us, "- says the head of the township!. Today, in view of the crisis, and no one does not hope that the new part of the Upper Sysert will be built.

Obkomovskie cottages

The fire was far occurred two weeks ago, is not the first in the history of the government's base "Cedar". She was burned, and more than once, including ground. The first fire took place in the 70-ies. In the mid-90s burned bath, but then she was in a separate building, and the main body is hardly affected.

When Governor Rossel house base were taken to Maly Istok, in its place the next Governor Misharin from scratch to build a new house. The road to the base is ideal - it was built anew to the SCO and BRIC summits in 2009 in Yekaterinburg. According to the stories, the complex was planned to settle the Chinese delegation. Here, in a huge enclosure, contained imported for MiSharina three deer (one of whom escaped).

Old-timers say that Rossel at the request of Putin brought in "Cedar" Yeltsin in the last years of his life. The first Russian president nostalgia for the days when he was the head of the Sverdlovsk Regional Party Committee, and came here for a vacation. However, the most striking legend is connected not with the base "Cedar", and with a hopper located nearby - the backup node government communication: say that in 1991, when there was a coup, here was evacuated government headquarters.

"Cedar" is often confused with a bunker, believing that the base area and the approaches to it are closed due to the military facility. "There is nothing there of the military, there is no secret - it's just the government recreation area region, - says the former head of the fire department of the Upper Sysert, which does not happen ever again based on in order to check the water intake sources. - Every spring and autumn we toured these facilities. " In this case on the basis of an armed guard, and the path to it - several cordons. The last 300 meters after CPR barrier with road runs along the causeway across the pond.

thisday "Cedar" refers to the government's therapeutic recreation complex "Garnet Bay", being its division. But if you get to the LOC can be almost any regional official, the access to the "Cedar" - only for the elite. "The road between the forest and the quality of swamps, she would envy any Sysertsky leads to a mound across the river with romantic lanterns at night and some wooden houses, however, unavailable due to security and barrier - write syserttsy at the city forum - there ride, despite signs with restrictions, dissolute kind of girls on the Porsche Cayenne and "papiki" on Kruzak with snouts half the windshield. "

Investigation into the causes of fire occurred recently also kept secret: customer service representative inquiry Sysertsky MOE units refused to communicate with the press. However, «URA.Ru» managed to find out some details of the investigation. So, contrary to persistent rumors of a VIP party and a party drunk, according to fire investigators, at the time of the fire base was empty, supposedly no one but the protection of the territory and had no rooms. To establish a claimrichin ignition assigned fire-technical expertise: experts examine the charred wires shutting out the wiring and elements of IR systems - electric heaters.

Fire investigators have extended the test to 30 days, which suggests that it is not too easy, and can lead to ugolovke. "If a short circuit caused by the fault of the operating organization, what questions to ask is the operator, - says the source" URA.Ru », close to the investigation. - But, perhaps, there will be no criminal structure: cases in which such matters are not of a crime - not a rarity.
