In particular, branch cutting started after the meeting attended by Almaty Akim (Mayor) Akhmetzhan Yessimov and Emergency Situations Minister Vladimir Bozhko. According to Koval, timber will be partially sold, the rest will be processed at the territory of the park. However, this requires installation for mini-plants close to heap of fallen trees. As per Koval, 480 hectares of forest was damaged by the storm, which makes the total of 97 thousand cubic meters of timber. The plan is to clean off 70 hectares this year, which requires 76 million tenge ($520 thousand). Elimination of the consequences in general requires 250 million tenge ($1.7 million).

Fire-hazardous period has already started in the mountains and presence of tourists in the areas of fallen trees may cause massive fires.
