The Environment Agency publishes a notice under paragraph 47(2) of the General Law on the Environment (KeÜS).

The Environment Agency States that the aktsiaselts Tootsi Turvas (registry code: 10021374) (address: Papiniidu 5, Pärnu City, Pärnu City, 80042 Pärnu County) submitted an application for authorisation to exploit a resource in the Pööravere peat production area, which was accepted by the Environment Agency. The company has been granted mineral extraction authorisation l.mk.pm-36844 FOR the extraction of PEAT from the mountain allocation FOR the Coast PEAT production area WITH effect from 20.12.2019. On 30.09.2017, a residue assessment has been carried out in the beech peat production area, on the basis of which the data from the Pärravere peat field have been corrected. During the period of validity of the mining permit, the stock of peat in the entire production area cannot be exhausted. The company wishes to continue mining in the peat production area, but since the peat production area is at different stages of extraction, it is intended to divide the peat production area of the Bothnian Sea into two different hill reserves for the peat production area of the Bothnian Sea and the peat production area of the Bothnian stock II in order to start the restoration of the hill extraction as soon as possible when the stock is exhausted.

The beetroot peat production area is located in the municipality of Pärnu, in the municipality of North Pärnu, in Metsavere, on two plots of solvent in the State-owned cadastral parcels of the Pööravere peat production area (cadastral mark 63801:001:0162, register number 2432506) and the Pööravere peat production area (cadastral mark 27601:005:0024, register number 2432506) in the Pärvere peat area (register number 0096).

The area covered by the mountain allocation for the peach production area is 445,41 ha and the area covered by the mountain allocation is 573,92 ha. According to the application for authorisation for the extraction of mineral resources, on 30.06.2019 the amount of the active consumption of low-degraded peat in the Pepherave peat production area is 1378 thousand t and the amount of the excavated stock is 1378 thousand T and the amount of the active consumption of well-degraded peat is 1611 thousand t and the excavated stock is 1463 thousand t. Mining is requested to have a maximum annual extraction rate of 40 thousand t. the fields of exploitation are agricultural and fuel peat. The period of validity of the authorisation applied for shall be 30 years.
