Kazakhstan To Require Near Real-Time Emissions Reporting From Enterprises
AI-generated illustration
Kazakhstani enterprises will be required to transmit emissions data every 20 minutes under updated environmental control rules introduced by the Ministry of Ecology, Orda.kz reports.
The system will automatically record failures and notify companies through e-government services and by mail. All data will be collected in a single system — a national data bank on the state of the environment. The ministry says this will allow authorities to track pollution more quickly and respond faster to deviations.
Reporting rules are also changing. Enterprises will have to submit industrial environmental control reports once a quarter through a digital system. For some facilities, including those in Kazakhstan’s sector of the Caspian Sea, annual reporting will remain in place.
Some procedures are also moving online. Environmental assessments and permit applications will be available through the eGov portal. State agencies will receive some data automatically from other systems, without requiring businesses to submit it themselves.
The ministry also clarified the list of data required for environmental permits and formalized the formula for calculating emission limits. The order will enter into force 10 days after its official publication.
At the same time, the authorities are tightening sanitary control. Orda.kz previously reported that Kazakhstan had expanded the grounds for sanitary and epidemiological investigations.
