9 Today Western Kazakhstan has become the source of great attention of international companies, politicians, scientists, businessmen who are attracted to the area by gas and oil. One of the largest companies founded here is Karachaganak. Today Western Kazakhstan has become the source of great attention of international companies, politicians, scientists, businessmen who are attracted to the area by gas and oil. One of the largest companies founded here is Karachaganak. This project was started in 1992, when Kazakhstans government held tender for gas and oil extraction. Thanks to increasing of the extraction of natural resources, Karachaganak has become the leader in gas and oil industry. At the beginning of 2001 it was planned to construct a pipeline for another large project refining plant.

10 The new refining plant means real possibility for growth of the local economy, jobs for people and many other good prospects. On the other hand, it influences the environmental health of the local population and increasing danger of accidents. The regional Department of Environmental Protection foresees that discharges into the environment will increase three times. And what about poisonous pollutions in case of accidents and failures against which nobody can be guaranteed? That means the increasing of environmental discharges for everything alive. We can see from the example of our neighbors, Atyrau people living near the Tengis deposit. From the beginning of the joint ventures activity - Tengis Shevroil (1993) 190 people died in the nearest village and it was reported that at the enterprise there were 65 deaths. Many of the people died of cerebral circulation dysfunction, cancer and heart attacks. It was mentioned in the ecologists account that the company didnt undertake safety measures in gas burning. It was also reported that the compressor station which was put into the operation in 1997 didnt work well because of drawbacks.

13 Today the Aral and surrounding territories are world- known for ecological disasters attributed mainly to anthropogenous factors. The growth in water consumption connected to cultivation of new irrigated territories, where mainly cotton and rice are grown, together with the increase in the population working in agriculture, the flow of water to the sea from the two major river systems -the AmuDarya and SyrDarya - completely stopped.
