On April 4, U.S. Consul General Armbruster visited
Chuguevka to tour the timber plant and to open the Prokudin-Gorskiy
photo exhibition at a local museum. Chuguevka is a village of some
13,000 residents in the center of Primorskiy Kray. The heavily forested
areas boast bear, tiger, fox, sable, squirrel and other wild animals.
To its credit, the Chuguevskaya Timber Processing Company, Ltd.
has received the seal of approval from the World Wildlife Fund for
its sustainable timber harvesting in this environmentally sensitive
area. Consul General discussed the challenge of maintaining jobs
in the region with the city Administration and learned that the
village has a program in place to keep young professionals in the
region.
