To study and perform the above mentioned tasks, a trip to the project road sections was arranged, where measurements of noise generated from the movement of vehicles were carried out, as well as water samples from open surface water were obtained. Noise measurements were performed by the related electronic software to measure the sound level meter. Noise measurements were carried out at a distance of 7-10 meters from the axis of the roadway, that is, the measurements were performed on the side of project roads at a height of 1.0-1.5 meters above the ground. In addition, when performing field work, we obtained water samples from open water sources (river, canal, ditch and drainage collectors), one sample from each project site on road, in the amount of 39 samples. The selected water samples were handed over to the chemical laboratory of the State Unitary Enterprise (SUE) "Uzbekhydrogeology", to perform a reduced chemical analysis. To determine the dust content in the atmosphere, we turned to the laboratory of the “Center of Hydrometeorological Service under the Ministry of Emergency Situations “UZGIDROMET”, where we received the average annual dust content in the air in 4 areas - Andijan, Namangan, Fergana and Tashkent regions. (Annex № 2) All indicators of the noise level on each road with the specified minimum, maximum and average daily indicators are given in Annex No 3. 3 FINDINGS According to the results of the work performed and the laboratory data on the content of dust in atmospheric air, noise level indicators and indicators of the chemical composition of surface water, the following conclusion can be drawn: - air quality in terms of dust content 0.1 mg / m3 - not more than 0.7 MPC. SanPiNRUz No. 0293-11 Hygienic standards list of maximum permissible concentrations (MAC) of pollutants in the atmospheric air of populated areas in the territory of the Republic of Uzbekistan (see Annex – 1, 2). - noise level - according to the results of the measurement on 40 roads, the following results were obtained, indicated in the Annex – 3. The average noise level is 47.48 dB, the minimum 5.8 dB a / d. 4K897b (km 0-2), maximum 84.9 DBA a / d. 4K104a (km 0-4). According to the "SanPin №0325-16" table. 1 Sanitary norms of permissible noise levels at workplaces and KMК2.01.08-96 “Noise protection” Annex - 5 Table 1 p. 162, the noise level should not exceed 75 DBa. - water quality: According to the results of chemical analysis of water samples taken in chemical laboratories of the Uzbekhydrogeology State Unitary Enterprise, the dense residue of water soluble salts averages at 727 mg / l with a maximum of 1266 mg / l, minimum 188 mg / l, the water is light-salted, only in one obtained water sample from the collector the dense residue indicator is 3750 mg / l (see Annex 4). Water in irrigators, canals and rivers does not exceed sanitary standards with the exception of water from collectors. RD118.0027719.5-91 Nature Conservancy.

  • Uzbekistan 2020 International Religious Freedom Report
    UZBEKISTAN 2020 INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM REPORT Executive Summary The constitution provides for freedom of religion or belief and separation of government and religion. Throughout the year, the government consulted with international legal scholars regarding draft updates to the law on religion, and on August 6, it officially requested a joint opinion from the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) and the Council of Europe’s Venice Commission. On October 12, the OSCE end Venice Commission issued their joint opinion, stating that while the draft provided some improved protections, it also allowed the government to maintain strict and excessive control over religion and religious freedom. It also stated, “The Draft Law should be substantially revised in order to ensure its full compliance with international human rights standards and OSCE human dimension commitments.” At year’s end, the draft remained under discussion in parliament. The government announced that during the year, it released or reduced the sentences of 243 prisoners detained on religious charges. Some activists and nongovernmental organization (NGO) representatives said the government continued ill treatment of prisoners, including physical abuse, and in some cases sought to extend the prison terms of persons arrested and jailed on suspicion of religious extremism or participating in Islamic activity not sanctioned by the government. The government did not provide the number of individuals in custody at year’s end, but it reported that criminal cases were filed against 38 persons for membership in groups or participation in “banned religious extremist activities.” It also reported it initiated 22 criminal cases regarding the “smuggling of banned religious material.” Of the two bloggers detained by police in 2019, one was given a three-year prison sentence.

  • Uzbek: War, Friendship of the Peoples, and the Creation of Soviet Uzbekistan, 1941-1945
    Making Ivan-Uzbek: War, Friendship of the Peoples, and the Creation of Soviet Uzbekistan, 1941-1945 By Charles David Shaw A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Yuri Slezkine, Chair Professor Victoria Frede-Montemayor Professor Victoria E. Bonnell Summer 2015 Abstract Making Ivan-Uzbek: War, Friendship of the Peoples, and the Creation of Soviet Uzbekistan, 1941-1945 by Charles David Shaw Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Yuri Slezkine, Chair This dissertation addresses the impact of World War II on Uzbek society and contends that the war era should be seen as seen as equally transformative to the tumultuous 1920s and 1930s for Soviet Central Asia. It argues that via the processes of military service, labor mobilization, and the evacuation of Soviet elites and common citizens that Uzbeks joined the broader “Soviet people” or sovetskii narod and overcame the prejudices of being “formerly backward” in Marxist ideology. The dissertation argues that the army was a flexible institution that both catered to national cultural (including Islamic ritual) and linguistic difference but also offered avenues for assimilation to become Ivan-Uzbeks, part of a Russian-speaking, pan-Soviet community of victors. Yet as the war wound down the reemergence of tradition and violence against women made clear the limits of this integration. The dissertation contends that the war shaped the contours of Central Asian society that endured through 1991 and created the basis for thinking of the “Soviet people” as a nation in the 1950s and 1960s.
