A lawyer warned summer residents about financial liability for lighting a fire at their summer cottage.
The head of the legal office of the Moscow Union of Gardeners, Vage Rybchenko, shared a comment on this topic.
In the summer, the owner of the plot may face a fine of 10,000 to 20,000 rubles for starting a fire at his dacha, reports Moscow 24 .
Rybchenko pointed out that each region of Russia establishes its own period when the fire safety regime is in effect.
In the Moscow region, for example, it begins at the end of spring and lasts until the beginning of autumn.
Lighting fires and cooking food over an open fire is prohibited at this time of year, otherwise you will be fined.
But no one forbids cooking food on coals during this period. However, it is necessary to comply with the current fire safety rules.
The main one is to cook at a distance of at least 5 m from any kind of buildings and trees.
