The Public Property Agency (PPA) on November 8 will dispute in court the results of the tender contest held in Ukraine on November 5 as a result of which an Ukrainian company was authorized to use the lot on which the crushed granite quarry in Pervomaisc is situated.

“Even if effort has been made and actions have been taken to cancel the bidding for the lot on which the crushed granite quarry in Pervomaisc is located, the Ukrainian side responsible for geology and geodesy held the tender contest,” the Agency noted in a press release that is quoted by IPN.

So far the lot was owned by the State Enterprise of the Republic of Moldova. Earlier, PPP made multiple approaches to the responsible bodies of Ukraine (Prosecutor General’s Office, Security Service, Ministry of Ecology and Mineral Resources of Ukraine and State Service of Geology and Mineral Resources of Ukraine) and even delegated a representative to monitor and remedy the situation in Kiev.

The Public Property Agency noted that only one legal entity took part in the November 5 tender contest and this was authorized to exploit the quarry. The Agency will challenge in court the results of the tender contest through its representative who is at the scene and will take all the necessary measures not to allow the state interests to be infringed.
