THE EVALUATION OF THE LEVEL OF TECHNOLOGICAL LOAD IN ZHYTOMYR REGION
Abstract
The paper estimates the level of technological load in Zhytomyr region by its districts. In the investigation the authors used such parameters as the area of an administrative territorial unit, the number of its inhabitants, polluted emissions and the number of ecologically dangerous objects. It has been found that the critical level of technological load is inherent to the city of Zhytomyr. The city of Berdychiv as well as Andrushivka, Baranivka, Berdychiv, Brusyliv, Khoroshiv, Zhytomyr, Korostyshiv, Lyubar, Novograd-Volynskyi, Popilnya, Radomyshl, Romaniv, Ruzhyn, Tchernyakhiv and Chudniv Districts belong to the substantial load level. The minor level is characteristic of the city of Malyn as well as Narodychi and Olevsk Districts
