Abstract
In this work, we assess possible negative effects associated with regular maintenance dredging in the port of Sabetta on the marine biological resources and coastal environment of the Gulf of Ob. The costs of environmental protection measures and сountervailing payments are determined. As a restoration activity for fish fauna, it is proposed to implement the artificial reproduction of young fish of valuable species, such as peled, siberian sturgeon, or muksun, followed by their release into the natural environement of the lakes and rivers of the West-Siberian fishery water basin.
