Kyivvodokanal PJSC has a new leader: former head of the Podolsk District State Administration (RDSA), Serhiy Krushanovsky (pictured right). Prior to him, Dmitry Novitsky (pictured left) held the position of Chairman of the Board and General Director of Kyivvodokanal for five years.
The change in management at KV became known from information from the Ukrainian company registration data monitoring service "Opendatabot".
On April 16, 2021, Serhiy Krushanovsky became the CEO of Kyivvodokanal (*). It should be noted that Dmytro Novitsky had served as the company's CEO since April 2016. According to KV, Novitsky and Krushanovsky are old friends: they worked together at the Vyshgorod mayor's office, moved to Kyiv together, and worked at Kyivvodokanal.
According to the Kyivvodokanal PJSC website, Serhiy Krushanovsky was born on February 12, 1965, in Kyiv. He graduated from the Kyiv Construction College, the Kyiv State Technical University of Construction and Architecture (civil engineer), and the National Academy of Public Administration under the President of Ukraine with a degree in public administration, earning a Master's degree in public administration.
From 1993 to 2000, he held a number of management positions in municipal enterprises and institutions in Kyiv.
He then worked in local government and housing and utilities in local and central executive bodies. Specifically, from May 20, 2013, to March 22, 2014, he served as head of the Podolsk District State Administration.
He also held the positions of Deputy General Director of Euro-Reconstruction LLC and Director of Energostroimontazh LLC from 2014 to 2016.
Since November 2016, he held the position of advisor on optimization of management systems at Kyivvodokanal. On April 6, 2018, he was transferred to the position of Deputy General Director for Technical Issues and Prospective Development.
As KV reported, at the end of March this year, the Kyiv City State Administration (KCSA) reapproved the reconstruction project for the first stage of the Bortnychi Wastewater Treatment Plant (BSA) for the third time. PJSC Kyivmetrobud has already spent approximately UAH 190 million from the budget on this reconstruction, but there is no end in sight (the total estimated cost of the BSA reconstruction was set by the Cabinet of Ministers at UAH 38,69 billion). In the new document, the main parameters of the reconstruction, commissioned by Kyivvodokanal PJSC, remain unchanged; only the estimate has been revised. It now stands at UAH 694,5 million. This is double the initial estimate (UAH 333,5 million) and UAH 106 million, or 18%, higher than the estimate approved in 2017 (UAH 588,5 million).
KV previously reported that the deadline for the Dnipro Water Treatment Plant's transition to the long-announced chlorine dioxide water purification technology was constantly being pushed back, while the cost of its reconstruction was rising. The work is being carried out by Kyivmetrobud JSC, to which Kyivvodokanal recently agreed to pay an additional UAH 27,9 million. Therefore, the total cost of the plant's reconstruction has increased to UAH 106 million, and this is only the "first phase." Meanwhile, Kyivvodokanal is apparently still selecting the optimal water disinfection technology for the Desnyanskaya Water Treatment Plant (which supplies 60% of the city's water). One can only hope that Kyivvodokanal was right when it purchased over 2 tons of sodium chlorite for UAH 171,5 million in November 2019 for chlorine dioxide production.
It should be noted that the activities of Kyivvodokanal are coordinated by Deputy Head of the Kyiv City State Administration Petro Panteleev.
