Results of zoning of territories of the West Kazakhstan area and n the middle stream of Syr-Darya on
degree of risk of flooding, and territories of the West Kazakhstan, Aktyubinsk and Karaganda areas on
degree of risk of occurrence of fires are given. In these three areas zones of the high fire risk are
allocated. High concentration of these zones on frontier (interdistrict, interregional, interrepublican)
territories is noted.
