According to the company’s public relations office, the
assessment was conducted in line with Article 15 of Iran’s Clean Air Act. The
green space established around the company’s flare area, together with previous
landscaping at Site Two, completed the company’s statutory commitment.
The area was inspected by Mozani, head of the Asaluyeh
Department of Environment, accompanied by Sabalan Petrochemical managers and
technical experts. The department subsequently approved the green space.
The flare-area green space was established in late 2024
using native plant species suited to the region’s climate, including Ziziphus,
Iranian mesquite and Indian fig. The company has also undertaken the necessary
maintenance measures to ensure the vegetation remains sustainable.
The commitment was fulfilled before Site Two enters full
operation, reflecting the company’s preventive approach and its stated
commitment to environmental protection and social responsibility, the report
said.
Sabalan Petrochemical had previously met the 10-percent
green space requirement for Site One through a green-space development project
in Dehno village and other related measures, which were also approved by the
relevant authorities.
