According to the resolution, business entities are allocated land plots in buffer zones of state reserves, national natural parks, nurseries (with the exception of zones transformed into nature reserves), forestry and forestry farms, in mountain and desert areas, as well as in water protection zones of water bodies for the creation of tourist clusters.
