The article discusses the impact of competition in the market of aquatic biological resources on the end-user price of fish products and the introduction of an auction quota mechanism for the catch of aquatic biological resources proposed by the Federal Antimonopoly Service of Russia to increase competition in the industry and cut prices in retail fish markets. The study aims to test the hypothesis that the fishing industry has a high level of monopolisation and low competition based on the data on the allocation of quotas for the aquatic biological resources of the largest fishery region—the Far East fishery basin. Technical issues of conducting research in the Far East fish products market are considered using concentration coefficients and taking into account its specificity, geographical location, and trade flows of fish products. Based on the distribution of quotas for the total allowable catch of the magister armhook squid (Berryteuthis magister), walleye pollock, Pacific herring, cod, Kamchatka crab, and smear dab in the subzones of the Far East fishing area, (1) market shares of fishing enterprises are analysed, leading producers are identified in each of the analysed segments with an estimate of their specific share in the total volume of quotas for aquatic biological resources, (2) the CR3 concentration ratio and the Herfindahl-Hirschman index are calculated, with the variance of the quotas, the mode and the median of the distribution of the quotas additionally calculated. Assessment of the CR3 concentration index and the Herfindahl–Hirschman index for the producers of Pacific herring, walleye pollock, cod, Kamchatka crab,and smear dab allowed classifying these markets as non-concentrated, while a significantly higher concentration was found for the magister armhook squid producers. The study did not confirm the assumption of monopolisation and high concentration of the fishing industry. The formation of the retail market price of fish products is influenced by various factors, including logistics, the number of resellers, and some others. Alternative distribution channels for fishing companies, reduction of the number of intermediaries between producers and retail consumers, and the creation of fish markets may prove an effective way to develop the industry.

Active development of the territories of Siberia and the Far East requires the use of materials that are able to work under the combined influence of low temperatures and a complex state. When operating equipment parts at low temperatures, it is necessary to take into account the impact of static and dynamic loads, as well as the influence of an external aggressive environment. The paper studies corrosion-resistant cold-resistant metastable austenitic steels, which are widely used for manufacturing parts of low-temperature equipment. Tests were performed to assess the strength and ductility characteristics of smooth samples and samples with annular notches for static stretching in the temperature range from 293 to 77 K.

The results of studies of anthropogenic landscapes functioning with an assessment on the processes of natural self revegetation are summarized. The principles of accelerated restoration of the ecological and aesthetic value of disturbed landscapes at the permafrost zone are substantiated, based on the data obtained during studying the selfrevegetation processes on disturbed complexes. Development of placer and ore deposits of mineral resources is leading to deep transformation of landscape and to destruction of soil-vegetable complexes. The processes caused by mining-technical activity are leading to variable mechanisms of degradation of soil and vegetables often having complex impact. Results of study of sustainability of soil-vegetable complexes to the impact of mancaused activity have showed the dependence from the structure of the soil profile and it characteristic, from the character of genetic horizons, frozen status of the landscape elements, form the structure and biomass and productivity of vegetation cover.

As an Oriental, born and raised in Taiwan in strict conformity to the precepts of Buddhist and Confucian ethical patterns for human behaviour and who has spent most of her life in active business throughout the Far East, I would like to say in the first place that China’s contact with the West since the first half of the 19th century is a story full of disturbances. The slow process of adaptation and adjustment of China to the new situation created by Western aggressions was quite haphazard since China’s solid cultural self-consciousness made it underestimate the significance of the impact from the West, and particularly the impact emanating from the Anglo-Saxon part of the world.

The article focuses on the main factors influencing the safety of navigation, such as natural factors, man-made impact, depreciation aspect, operational impact and human factor. The analysis of marine accidents in the far East region determined the value of its technical component. The statistics of the machinery failures on fishing vessels is given. One out of ten accidents has been stated to occur as a result of force majeure events, three quarters of the accidents are related to the human factor in the form of personnel erroneous actions, the rest happen due to technical imperfection of the ships. The chart shows the distribution of accidents by years due to failures and breakdowns of ship technical equipment given in percentage figures. Breakdowns of the main engines, auxiliary mechanisms and their elements, including their systems, annually make up 33.9 - 40.7% of the total number of accidents. Characteristic failures of ship technical equipment are: breakdowns of the main engines, auxiliary diesel generators, auxiliary mechanisms, electrical equipment, screw-steering complex with the shaft line, automation systems. Statistics of the causes of breakdowns of propulsion plant, auxiliaries, main systems and their elements is proportional to the data of similar studies. An attempt has been made to evaluate the importance of the operator-machine link at all levels of responsibility for coastal personnel and ship crews. The impact on the man-machine link in the whole chain of operation of the vessel is important; thus, there was set a task to carry out a quantitative investigation of the reliability of this link. In terms of the ergotechnical component of the fishing fleet operation there has been substantiated the necessity of developing measures (technical, economic, informational, legal) to improve the quality of the vessel activity.

Развитие предпринимательской деятельности в приграничных регионах является одним из важных, факторов экономического и социального развития России. В ходе работы были изучены регионы Дальнего Востока. Дается характеристика предпринимательской деятельности в регионе. Представлены результаты анализа предпринимательской деятельности по отраслям экономики. Business activity is one of the important factors of economic and social development of many countries, including Russia. In the structure of the economy of the Far East, the leading place belongs to the industry, mainly the fishing industry. However, the food industry does not meet the needs of the region. One of the leading industries of the region is the production of gold, both loose and ore. To stimulate the growth of business entities requires the improvement of existing effective programs and the development of new ones.
