In 2007, within the framework of the programmes on developing urban settlements, Verkhnedvinsk Cheese and Butter Making Plant was carrying out an investment project “Construction of a workshop and purchasing an automated cheese production line and facilities for processing 180 tonnes of milk a day”. The regional authorities also plan to reconstruct the public amenities centre in the settlement of Osveya to make a hotel there, to upgrade a woodworking shop of Verkhnedvinsk Millwork and to build a recreation centre near Lake Osveyskoye for Verkhnedvinsk Raiagroservis Co. Investments are needed to carry out all the aforementioned projects.
