In 2017, the construction of a hydroelectric power station and a reservoir in the vicinity of Vitebsk was completed. The level of the Zapadnaya Dvina was raised a few meters, flooding one of the rapids dangerous for transport navigation - Verkhovsky. The resulting reservoir flooded the floodplain of the river. As a result, landscapes lying in the valley of the Western Dvina underwent irreversible changes. Of interest to monitor the dynamics of the situation around the Vitebsk Hydroelectric Power Plant are the implemented in 2012 expeditionary studies of S.I.
