History


An ostrog (fortress) was built on the present site of the town in the 17th century;[citation needed] however, the modern town was not founded until 1966,[citation needed] during the construction of the Ust-Ilimsk Hydroelectric Power Station, which backs up both the Angara and the Ilim Rivers, and, incidentally, flooded the old town of Ilimsk, which was located further up the Ilim. The region was the site of one of the most notorious gulags of the 1930s [citation needed] ; tens of thousands died in the camp [citation needed] .

Town status was granted to it in 1973;[citation needed] the dam was completed in 1980.


Administrative and municipal status


Within the framework of administrative divisions, Ust-Ilimsk serves as the administrative center of Ust-Ilimsky District,[4] even though it is not a part of it.[citation needed] As an administrative division, it is incorporated separately as the Town of Ust-Ilimsk[1]—an administrative unit with the status equal to that of the districts.[citation needed] As a municipal division, the Town of Ust-Ilimsk is incorporated as Ust-Ilimsk Urban Okrug.[5]

Economy and infrastructure


Alongside the hydroelectric plant, a thermal power plant, sawmills and industries such as food production are employers in the town.

A 214-kilometer (133 mi) branch railway connects Ust-Ilimsk to Khrebetovka on the Baikal-Amur Mainline. The town is also connected by road to Bratsk.

Ust-Ilimsk has a tram line, constructed by a local timber company to connect the city center with a nearby sawmill. Construction of the tramway began in 1982, with its opening in 1985. The line was later extended to a total length of 18 kilometers (11 mi).[citation needed] Traffic is coordinated to coincide with shift change times at the mill, as well as hourly runs outside these times. There are plans to extend the line to a new mill to the north of the town, as well as to the city railway station.

The Ust-Ilimsk Airport was closed in 2001.
