Tatiana Skiba, stands in her tilted home that has been severely damaged by a landslide apparently caused by illegal dumping of construction waste above Bakinskaya Street, in Veseloe, Sochi. Environmental experts believe the nature of the waste strongly suggests it is from buildings demolished to make way for Olympic construction. In response to a joint lawsuit filed on behalf of a group of families affected by the landslide, in March 2012, the Adler District Court requested the Federal Supervisory Natural Resources Management Service to "inspect the area of the landslide and document the existence of an unlawful construction waste dump that may have triggered the landslide." To date, the authorities have not conducted any inspections at Skiba's home.
