Oil-pipe line exploiting is connected inevitably with an influence upon natural biotopes. The route of our investigation
of technogenic biotopes passed along 30 km of oil-pipeline protection zone. There were found 11 vascular plant species from
173 of Yaroslavl Region Red Book: Carex sylvatica Huds., Dactylorhiza baltica (Klinge) Orlova, Dactylorhiza fuchsii (Druce)
Soó, D. incarnata (L.) Soó, D. maculata (L.) Soó, Glyceria lithuanica (Gorski) Gorski, Listera ovata (L.) R.Br., Neottia
nidus-avis (L.) Rich., Ophioglossum vulgatum L., Veratrum lobelianum Bernh., Platanthera bifolia (L.) Rich, in addition
Dactylorhiza baltica also is the species of Russian Federation Red Book. The important information including status of Red
Book plant species, category of protection, biotopes and living state is given in the article together with the indispensable
protective measures fot its preservation and the necessity of periodical plant monitoring. Some Red Book plant populations
are scanty or even found in a single number. The most of them are corresponding with satisfactory living states. Species of
Dactylorhiza are more prevailing in pipeline protection zone than other Red Book plants. This phenomenon is connected
with auspicious conditions of lighting and moistening in meadow and marsh-meadow biotopes that are formed after felling
trees and shrubs. Within protection zone with Red Book plants felling is expedient in autumnal period after ripening and
seeds fall. During reconstruction of oil-pipeline transplantation of Red Book plants is higly recommended to the nearest
appropriate biotope not included in the area of reconstructive work, but optimally to the protected areas.
