Саянско-Иркутский район
Это очень крупный район, занимающий всю южную половину трассы. Несмотря на очевидную внутреннюю неоднородность в отношении ландшафтного облика и социально-экономического освоения, этот район в целом имеет высокую степень трансформированности природной среды. Антропогенные (техногенные) комплексы (агроценозы, промышленные территории, вырубки, коридоры коммуникаций) занимают на большей части района более 60%, местами достигая 90% площади.
Saynsk-Irkutsk region
It is a very large region occupying the whole southern part of the pipeline route. Despite obvious internal heterogeneity of landscape and socioeconomic development, a natural environment of this region has incurred a large-scale transformation. Anthropogenic (technogenic) landscape complexes (agrocenosises, industrial areas, felled areas, pipeline corridors) occupy more than 60% and or sometimes up to 90% of the area.

has been greatly altered


Explanation:
"...the natural landscape of this region has been greatly altered. Anthropogenic... cover 60% of area throughout most of the region, and in some places up to 90%.

"altered" seems to be slightly more common than "transformed" and was the term that came first to my mind in this context, though the latter is also correct.
