Stepanenko, V.S. Environmental policy in the sphere of industrial production and consumption waste treatment at the federal level and in the constituent subjects of the Russian Federation

Abstract: The article includes analysis of the environmental policy as well as the legal regulation in the sphere of industrial production and consumption waste treatment at the federal and regional level. The author points out the shortcomings in the federal legal regulation, provides analysis of the possible amendments to the federal legislation on waste, and analyzes regional legislation in this sphere. The legal basis for the treatment of industrial production and consumption is provided for by the Federal Law of July 24, 1998 N. 89-FZ “On industrial production and consumption waste”. However, while its provisions were novel in the 1990s, currently this law fails to resolve the topical problems in this sphere. Its provisions do not meet the challenges of the current environmental situation in Russia. Many of its provisions do not correspond with the modern international, European and foreign legislation. The contents of federal legislation on waste is developed, complemented and specialized within the constituent subjects of the Russian Federation. More than 30 constituent subjects have passed regional normative legal acts in the sphere of waste treatment, which is quite valuable, since it is impossible to have a uniform law, which would take into account specific features of all of the constituent subjects of the Russian Federation.
