Investment In Fixed Assets

Introduction. Developing environmental entrepreneurship and attracting investments in the sphere of waste management are relevant for increasing the sustainability of economic systems in the circumstances of catastrophic environmental pollution, climate change, and depletion of natural resources. Based on the conducted research, the article assesses the impact of industrial and consumer waste generation on the development of the regional investment market in the sphere of waste management. Materials and Methods. A systemic analysis of the databases of the Federal State Statistics Service characterizing the development of the investment market in the sphere of waste management was performed using the correlation, factor, and regression (linear and nonlinear) methods of analysis, as well as the analysis of variance. On the basis of econometric dynamic modeling using instrumental variables, the study has revealed the dependence of the volume of investment in fixed assets in the Russian Federation aimed at environmental protection and rational use of natural resources on the volume and structure of generated industrial and consumer waste. Results. The volume of investment in fixed assets in the Russian Federation aimed at environmental protection and rational use of natural resources has been prognosticated taking into account the statistical criteria; conclusions have been drawn about strong influence of the dynamics of industrial and consumer waste generation. Based on the conducted research, proposals for increasing investment activity in the sphere of waste management have been formulated. Discussion and Conclusion. The sphere of waste management has a high development potential enabling this sector of the Russian economy, with appropriate competent investment policy, to solve not only environmental, but also significant macroeconomic problems. The results obtained can be used when elaborating and implementing measures aimed at the development of a waste management system, the key exogenous parameter of which, determining the magnitude of the macroeconomic effect, is the volume of investment in the production of waste collection and processing equipment.

Abstract The current plans of the Russian Federation to intensify significantly economic and other activities in Russian Arctic include the widespread exploitation of Arctic natural resources. At the same time, however, high vulnerability of the Arctic environment has been recognized in the country’s legislation. The plans for development in such a vulnerable region as the Arctic give rise to concern as to how it can be realized sustainably. For this reason, it is useful to examine one legal tool of environmental protection, an environmental assessment (EA) procedure, since this institution at least provides the possibility to enable the exploitation of Arctic’s natural resources in a way that protects the environment. Yet, as the article will point out, the conditions for effective EA have been in recent years severely limited, which can be seen in the current legislation. It is hence justifiable to be concerned of the future of Arctic vulnerable environment and, as the article proposes, restore some of the elements of the past EA legislation, which enable a stronger EA mechanism.

Household Waste Management

The study focuses on the aspects of environmental protection practices in the Russian Federation primarily with regard to industrial and household waste management. Waste now occupies significant areas and causes pollution of the adjacent territories and specifically underground waters that further mix with, and significantly spoil, ground waters. The study addresses the technologies of interaction and methods of economic stimulation to improve waste management going further both at the regional and national level. Almost no progress has been achieved in this direction in the Russian Federation over the past ten years – the main technological mechanism adopted in major cities and other major infrastructure facilities consisted in waste removal to a landfill without any specific treatment. More recently, urban and technological development has intensified environmental problems. The paper outlines waste management practices employed in Russia and other countries and provides an efficiency assessment. The basic economic mechanisms, such as tariff regulation, environmental levy and environmental impact fees, are described and assessed in terms of their stimulating effects on waste management improvement in the Russian Federation. Aspects of waste removal under a single regional operator are discussed and a model of public-private partnership in waste management is proposed and detailed.

Administrative Responsibility

The rational use of natural resources in land law is understood as the increase in the ecological efficiency of the use of natural resources, including the quality improvement. the paper identifies the types of public relations concerning the rational use of natural resources in land law: 1) improvement of the state of the natural environment and the ecological situation in general; 2) improvement of the quality of land as a separate natural resource and a natural object; 3) land reclamation; 4) land restoration; 5) additional reproduction of land fertility; 6) other relationships aimed at improving the sustainability of environmental systems of which land is a part. On the example of Part 2 Art. 8.7 of the Administrative Code of the Russian Federation, Para. 2 of Art. 45, Para. 2 of Art. 46 and Para. 1 of Art. 47 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation the paper shows the significance of differentiation between rational and sustainable use of natural resources in land law for law enforcement. The proposed differntiation leads to overcoming legal uncertainty when bringing to administrative responsibility and forced termination of rights to land plots for failure to fulfill mandatory measures for the land improvement. The author substantiates the supression from the objective side of the administrative offense provided by Part 2 of Art. 8.7 of the Administrative Code of the Russian Federation, of the failure to act on mandatory improvement of lands. The reasons for the proposed change of the rule include: 1) the absence in law enforcement practice of the facts of bringing to administrative responsibility under Part 2 Art. 8.7 of the Administrative Code of the Russian Federation for failure to comply with mandatory measures to improve lands; 2) recognition by courts in most cases of the design of part 2 of Art. 8.7 of the Administrative Code of the Russian Federation as a formally defined crime; 3) the study of Part 2 Article 8.7 of the Code of Administrative Offences of the Russian Federation in the science of Land Law exclusively in the context of the failure to implement mandatory measures to protect land and soil; 4) only social relations in the field of preservation and protection of land against negative impact can be the object of an administrative violation.

Environmentally Friendly Production

The article is devoted to the characteristics of environmental investments in the Russian Federation, which are divided into two types: the first investments are aimed at the development and implementation of environmentally friendly production technologies; the second investments are directed to the commissioning of environmental protection and nature-cleaning fixed assets. Investments of the second type are considered in more detail. The data of modern statistics show the reduction of organizations with special costs, associated with investments in the construction of environmental facilities. The dynamics of “green” investments, their structure by directions and sources of financing are analyzed. Economic methods to stimulate environmental investments of enterprises and increase, targeted government spending on the environment, are proposed. As a result, we can consider that transition is needed from the residual principle of financing environmental protection to a directed increase in targeted government spending.

В работе изучена неоднородность инвестиционного процесса на основе кластеризации регионов Российской Федерации. В качестве основных факторов для кластеризации были выбраны отношение валового регионального продукта (ВРП) и инвестиций в основной капитал на к средней численности населения региона, доля машин и оборудования в структуре инвестиций, степень износа основных фондов, доля собственных средств в структуре источников финансирования инвестиций, доля привлеченных средств в структуре источников финансирования инвестиций. Выявлены основные тенденции в инвестициях в каждой из выделенных групп регионов и выделены основные проблемы. Доказано, что регионы, имеющие недостаточный объем инвестиций, демонстрируют худшие показатели экономической динамики. The paper studies the heterogeneity of the investment process based on the clustering of regions of the Russian Federation. The main factors for clustering were the ratio of GRP and investment in fixed assets to the average population of the region, the share of machinery and equipment in the investment structure, the degree of depreciation of fixed assets, the share of equity in the structure of investment financing sources, the share of borrowed funds in the source structure investment financing. The main trends in investments in each of the selected groups of regions are identified and the main problems are identified. It is proved that regions with insufficient investment demonstrate the worst indicators of economic dynamics.
