In a number of industrialized regions of the Russian Federation, even when using efficient high technologies in the manufacturing industry under the current linear economic model, especially in the context of pandemic (COVID-19) fails to implement the sustainable development goals in all of its ecological and economic requirements. This paper analyzes models and approaches to the implementation of the concept of renewable production and consumption in conditions of maximum use of resources, including those obtained by processing various types of waste. According to the analyzed one of the models, namely the circulation economic model, resources after consumption in the form of manufactured products and the resulting waste, suitable for processing into production resources, in the form of secondary. Within the framework of rational interaction of the industrially developed regions (Moscow and Kaluga), an experimental confirmation of the efficiency of waste processing of various types is given, by building an Ecotechnopark, implemented within the framework of public-private partnership, and obtaining secondary products. In the proposed circular economic model, resources after consumption in the form of production products are returned to production after processing. In addition, a possible indicator was identified and implemented that allows integrating traditional economic indicators into the "Green" gross national product (GNP), which is the sum of the natural capital of the region and its nominal GNP and is linked to the state of the ecosystem. Recommendations and conclusions on the performed studies are made.

Water resources are an integral part of energy, industry, food and human life. Water efficiency is given a special place in the area of achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) promoted by the United Nations (UN). Water is used everywhere in everyday life and in the manufacture of products, which leads to the depletion of the water potential of a country or an entire continent. Currently, companies are actively introducing new standards for water use, keeping records of water consumption, applying innovative technologies to provide water desalination and wastewater treatment. There is a shortage of drinking water in the world, especially in overpopulated countries and the southern regions of the planet. No state can solve water use issues on its own. Currently, countries are focusing on developing technologies for desalination and wastewater treatment plants. These industries are science-intensive, innovative and require raw materials, financial resources and policy favors from the states. On the territory of the Sverdlovsk region of the Russian Federation, all known types of common minerals were found, and a special economic zone the “Titanium Valley” also operates on this territory.

The sustainable development of societies, countries, economic sectors or business enterprises is based on the assumption that economic growth, production and consumption has the limitations imposed by the possibility for rehabilitating ecological systems. Issues of the rational use of resources form the conceptual framework for the sustainable development. But the emergence of information support in form of integrated reporting of the enterprise causes much debate in the theoretical and practical field. The purpose of the study is to analyze the evolution of the provisions of the sustainable development concept and identify the preconditions for the emergence of integrated reporting of the enterprise. The components of the sustainable development and its purpose are highlighted; the sustainable development goals of UN and their respective indictors are illustrated. The relation of the categories of capital (financial, industrial, intellectual, human, social and nature capital), reflected in the integrated reporting of the enterprise, with the sustainable development goals is substantiated. The analysis shows that the top category of capital contributing in all the sustainable development goals (the total of 17) is social capital; financial capital (contributing in 14 goals) ranks second, human capital (12 goals) ranks third, production capital (10 goals) comes fourth, intellectual capital (9 goals) is the fifth, and nature capital (8 goals) ranks sixth. These results are indicative of high relevance of integrated reporting of the enterprise to the sustainable development goals.

Ensuring the required level of energy security is one of the most important objectives not only for any particular state, but worldwide also. This article is devoted to the development of a set of indicators for evaluating the implementation of the Russian Federation (RF) energy security strategy in the context of implementing the sustainable development goals (SDGs). In the course of the study the balanced scorecard was used as a basic methodology for developing a set of indicators to ensure energy security. This methodology has been adapted in accordance with the goals and objectives of the Russian Federation energy security strategy and the concept of sustainable development. Based on the analysis of indicators in terms of their relation to sustainable development goals, approaches of other countries and the availability of statistical data, a set of indicators and a strategic map for the implementation of the Russian Federation energy security strategy in the context of achieving the sustainable development goals were developed. The proposed strategic map and set of indicators will allow to monitor the implementation of the strategy, as well as afford the decision-making in the context of achieving the sustainable development goals.

The article analyses the relevance and necessity of developing a system of monitoring indicators of municipal programs by local self-government bodies in connection with adopting the Program of the Government of the Russian Federation concerning improving the efficiency of the public municipal finance management. Indicative monitoring of municipal programs is necessary for municipal authorities to adjust both individual indicators and programs in general in a timely manner. This provides an opportunity to manage the effectiveness of programs as well as to match the development goals of social and economic systems at different levels, including national goals. The basis of the indicative approach to the management of municipal programs is the existence of a long-term strategy for the social and economic development of the municipality, as well as a set of economic regulators. The basis of the monitoring is evaluating intermediate indicators of programs (reference points of implementation), monitoring the implementation of programs: final indicators, taking management decisions concerning the adjustment. The article proposes creating and applying a unified standard procedure for assessing the effectiveness of municipal programs, and gives recommendations to local selfgovernment bodies on the use of various methods of assessing the achievement of target indicators. As a result, municipalities will be able to control the use of resources and determine the strengths and weaknesses of their territory, which will allow taking timely and informed management decisions. The authors propose the method of monitoring the indicative indicators of programs. The unified methodology will allow comparing municipal entities of the Russian Federation according to the level of development, identifying and spreading successful practices of implementing municipal programs and their efficiency management. The paper presents the results of testing the methodology using the municipality of Volgograd as an example.

The problem of legal regulation of the circular economy and ecology, sustainable management of municipal solid waste at the legal and organizational levels both in the Russian Federation and in the world is now coming to the fore and requires immediate solutions. Examining strategic planning documents and other legal acts, the authors attempted to examine current legal problems in the study area in the context of modern state of ecological policy of Russia and the implementation of circular economy, realizing the sustainable development goals of the UN in the environmental area. The authors suggest that a legal assessment of the possibility of transition of Russian industrial companies to a closed-loop economy is necessary, which is associated with an active approach to processing the materials of their products after the stage of use. In conclusion, a number of conclusions are drawn about the legal acts adopted in the Russian Federation and the organizational measures being implemented that contribute to solving various problems related to the sustainable development of the most important segment of the economy and the environment – the disposal and processing of waste, reducing its volume and the possibility of secondary use due to the development of the circular economy. Innovation is an important condition for this transition.

Sustainable and balanced socio-economic development of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation cannot be carried out without planned management. However, the introduction of strategic planning systems faces a number of problems, the most important of which can be considered the shortcomings of goal-setting and forecasting of the socio-economic situation at the regional level, which has so far received insufficient attention. Orientation in the subjects of the Federation only on national goals without the possibility of using Federal management tools reduces the effectiveness of public authorities, does not allow to sufficiently take into account the specifics of regional development and social needs of the population. The analysis shows the possibility of applying the sustainable development Goals up to 2030, developed and recommended by the United Nations in 2015, which correlate with the indicators of assessing the effectiveness of senior officials of the subjects of the Federation established by the decree of the President of Russia. No less important is the problem of ensuring the implementation of strategic plans. The choice of approaches, tools and mechanisms for the implementation of strategies, programs and projects of regional development should be carried out in the context of the development of strategic planning practices, to improve the efficiency of public administration on the basis of the project approach, the expansion of the use of public-private partnership, the promotion of small and medium-sized businesses.
