| Summary: | Abstract The article discusses the problems and features of the legal regulation of environmental management in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation located in the Far North of the Arctic. Due to their geographical location, climatic conditions and underdeveloped infrastructure, these entities were and remain problematic regions in terms of subsoil use. It is indicated that the legal and legislative practice of the Arctic states themselves plays the leading role in the legal status of the Arctic. At the same time, international treaties should be applied taking into account the references to regional agreements contained in them. According to the authors, the regulation of the relations of subsoil use for exploration and production of the main types of minerals should be carried out with the active participation of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, which may contribute to the rational and integrated use of subsoil. It is proposed to add and amend the relevant legislation of the Russian Federation. |
