Remediation Measures for Accumulated Environmental Damages Using Principles of Sustainable Development: A Case Study of Russian Regions

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Sustainability Perspectives: Science, Policy and Practice

Abstract

Remediation of environmental damages accumulated from the past requires support in form of regional and federal policies. To ensure that such policies are formulated and established, the analysis of existing practices is conducted. The analysis reveals the main components of the restoration process including environmental objects, stakeholders, tools, and institutions responsible for policy implementation and enforcement mechanisms. A special attention is paid to increasing the efficiency of remediation measures from the environmental-economic perspectives. It supports further generalization of remediation measures for accumulated environmental damages and lead to recommendation for local authorities to implement them in practice and to return damaged territories into economic activities through the restoration process.
