Abstract
Since 2018, there has been a large-scale reform in the legal institution of restricted use areas (hereinafter referred to as RUAs). The Land Code of the Russian Federation (hereinafter referred to as the Land Code) was supplemented by Chapter XIX (Restricted Use Areas) (Articles 104 to 107). The established RUA types related to the placement of main oil and oil product pipelines (hereinafter collectively referred to as oil pipelines) include: (1) exclusion zones (Article 105, Clause 6, of the Land Code), (2) zones in close proximity to main pipelines (Article 105, Clause 25, of the Land Code), (3) sanitary protection zones (Article 105, Clause 18, of the Land Code). The complex legal writing of the RUA laws, poorly developed and monotonous judicial practice gives rise to many controversial situations. This paper examines problems that arise with legal regulation of main oil pipeline RUAs. There are currently no legal studies that comprehensively address the problems of exclusion zones, close proximity zones, or sanitary protection zones of main oil pipelines. Therefore, conducting legal research in order to develop proposals for improving the regulation of RUAs of main oil pipelines is extremely important and urgent.
