LEGAL AND TECHNICAL PROBLEMS OF DETERMINING THE BOUNDARIES OF WATER BODIES ON THE EXAMPLE OF LAKE BAIKAL

Abstract

The location of the boundaries of territories and zones is a characteristic, neglect of which can jeopardize not just the fact of the integrity of the object, but also the question of its existence. Therefore, the individualization of objects has always been assigned a special role. On the example of unsuccessful attempts to determine the boundaries of Lake Baikal and the corresponding zones with special conditions for the use of territories, the article examines the features of the development of legislation in this area. A comprehensive analysis of the causes and consequences of incorrect determination of the boundaries of the coastline, coastal protective strip and water protection zone of Lake Baikal has been carried out. The spontaneous legal practical experience of law enforcers was taken into account, starting with the ideological and normative-conceptual model, which was forcedly formed in the conditions of unsystematic scientific and technical measures, ending with variations of judicial interpretations of the true will of the legislator. Drawing attention to the problems of unsystematic entry and use of information from the Unified State Register of Real Estate in the management of the coastal territories of Lake Baikal is one of the main goals of the authors of this publication. The article provides general recommendations for correcting the situation.
