Abstract
Based on the analysis of strategic documents and other regulatory legal acts, the authors of the article attempt to consider a number of issues of the state environmental policy of the Russian Federation designed to contribute to the implementation of the UN sustainable development goals in the field of environmental management. The opinion is expressed that a successful environmental policy in the implementation of the UN sustainable development goals is possible only with a systematic approach to the implementation of environmental legislation. The authors analyze the measures, undertaken by the Russian Federation in the use and protection of forests and water resources, in terms of their effectiveness and draw a number of conclusions.

Summary
New global challenges of our time forced the outdated traditional model of the economy, which could no longer resist these challenges, to change. Like many other developed countries of the world, is undergoing a difficult process of reorienting to build a new model in accordance with the Sustainable Development Goals. On September 25, 2015, UN member states adopted 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) until 2030 and 169 tasks which the countries of the world must fulfill in this period. Such a reorientation of the country requires changes both at the level of the regulatory legal base, and at the organizational and managerial level in all spheres of the country's life. State regulation of forest and water relations during the reform period is of great importance. Debatable by theorists and practitioners is the issue of expanding the scope of private regulation in the field of forest relations
