Abstract

This paper considered the issues of legal regulation of information support on soils. The article describes large-scale soil studies in Ukraine that were conducted during 1957-1961. The reasons for the inconsistency of the available information on the structure and condition of the soil cover were found. It was proved that environmental impact assessment data from environmental monitoring, soil surveys, cadastral documentation, etc., can be sources of environmental Information. The conducted legal analysis suggested that the Draft Law of Ukraine “On Conservation of Soil and Protection of Their Fertility” should prescribe that documented information on the state of soils and implemented measures for soil protection should be open, publicly available, since it is of public interest, except for information that is classified as restricted access.
