Problems of Regulatory/legal Control in Issues of Protection against Floods and Ways of their Solution

Abstract

Analysis of the Russian legislation has been made, the absence of direct action norms concerning delineation of the flood-hazardous territories’ boundaries and limitation of their use. By-laws contain a number of contradictions in terms of risk assessment methods, reparation of damages, mechanisms of funding and other topical problems. Proposals on reforming of regulatory/legal control in the issues of flood protection, as well as tasks on their scientific support have been made.
