Abstract:

In the period from 1984 to 1988, the Institute "Lengiprogor", we developed two major projects: “the Territorial complex scheme of nature protection on the slopes the construction of gas pipelines in Western Siberia and the far North” and "Territorial complex scheme of nature protection of the West Siberian oil and gas complex". These unique in scale and the problems of work revealed the way complex decisions complex environmental and social problems that arose in the course of accelerated development of the West Siberian oil and gas complex. These objects were not only a powerful factor in the development of regional economy, creation of new settlement systems, transport communications, construction industry, engineering and social infrastructure, but at the same time provided in the process of construction and operation the strongest negative impact on the environment, the living conditions of the indigenous population. Currently, due to changes in economic and socio-political situation in the country, a new state policy in the field of development of the North and the Arctic, the transformation of the whole productive structure ZSNGK, social processes taking place in the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation, and also in connection with new legislative and regulatory requirements in the field of environmental protection and urban planning, it is necessary to develop new projects on contemporary legislative, methodological, legal, organizational and technological base. It is proposed to develop a "Scheme of territorial planning of areas of intensive development of fuel-energy and raw materials complex in the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation in the field of environmental protection". The structure and content of this work needs to rely on documents defining the state policy in the field of sustainable development of the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation and meet the requirements of the town planning code of the Russian Federation.
