Foreign experience of management of environmental protection

 

Abstract

 

In article positive experience of use of economic methods of management of rational environmental management in foreign countries in which appreciable success in this area is achieved is surveyed. Payments, taxes, subsidies, preferences, economy of natural resources and many other things belong to these methods of management. 

 

Keywords: environmental management, environmental protection, payments, reduced rates, taxes.

 

The Republic of Kazakhstan – the country having unique natural potential. The main purpose of economy of our country is rising of efficiency of use of natural resources and reduction of negative impact on environment. However the state policy of Kazakhstan concerning natural resources and environmental protection undergoes essential changes in structure of governing bodies of natural resources today. For creation of an optimum control system and administrative and legal adjustment of environmental management and environmental protection it is necessary to analyse the modern Kazakhstan and foreign theory and practice for studying of all of the best that is saved up in the world.

Payments for pollution, penalties for disturbance of nature protection laws, norms and rules, straight lines and indirect subsidies belong to the economic methods referred on environment protection to the private companies, a subvention to regional and local authorities, the credits under low interest, reduced rates to the companies on cleaning of drains on local treatment facilities, etc. [1].

The most widespread and significant type of economic incentives – payments for pollution. The system of these payments gained distribution in France, Japan, the Netherlands, Great Britain of Germany, etc.

In our country the order of definition of a payment and its limit sizes for pollution of surrounding environment, placement of a wastage, other types of harmful effects works. This order extends on the enterprises, institutions, the organizations, the foreign legal entities and individuals who are carrying out the any kinds of activity in the territory of RK bound to environmental management and provides collection of a payment for the following types of harmful effects on surrounding environment: emission in the atmosphere of contaminants from stationary and mobile sources; dumping of contaminants in superficial and underground water objects; placement of a wastage; other types of harmful effects (hum, vibration, electromagnetic and radiative effects, etc.).

Two types of basic standards of a payment are provided:

a) for emissions, dumpings of contaminants, placement of a wastage, other types of harmful effects within admissible standards;

b) for emissions, dumpings of contaminants, placement of a wastage, other types of harmful effects within the set limits [2].

In a number of the countries the special tax on fee according to the collecting of a household wastage is imposed, practice of mortgage payments extends (on glassware, autooils, batteries, etc.). At a water intake from superficial water objects the whole system of the approaches bound to regional use of these sources of drinking, economic and household water supply works. In the countries with limited water resources (it, first of all the countries of South Africa, northern China, India, Mexico, North America, Canada) various systems of collectings – or uniform system for all state, or the differentiated system according to needs of regions and municipalities are entered.

In some countries higher collecting at an intake of superfine water from underground sources or municipal water supply systems is raised, for example, in Israel where there are serious problems of shortage of drinking water. Very widespread type of economic incentives are also penalties for disturbance of the nature protection legislation. The size of penalties depends on extent of pollution in comparison with the established standards. Tax measures are one of the most effective and effective ways of depression of negative impact on environment. The system of return of pledges on separate types of goods is also the effective remedy providing their repeated use [1].

In Austria the industrial enterprises on exercise of actions on sewage disposals and to protection of water objects, air medium, processing and recycling of a wastage are given help in a form of loans under rather small percent making 6% for the period in 10-15 years. Such interest rate represents the highest level of subsidizing of cost of the credit by the government. The financial discount is provided to owners of the cars using the low-polluting gasoline or at their transfer to such fuel. It promotes development of new environmentally friendly technologies. The leader in this area is Japan.

In Canada for the last 15-20 years there was a shift from use of tax system to broader approach referred on change of perception of problems of environment at establishment of responsibility of persons, whose actions can lead to adverse effects for environment. Financial incentives include providing financial aid and loans on construction and the maintenance of municipal sewer systems and constructions.

In Finland besides tax privileges, the economic measures which aren't bound to financial assistance such as collectings for dumping of sewage in municipal systems of water disposal, elimination of a wastage, carrying out actions for protection of waters, on fight against oil spills, and also special taxes with which drinks in container of one-time use are assessed are applied. Thus authorities of various levels have larger rights on granting various privileges and discounts in the taxation at acquisition of the nature protection equipment. It is necessary to notice that Finland is the purest country of the world, there you won't see garbage tanks of which the garbage falls out, parents since the childhood teach the children to throw out garbage in different containers. One of the moments of ecological education is thrift education. The economy of the electric power, water, paper, clothes is present everywhere at this country, and thrift – line of a way of life of Finns. And collectings for utilization are included in thing cost.

In Germany realization of nature protection policy is followed by acceptance of a number of economic and financial measures of tax incentives, programs of preferential crediting, subsidies for capital investments. In particular, the law on collection of collectings for dumping of sewage provides use of the economic tools supplementing measures of administrative character. It comprises economic incentives for taking measures to reduction of volume of the dumped sewage and rising of extent of their cleaning, and also for development and deployment of progressive, small and waste-free technologies. In the framework of the person established by this law, responsible for a sewage disposal, have opportunity to choose the most effective economically options, beginning from payment of penalties before acceptance of preventive measures. Regarding protection of atmospheric air there is "a provision on compensation" which covers all existing sources of emissions of contaminants, and provides to the companies a larger freedom of choice concerning methods and agents of keeping of the established standards of purity of air. The companies located in one district are compelled to provide in total keeping of demands concerning quality of air in this district. For this purpose they can combine the efforts on depression of level of emissions to the established norms [3].

In the Netherlands the uniform system of a tax on fuel, namely collectings for "air pollutions" and "traffic hum" based on the analysis of alternative options of realization of these actions is installed. Enterings from taxes on fuel cover all expenses on sanitary and hygienic actions (except neutralization of the soil), acceptance of preventive measures, compensation to the companies, a subsidy for development of pure technologies and the organization of grounds for burial of a chemical wastage. Due to these enterings also management expenses of subordinated establishments are covered, and expenses on neutralization of the soil are completely refunded by their general fund, the system of collection of collectings for purification of city sewage works. Local authorities bear responsibility for establishment of the collectings differing from each other in the different cities. Total amount of collectings shouldn't exceed expenses of the city authorities on cleaning natural and sewage. Enterings are referred on repayment of expenses, on construction and operation of systems of cleaning natural and sewage, and they can't be used in other purposes. As a rule, these collectings are too insignificant completely to cover investment expenses on construction of treatment facilities therefore for rendering assistance to their construction the system of immediate delivery of subsidies and loans under low interests was framed.

In Sweden the main attention is paid to administrative control though in recent years the growing interest in economic methods becomes perceptible. The core of the monitoring system includes the general statutes which make a basis of delivery of permissions and control of different types of the polluting activity and other types of interaction on environment [4].

It is necessary to pay attention that, for example, deforestation in one country leads to reduction of natural oofs of all planet, emissions of chemicals on one continent can cause a carcinoma cutaneum in the people living in other parts of the world, entering in the atmosphere of a carbon dioxide in one place accelerates climate change of Earth in general. Oceanic and atmospheric transfer of contaminants knows no limit. In Japan and Great Britain for narrowing of environmental risks the tax method stimulating the enterprises to introduce resource-saving technologies and to reduce technogenic loads on environment is widely applied.

In Kazakhstan a lot of work on environmental protection is carried out, the relevant normative legal acts in the field of rational environmental management are adopted, environmentally friendly technologies are used, the Concept of development of "green" economy is developed, in the cities environmentally friendly vehicles are used. Positive experience of the developed countries in the field of rational environmental management which will allow to control more effectively an ecological situation in any country deserves attention.
