In order to develop separate accumulation and collection of waste on the territory of all subjects of the Russian Federation, the Government of the Russian Federation approved an action Plan ("roadmap") for the introduction of separate accumulation (SAW) and collection of solid municipal waste (MSW) No. 4586p-P11 dated June 1, 2020.
Currently, the authorized executive authorities of the Russian Federation are conducting a comprehensive step-by-step work on the formation of the SAW system on the territory of the subjects of the Russian Federation.

As part of this work, a survey "The attitude of residents to the separate accumulation and collection of solid municipal waste on the territory of the Russian Federation" is posted on the official website of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment. You can take the survey by following the link. The results of the survey of residents will be used in the formation of a system of separate accumulation and collection of MSW waste.

The official letter of the Ministry of Natural Resources on information support in conducting the survey can be found here.
