The Federal Law on Best Available Techniques (BAT) becomes the main instrument regulating pollutant emissions from Russian industrial installations. The Law was adopted in July 2014, following an extensive review of the current environmental legislation. The new Law aims to achieve a high level of environmental protection taken as a whole by reducing harmful industrial emissions through the application of BATs. Minimum 6,500 installations undertaking the industrial activities described as Category I (Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control) are required to operate in accordance with Integrated Environmental Permits (EIPs). Regional and local authorities as well as NGOs and general public will have access to IEP applications and be invited to discuss permit conditions set in accordance with the principles and provisions of the Federal Law and with requirements of the relevant sector BATs. Both environmental managers of Category I installations and officers of environmental authorities in all Russian regions need to be trained in BATs and IEPs. To meet these needs, a module training programme was developed and tested. The programme is flexible and allows modifications: it can be used both for the intensive sector-oriented training and short-term introductory courses addressed to regional stakeholders. In 2017-2018, the full-scale sector-oriented training courses (72 hours) were conducted both in mixed audiences and for the leading metallurgical, petrochemical and energy generating companies, including those who are obliged to obtain their IEPs as early as in 2019-2022; over 250 practitioners were trained. Shorter courses (8-24 hours) were conducted for more than 400 trainees. BAT-related workshops and role games as well as webinars attracted attention of nearly 2,000 participants. The training programme is gradually developed in accordance with the principle of continual improvement. Collaborating with colleagues focusing their attention of other sectors and regions, we have to provide for better understanding and for the preparedness of Russian stakeholders to work under the conditions of the new BATbased environmental regulation system.
