The paper presents analysis of Industrial Development Strategy for processing, recycling and disposal of production and consumption waste for the period up to 2030 and the National project “Ecology”. The paper reveals main shortcomings of institutional mechanisms of Russian environmental legislation. Overcoming these obstacles is necessary for successful implementation of goals and tasks, which are set out to these policy documents.
