We have introduced a system of state regulation in the field of environmental protection, working on the basis of the best available techniques. This system establishes environmental requirements for industrial enterprises, which are based on complex indicators. Owing to the approaches developed by the OECD in assessing the state’s environmental policy, we have concluded that one of the main criteria for the success of state regulation in the field of environmental protection is its consistency with industrial policy implemented in the state. To maintain sustainable development, it is necessary to establish an optimal balance between the demands of ecologists and the needs of industry. The indicators discussed in this article help determine the strengths and weaknesses of the current regulation and set the right vector for the development of the state policy in the field of environmental protection.
