Prospects of development of legal regulation of permanent (indefinite) use of forest plot

The forestry legislation of Russia needs constant improvement in terms of the legal regulation of permanent (indefinite) use of a forest plot (LRPUFP). However, the topic is practically unexplored by modern legal science. In the development of the the ideas of sustainable progress, the new law of LRPUFP being in the state or municipal property was introduced. The purpose of the paper is to define the legal framework of LRPUFP. The study supports the right of legal persons to use permanently (indefinitely) forest plots. Data obtaining methods are modern scientific and special legal methods of cognition, in particular, analysis, synthesis, systemic, functional, technical legal method, which consists in defining legal concepts, identifying their characteristics, sociological analysis of documents, studies on forest law and others. The novelty of the research is that the author subjected many issues to thorough scientific analysis and investigated them in great detail for the first time. Current Russian legislation is not absolutely systematized in this field, but regulatory enforcement is not spread very much. In present-day conditions wit Russian legislation there is no need in LRPUFP, and it would be more optimal to abolish the rules concerning it from the forestry legislation. It is necessary to re-register the existed regulation into agreement on the lease of a forest plot or purchase and sale agreement of forest plantations. Further in transition to the lease basis it is necessary to provide some benefits on payment for the legal persons who have the LRPUFP or even grant them a remission of taxation.
