Abstract

Three Northern European countries over the last century have had similar political experiences, in 1990–1991 they have re-established independence and developed an individual political and administrative system. From 2004, when all Baltic countries became members of the European Union, the land use and spatial planning systems were developed with many similarities, as well as differences. The topic of this study is a survey of the national land policies and spatial planning systems in Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia in the context of sustainable development, needs of society and depopulation. The aim of the article is to examine the problems, needs of society and tendencies in land usage, as well as systemic features of spatial planning in the Baltic countries. It is very important to analyse how countries realize the implementation of sustainable development strategies in land use planning and in the context of depopulation. It was found that the Baltic countries are facing similar problems in land use and spatial planning documents but there are also differences regarding planning procedures of documents, their hierarchy and types of planned measures. The study has shown that people in these countries want more natural environment and eco-industrial development. Also, it was approved as necessary to create an index (engineering method) of sustainability in spatial planning.

Abstract

The purpose of this work is to justify the need to develop a set of solutions for the organization of the step-by-step planning of rational use of disturbed lands. Currently, environmental problems have worsened due to the closure of mining enterprises, which has led to an urgent need for a scientific approach to the environmental remediation of mining regions and their future rational use and evaluation. The implementation of such approaches can be largely achieved through the creation of improved natural and anthropogenic landscapes on disturbed lands. As a result of the research, the procedure and sequence for the development of rational use of technologically disturbed lands have been formed. This procedure and stages of work performance will provide an opportunity for their reuse, as well as systematize the activities of local government bodies. The criteria for choosing the direction of the technogenic landscape transformation in Ukraine, which are based on the prevention of undesirable, uncontrollable processes of natural and technogenic origin have been formed. The process of the technogenic landscape transformation should be based on the use of potential opportunities and trends inherent in nature itself. The studies on the rational use of disturbed lands in order to adapt them to reuse and prospective use has shown that lands formed as a result of mining can be used for both recreation and industrial development. Complex schemes of sequential actions in the organization of works on the rational use of lands have been develope.
