1.1. Constitutionality of the called legislative provisions is disputed by administration of the municipality "Neryungrinsky District" to which the decision of Neryungrinsky city court of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) of September 12, 2014 left without change appeal determination of judicial board on civil cases of the Supreme Court of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) of November 17, 2014 in the claim of the prosecutor of the city of Neryungri of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) assigned obligation to liquidate unauthorized dump of household waste on the site of the lands of forest fund located in the territory of this municipality (originally the claim was made to administration of this municipal district of the residential location which is part "Settlement of Berkakit").

In case of adoption of these decisions courts recognized that owing to Item 18 of part 1 of Article 14 and Item 14 of part 1 of article 15 of the Federal law "About the General Principles of the Organization of Local Self-government in the Russian Federation" the organization of collection and export of household waste and garbage treats questions of local value of the municipal district, and therefore if the owner of this household waste cannot be established, local government bodies of the respective municipality shall perform liquidation of the unauthorized dump of household waste located in its territory, including on lands of forest fund. The defendant's argument that the obligation on the organization of collection and export of household waste from the parcel of land which is relating to lands of forest fund and being in federal property shall be assigned to state governmental agency of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) "Neryungrinsky forest area" was rejected by courts as based on incorrect interpretation of regulations of the current legislation.
