The National Report on theState of the Environment in the RussianFederation in 2000 contains information ongeneration of industrial toxic waste, which isclassified by hazards rather than sources, butlacks data on generation of production andconsumption waste (over a five-year periodfrom 1996 to 2000), while the National Reportfor 2004 lacks the former information butshows the latter (for a three-year period from2002 to 2004).Environmental impact of the fuelsector (oil, gas and coal industries) comparedwith some branches of industry and thenational economy (other major contributors towater pollution and solid waste) is presentedby Table 7.3.Further trends in wastewater discharge(2005–2006) for fuel sector industries arepresented in Table 7.4, but in a different groupcompared with Table 7.3, which, naturally,makes it impossible to make a directcomparison. However, these data indicate thatwhile the trend in the overall economy wastowards slow decline of wastewater discharge4Russia National Environmental Report, 2004, M., ANO The Center for International Projects, 2005, 493 p.5The data for 2005 is not included in the National reports (and in industrial reports as well).6Russia National Environmental Report, 2006, M., ANO The Center for International Projects, 2008, 504 p.125
