The article analyzes corruption risks of the ecological legislation, investigates shortcomings of the ecological legislation that directly affect the completeness and quality of the ecological legal regulation and contribute towards the intensification of corruption manifestations in the sphere of environmental protection. The author notes that the current Russian environmental legislation is characterized by the presence of a significant number of legal uncertainties, reference and blanket rules, norms that establish unreasonably wide margin of appreciation for subjects of law enforcement. The author concludes that not all shortcomings of the ecological legislation are the root causes contributing to corrupt practices.
