Abstract
The paper examines the issues of developing relevant and adequate methods to address the practical challenges of supporting the justice system with objective scientific evidence. Special emphasis is placed on the problem of ambiguity of the concept of «original» state of the environment prior to the investigated event and the choice of practical approaches to rehabilitation of damaged ecosystems.
