📋 Tender Overview
The implementation of the new, the countrys main environmental protection instrument, will be permanently monitored by representatives of the Union, states and municipalities that are part of the National Tripartite Commission. The referral was defined last Tuesday (2/9), during a meeting of the Board at the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change (MMA).
The objective is to contribute to the improvement of the standard and the process of regulating the devices that require legal discipline for application in practice.
The establishment of general guidelines to guide the performance of the entities, aligned with local skills, was highlighted by MMA Assistant Executive Secretary Anna Flavia de Senna Franco. The lack of minimal standardization, he pointed out, interferes with everything, including time, deadline, and is one of the problems we have to face.
Tripartites articulation capacity to collaborate with the construction of an even more efficient licensing policy was emphasized by Ibama President Rodrigo Agostinho. We need to understand very objectively what has worked out and what has not worked. This is a look that we need to have.
The commission measure adds to efforts that have been made by the federal government to ensure the integrity of the licensing process, ensure the rights of indigenous peoples and quilombola communities, giving legal certainty to enterprises and investors, and incorporating innovations that make licensing more agile without compromising quality. .
The working group should be instituted soon. The composition will cover members of MMA, the Brazilian Institute of Environment and Renewable Natural Resources (Ibama), the Brazilian Association of State Environmental Entities (Abema) and the National Association of Municipalities and Environment (Anamma).
In operation for 24 years, Tripartite coordinates environmental management in a shared and decentralized manner among the three federation entities, to strengthen the National Environment System (Sisnama).
Last July, Tripartite released a warning position for the risks of the then Bill 2.159/2021. In the document, the Commission recognized the importance of a regulatory framework that is responsible for normative clarity, legal certainty and agility in processes, without giving up the effectiveness of environmental protection and federative cooperation.
Among the considerations, the Commission representatives highlighted the absence of forecasting minimum national guidelines for environmental licensing, as it could lead to the isolated definition of procedures by federative entities and compromise the operation of sisnama, they stressed at the time.
Other points
Also at the meeting, the general audit coordinator of the Minas and Energy areas of the Federal Secretariat of Internal Control of CGU, Gustavo Chaves, presented an evaluation report on the performance of the National Mining Agency (ANM) related to environmental management. The document presented recommendations to increase the transparency of environmental licensing information in the area
The meeting was also marked by the explanation of the future Portal of the National Environmental Information System (Sinima), an instrument of the National Environmental Policy (PNMA) that integrates information between several systems that make up Sisnama.
There was also the presentation of the Solid Waste Working Group, which built a resolution proposal that regulates supervision procedures and promotion of integrated management and management of solid waste. The document will be considered this month by environmental secretaries that are part of Tripartite. Once approved, the draft should be sent to evaluate the National Environment Council (CONAMA).
