Ao longo dos últimos séculos os resíduos eram correlacionados com a imprestabilidade, não merecendo uma atenção maior em relação à sua gestão e planejamento. Com o surgimento de novas tecnologias, principalmente motivadas pelo processo desencadeado pela Revolução Industrial, novas formas de compostos passaram a ser sintetizados, o que alterou a composição dos resíduos gerados nas diversas atividades humanas. A somatória entre produção de novas tecnologias, intensificação do processo de industrialização e adensamento populacional, implicaria na geração de vários acidentes ambientais, principalmente após o início do século XX, que foram os grandes motivadores para que a questão ambiental passasse a ser discutida no âmbito internacional. A partir de então, foram produzidos vários tratados e acordos internacionais, assimilados na ordem jurídica nacional. Dentre estes compromissos, o Brasil veicularia em 2010 uma Política Nacional de Resíduos Sódios, estabelecendo compromissos para que todos os entes federados elaborassem seus respectivos planos de resíduos em dois anos e implementassem a destinação ambientalmente adequada em quatro anos. Diante da obrigação legal, voltada principalmente para a eliminação dos “lixões”, os municípios passaram a fortalecer os seus vínculos intermunicipais, passando a atuar na forma de consórcios, seja para fins de destinação final de resíduos ou mesmo para elaborar seus planos de gestão integrada. A ação consorciada, promovida pelos municípios de Fernandes Pinheiro, Guamiranga, Inácio Martins, Rebouças, Rio Azul e Teixeira Soares, entre 2015 e 2016, para realização de seus planos de saneamento básico e gestão integrada de resíduos sólidos é objeto desta dissertação, na forma de estudo de caso, mediante a realização de pesquisas documental, bibliográfica e de campo, esta voltada para a coleta de dados nos municípios receptores de resíduos, adotando-se o método de análise qualitativo. A proposta principal desta dissertação é evidenciar como a gestão e o planejamento são realizados no âmbito de pequenos municípios, em torno dos serviços de remoção, coleta, transporte e destinação final dos resíduos sólidos que são produzidos pelos munícipes em seus domicílios, destacando-se como um dos principais achados a gestão privada de interesses públicos em relação à destinação final, que era feita em aterros sanitários privados. / This dissertation deals with an important component of the environmental issue: solid waste. Over the last few centuries waste was correlated with impresatability, not deserving greater attention in relation to it’s management and planning. With the emergence of new technologies, mainly motivated by the process triggered by the Industrial Revolution, new forms of compounds began to be synthesized, which altered the composition of the residues generated in the various human activities. The sum of the production of new technologies, the intensification of the industrialization process and the population density, would lead to the generation of several environmental accidents, especially after the beginning of the 20th century, which were the great motivators for the environmental issue to be discussed at the international level. Since then, several international treaties and agreements have been produced, assimilated in the national legal order. Among these commitments, in 2010, Brazil would issue a National Solid Waste Policy, establishing commitments for all federal entities to prepare their respective waste plans in two years and to implement the environmentally adequate destination in four years. Faced with the legal obligation, focused mainly on the elimination of "landfills", municipalities began to strengthen their inter-municipal bonds, starting to act as consortia, either for the purpose of final disposal of waste or even to elaborate their integrated management plans . The consortium action, promoted by the municipalities of Fernandes Pinheiro, Guamiranga, Inácio Martins, Rebouças, Rio Azul and Teixeira Soares, between 2015 and 2016, in order to carry out their basic sanitation and integrated solid waste management plans is the subject of this dissertation, in the form of case study, through the accomplishment of documentary, bibliographical and field research, this one is directed to the data collection in the municipalities receiving residues, adopting the method of qualitative analysis. The main purpose of this dissertation is to show how management and planning are carried out within small municipalities, regarding the services of removal, collection, transport and final disposal of solid waste that are produced by the residents in their homes, one of the main findings of private management of public interests in relation to the final destination, which was made in private landfills.

A avaliação ambiental estratégica e o planejamento de uso e ocupação do solo: o caso do litoral norte do Estado de São Paulo / The strategic environmental assessment and planning and land use: the case of the north coast of São Paulo

Fabbro Neto, Francisco 26 June 2013 (has links)
O setor público de planejamento de uso e ocupação do solo dispõe de instrumentos para regular o desenvolvimento, como o Plano de Bacia Hidrográfica - PBH, que atua em âmbito regional e os Planos Diretores Municipais - PD, em âmbito municipal, os quais possuem sobreposição de interesses e áreas de gerenciamento. Contudo, o Estado de São Paulo ainda encontra dificuldades em estabelecer conexões entre PBHs e PDs. Apesar de serem peças importantes para o disciplinamento do uso e ocupação do solo, não apresentam interação, ocasionando um descompasso e desarticulação de agentes institucionais com poderes de decisão na área ambiental e, consequentemente, na implementação das decisões tomadas. Assim, a presente tese investiga a possibilidade de integração do Plano Diretor Municipal com o Plano de Bacia Hidrográfica, pertencentes à mesma Unidade de Gerenciamento de Recursos Hídricos a partir da aplicação da Avaliação Ambiental Estratégica. A metodologia do trabalho parte das experiências internacionais de planejamento territorial por planos diretores municipais ou regionais e de aplicação de AAE neste campo do conhecimento, tendo como referência o sistema adotado na Escócia. O arcabouço concebido foi aplicado para desenvolver diretrizes para ser utilizado na Bacia Hidrográfica do Litoral Norte do Estado de São Paulo. Na análise foram contempladas as etapas de elaboração dos distintos instrumentos, os dados utilizados, os momentos de interlocução entre os setores responsáveis e partes interessadas, os mecanismos de verificação de implementação e monitoramento, e os direcionamentos finais dados por todos os instrumentos. Foram identificadas as compatibilidades e incongruências caracterizadas pela aplicação dos instrumentos de planejamento, tendo como resultados positivos do caso escocês o estabelecimento de autoridades consultivas, a aprovação do processo por órgãos externos, e as diretrizes do plano local vinculadas ao planejamento regional, sinalizando para possíveis melhorias dos procedimentos adotados no Litoral Norte do Estado de São Paulo. / The land use planning has different tools to guide the spatial development, as River Basin Management Plan in the regional scale and Local Development Plan in the municipal scale, which overlaps in area and issues of management. However, the São Paulo State has troubles to connect them. Both River Basin Management Plan and Local Development Plan are important to regulate the land use, but they are not integrated accurately by public government with consequences in the planning implementation. This thesis looks for Strategic Environmental Assessment\'s efficiency applied to connect the Local Development Plan with River Basin Management Plan in the same management area. The methodology analyses the international experience in spatial planning by the Strategic Environmental Assessment expertise, and puts the Scottish Management as reference to North Coast of São Paulo State. The analysis contemplates planning procedures, baselines, public participation, monitoring, implementation strategies and planning results. There are compatibilities and divergences of both planning tools and among the positive results of Scottish planning are the adoptions of consult authorities during the planning elaboration, the planning processs external approbation, and the local planning decisions linked by regional planning results. The Scottish expertise could be useful to improve the planning practice in the North Coast of the São Paulo.

Gerenciamento de resíduos no Laboratório Farmacêutico do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul (LAFERGS) como contribuição para a otimização da produção de medicamentos / Management of waste at the pharmaceutical laboratory of the state of Rio Grande do Sul (LAFERGS) as a way of contributing for the optimization of drug production

Azevedo, Sandra Maria Zulian de January 2008 (has links)
O gerenciamento adequado de resíduos na indústria farmacêutica demonstra preocupação com a questão ambiental, a saúde pública e o combate ao desperdício. O objetivo desta dissertação foi contribuir para a otimização da produção de medicamentos no LAFERGS, mediante o gerenciamento de resíduos e, desta forma, colaborar para a melhoria da qualidade ambiental e da vida da população. A metodologia deste trabalho baseou-se na pesquisa bibliográfica para o embasamento teórico, na pesquisa documental em legislações relacionadas ao tema, em estudo de caso realizado no LAFERGS, no período de setembro de 2003 a agosto de 2004, para identificar os resíduos gerados e na elaboração do Plano de Gerenciamento de Resíduos (PGR). No estudo de caso foram caracterizados os resíduos químicos e recicláveis das atividades dos setores de produção e controle de qualidade de medicamentos, bem como os resíduos comuns recicláveis e não recicláveis gerados nas demais áreas do laboratório. O estudo forneceu dados para a elaboração do PGR e para melhorias no processo produtivo. Conclui-se que os resíduos químicos gerados na produção, no controle de qualidade e nos almoxarifados, são enquadrados no grupo B. Classificados como D estão os resíduos comuns, recicláveis e não recicláveis, resultantes das atividades industriais, administrativas, de refeitório, de sanitários e de jardinagem. Materiais perfurocortantes, como vidraria de laboratório quebrada, lâminas e lamínulas, classificam-se no grupo E. Não existe geração de resíduos do grupo C, que são os radioativos. Como contribuição para a otimização da produção indica-se a modernização tecnológica do laboratório, a efetiva implantação de um sistema de garantia da qualidade e a busca de maior agilidade e autonomia administrativo-financeira e a implantação do PGR com a adoção de técnicas de produção mais limpa e minimização da geração de resíduos. / The suitable management of waste in the pharmaceutical industry shows the concern for issues related to the environment, public health and the fight against waste. The purpose of this dissertation was to contribute for the optimization of drug production at LAFERGS (Pharmaceutical Laboratory of Rio Grande do Sul), through the management of waste and, in this way, to work together for the improvement in the quality of the environment, as well as the life of the population. The methodology is based on bibliographic research for theoretical grounding, in document research on legislation related to the theme, on a case study performed at LAFERGS, from September 2003 to August 2004, to identify the waste generated, and in the development of the Waste Management Plan (WMP). In the case study the chemical and recyclable waste from the drug production and quality control sector activities were characterized, as well as the common recyclable and non-recyclable waste generated in other areas of the laboratory. The study supplied data for the development of the WMP and for improvement in the productive process. It was concluded that the chemical waste generated in production, quality control and in the warehouses, fit within Group B. Common, recyclable and non-recyclable waste resulting from industrial and administrative activities, as well as from the cafeteria, restrooms and garden are classified as Group D. Cutting materials, such as broken laboratory glassware, blades and micro slides are classified in Group E. There is no management process for waste in Group C, made up of radioactive materials. Technological modernization of the laboratory, the effective implementation of a quality assurance system and the search for greater flexibility and administrative-financial autonomy, along with the implementation of the WMP, with the adoption of cleaner production techniques, and a reduction in the generation of waste, are all indicated as forms of optimizing production.

Object-Based Segmentation and Classification of One Meter Imagery for Use in Forest Management Plans

Wells, W. Kevin 01 May 2010 (has links)
This research developed an ArcGIS Python model that extracts polygons from aerial imagery and assigns each polygon a vegetation type based on a modified set of landcover classes from the Southwest Regional Gap Analysis Project. The model showed an ability to generate polygons that accurately represent vegetation community boundaries across a large landscape. The model is for use by the Utah Division of Forestry, Fire, and State Lands to assist in the preparation of forest management plans. The model was judged useful because it was easy to use, it met a designated 50% threshold of useable polygons, and it met a designated 50% threshold of vegetation class assignment accuracy.

Management of Geohazards at Lihir Gold Mine-Papua New Guinea

Singh, Mohan 11 1900 (has links)
Lihir Gold Mine in Papua New Guinea is one of the largest gold mines in the world situated in a seismically sensitive zone. The gold deposit is located in an extinct volcano in close proximity to the sea shore and presents a series of geohazards. Some geohazards are uncommon and include: geothermal outbursts, cavities, water inrush and earthquake/ tsunami. After a major multi-batter (5 benches high) slope failure that occurred on the 1st of October 2009, a team of engineers, lead by the author investigated the incident and made series of recommendations. Arising out of these recommendations, a comprehensive Geohazard Management Plan was formulated by revisiting, revising and putting together all the individual geohazard management plans as a single document. This thesis describes the outcomes of the investigation and presents an overview and systematic approach in formulation of the Geohazard Management Plan, apart from a summary of the gaps that were identified in the existing system, major contributions that were made as well as the expected improvements and constraints in managing these geohazards. / Mining Engineering

Evaluating Florida's Coastal Protected Areas: A Model for Coastal Management Plan Evaluation

Bernhardt, Sarah Praeger 2010 December 1900 (has links)
This research presents the first coastal and marine protected areas specific quantitative management plan evaluation protocol. This critical research gap in the coastal and marine protected area (CMPA) research literature was addressed by creating a protocol for evaluating CMPA plan quality utilizing a combination of marine protected area (MPA) and land use planning techniques for the first time, then applying it to a sample of CMPAs providing both descriptive results of CMPA plan quality and analysis of factors that might influence plan quality. A sample of CMPAs (n=40) under the jurisdiction of Florida‟s Coastal and Aquatic Managed Areas (CAMA) was evaluated for plan quality using 96 indicators scored as 0, 1, or 2 and then divided into five plan components: factual basis, goals and objectives, policies, tools and strategies, inter-governmental coordination and cooperation, and implementation and monitoring. Total CMPA plan quality averaged 29.40 out of a possible 50.00. CMPA plan quality ranged from 20.00 to 47.00 with a standard deviation of 7.07. Regression analysis examined the effects of CMPA context, participation, environmental threats and socioeconomic factors on CMPA plan quality. The age of CMPA plans was found to be a significant indicator of CMPA plan quality. Other significant indicators of plan quality included threatened biodiversity, participation, and percent of adjacent developed or agricultural land.

Impacts Of Planning Decisions In An Earthquake Vulnerable City: The Case Of Adapazari

Bayhan, Fikret 01 June 2010 (has links) (PDF)
Much emphasis has been given to the damages and loss experienced in the 1999 earthquakes with little research however on the social and administrative causes, and in particular on the consequences of malpractice of planning previous to the natural hazard. Reviewing the case of Adapazari, the three succesive periods of plan making and implementation are critically investigated here to establish the extent that planning decisions of the local authorities and their modes of enforcement have generated adverse results causing the loss of many Lifes. The analysis required the combination of data sources on plan decisions and the consequences of the disaster, accommodated in the different authorities. Surveying the scope and decisions of 1957-70, 1970-85, and 1985-99 plan periods, and comparing these decisions in their spatial context with the loss and damage experienced, provides sufficent evidence of the causality. It is possible to identify that decisions of increased densities and building higher, changes to commercial uses in the CBD, siting of individual buildings, removal of open spaces all had their share in contributing the dramatic panaroma of losses. v Findings indicate strong correlations of loss of life with increased number of floors in buildings in the 27 districts of Adapazari. It is particularly evident that greatest damages occured due to the 1985 plan decisions, when all powers of comprehensive plan-making were transferred to the local authorities, central authority control powers being removed. So long as local interests can not be curbed in plan preparation avoiding control with reference to the criteria of &lsquo / public benefit&rsquo / , many other cities in Turkey are likely to have similar fate in the near future.

Draft forest management plan for Cashmere Forest, Port Hills, Canterbury.

Mansell, Jeremy David January 2007 (has links)
Cashmere Forest is currently a production forest comprised of mostly radiata pine (c.85%), Douglas fir (c.5%) and some non plantation areas. The Port Hills Park Trust Board (PHPTB) is interested in purchasing Cashmere Forest for the purpose of creating a public forest park environment where forestry, indigenous biodiversity, recreation and the environment are goals of sustainable management. For this purpose this draft forest management (DFM) plan has been prepared. The preparation of the Cashmere DFM plan comprised three main components: 1. An economic analysis of the current plantation component of Cashmere Forest. 2. Preparation of a draft forest management plan which encompasses the management of plantation and non plantation areas. 3. Preparation of a geographic information system (GIS) for Cashmere Forest. Economic analysis evaluated clearfell, coupe (2 to 5 ha), and a mixture of coupe and continuous canopy management (CCM) as harvesting scenarios. The coupe CCM mix was recommended for implementation primarily as it best suited long term management goals for Cashmere Forest Park while also returning modest value (NPV $561, 966). Normal cashflow analysis was also used to analyse cashflow over the first thirty years of operation from 2007. Under coupe/CCM, accrued profit does not become permanently positive until around 2019 due to initial infrastructure costs. Accrued revenue culminates at around 4 million after 30 years. This figure may drop following implementation of high pruning, alternative growth models and indigenous restoration. The Cashmere DFM plan begins with the 200 year vision which sees a Forest Park ecosystem that achieves production, environmental, ecological and recreational goals appropriate to its Port Hills location. Production forestry is practiced through the selective harvesting of a range of naturally regenerated exotic and restored indigenous species. Landscape, soil and water resources are sustainably managed through the retention of a mixed forest canopy. The forest park has been significantly augmented with indigenous flora and fauna typical of the Port Hills and ecologically significant areas are managed specifically for their indigenous biodiversity. Park recreational users are enjoying ongoing utilisation of a unique Canterbury landscape. Plantation forest management involves coupes of between 2 to 5 ha which will be harvested with cable or ground based systems with areas split approximately 50:50 between the two. Cable harvesting will be carried out with a swing yarder system with ground based operations carried out with track skidders. CCM will be carried out on a trial basis in three compartments. Re-establishment of plantation areas will aim towards occupying around 58% of Cashmere Forest, comprised of areas of radiate pine 65%, radiata pine/eucalypt 24%, Douglas fir/eucalypt 5% and Alternative species 6%. Non plantation areas are identified as either bluff, track or clearing. Within each area there may be one or more vegetation type including tussock grassland, mixed shrubland, rock association and any mixture of the three. It is proposed that the non plantation area will eventually increase to include riparian buffers 31%, restored native 55%, bluff 10% and track 4% areas, reflecting the long term vision of increased native areas in Cashmere Forest. Monitoring of forest operations, restoration, recreation and management progress will be integral to the successful implementation of the Cashmere DFM plan. A database of information will be created to allow periodical reviews of processes and predictions and reconciliation of costs and revenues associated with the management of Cashmere Forest. Periodical reviews will also be undertaken by an independent management advisory group who can liaise with the project manager of Cashmere Forest Park to discuss issues and aid planning and ensure the successful establishment of this unique park resource.
