Abstract

Swine farm is an activity that is subject to environmental licensing. The licensing processes have been modified and it is necessary to carry out an evaluation of the impacts of the activity. The objective of this study was to analyze the Environmental Licensing of a rural property, whose main activity is swine farming, in the municipality of Patrocínio-MG, before the Normative Deliberation (ND) of the Minas Gerais State Environmental Policy Council (COPAM) nº 213/2017 and discuss the which is being proposed by the new ND COPAM No. 217/2017, which revoked ND COPAM 74/2004. The experimental activity was composed by bibliographical and documentary research, and case study. The realization of environmental licensing in the municipality of Patrocínio, favored several criteria without compromising the identification of environmental impacts. Through the documentary analysis it can be observed that the multidisciplinary character must be maintained and allows a correct evaluation of the required documents. It is concluded that the current model of environmental licensing, proposed by ND COPAM 217/2017, for the pig farms evaluated, allows the maintenance of the environmental impact criteria regulated by the former ND COPAM 74/2004. The municipalization of the environmental licensing process improved the access of the entrepreneur, simplified the process and equiped the Municipal Secretariat of Environment of Patrocínio-MG without causing any damage to the quality of the service. The suggested conditions for the self-monitoring of activities are responsive to the monitoring of the possible impacts generated, since good management practices and soil and effluent analyzes capable of being correlated were suggested, provided that the calcium, magnesium and sodium concentration in the effluent analysis.
