Abstract

This Resolution SEMA, consisting of 25 articles divided into three Chapters and three Annexes, establishes requirements, definitions, criteria, guidelines and administrative procedures related to the Environmental Licensing and Environmental Regularization of public harbours and public/private terminals, to be complied within the territory of the State of Paraná. The Environmental license will be issued by the IAP establishing conditions, restrictions and environmental control measures that entrepreneur, individual or legal entity must comply with, to locate, install, expand and operate enterprises or activities that use environmental resources considered as effective or potentially pollutants or those which, in any form, can cause environmental degradation. This Resolution applies to public inland and marine harbours, to terminals for public or private use (whose cargo volume is less than or equal to 15,000,000 tonnes/year or 450,000 TEU/year) as well as to Port Facilities, including passenger terminals. This Resolution does not apply to inland waterway activities, such as crossings of vehicles and passengers by ferries or other vessels. The licensing body, in the exercise of its environmental control competency, will issue specific Environmental Authorizations according to the different activity performed.
