CRITERIA FOR IDENTIFICATION OF AREAS FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION OF SANITARY LAND

Abstract

This work aims to identify the restrictive and ponderable criteria for the identification of potential areas for implantation of a sanitary landfill. The method was divided into (1) consultation of laws, technical standards and resolutions; (2) consult the recommendations related to the object of study (landfill); and (3) description of restrictive and ponderable criteria. The first result was a general overview of the main laws, resolutions, norms and ordinances related to the implementation of a sanitary landfill. As a second result, we obtained the criteria of restrictive and ponderable order. There are several ponderable criteria, however, due to the difficulty of finding some data and the generality of some information, one can choose to consider only the ponderable criteria pertinent to the study area. We conclude that this work contributes to the ease of understanding and access to the laws, resolutions, norms and ordinances in force, related to the implantation of a sanitary landfill. However, there is still a need for the development of environmental permits, as required by the environmental agency, in which they require more detailed studies and specific analyzes to define the area for landfill.
