ÁREA DE PRESERVAÇÃO PERMANENTE EM MEIO URBANO: Desafios e pautas para a gestão socioambiental em Rio Verde – GO

Abstract

This research aimed to analyze the uses and appropriations of Permanent Preservation Areas (PPAs) located in the urban area of Rio Verde and provide subsidies to think about the challenges and guidelines for environmental management in Rio Verde, for both were analyzed the Barry, Toad, Chapadinha and Veredinha streams, the normative instruments related to the uses of these PPAs. In this sense, urbanization processes were discussed, guidelines and instruments of public administration, principles of environmental legislation and sustainable uses for streams, rivers and springs in urban areas. The methodology used to achieve the goals was literature review, site visits and interviews with civil servants in the management of PPAs in the city. In this way it was possible to identify, perception and satisfaction with the theme researched and which PPAs have been prioritized to receive investments and infrastructure within the city limits. As a result we identified the need to rethink the way it is being conducted managing the PPAs in urban areas, often while the financial resources and efforts are being applied in the central areas, through the implementation of side roads and channeling of streams , peripheral areas will again be occupied in a disorganized way, with this process a vicious cycle of urban APPs occupation and consequently the degradation of water sources.
