DIFERENÇAS NOS PROCESSOS DE LICENCIAMENTO AMBIENTAL PARA SUINOCULTURA EM MUNICÍCIPIOS DESCENTRALIZADOS E NÃO DESCENTRALIZADOS EM GOIÁS

Abstract

This study aims to understand the differences between environmental licensing processes for pig farming in decentralized and non-decentralized municipalities and how these particularities impact the activity. To achieve this, a case study was conducted in a decentralized municipality, and simultaneously, a simulation of the process on the state platform for a non-decentralized municipality was carried out. During the analysis, important distinctions were observed, such as document requirements, protocol flows, and the tools used for process requests and evaluations. While decentralized municipalities tend to adopt stricter criteria, resulting in longer licensing times, the state platform offers a faster process, though it relies on frequent updates to ensure accuracy and prevent failures. Despite these differences, both procedures share the same goal: to ensure that the activity complies with current environmental legislation, promoting sustainability and environmental awareness.
