The agreement will allow the continuity of environmental rehabilitation measures along the affected Doce River Watershed.

With the Renegotiation Agreement, the environmental rehabilitation measures will be completed in the shortest possible time by Samarco.
Among the initiatives, the agreement provides for the continuation of ongoing actions such as the rehabilitation of affected areas, compensatory measures along the Doce River Watershed, the completion of reforestation of 50 thousand hectares and recovery of 5 thousand springs, restoration of banks and the aquatic environment in the locations indicated in the agreement.

In addition to these measures directly implemented by Samarco, the Agreement establishes initiatives to encourage improvements in the environmental quality of the Doce River Watershed, which will be implemented by the Government, in alignment with public policies, such as basic sanitation in the affected municipalities, in addition to other measures that will lead to improvements in the quality of the water in the Doce River.

Feasibility studies will be carried out for the additional removal of up to 9,150,000 m³ of tailings/sediments from the Risoleta Neves Hydropower Plant (HPP Candonga).

Contaminated Area Management – GAC

Samarco will manage affected areas to assess environmental quality and investigate possible affected areas.

Other actions
Some of the environmental activities are subject to environmental authorization or licensing and will be handled directly with environmental agencies, as provided for in the Agreement, such as the partial decommissioning of Dike S4 and the environmental rehabilitation of Bento Antigo.

In addition, the company will present an Integrated Environmental Rehabilitation Plan to the authorities for evaluation, and there will be an environmental monitoring program that will provide aids for public policies. There will also be the creation of indicators to ensure transparency in the fulfillment of established goals for definitive environmental rehabilitation.

We want to hear from you!

We believe that active listening is one of the main ways to integrate people, companies and communities. Your voice is a valuable element so that, together, we can do mining differently.
