Consórcios intermunicipais para gestão de resíduos sólidos urbanos: uma análise da implantação na Região Norte de Goiás – Cidernorte

Abstract

Considering this situation, in face of this problem about the wastes and yet on the municipalities don‟t perform a service in accordance with the legal bases, the sanitation specialists believe the solution is the integrated solid waste management, this is consensus between them. The integrated solid waste management is in synthesis, the product of the involvement of different organs of public administration and civil society, with the purpose of carrying out the urban public cleaning, the collection, the treatment and the final disposal of the garbage, thus, improving people's quality of life. The main objective of this research is to analyze the implementation process of the Intermunicipal Development Consortium of the Northern Region of Goiás (CIDERNORTE). This group is formed by Porangatu, Novo Planalto and Mutunópolis cities. This research contributes to identify relevant aspects that difficult the implementation of the consortium (CIDERNORTE), between them, the contract signed with Renewable Technology Company; it was contractor for the management and treatment of solid wastes. Moreover, it wasn‟t made a study of the economic feasibility for installation of the industry, leading to financial losses. Thus, the landfill proved to be more adequate to attend the municipalities. The data presented in the case study demonstrated the economic feasibility of adopting the model for the final destination of solid waste for small municipalities, mainly in installation and operation costs. It is expected that, with the implementation of the landfill, a new model of urban solid waste management will be implemented in the consortium (CIDERNORTE).
