Apoyo técnico en la estrategia respuesta a los requerimientos del componente de evaluación económica ambiental (EEA) presentados por la autoridad nacional de licencias ambientales (ANLA) para el otorgamiento de licencias ambientales de proyectos del sector de infraestructura, hidrocarburos y energético en Colombia.

Abstract

The company Valterra has extensive experience in the processes of environmental economic assessment, environmental assessment and Environmental Management Plans (PMA), processes that are essential to achieve environmental licensing in the different projects associated with the industrial sector, within which stand out Activities associated with Hydrocarbons, Energy and Road Infrastructure. The administrative authority that regulates aspects related to environmental licenses is the National Environmental Licensing Authority (ANLA), a corporation which conducts a study, inspection and check of the environmental licensing process; and from said study generate a series of requirements that must be solved by the company to obtain the Environmental license. In this context, the activities developed in the institution as part of the internship in environmental engineering within the company, were oriented to the planning and execution of activities related to planning, accompaniment and monitoring, as well as towards the follow-up of advances in the requirements referred to by the ANLA. Within these activities, strategies were established to respond to each requirement based on the development of a database, in which, based on a traceability analysis, it was identified that many of the requirements mentioned by the authority contradict projects of the same sector that have similarities of context and execution. For this, 24 projects that presented adjustment or guarantee were studied, allowing the pertinent analysis. It is expected that the design, construction and implementation of the database will allow the creation and appropriate work route for the strategy to respond to the requirements issued, as well as the database and project monitoring matrix to be kept up to date.
