Desarrollo de proyectos ambientales en el departamento del Meta: experiencia práctica profesional en la agencia para la infraestructura del Meta

Abstract

During the professional practice, activities focused on natural disaster risk prevention were carried out in the department of Meta, identifying 13 critical points affected by the phenomenon of floods and mass movements. In this document, these activities were developed in three of these compromised areas being this porphyria, Chapinero Alto and San Juan de Ocoa. The main objective was to implement environmental management measures that would contribute to the mitigation of these risks. Secondary research was conducted on the general morphological and topographical characteristics of the city of Villavicencio; this information was used as a basis for the identification of environmental impacts, threats and the elaboration of the Conesa matrix. Once the results were obtained, the environmental management plans were prepared to be attached to the PAGA document, for the request of environmental permits by the Cormacarena entity. The execution of the projects began with the signing of the initiation minutes, followed by the continuous monitoring of the activities of the works and the publication of the documents on the SECOP II page, until the liquidation and completion of each project. The results obtained not only included the morphological and topographical identification of the city of Villavicencio, in which a high vulnerability to floods and mass movements was evidenced, which gave way to the elaboration of the Conesa matrix, but also facilitated the analysis of the environmental impacts of the projects, in addition, the main threats such as the risks of torrential floods of the Pendejo stream and the Ocoa river were highlighted. All this allowed for the preparation of environmental management plans to mitigate the negative effects on the environment leading up to the publication of the SECCOP II documentation.
