Resumo
The growing concern with environmental issues comes mostly from observing the accelerated industrialization process and its difficulty in reconciling economic activity and preserving the environment. One of the most important instruments created to help minimize this conflict is called Environmental Licensing, which aims to monitor activities and projects that use natural resources and that may cause environmental degradation or pollution. In the State of Minas Gerais (MG) the Normative Deliberation (DN) of the Environmental Policy Council (COPAM) 213 of February 22, 2017, was published by the state government. It allows municipalities to carry out the environmental licensing of some projects and economic activities with a local environmental impact. The research aimed to investigate the knowledge related to municipal environmental licensing based on national data and information, scientific articles, master's dissertations, doctoral theses, local and state legislations on municipal environmental licensing, all of which legitimize this environmental management instrument together with the municipalities. Licensing, monitoring, and supervising different types of projects and activities defined in the aforementioned DN requires a lot of responsibility and training of the ones involved. Using a descriptive study, based on combined bibliographic and field research with a qualitative approach of comparative, exploratory, non-experimental nature, the work focused on investigating the practice adopted by the town of Limeira do Oeste - MG, regarding municipalized environmental licensing, aiming to analyze the environmental, social and economic benefits of the municipalization of environmental licensing. There were environmental, social, and economic benefits of the municipalization of environmental licensing in Limeira do Oeste - MG. The environmental benefits being the proximity to the environmental impact factor and inspections, the social benefits being the participation of civil society in the environmental council, and the economic benefits being the increase of collection of fees for licensing processes and environmental interventions.
