If you're planning a development project in Brasil that requires environmental licensing, you may need to prepare a Diagn贸stico Ambiental Simplificado (DAS). This streamlined environmental assessment document provides a faster path to environmental approval for projects with lower environmental impact, serving as an alternative to the more comprehensive EIA/RIMA process while ensuring compliance with Brasil's environmental protection laws.

When do you need this document?

You need a Diagn贸stico Ambiental Simplificado when your project falls under activities that require environmental licensing but don't warrant a full Environmental Impact Assessment. This typically includes small to medium-scale industrial facilities, commercial developments, infrastructure projects with limited environmental footprint, and activities specifically listed by state environmental agencies as eligible for simplified assessment. The competent environmental agency determines whether your project qualifies for DAS based on its potential environmental impact, location, and the nature of activities involved. Projects near sensitive areas or those with significant pollution potential may still require full EIA/RIMA studies.

Key legal considerations

Your Diagn贸stico Ambiental Simplificado must include comprehensive identification of the entrepreneur with complete registration data, detailed characterization of the project including location and implementation timeline, thorough environmental diagnosis of the area of influence covering physical, biotic, and socioeconomic aspects, and systematic identification and assessment of potential environmental impacts. The document must demonstrate compliance with applicable environmental standards and propose mitigation measures for identified impacts. You're required to present technical data that supports the environmental viability of your project and shows adherence to pollution control measures. The assessment must be prepared by qualified environmental professionals and may require public consultation depending on state regulations.

Legal requirements in Brasil

Under Lei n潞 6.938/1981 (National Environmental Policy), all potentially polluting activities require environmental licensing, with DAS serving as one of the accepted assessment tools. CONAMA Resolution 237/1997 establishes the procedures and criteria for environmental licensing and formally recognizes simplified environmental studies like DAS. Lei Complementar 140/2011 defines the cooperation framework between federal, state, and municipal authorities in environmental licensing actions, determining which level of government has jurisdiction over your project. You must comply with CONAMA Resolution 001/1986 regarding environmental impact assessment criteria, even in simplified form. Additionally, Lei n潞 9.605/1998 (Environmental Crimes Law) establishes penalties for environmental violations, making accurate and complete assessment crucial. State environmental agencies may have additional specific requirements and technical guidelines that supplement federal regulations, so you must verify local requirements in your jurisdiction.
