This Order defines technical standards and administrative procedures for remediating environmental damage. It categorizes environmental remediation into three distinct operational tiers. Primary remediation encompasses measures that restore damaged natural resources or impaired ecosystem functions toward baseline conditions. Complementary remediation applies at alternative physical sites when primary measures fail to achieve baseline environmental recovery. Compensatory remediation addresses temporary financial or ecological losses occurring throughout the interim restoration period. Operators responsible for activities causing environmental degradation must fulfill immediate reporting and operational obligations. Responsible entities are required to notify the National Environment Agency and state environmental inspectors upon discovering environmental damage or significant risk. Operators must submit a detailed remediation plan outlining technical execution strategies, proposed timelines, and environmental impact assessments for formal regulatory evaluation. Administrative supervision and oversight fall under the jurisdiction of the National Environment Agency and State Inspectorate of Environment and Forestry. The competent authority evaluates submitted technical proposals, selects required remediation mechanisms, and monitors on-site implementation. Non-compliant operators remain subject to enforcement measures, including state-conducted remediation financed through direct cost recovery mechanisms.
