Decree No. 11.043 approving the National Solid Waste Plan (PNRS).

The National Solid Waste Plan (Planares) represents the long-term strategy at the national level to operationalize the legal provisions, principles, objectives and guidelines of the Policy. The Plan begins with a diagnosis of the solid waste situation in the country, followed by a proposal of scenarios, in which national, international and macroeconomic trends are contemplated. And, based on the premises considered in these initial chapters, the goals, guidelines, projects, programs and actions aimed at achieving the objectives of the Law No. 12.305 for a horizon of 20 years are proposed. The Plan is valid for an indefinite period and must be updated every four years. Planares aims to guide the management of solid waste nationally and over a 20-year horizon, taking into consideration (i) an analysis of waste generated in Brazil, (ii) the expected scenarios for managing different types of waste, (iii) the applicable targets for managing different types of waste, (iv) the guidelines and strategies proposed to enable environmentally sound solid waste management, (v) the programs and actions for adequate solid waste management, (vi) the norms and technical conditions to enable access to government-funded resources, (vii) the norms and guidelines for the adequate final disposal of tailings (or residues, when applicable) and (viii) the means of control and inspection to implement and operationalize environmentally sound solid waste management. Planares provides important management instruments, such as the national inventory of solid waste and the Waste Transport Manifest (MTR), which aim at tracking and controlling the process for proper solid waste management. The plan presents objectives, including goals related to expanding the collection of urban solid waste, maximizing the recovery of materials, the energetic use of waste, the environmentally sound final disposal of waste, the closure of dumps and controlled landfills, the implementation of charges by municipalities related to solid waste management services, the progressive increase of solid waste mass recovery nationally, the formalization of contracts between municipalities and collector associations, and the implementation of initiatives for recovering organic waste.
