Avaliação de impactos ambientais na orla da união, margem direita do lago do Macurany, no município de Parintins-AM

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the environmental impacts on Orla da União, located on the right bank of Lake Macurany, located in the Municipality of Parintins/AM. The analysis will focus on environmental changes caused by disorderly human occupation and the lack of adequate infrastructure. The research focuses on the assessment of environmental impacts on the right bank of Lake Macurany, located in the Paulo Corrêa and União neighborhoods in Parintins/AM. Using a qualitative and exploratory approach, the study combines literature review, field research and application of the Rapid Assessment Protocol (PAR) to identify and evaluate the main environmental impacts, especially during periods of low water and flood. Data collection includes direct observations, photographic records and application of specific forms, the results of which are analyzed and presented in graphs for comparison and interpretation of the observed environmental impacts. The research reveals a series of environmental challenges in Orla da União, on the shore of Lake Macurany in Parintins/AM, including pollution from solid and liquid waste, lack of basic sanitation infrastructure and accelerated erosion. These problems highlight the urgent need for interventions to preserve the environment and promote sustainability in the area. The inadequate application of current environmental laws worsens the ongoing degradation of the lake's shores, emphasizing the importance of cooperation between municipal bodies and society to effectively implement environmental protection measures.
