Alexandre Sion – Coordinator and Author of the article “The new mining dam regulation by the National Mining Agency: Resolution No. 95/2022”

Book Description:

Currently, Brazil has 911 mining tailings dams, of which 458 are included in the National Dam Safety Policy (PNSB). Given the inherent risk of these structures, legislation has sought specific and meticulous regulation for the safety management of mining dams. The National Mining Agency (ANM) has been striving to fulfill its role in regulating and overseeing mining activities, establishing direct and transparent communication with the regulated sector and allowing for social participation. On February 16, 2022, the ANM published Resolution No. 95, which introduced innovations in the safety management of mining tailings dams. Considering the extensive social participation process during the drafting of Resolution No. 95/2022 by the ANM, this article aims to analyze the main regulatory changes and their respective impacts and challenges for enterprises that use dams as a method of tailings disposal in mining, taking into account the social participation process.
