OREANDA-NEWS. MMX, represented by its CEO and Investor Relations Officer, Carlos Gonzalez, signed an Initial Term of Commitment and Social and Environmental Responsibility with the Office of Public Prosecution of Minas Gerais (MPMG), in the presence of the Attorney-General, Carlos Andre Mariani Bittencourt. Also attending the signing of the term were the Public Prosecutor of Itauna, Daniel Batista Mendes and the regional coordinator of the Public Prosecutors for the Environment of the Upper Sao Francisco River, Francisco Chaves Generoso, Public Prosecutor Alceu Jose Torres Marques, Coordinator of the CAO (Center for Operational Support) for the Environment, Prosecutors Carlos Eduardo Ferreira Pinto, Coordinator-General of Public Prosecutors for the Environment of the Minas Gerais Hydrographic Basin, Mauro da Fonseca Ellovitch, regional coordinator of the Public Prosecutors for the Environment for the Rio das Velhas and Rio Paraopeba Basins, and Marcos Paulo de Souza Miranda, State Prosecution coordinator for Defense of Natural and Tourist Heritage in Minas Gerais.
The document ensures that a multidisciplinary team, nominated by the Office of Public Prosecution, will conduct technical studies aiming at evaluating all environmental studies prepared by MMX and, with this, give greater technical and legal security to the entire project in the licensing process. In Minas Gerais, this work, aiming at ensuring greater transparency in the environmental licensing process, has been conducted efficiently by the prosecutors that make up the CAOMA, especially by the NUCAM-Nucleus for the Resolution of Environmental Conflicts, in the person of its Coordinator, Public Prosecutor Carlos Eduardo Ferreira Pinto.
For the President of MMX, Carlos Gonzalez, the signing of this document is very important because it gives even greater legitimacy to the environmental studies carried out for the MMX projects. "With the monitoring carried out by the Office of Public Prosecution, we believe that the work done by MMX will be even more transparent than it already is. In addition, the signing of this document is yet another way of showing society that the building methods used in the project are safe, as well as the fact that we have fulfilled all of our commitments," he said.
