Levantamento dos requisitos legais e propostas de procedimentos para o gerenciamento ambiental de postos de combustíveis em Curitiba

Abstract

In Curitiba, the activity of gas stations plays a key role in the local economy, supporting the city’s vast transportation network. However, with rapid urban growth and increasing dependence on motorized vehicles, these stations have become critical points of environmental concern. The main objective was to present the legal requirements and essential infrastructure of gas stations, identifying areas susceptible to pollution and proposing environmental management procedures. To this end, a methodology was used based on observations made by the author as a trainee at the Municipal Department of the Environment, his practical experience of inspecting gas stations, analyzing environmental reports, checking licensing documents and providing technical assistance. The conclusion is that gas stations face significant challenges in environmental management, but with the proper systematization of procedures, it is possible to ensure compliance with legislation and promote environmental protection and operational safety.
