Diagnóstico Ambiental de alternativas para la selección de la escombrera en el Municipio de Pamplona, Norte de Santander.

Abstract

This project was aimed at carrying out an environmental diagnosis of alternatives for the selection of a site, which would guarantee to the Pamplona community the proper management of Construction and Demolition Waste (RCD); to this end, a three-phase methodology was used, where the objectives proposed in this work were developed in each of them. In Phase I, a debris volume diagnosis was carried out, where an analysis of the current state of the generation of these RCDs in the municipality was made. In Phase II, potential areas were classified for the location of the municipal dump, where three potential areas and their main characteristics were identified. For Phase III, an identification and evaluation was carried out of the possible impacts that may be generated in the different alternatives by the activities carried out in the stages of adaptation, operation and final closure of the municipal dump. Finally, as a result of this analysis of alternatives and taking into account, inter alia, the evaluation criteria defined by resolution 472 of 2017, it was possible to identify that the most viable alternative for the location of the final disposal site of the RCD generated in the municipality is Alternative number 1. Which, obtained a score (of the evaluation criteria) of 41 points. It also presents outstanding advantages compared to alternatives 2 and 3, among which it is considered that it has easy access by which cargo vehicles can be transported, has a reasonable storage capacity according to the generation of debris produced by the municipality and its useful life is higher compared to the other two alternatives.
