Abstract: The urban and tourism expansion of the Metropolitan Region of Fortaleza has intensified the demand for road infrastructure projects, making the adoption of instruments capable of reconciling economic development with environmental protection essential. In this context, environmental licensing plays a fundamental role in the prevention, mitigation, and monitoring of environmental impacts resulting from highway projects. This study aimed to analyze the environmental licensing process for the duplication of the CE-025 highway, emphasizing the assessment of the quality of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and the Environmental Impact Report (RIMA), as well as the environmental impacts, mitigation measures, and conditions established in the Installation License. This study is justified by the importance of evaluating the quality of environmental studies used in the licensing process of road infrastructure projects, contributing to the improvement of environmental management. The research adopted a qualitative approach based on bibliographic and documentary analysis, supported by current environmental legislation and the assessment of the EIA/RIMA prepared for the duplication of the CE-025 highway. The quality assessment was conducted using the checklist proposed by Sánchez (2008), applying the Lee and Colley review package to classify the evaluated criteria. The results showed that the EIA presents satisfactory quality in its structural aspects; however, significant weaknesses were identified in the analysis of locational and technological alternatives, the assessment of cumulative impacts, the characterization of environmentally sensitive areas, and the level of detail of the environmental monitoring programs. Furthermore, limitations were identified in the risk assessment and in the communication of the results in the RIMA, highlighting the need to improve the technical quality of environmental studies. It is concluded that, although the environmental licensing process for the duplication of the CE-025 highway generally complied with legal requirements, improving the quality of environmental studies and the monitoring of licensing conditions is essential to strengthen the effectiveness of environmental licensing and support more robust decision-making in road infrastructure projects.

Abstract: Vegetation cover plays a fundamental role in maintaining environmental balance in urban areas, making its monitoring essential for environmental planning and management. In this context, this study aimed to evaluate the performance of vegetation indices in the Cocó State Park through the quantitative analysis of spectral indices and the visual interpretation of satellite images. Landsat 5 and Landsat 8 images acquired in 1985, 1995, 2005, 2015, and 2025 were processed using the Google Earth Engine platform to calculate the NDVI, SAVI, and EVI vegetation indices. The generated products were analyzed through thematic maps and descriptive statistics, allowing the assessment of temporal changes in vegetation cover and the comparison of the behavior of the three indices. The results indicated an overall increase in vegetation cover throughout the analyzed period, although a reduction was observed in 2005, possibly associated with the rainfall deficit recorded that year. The three vegetation indices showed similar temporal trends but differed in their representation of vegetation cover. NDVI presented higher values and a tendency to overestimate dense vegetation, whereas EVI showed a greater capacity to differentiate vegetation cover based on the visual interpretation of the generated cartographic products. However, this finding is limited to the visual assessment conducted in this study, as no field validation was performed. The results suggest that the establishment of Cocó State Park as a protected area may have contributed to the conservation of its vegetation cover over the last decades, while also demonstrating that each vegetation index has specific strengths and limitations that should be considered when interpreting the results.

Abstract: Coastal cities face disorderly population growth with the lack of basic sanitation as one of the major environmental and public health problems. The discharge of sewage is one of the most common types of oceanic pollution and storm drains are specific vectors of this contamination in coastal cities. Due to inadequate disposal, it is estimated that 80% of plastic waste in the terrestrial environment ends up in the ocean. In the environment, these plastic wastes are degraded and become microplastics (PMs). It is known that in aquatic environments these particles are quickly colonized by microorganisms that form biofilms on their surfaces. This makes MPs hosts and dispersers of potentially pathogenic microorganisms. Thus, this work aimed to study the presence of enteric bacteria adhered to microplastics present in water and sand at the outlet of storm sewers, on the edge of Fortaleza/Ceará. The collections were carried out in three storm sewers: on Av. Rui Barbosa (P1), Av. Desembargador Moreira (P2) and Riacho Maceió storm sewers (P3). Samples of water and wet sand were collected at the outlets of these storm sewers. Five liters of water was filtered at each point to separate MPs particles. One water sample was collected separately for colimetry analysis. In the sand samples, the separation of the microplastic was done by density difference using sea water. The plastic microparticles separated from the samples were subjected to agitation in solution (Tween 80 1% + Sodium Pyrophosphate 1%) to disaggregate the bacterial cells. The washing was inoculated on MacConkey Agar selective medium and the grown colonies were isolated for identification through the IMVIC test and antibiogram. After processing, the MPs were washed and dried for further identification. Most Probable Number (MPN) of Escherichia coli bacteria in 100mL of water was 1,600 at the three sampled points. Sixty strains grown in selective medium, with Gram-negative morphology, were isolated. Fifty-six remained viable for biochemical tests. The bacteria have been identified as members of the Enterobacteriaceae family and belonging to the genera: Citrobacter, Yersinieae, Pseudomonas, Pantoea., Enterobacter, Hafnia, Klebsiella, Escherichia e Citrobacter. Enteric bacteria isolates showed resistance to nalidixic acid, ceftazidime, nitrofurantoin and amoxicillin + clavulanic acid. In the identification of microplastic particles, synthetic fibers, plastic fragments and a pellet were verified. The presence of enterobacteria aggregated to plastic microfragments dispersed in the coastal environment by the drainage of stormsewers and their role in the transport and protection of potential pathogens and resistance genes through water bodies to the marine environment was evidenced. Future studies on enteric bacterial dispersion and antimicrobial resistance should consider the ecological influence and consequences on coastal and marine ecosystems.

Abstract: The solid waste management plan (SWMP) is a technical document that establishes guidelines, procedures, and responsibilities for the proper management of solid waste generated by an organization or activity, covering all stages of waste management. A large university campus is considered an enterprise subject to the preparation of a SWMP. In this context, such documents must ensure that waste management is carried out in an efficient and environmentally appropriate manner. Thus, the objective of this study is to evaluate the coverage and compliance with the minimum required content of the normative and sectoral solid waste management plans of the Federal University of Ceará (UFC), by verifying their conformity with the requirements established in Article 21 of the National Solid Waste Policy (Federal Law No. 12,305/2010). The methodology consisted of a documental analysis of the plans made available by the UFC Environmental Office (SMA/UFC) and on the university’s institutional website, focusing on the presence, structure, and coherence of the information required by the legislation. The results indicate that, although UFC has formal environmental management instruments and initiatives focused on environmental education, the plans still present relevant gaps, especially regarding waste characterization, identification of environmental liabilities, and the definition of preventive and corrective actions. Furthermore, the data reveals that, despite the fact that the sectoral plans have an educational nature and greater theoretical detail, they still require regulatory updating and more consistent technical diagnoses. In conclusion, the revision and improvement of solid waste management plans are essential to ensure greater effectiveness of environmental management, legal compliance, and the strengthening of the university’s institutional role as a reference in sustainable development.
