For the Superintendent of Environment and Occupational Safety of CDRJ, Handley Corrêa, “the signing of the agreement demonstrates the goodwill of the parties involved to regularize the situation that had been pending since 2014 and represents a progress in the issue of prevention, monitoring, and response to accidental events involving oil and derivatives, in a shared manner between the Port Authority and the companies operating in the port.”
The CAE was inaugurated in 2009, a result of discussions and studies between CDRJ, Port Operators, and the environmental agency, and has always operated actively without interruptions, even with the official agreement pending for a period. The service has teams working 24 hours a day, capable of responding to up to two simultaneous accident cases.
