The State of São Paulo in Brazil Introduces Voluntary Registration for Sustainable Mineral Suppliers
The industrialized state of São Paulo, known for setting the environmental standards in Brazil, has taken a pioneering step in promoting sustainability within the mining sector.
Starting from July this year, the decree number 67.409, issued on December 28, 2022, comes into effect in the state of São Paulo, establishing the requirement for a registry of companies that want to sell products and by-products - CADMINÉRIO and establishes procedures for their acquisition by the Government of the State of São Paulo.
The measure is celebrated by the construction sector - sand and crushed rocks firstly - as it is seen as another step towards self-regulation, requiring that aggregates purchased and used in projects in the State of São Paulo be supplied by companies compliant with mineral, environmental, and tax regulations.
Now, the sector's aspiration is that, in its regulation, transportation will also be required to comply with legal weight limits, a request the industry has been fighting for over the past few years.
