Brazilian National Contingency Plan

The Brazilian National Contingency Plan is a comprehensive strategy designed to respond effectively to oil spills and environmental emergencies in Brazil's waters. It outlines how agencies coordinate to prevent, control, and clean up spills, minimize environmental impact, and protect public health and economic interests. The plan specifies responsibilities, communication protocols, response procedures, resource mobilization, and environmental monitoring. Its goal is to ensure a swift, organized, and effective response to maritime accidents, reducing ecological damage and safeguarding Brazil’s marine and coastal environments.
