Abstract

The objective of this work was to conduct the economic valuation of a spring in the Passa-Três River basin in the urban perimeter of the municipality of Uruaçu/Goiás, in order to estimate the amount necessary to repair the damage caused by urban occupation using the Replacement Cost Method (RCM). For this, the digital elevation model (DPM) images, Google Satellite images and shapefile files from the SIEG platform were used as analysis material for the determination of the basin area, location of the spring points, spatial analysis and field work of the study area in order to identify the damage caused by urban occupation, and then estimate the cost necessary for the area restoration. All maps were generated by means of the free software QGIS 3.10 and its tool GRASS GIS. The presence of people and domestic animals in the area, the lack of fencing in the APP area, the presence of polluting material and little native vegetation, as well as the presence of gully-type erosion at the points where the surface water emerges, were identified by mapping and field work. The set of corrective actions adopted as remedial measures for the adequacy of the site following the determinations of Law No. 12,727/2012, resulted in a total cost of R$ 611,602.04 for the restoration of the spring, indicating that the preservation of an environmental area may be more economical than the repair after degradation by the misuse of its natural resources.
