Ítem Determinación de la eficiencia de bioadsorción de cromo hexavalente a partir de la biomasa de retamo espinoso (Ulex europaeus), mejorado con cloruro férricoGonzález Neira, Wendy Tatiana; Guerra Rodríguez, JayerthHexavalent chromium is a heavy metal that is highly toxic, as it has the capacity to bioaccumulate in the soil and in various plant species, which are a food source for the population, causing multiple health problems such as cancer, dermatitis, asthma, among others. This is why bioadsorption emerges as an alternative to the operating costs of conventional technologies such as reverse osmosis. In addition, this technique allows giving a utility to plant species that are cataloged as invasive species, such as the case of the thorny broom (Ulex europaeus), which due to its rapid spread and adaptation to the tropical climate has caused the displacement of species, the reduction of biodiversity, among other environmental problems. Therefore, in the present study it was determined that the maximum adsorption capacity of Cr(VI) on hawthorn broom is 303,0303 mg/g, making use of untreated and seedless biomass, at pH 2, a contact time of 2 hours, a dose of 0,3 g of adsorbent. Additionally, the highest adsorption percentage was 52,983% at a concentration of 138 mg/L, under the aforementioned conditions. The best fitting kinetic model was the pseudo-second order model, and the isotherm representing the adsorption process was the Langmuir isotherm. Finally, in the continuous test, a removal rate of 99,114% was reached 60 minutes after the start of the test, and the biomass saturation point was reached after treating a volume of 28 mL of biomass.Ítem Formulación del plan de manejo ambiental de la finca Los Cuervos ubicada en el municipio de Venadillo TolimaOrjuela Giraldo, John Sebastián; García Valbuena, Cesar AugustoSustainable agriculture is presented as an essential approach to benefit society as a whole, integrating biodiversity and communities in their productive systems. According to Bifani (1994), it is essential that agricultural systems consider all their dimensions to promote development that is socially, economically and environmentally viable. The green growth policy seeks to improve the efficient use of natural resources, such as water and soil, in the economic sectors, reducing negative impacts. However, inefficiency in land use is attributed to multiple barriers, such as lack of support to producers and limited access to technology and knowledge. In this context, a management plan is proposed for Los Cuervos farm, with the objective of improving the quality of life of its inhabitants and promoting sustainable production that values traditional peasant knowledge. The project is developed in three phases: first, a diagnosis is made that analyzes the current situation, identifying needs and opportunities; second, an environmental assessment is carried out that includes land use zoning and evaluation of the environmental impacts of production activities; and finally, an environmental management plan is formulated that includes measures to mitigate negative impacts, as well as a follow-up plan and a contingency plan to deal with emergencies. This approach not only seeks to improve production, but also to promote the transfer of technology and knowledge to the surrounding communities.Ítem Evaluación de la capacidad de pronóstico del sistema de guía de crecidas repentinas del noreste de Sudamérica (NWSAFFGS) para una subzona hidrográfica priorizada en Colombia(Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Sastoque Barreto, Ana María; Bernal Suárez, Néstor Ricardo; Bernal Suárez, Néstor Ricardo [0000-0003-0926-7935]Floods and flash floods are recurrent and devastating natural phenomena that cause significant economic losses and threaten the lives and well-being of affected communities, as well as the integrity of river ecosystems. The ability to accurately predict these events is crucial for risk management and urban and rural development planning. This thesis focuses on the verification of the NWSAFFGS system for the prediction of flash floods and floods in a hydrographic subzone, this by verifying three products: the predicted average areal precipitation (FMAP), the average soil moisture (ASM) and flash flood reference values (FFG). Verification is performed using statistical analysis such as Spearman correlation, Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) and bias (BIAS), in addition to the use of contingency tables. In relation to the performance of the system, although it detects the temporary patterns of precipitation, it overestimates the extreme events; compared to the temporal performance it presents a better overall performance in the dry and transition periods. With relation to land management, the issuance of alerts for flash floods is linked with the management of risk during the formulation of Watershed Management and Management Plans (POMCA), incorporating the threat approach linked to the exposed element. Finally, verification of the NWSAFFGS system shows that, although it has potential, its accuracy in predicting extreme events needs to be improved; this will contribute significantly to reducing the risk associated with floods and flash floods, improving planning and decision-making in risk management in vulnerable communities.Ítem Apoyo a la formulación del Sistema de Gestión Ambiental para la Cantera Villa Paula SAS con base en la Norma Técnica Colombiana NTC ISO 14001 - 2015Muñoz Sánchez, Juan Sebastián; Ríos Barragán, Félix Santiago; Figueroa Fernández, José Alberto; Figueroa Fernández, José Alberto [0000-0002-1037-9881]The design of an Environmental Management System (EMS) for Cantera Villa Paula SAS responds to the growing need to effectively manage the environmental impacts associated with extractive operations. This process focuses on establishing a comprehensive framework that accomplish with relevant legal and regulatory standards, as well as promoting sustainable practices. The fundamental purpose of the EMS is to mitigate the adverse effects of quarry activities on the surrounding natural environment while encouraging the adoption of proactive measures for environmental conservation. The formulation of this system represents a commitment to environmental responsibility, seeking to harmonize extractive activities with the preservation of biodiversity and the promotion of balanced and sustainable development for the benefit of the local community and ecosystem.Ítem Apoyo al informe de formulación de estrategias para el desarrollo del plan de gestión corporativo de huella de carbono a la Terminal Salitre de TransporteMejia Madero, Alejandro; Murad Pedraza, José Alejandro; Murad Pedraza, José Alejandro [0000-0003-4211-2601]Climate change is a global phenomenon that has garnered increasing attention in recent decades due to its significant impact on the environment, society, and the economy. It refers to long-term changes in the planet's climate patterns, including the rise in the Earth's average temperature and extreme weather events. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) confirmed this in its Fourth Assessment Report, stating that "the warming of the climate system is unequivocal, as evidenced by the observed increases in global average air and ocean temperatures, widespread melting of snow and ice, and rising global average sea levels" (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, 2008, p. 12). The report also discusses the main causes, primarily greenhouse gases (GHGs), making the control and measurement of these gases essential. Hence, measuring the carbon footprint of a business or company is crucial. The document titled "Support for the Strategy Formulation Report for the Development of the Corporate Carbon Footprint Management Plan for the Salitre Transport Terminal" presents a detailed study on the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions generated by the Salitre Transport Terminal and proposes strategies for their mitigation and compensation. Emission factors from the IPCC and information management tools were used to calculate the GHG inventory. Organizational and operational boundaries were defined, and the quantification methodology was selected.Ítem Aplicación del índice de uso de agua para la priorización de reglamentación de corrientes hidrográficas en la cuenca del río Apulo(Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Romero Bohórquez , Yeiferson Leonel; Osorio Lozano, Juan Pablo; Espinosa García , Helmut; Espinosa García, Helmut [0000-0001-9341-3995]The Apulo River basin, located in several municipalities of Cundinamarca, is characterized by a high water demand due to factors such as population density, agricultural activities, non-stabled livestock, tourism, and industrial production, which increases pressure on the water system and generates conflicts over access to the resource during the dry season. To ensure the sustainable and equitable access of users in this basin to the resource, the water courses (Hydrographic Units level I and II) with the greatest vulnerability to source depletion were identified using the Water Use Index (IUA). This monitoring criterion, defined in the National Policy for Integrated Water Resource Management (PNGIRH), allows prioritizing the regulation of vulnerable water courses in the basin, being used by government organizations such as the Autonomous Corporation of Cundinamarca to evaluate water supply and demand. The basin’s supply of the 23 streams in the Paulo River was determined through the rainfall-runoff method using the geomatic tool HEC – Geo RAS, for processing cartographic information such as surface coverages, soil units, and climatological data from nine stations throughout the basin, with data series spanning 10 years. The water demand was determined by characterizing the records of current concessions granted in the basin by the Autonomous Corporation of Cundinamarca, which allocate flow based on the consumption modules adopted through CAR Agreement No. 004 of 2016. Subsequently, the supply-demand relationship was estimated using the IUA (Water Use Index), which corresponds to the amount of water used by different user sectors over a specific period (annual, monthly) and per spatial unit of the hydrographic subzone, in relation to the available surface water supply for the same time and spatial units. Five streams with critical IUA were identified, which are susceptible to flow regulation projects.Ítem Apoyo en el desarrollo de la acción 2.1 hito 1 - metodología estandarizada para el análisis de presiones por impulsores de pérdida de biodiversidad y conflictos socioambientales en ecosistemas marinos y ambientes dulceacuícolas, del CONPES 4050 en la subdirección de estudios ambientales – IDEAM(Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Galeano González, Oscar David; Figueroa Fernández, José AlbertoThis document is based on the internship carried out at the IDEAM Environmental Studies Sub-directorate, with the purpose of developing an instrument to consolidate the socio-environmental pressures and conflicts caused by the drivers of biodiversity loss. The research adopted a practical approach, collecting information from 18 Protected Area Management Plans. The findings highlighted the identification of pressures, problems, identification of actors, environmental zoning and management mechanisms within protected areas, along with proposals that contribute to the development of the standardized methodology for the analysis of pressures by drivers of biodiversity loss and socio-environmental conflicts in marine ecosystems and freshwater environments.Ítem Propuesta de guía para la participación en el programa de gestión ambiental empresarial “ACERCAR” de la Secretaría Distrital de Ambiente (SDA)(Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldás) Usuga Florez, Diego Fernando; Bernal Suárez, Néstor Ricardo; Bernal Suárez, Néstor Ricardo [0000-0003-0926-7935]Added value is a determining factor in the competitiveness of companies; Finally, it is essential to take advantage of all the business capabilities you have and improve them continuously. For this reason, the District Environment Secretariat offers companies a way to reinforce, implement and publicize their environmental management through the ACERCAR certification process, a Business Management Program that highlights and exposes the environmental commitment of companies and offers . the possibility of participating in more representative programs with more benefits. The certification process is carried out through a support that lasts 10 months, developing in 4 stages that are: registration, support, monitoring and completion with the delivery of results, measuring the achievements that the company is achieving. . in the process, through the delivery of a matrix of environmental aspects and impacts, the approval of questionnaires referring to the knowledge imparted by the tutors in the sessions held weekly, delivery of an environmental program proposed for the company, a legal matrix that identifies the environmental requirements applicable to it, the report of environmental indicators of the last years of the company in the virtual window of the District Environment Secretariat and, finally, a follow-up visit, in which compliance with the identified aspects. Therefore, the objective is to propose a guide for participation in the program, taking as a case study for the support deliverables the company Interaseo S.A.S, which was already participating in the ACERCAR program in 2022.Ítem Análisis de la relación entre la tasa retributiva por vertimientos puntuales al agua con los objetivos de calidad establecidos por las autoridades ambientales CORANTIOQUIA y CAR Cundinamarca para el periodo 2017-2022(Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Romero Bustos, Ana Karina; Néstor Ricardo, Bernal Suárez; Bérnal Suárez, Néstor Ricardo [0000-0003-0926-7935939391]This work analyzes the relationship between the Remuneration Rate for Timely Discharges into Water (TRVP) and compliance with the water quality objectives established by the environmental authorities of the Regional Autonomous Corporation of the Center of Antioquia (CORANTIOQUIA) and the Regional Autonomous Corporation of Cundinamarca ( CAR) during the period 2017-2022. To address this relationship, a quantitative methodology structured in several phases was used. Firstly, the key variables to be considered within the study were defined, subsequently, the validation of data obtained from the implementation reports of the Remunerative Rate for Specific Discharges into Water was carried out, analyzing both the billing of the rate and the contribution of different economic sectors and the behavior of the number of users during the period under study, allowing the identification of trends towards the reduction of pollutant discharged loads of BOD5 and TSS in both authorities, however challenges persist in meeting the global pollutant load goals. To delve deeper into this study, a Spearman correlation analysis was carried out, which quantified the relationship between the billing of the Remuneration Rate for Specific Water Discharges and compliance with quality objectives, indicating a negative correlation in both. jurisdictions. Furthermore, it was observed that the relationship between the billing of the Remuneration Rate for Specific Discharges into Water and the fulfillment of the polluting load goals varied significantly between the different hydrographic subzones, which shows that the TRVP can have diverse behaviors depending on the specific characteristics of each area.Ítem Contaminación atmosférica industrial y ordenamiento territorial urbano: Un estudio de caso en el área metropolitana de la Ciudad de Bogotá (Colombia).(Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Rojas Quintana, Laura Vanessa; Murad Pedraza, José Alejandro; Murad Pedraza, José Alejandro [0000-0003-4211-2601]The development of industrial, agricultural and mining activities added to the increase of vehicles, mainly, in areas of expansion and urban development, has generated a negative alteration in the air resource; which leads to damage to the environment and health. For this reason, the purpose of this project is the determination of technical and environmental guidelines for the incorporation of areas of high air pollution in the regulation of industrial uses and the Land use plans of the f the Bogotá - Cundinamarca metropolitan region. Initially, a bibliographic research system was proposed in order to determine what criteria have been considered in Colombia and in the world for the inclusion of air pollution in land use plans, followed by an analysis of historical data obtained from SISAIRE using python and R to determine source areas of contamination (zones or regions that, due to hosting multiple emission sources, are considered as an area that generates air polluting substances) in accordance with the provisions of Decrete 1076 of 2015. The stations Nemocón, Sibaté - Los Sauces, Funza - Sisbén, Mosquera - Villa deportiva, Soacha - Hospital and Sopó - Briceño were identified as high source areas of contamination for the PM10 pollutant in 2017, while for the SDA jurisdiction, the Carvajal – Sevillana and Kennedy stations were identified as source areas of contamination. For the PM2.5 pollutant, the areas near the Carvajal – Sevillana and Kennedy monitoring stations were identified as high source areas of contamination. Finally, technical and environmental guidelines were proposed, which provide a roadmap for decision makers and government institutions in order to take into account air quality as a determinant when making territorial planning plans.Ítem Evaluación de la calidad hídrica de los cuerpos lénticos como sistemas cenagosos, lagos y lagunas que se encuentren incluidos en los POMCA de Colombia, para la exposición de motivos del proyecto de ley en restauración de ecosistemas hídricos, propuesto por la senadora Isabel Cristina ZuletaSánchez Vargas, Nicoll Tatiana; Moreno Moreno, Carlos HernandoOver the past decades, lagoons, lakes and swamp systems in Colombia have been essential in playing a crucial role in providing ecosystem services, such as the supply of quality drinking water to local populations. The relevance of these lentic water bodies motivates the completion of this internship, whose central purpose is to evaluate the quality of the water in said ecosystems that are contemplated in an already existing POMCA. This effort is part of the bill proposed by Senator Isabel Cristina Zuleta, which seeks the restoration of water ecosystems in Colombia. During the internship, a technical analysis was obtained that determines compliance with the physicochemical and microbiological parameters established in the Hydrographic Basin Planning and Management Plans (POMCA) of their respective hydrographic basins for the bodies of water under study. In addition, Environmental Quality Indices such as the ICA and the EIT were calculated, in order to graphically represent them on a map on a national scale and analyze the current average state of these waters, thus promoting sustainable and equitable management of resources. water in Colombia.Ítem Modelización de escenarios para contaminantes atmosféricos de criterio mediante la plataforma de análisis de bajas emisiones (LEAP-IBC): un caso de estudio en 4 categorías de emisiones para Colombia(Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Robles Sánchez, Andrés Felipe; Murad Pedraza, José Alejandro; Murad Pedraza, José Alejandro [0000-0003-4211-2601]Some productive activities emit substances into the atmosphere that negatively alter air quality. Within the framework of this problem, Colombia has acquired international commitments related to the reduction of greenhouse gases and short-lived climate pollutants, while, has worked internally to reduce criteria pollutant levels based on various resolutions. Among the studies that support air quality management and decision-making, the Institute of Hydrology, Meteorology and Environmental Studies (IDEAM) carried out the inventory of criteria pollutants and black carbon for the country in 2014 in order to identify the emission sources and the contribution of each economic sector to air pollution. This work focuses on criteria pollutants and black carbon, and it’s based on the inventory presented by IDEAM to prioritize emission categories and propose measures that contribute to the reduction of emissions by 2030 and 2050, generating mitigation scenarios thanks to the Low Emission Analysis Platform (LEAP). Initially, the data from the national inventory of criteria pollutants and black carbon corresponding to activity and emission factors for each category of emissions presented were loaded, later, demographic and economic information was collected to make projections of emissions to 2030 and 2050 to generate the reference scenario, with the projections and a bibliographic search system, the categories to prioritize were identified and measures were formulated according to projects, measures and strategies carried out by the country that are aligned with the research work. The need to prioritize the residential sector, transport, agriculture and the use of coal was evidenced. For the residential sector, changes in the use of firewood were modeled according to the national plan for the progressive substitution of firewood; for the transport sector, technological change and the substitution of diesel vehicles were taken into account; for the agricultural sector the appropriate national action of mitigation (NAMA) for panela was modeled, and for coal, changes in industry consumption were modeled at a national and international level. In addition, the changes in the residential sector show a co-benefit in public health, since it shows a reduction in premature deaths due to the reduction of indoor pollution by 2050.Ítem Evaluación inicial de la medula del arboloco Montanoa quadrangularis como posible sustituto del poliestireno expandido (EPS) y la fibra de vidrio a partir de la conductividad y la resistencia térmica(Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Quiñones González, John Alexander; Ussa Garzón, Jaime Eddy; Ussa Garzón, Jaime Eddy [0000-0002-5138-8119]Many of today's environmental issues are related to the production and use of single-use products, which are made up of production and use of single-use products, which are composed of highly durable materials, such as Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) and materials of great durability, such as Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) and fiberglass. These two elements are in great demand due to their thermal insulation capacity. thermal insulation capacity, which is why this research raises the initial possibility of substituting such synthetic materials, taking into account the the initial possibility of substituting such synthetic materials, taking into consideration a tree species known as Arboloco known as Arboloco (Montanoa quadrangularis Sch. bip. Asteraceae). For this purpose, the theoretical values of the thermal conductivity and thermal resistance of the two materials in question are identified. In this way, these values are compared with the results obtained experimentally, this, based on the ASTM C-177 standard of 2019 and through the use of the Heat Transfer Service Unit H112 of the firm P.A. HILTON LTD present in the laboratory of Appropriate Technologies, of the Vivero headquarters, of the Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas, in the city of Bogota. After an analysis of the results of each material and a contrast with the data collected, a comparison is made between the three materials, finding that, although the Arboloco has higher conductivity and lower thermal resistance than the other two, the difference is minimal and its thermal insulation capacity is still considered effective in terms of the two thermal properties already mentioned, so that from an initial evaluation, this can be considered a material of lower environmental impact with the potential to replace conventional synthetic materials.Ítem Diseño y ejecución de un programa para el manejo seguro de sustancias químicas de la empresa TECNIACRYLICOS LTDALinares Cárdenas, Esneider José; Mojica Hernández, Martha Lucía; Cobaleda Bernal, Yovanni Arley; Mojica Hernández, Martha Lucía [0000-0001-8329-9033]The objective of the internship was to develop a program for the safe handling of chemical substances in the company Tecniacrylicos Ltda. This was carried out through a bibliographical review of different documents obtained from secondary sources, from there the necessary measures were established to fulfill the initially stated objective. A roadmap was developed that allowed the generation of different formats that facilitated the verification of the information corresponding to each of the substances used in the company and its due procedure for an appropriate handling of the same. All of the above, based on the globally harmonized system and the Colombian technical standard 4435. Finally, the importance of a program such as the one developed in this internship was determined to prevent and mitigate negative consequences for human health and the environment from the different chemical substances used by the company Tecniacrylicos Ltda.Ítem Proyecto para la medición de eficiencia de modelo de recolección para recicladores por un vehículo de tracción asistida frente a la tracción humana(Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Mora Barrera, Juliana; Moreno Moreno, Carlos HernandoThe public-private alliance IPPP made up of the German Cooperation Agency GIZ, the National Association of Colombian businessmen ANDI, Equirent, a leading rental company, and the Colombian Association of Recyclers GAIAREC, seeks to implement a sustainable model of replacing VTHs with Traction Vehicles Assisted (VTAS), to strengthen the work of professional recyclers with a tool worthy of work, optimize the collection of usable waste, increase utilization rates and promote the change in citizen culture towards the country's circular economy with the professional recyclers as the main actor in the recycling supply chain, with better provision of the utilization service by professional recyclers, we are moving towards cultural changes, making citizens aware of their obligations as users of the service. The creation of this Alliance is based on understanding that the recycling population faces great challenges in the transportation and logistics of taking recyclable material from its collection point to the ECA's, which is why having an assisted tool means increasing the coverage of recycling routes. collection and a significant increase in the country's utilization rates. In this way, the main objective is to operationalize the model of access to VTAS by recyclers by involving various key actors from the public and private sectors to make the model sustainable and financially viable. Likewise, the durability and optimal useful life of the VTAS must be guaranteed with the commitment of the Occupational Recyclers Organizations (ORO).Ítem Actualización del plan de manejo ambiental para el proyecto de obra “reducción de riesgos por movimientos en masa presentes en la urbanización Sasipa -Silvania” bajo la dirección de la Unidad Administrativa Especial para la Gestión del Riesgo y Desastres de la Gobernación de Cundinamarca(Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Peña Estupiñan, Jefferson; Moreno Moreno, Carlos HernandoThis document is the final report of the internship developed at UAEGRD during the end of the year 2023 and the beginning of the year 2024, focused on updating the EMP presented by the contractor in the “CONSORCIO MITIGACIÓN DE RIESGOS BARUCH” for the works contract No. UAEGRD-LP-112-2023 with the intention of carrying out works for risk mitigation in surrounding areas in the urbanization Sasipa.Ítem Software para la identificación de productos que causan alteraciones a los parámetros de vertimientos hospitalarios(Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Castañeda López, María Paula; Yara Varela, Jeferson Alexander; Figueroa Fernández, José AlbertoThis research focused on the development of a digital tool to identify cleaning and maintenance products that alter wastewater discharges in hospitals. The main objective is to improve the management of hospital discharges to comply with Colombian environmental regulations, specifically Resolution 0631 of 2015 and article 28, benefiting the health sector. This project proposes to recognize components in cleaning products, determine applicable regulatory parameters and develop an application to interpret chemical parameters altered by these products, ensuring their regulatory compliance. The feasibility of the research, the regulations and methodological design are addressed, to culminate in the creation of an algorithm for a digital tool that facilitates the identification of impactful compounds in the water environment with easy use and access.Ítem Delimitación de ronda hídrica de la quebrada Socha y adecuación hidráulica de la misma en el kilómetro 2,7 y 3,2(Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Marcelo Torres, Luis David; Bolivar Bernal, Pablo Nicolas; Moreno Moreno, Carlos HernandoThe central issue addressed in this research is related to the Socha stream and its discontinuity problems, leading to stagnation points due to deficiencies in its design and location. These deficiencies result from a lack of knowledge among the community or individuals involved in its construction, which has caused recurrent flooding and the fragmentation of water bodies, negatively impacting ecosystems and local communities. This project focuses on the geomorphological and hydrological analysis of the Socha stream, following current regulations.It has been identified that the current situation of the stream does not meet the necessary topographic specifications for proper drainage. Therefore, it is essential to develop detailed engineering designs for the modification of the stream. Additionally, efforts are being made to establish actions to reduce the risks of both natural and human-induced floods, prioritizing the recovery of the stream's banks and morphology. The project will contribute to the conservation of the natural environment and the sustainable development of the region.Ítem Apoyo para la zonificación ambiental del municipio de Albán, Cundinamarca, como componente esencial de la etapa de formulación en el proceso de revisión y ajuste de su esquema de ordenamiento territorialGarzón Perdomo, Johan Andrey; Ussa Garzón, Jaime EddyThe main objective of this project is to design the Environmental Zoning for the municipality of Albán, Cundinamarca, as an essential component in the review and adjustment of its Territorial Land-Use Plan (EOT). The proposed methodology is divided into three fundamental stages: Territorial Information Management, Territorial State Assessment, and the Design of Activity Areas and Land-Use Regimes. In the first stage, normative, technical, and cartographic information related to land-use planning determinants within the municipality's jurisdiction was collected. This includes aspects such as the classification of land under the ongoing planning process. The second stage focused on the Territorial State Assessment, where the land-use planning determinants were identified, specifically their levels of restriction and conditioning. Subsequently, activity areas and land-use regimes were defined for the entire area of the municipality of Albán, based on the territory's potential and the land-use planning determinants. Finally, based on the territorial classification outlined in Article 10 of Law 388 of 1997 and its categories of protection, production, and restricted development, a recommended land-use map was created for the territory of Albán. It was found that 63% of the municipal area is subject to some land-use planning determinant (DOT), and 37% (1917.3 ha) was subject to zoning. From this latter area, the land-use and management regime was developed, resulting in 61% being designated for traditional agricultural and/or forestry use, and 38% being designated for semi-intensive agricultural and/or forestry useÍtem Apoyo técnico en el ajuste del esquema de ordenamiento territorial de ÚticaGómez Novoa, Camilo; Jiménez Núñez, Juan Esteban; Figueroa Fernández, José AlbertoIn the first instance, reference must be made to "territorial planning." According to the provisions of Law 388 of July 18, 1997, territorial planning is a set of concerted political-administrative and physical planning actions undertaken by a territorial entity, in the exercise of the public function that corresponds to them, within the limits set by the Constitution and laws. This is done in order to have efficient instruments to guide the development of the territory under their jurisdiction and regulate the use, transformation, and occupation of space in accordance with socio-economic development strategies and in harmony with the environment and historical and cultural traditions. Territorial planning processes are not exempt from constant normative updates. Therefore, the incorporation of basic studies for risk management is of vital importance, as stated by Decree 1807 of 2014 compiled in Decree 1077 of 2015 and Decree 1232 of 2020. Additionally, the incorporation of the thematic axis of Climate Change is essential, starting from the third national communication on climate change conducted in 2017. In this context, this document is presented as an analysis of the environmental dimension of the municipality within the framework of the diagnostic stage. The ultimate objective of this technical support is to formulate a Primary Ecological Structure based on the environmental determinants issued by the Regional Autonomous Corporation - CAR Cundinamarca. This should encompass all elements of environmental importance, including those defined by the Zoning of the Río Negro POMCA, approved by Resolution 497 of 2022
