Introduction
The Tietê-Paraná waterway area, which includes Piracicaba,
shall benefit from the low cost of electricity. Added to the region's
hydroelectric potential (one of the greatest in the world), a 3,200
km natural gas duct between Brazil and Bolivia is under construction.
This project will supply natural gas for the industrial areas of
Piracicaba and will also provide cheaper and environmentally safe
energy for the whole region. Cheaper means of transportation, will
also add to self-supported growth of the entire region.
Natural gas represents only 2% of the energy used in Brazil today
but according to recent surveys this rate shall reach 12% by the
year 2010.
The State of São Paulo is the largest power supplier in
Brazil, with 11 GW operating power capacity and 10 million power
consumers, the equivalent to approximately 34% of the country's
energy. Power generation and transmission is made by three state
companies: CESP (Companhia Energética de São Paulo),
ELETROPAULO (Eletricidade de São Paulo S/A) and CPFL (Companhia
Paulista de Força e Luz).
Piracicaba's power supply is provided by CPFL, responsible for
power lines in major urban areas of the State.

of Water Consumption and Domestic and Industrial Pollutants
Semae can presently supply (obtain and treat) 2,0 m3 of water per
second, far more than the city average consumption of 1,22 m3 per
second thus resulting in a superavit of 0,78 m3 per second. Piracicaba
is included in the list of cities to be awarded the Saturnino de
Brito Prize given by the National Association of Municipal Sanitation
Services (ASSEMAE). This awaard is given to cities whose 95% of
the population has piped water aand sewers. Water treatment, interruption
in the waater supply aand price is taken into account.
Water pipelines: 82,802 - 100% of population
Sewage connections: 78,435 - 97% of population
(Data collected in November 1995)
GUIDE PLAN FOR INDUSTRIAL WASTE
The DAIA - Board for Analysis on Environmental Impact, the Technical
Committee for Natural Resources and CONSEMA - State Board for the
Environment, have already approved the Guide Plan for Industrial
Waste. The project is now being nalyzed by CETESB - Technology Company
for Environmentl Safety which will issue the official license and
be in charge of the follow up for building nd use of a dump site
for industrial waste.
Projected to be in aa 3,000m area with a life span of 15 years,
this laandfill will have capacity for 125 tons of solid industrial
waste and 2.5 tons of liquid, non biodegradble and low level humidity
industrial waste thus avoiding gas formation and unpleasant odors.
The Guide Plan for a solid industrial waaste lndfill designed to
be implemented in the area that comprises the Piracicab, Capivaari
nd Jundiai basin takes into aaccount the possibility of traansforming
the industrial dump site in Center for industrial waste treatment.
