Uma proposta de acordo definitivo com os governos sobre reparação do desastre de Mariana (MG) totaliza R$ 127 bilhões, conforme comunicado relevante nesta segunda-feira (29) pela mineradora Vale, acionista da Samarco, em conjunto com a BHP. O valor tem o objetivo de compensar os danos causados pelo colapso da barragem de rejeitos de minério de ferro da Samarco em novembro de 2015, que resultou em 19 mortes, centenas de desabrigados e poluição do rio Doce até o oceano no Espírito Santo. Essa cifra indicada para o acordo representa uma melhoria na proposta das empresas em relação ao valor anterior de R$ 42 bilhões.
‘As empresas e autoridades públicas continuam empenhadas em avançar nas negociações e alcançar a aprovação de um acordo definitivo, seguindo os processos de governança e as leis vigentes’, declarou a Vale, enfatizando que informará o mercado sobre a possível aprovação de um acordo definitivo. Além disso, a busca por um entendimento entre as partes comprometidas ressalta a importância da responsabilidade corporativa em situações de crise e desastres ambientais.
