Urban planning and management instruments for flood mitigation: Case study of Rio de Janeiro cities along the Muriaé river

Environmental disasters, such as floods, can cause material disruption and human lives, becoming a challenge for the population and public managers. Integrating city planning and development with environmental aspects becomes fundamental, especially considering the context of the climate emergency. In this sense, thinking about flood mitigation strategies within the scope of sustainable development, such as sustainable drainage techniques, recovery of degraded areas and requalification of watercourses, has been a way to avoid, neutralize or reduce the problem. This work aims to investigate the legal instruments for planning and managing the use of land and water resources, as well as discussing the challenges and strategies for coping with flood mitigation, with a case study of Rio de Janeiro cities along the Muriaé river. The case of the study region reaffirms the need to review legislation, mainly regarding the preservation and restoration of areas of native vegetation.
