Itaqui port’s Zoning and Development Plan (PDZ) was approved by the Ministry of Infrastructure through an ordinance that will come into effect on the first of June this year. The document was published in the Official Gazette for the 21st of May, according to which it now receives the name PDZ of the Organized Port of Itaqui 2020. Before being forwarded to the National Secretariat of Ports and Water Transport, the study, composed of a diagnosis, operational plan, and zoned areas, was validated by the Maranhense Port Administration Company (EMAP) and by the Port Authority Council (CAP).

The document shows the future development of the port, areas to be worked on, expansions, cargo mix, and, most importantly, some goals linked to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The diagnosis recommended that 77 actions be implemented, which include management and operational improvements, a proposition for port and access investments, reorganization of organized port areas, and environmental changes.
