On November 5, 2025, the National Commission for Regulatory Improvement (\u201cCONAMER<\/strong>\u201d) published the draft Agreement that discloses the environmental procedures under the responsibility of the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources (\u201cSEMARNAT<\/strong>\u201d) to be enabled through the Environmental Electronic Window (\u201cVEA<\/strong>\u201d) in matters of waste, environmental impact, and atmospheric emissions (the \u201cDraft Agreement<\/strong>\").<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Objective<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Draft Agreement seeks to digitalize the submission and management of environmental procedures through the VEA, a platform established by the Agreement published on January 8, 2025, in the Official Gazette of the Federation<\/em> (\u201cDOF\u201d). Its purpose is to simplify, enhance transparency, and expedite proceedings before the environmental authority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently, the VEA allows individuals and entities to register and create a citizen profile. Once the Draft Agreement is published in the DOF, the following procedures will be available:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WASTE<\/strong><\/strong><\/td>Registration of hazardous waste generators. Remediation proposal, Type A: Environmental Emergency.Remediation proposal, Type B: Environmental Liability.<\/td><\/tr>
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT<\/strong><\/strong><\/td>Notice of withdrawal of the Environmental Impact Authorization (\u201cEIA\u201d). Notice of no requirement for an EIA. Notice of change of holder of the EIA.<\/td><\/tr>
EMISSIONS<\/strong><\/strong><\/td>Notice of open burning.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Access to the VEA<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Registration on the platform can be completed using an electronic signature (e.firma<\/em>), CURP and password, or through Llave Mx<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Relevance<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The main benefits expected from its implementation include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Greater availability and accessibility of services.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Online monitoring and process control.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Reduction in time, costs, and use of material and environmental resources.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Recommendation<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Individuals and legal entities managing environmental procedures before SEMARNAT should become familiar with the VEA and consider its use in the planning and execution of environmental projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    It is important to note that the Draft Agreement is still under review by CONAMER to ensure compliance with efficiency, effectiveness, and transparency standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    At Basham, Ringe y Correa, S.C., <\/strong>we will continue monitoring the progress of the Draft Agreement, providing updates on its eventual publication in the DOF and any modifications resulting from the review process. We are also ready to provide comprehensive legal advice on environmental matters.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
