ABSTRACT
Incorporation of costs due to environmental impacts in cost-benefit analysis of projects is not an easy task due to intangible market value of most goods and services affected by the activities planned in the project. In this paper we discuss the environmental externalities of the establishing of a fish processing plant in Manaus, AM. In this case we discuss the impacts on the water quality of the river receiving the plant effluents; therefore valuation of goods and services is not needed. The methodology use environmental impact modeling through the evaluation of the support capacity of the environment in relation to sustainability. The results allowed the creation of alternative scenarios to control the emission of liquid effluents; a monetary valuation of the physical depreciation of the natural capital (i.e. water quality) for each alternative; the definition of an optimal technical-economic level for the selection of the best alternative; and the definition of the fraction of the natural capital depreciation under the responsibility of the stake holders.
