Social and enviromental programsIn respect to the jobs created in the region, in 2012, 77% of the 9.000 workers employed

by Odebrecht on the construction of the UFEM and the EBN dwelt at Itaguaí.Of the social programs established in the region, the Acreditar (Believe) is a Odebrecht

program that already took place all over Brazil, and in foreign countries also, promoting technical qualification among workers. In Itaguai since 2010 in partnership with the Brazilian Navy, its goal it's to qualify the local work force and direct it to implementation (2010 thorugh 2014) and operation (2015 thorugh 2020) of the workmanship and projects related to the Programa de Deselvolvimento de Submarinos (Program for Submarine Development).

The Acreditar graduated 500 workers in three years, of whom about half was employed into the project. There is no obligatoriness of employment of the students graduated by the program into Prosub-EBN, but those who are have been accompanied in their professional life inside the project, as a form of continuity of the instruction given at the course, and tend to be promoted if they succeed. The estimation is that 80% of the civil work force on the phase of implementation is local and 20% from outside the town. That percentage changes on the phase of operation, when it will be demanded specialized workers and it is expected that only 10% of the employment will be local, which possibly puts the Acreditar program in the background. Still 700 students are being instructed by the program.

Another social program established outside and inside the country affecting the region is the Caia na Rede, not demanded on the PBA, this program aims to freely promote the digital inclusion of the dwellers of Madeira Isle. A partnership between Odebrecht, Dell and Microsoft that already graduated 25 classes and 201 people. Which generally are women, old-aged people, and the wives of fishermen. Moreover, the course Inglês num Clique (English in one Click) is a partnership with Senai which teaches the language on the Isle since 2012 to students above 12 years old.

In regard to the administration of the establishment of these programs, they are not unique to Itaguaí, the CNO already has the advantage of having the experience of implementation of these thoughout and outside the country, even with the requirements and supervision of the Brazilian Navy, the conversion of initiative into implementation is made easier with the partnership of actors initially alien to the Prosub-EBN project, as the afore mentioned Dell, Microsoft, Senai etc.

The clear aim of these interventions is to mobilize the local work force, to comply to the PBA resolutions, and to satisfy some of the fishermen and local dwellers demands. One could conclude that, given the presence of the three courses in the life of the whole local community, namely: the Acreditar captivating mostly men, the Caia na Rede targeting women and fishermen wives, and the Inglês num Clique being aimed at youngsters. There would seem to have a insertion of the CNO in the everyday life of local families and, one could say, an attempt to cause a good impression of the Prosub-EBN by the CNO and the Brazilian Navy.

In this manner, the aim of technical qualification and local labourite mobilization would have being achieved, given the direct results of the afore mentioned programs. And the possible hidden agenda of social influence of the CNO would also have being well succeeded as direct secondary result of the programs.

Passing on to an exclusively Navy project, the "Moço de Convés" (deck boy, shipman) course offered by it is part of the APLIM and APLAIM demands of insertion of local fishermen into the undertakings being held. The course qualifys aquaviarian professionals to exert several activities on mercantile vessels. This intervention is a response to the claims that the Prosub-EBN project would deprive artisan fishermen of their sustenance and their families', which have existed for generations on the region, due to the decrease of fishing areas and turmoil caused by

the project on the local ecosystem. However, there is complaint that the course doesn't attend to their demands due to high competition and high formation demanded to candidates, which the local fishermen couldn't meet due to their poor degree of scholarship.

On the other hand, other exigencies were met, like the donation of ships to the artesan fishermen, the incentive to the qualification of these professionals and the incentive to fishing and tourism on the region, which would have being harmed by the new operations.

Concerning enviromental programs, more than 49exist to meet the IBAMA demands, divided into Enviromental Monitoring Programs and Enviromental Quality Programs. These aim to reduce the negative impacts of the operations and to identify risks to the enviroment. Among these efforts, on the Enviromental Monitoring Programs, is the analysis of water quality, measuring data such as temperature, pH, quantity of oils etc. Also the monitoring of sea currents, if they change due to the impact of the operations and if that affects the local sea life. The monitoring of aquatic biota, and of the terrestrial fauna. There is also the analysis of Submarine Antropic Noises, given the presence of grey boutos on the region.

Among the Enviromental Quality Programs there are actions to analyse the water in the dredge areas. Actions to monitor and control the processes of erosion. Actions to control pollution agents expelled by the operations above the tolerated amount. There also must be mentioned the discovery and removal, by these initiatives, of 330 thousand cubic metters of material contaminated by heavy metals from the bottom of Sepetiba Bay. Currently the levels of Cadmium, Zinc, Lead, Copper, and Nikel are within the tolareted amount, and the water quality after dredge operations remains outside risks.

These programs are continual and their estimations depend on reports of varied periodicy, which especify the activities taken. Moreover, the operations on Madeira Isle try to employ alternate forms of energy and recycling of solid material deriving from their actions.
