Abstract in Portuguese
Objetivos. A produção crescente de resíduos sólidos inertes nas cidades brasileiras vem aumentando a quantidade de caçambas metálicas acondicionadoras de entulho nas vias públicas. Com o objetivo de identificar situações de risco à saúde pública e ambiental nessa modalidade de acondicionamento, realizou-se uma pesquisa em alguns bairros da cidade de São Paulo, observando resíduos em 40 caçambas estacionadas nas ruas. Metodologia. Empregou-se metodologia de pesquisa qualitativa e observação sistemática de campo com roteiro, registrando situações de risco à saúde pública e ambiental. Resultados. As principais situações de risco identificadas foram: inexistência de tampo protetor; abarrotamento da caçamba; dispersão dos resíduos no ambiente; presença de produtos perigosos, material orgânico e resíduos domiciliares na caçamba; presença de embalagens vazias retendo líquidos, propiciando proliferação de vetores; extravasamento de materiais perfurantes e cortantes; caçamba deteriorada, sem identificação; obstrução da calçada de pedestres; excesso de caçambas na mesma quadra; manuseio de resíduos por transeuntes. Conclusões. Para reduzir os riscos observados no acondicionamento dos resíduos sólidos inertes e melhorar a qualidade de vida urbana, torna-se necessária a abordagem multidisciplinar e sistêmica desses resíduos, integrando-os à gestão ambientalmente adequada dos resíduos sólidos urbanos, à saúde pública e ambiental e à política urbana. Recomenda-se quantificar os resíduos inertes gerados e as caçambas em operação, minimizar os resíduos inertes e implementar a gestão diferenciada. Sugere-se inserir as caçambas no mobiliário urbano e demarcar vagas sinalizadas na via pública, tratando a questão na instância do bairro, mediante referendo participativo da população local - conforme preconizado pela atenção primária ambiental - observados os aspectos normativo-legais.

Abstract in English
Objectives. The increasing production of inert solid wastes in Brazilian cities has been causing an increase in the quantity of metallic curbside skips destined to condition the cities trash. Aiming at identifying situations, within this modality of waste packaging, able to put public and environmental health in jeopardize, some São Paulo city quarters were object of a research, focusing 40 metallic curbside skips stationed in the streets. Methodology. Qualitative research and systematic field observation were the methodologies employed, registering risky conditions to public and environmental health, according to a schedule. Results. The main risky situations identified were: lack of a protective lid; cramming of the metallic curbside skips; waste scattering in the environment; presence of dangerous products, organic material and, domiciliary waste within the metallic curbside skips; presence of empty packages retaining some liquid, propitiating the proliferation of vectors; extravasation of perforative and cutting stuffs; deteriorated metallic curbside skips, with no identification; obstruction of the pedestrians' side-walk; excessive number of metallic curbside skips in the same street block; waste handling on the part of passers-by. Conclusions. In order to reduce the risks observed in the conditioning of inert solid wastes and aiming at getting a better quality of urban life, a systemic and multidisciplinary approach turns out to be a necessary measure. This approach should integrate the management of the inert urban solid wastes to an adequate environmental administration, to public and environmental health and, to urban policy. The Author recommends that the inert solid wastes produced and the metallic curbside skips in operation should be both identified and quantified; also, she recommends the minimization of the inert solid wastes and implementation of a differentiated management. She suggests that the metallic curbside skips should become part of the official urban apparatus and that assigned parking spaces should be properly marked in the streets. The latter is an issue that should be dealt with within the quarters' instances by means of a referendum on the part of the local population - according to what is preconized by the primary environmental care -, observing the normative-lawful aspects.
