Brasilia – The deputy prosecutor of the public service Court of Auditors of the Union (MPTCU), Lucas Rocha Furdo, presented on Tuesday 2, a representation to request the suspension of the auction Santos-Guardscheduled for this Friday, 5. According to the Estadão/TransmissionThe request must be rejected.

The MPTCU document was sent to Minister Bruno Dantas, a rapporteur of the case at the Court of Auditors. In the representation, theftoDo suggests the possibility of expanding the deadline to receive proposals, trying to guarantee greater competition. The delivery of the envelopes was held yesterday, with the Confirmation of two participants, both foreigners.



The sub -prosecutor claims that the TCU opened an investigation into the alleged favoritism of the National Bank for Economic and Social Development (Budes) to foreign groups from more access to funding. This accusation is found in the matter of Folha de S. Paulohaving been based on the request of theft.

Wanted by the report, Budes did not comment.

TO Estadão/TransmissionThe sub -prorosecutor claims to have observed with great concern the registration of complaints by the Brazilian companies initially interested in the dispute, but has given up on the relative difficulties in obtaining funding. “I asked the TCU secretariat to examine. If the technicians were approved for further deadlines, it would be a victory,” he says.

A minister consulted by the Report states that the request could receive a technical opinion on Wednesday 3. He said that the document must have more robust facts than those already reverberated by the press, as they are interpreted as subjective and misalignments with the standard financing policy of BDES.

Project

The Santos-Guerujá tunnel is the largest project of the new PAC, with forecasts of $ 6.8 billion of investments, of which 5.1 billion dollars will come from public contributions divided equally between the union and the state of St. Paul.

Currently, over 21,000 vehicles cross the two margins daily using ferries and catrane, as well as 7,700 cyclists and 7,600 pedestrians. With the new structure, the intersection will be carried out in a few minutes, reducing the queues and optimizing the logistical flow of the port of Santos.

The entire structure will be 1.5 kilometers long, being immersed 870 meters. There will be three direction lanes, with one for the passage of the light vehicle on the rails (VLT). The tunnel will also have access to pedestrians and crossing cyclists. The forecast is that the works started by the end of the year.
