Cemig Biodiversity Report - 2016 Page 1
Cemig in its 64 years has established itself as a nationally and internationally recognized
company becoming a reference in the electricity sector, in all its areas.
Cemig is reference in quality for the whole society, including the environmental and the
sustainability spheres. Cemig is pioneer and has a robust portfolio of achievements, which
make it one of the leaders worldwide, as evidenced by their presence for 17 consecutive years
in e Dow Jones Sustainability Index and for 12 consecutive years in Corporate Sustainability
Index - ISE/BM&Bovespa.
Even before environmental legislation was implemented in Brazil, Cemig was already
developing actions related to environmental and biodiversity protection. Wildlife rescue
projects when filling the reservoir, and voluntary implementation of conservation units, like
Peti, are some of these actions. Peti Conservation Unit is a place whereseveral environmental
studies have been developed together with researchers from different institutions and that
contributed to generate basis of knowledge that today is used in environmental licensing
process.
Cemig is one of the largest generators of environmental scientific knowledge in their area of
expertise. When preparing environmental studies required by licensing, always in partnership
with educational and research institutions and specialized companies, Cemig studies the
environment in their social, physical and biotic aspects, providing the whole society valuable
information about the world where we live.
When deploying conservation units, we protect important ecosystems and preserve local
biodiversity.
When developing the various actions and environmental programs, as well as restore and
conserve ecosystems, we improve local and regional environmental conditions.
And, when working these issues in interaction with all interested social groups, we practice
citizenship.

1. Introduction
The forests that cover the riverbanks and their springs are given the popular name of
riparian forests, also known as riparian woodland. In Brazil, the riparian forests are
present in all biomes: Cerrado, Atlantic Forest, Caatinga, Amazon forest, Pantanal and
Pampas. Therefore, one can imagine the immense diversity of plants and animals that
make up such riparian forests in the different biomes (Kuntschik et al., 2014).
The formation of large reservoirs from hydroelectric power plants, creates a large
perimeter usually lacking forest formations. When the forest is present usually, it is
composed by species adapted to a drier environment and therefore poorly adapted to
high soil moisture due to the elevation of the water table level and fluctuations of the
reservoir level (Botelho, 1995). This new environment conformation creates the need
for deployment, recovery and conservation of riparian forests surrounding the
reservoirs for maintenance of ecological processes.
For nearly 30 years, Cemig has been
developing, in partnership
with higher education
institutions, several studies that have
supported the implementation of
Riparian Reforestation Program
surrounding its reservoirs. The first studies
in this direction were developed under
CEMIG/UFLA/FAEPE agreement and primarily
dealt with the implementation of techniques for riparian forest recovery projects, as
well as the behavior of different species used (Davide et al., 1991; Davide, Scolforo &
Faria, 1993 a; b; c; d; Davide et al., 1993; Davide, Faria & Prado, 1994; Davide, 1994;
Faria, Davide & Botelho, 1994).
Since its origin, the Riparian Reforestation Program was based on the development of
studies in the Research and Development (R&D) Program of Cemig. The R&D programs
aim to encourage the constant search for innovations and meet the technological
Riparian forests are an important source
for the supply of groundwater due to its
role in facilitating water infiltration into
the soil. This relationship is also reflected
in the flow rate of the springs, since this
depends on the fluctuations in the
volume of the water table. (Kuntschik, et
al., 2014)
Cemig Biodiversity Report - 2016 Page 3
challenges of the electricity sector. In this context, Law No. 9.991, of July/2000
establishes that power distribution, generation and transmission concessionaires and
licensees apply annually part of their net operating revenue in Research and
Development (R&D) Program of the Electric Energy Sector, regulated by the Brazilian
National Electric Energy Agency (Aneel). The R&D 484 developed in partnership with
the Federal University of Ouro Preto – UFOP, evaluates the effectiveness and
sustainability of riparian forest of Volta Grande Reservoir in the conservation of
ecological processes and biodiversity. The R&D 456, in partnership with the Federal
University of Lavras - UFLA, is developing a "Phytogeographic model as a basis for
revitalization of areas of permanent preservation the Rio Grande Basin." Results from
those R&D projects, published in papers and congress proceedings, are listed in the
item “Bibliography” at the end of this Report.
The establishment or restoration of riparian forests requires the use of appropriate
techniques to be defined according to detailed evaluation of site conditions. This
evaluation depends on species selection, soil preparation methods, liming, fertilizing,
planting techniques, maintenance and management of vegetation.
In order to do it, first we will address a legal issue, the Brazil’s new Forest Code, which
states the recovery of riparian forests in the country.
2 Legal aspects
The Brazilian law has different rules and regulations that aims to discipline the human
action and recovery of areas that must be permanent preserved, called Permanent
Preservation Areas – APPs,, such as riparian forests.
The New Brazilian Forest Code (Law No. 12.651) was approved on 05/25/2012 and
replaces the previous one (Law No. 4.771), which dated from 1965. The Law No.
12.651 provides guidance for protection of native vegetation and defines, in its Article
3, that APP is all protected area, whether covered by native vegetation or not, with
environmental function of preserving water resources, landscape, geological and
Cemig Biodiversity Report - 2016 Page 4
biodiversity stability, facilitate gene flow of fauna and flora, soil protection and ensure
the well-being of human populations.
For the purposes of this Law, Art. 4 considers APP in rural or urban areas::
I - the marginal stretchs of any natural perennial and intermittent watercourse,
ephemeral excluded, from the edge of the regular bed rail, in minimum width of:
a) 30 (thirty) meters for watercourses of less than 10 (ten) meters wide;
b) 50 (fifty) meters for watercourses that have 10 (ten) to 50
(fifty) meters wide;
c) 100 (one hundred) meters for
watercourses that have 50
(fifty) to 200 (two hundred) meters
wide;
d) 200 (two hundred) meters for
watercourses that have 200 (two hundred)
to 600 (six hundred) meters wide;
e) 500 (five hundred) meters for watercourses that have width greater than 600
(six hundred) meters;
II - the areas surrounding the lakes and natural ponds in stretch with a minimum width
of:
a) 100 (one hundred) meters in rural areas, except for the water body with up to
20 (twenty) hectares of surface, whose marginal stretch is 50 (fifty) meters;
b) 30 (thirty) meters, in urban areas;
III - the areas around the artificial water reservoirs resulting from damming of natural
watercourses in the stretch defined in the environmental license of the enterprise; (...).
Following the precepts of the Federal Law, it was approved in Minas Gerais, in 2013
the new Forestry Law of Minas Gerais (Law No. 20.922), replacing the previous one
that dated back to the year 2002 (Law No. 14.309). In its Article 8, Law No. 20.922
Riparian forests are, together,
classified as any vegetation
that occupies the banks of
water bodies. (Antonini, Yasmine et
al., 2016)
Cemig Biodiversity Report - 2016 Page 5
considers APP area, whether covered by native vegetation or not, with the
environmental function of preserving water resources, landscape, geological and
biodiversity stability, facilitate gene flow of fauna and flora, protect soil and ensure the
well-being of human populations. A description of these areas is presented in Article 9
and has followed most of definitions of Law No. 12.651/2012.
Article 9 For the purposes of this Law, in rural or urban areas, are APPs:
I - the marginal stretchs of natural perennial and intermittent watercourse, ephemeral
excluded, measured from the edge of the regular bed rail, in minimum width of:
a) 30 (thirty) meters for watercourses of less than 10 (ten) meters wide;
b) 50 (fifty) meters for watercourses from 10 (ten) to 50 (fifty) meters wide;
c) 100 (one hundred) meters for watercourses from 50 (fifty) meters to 200 (two
hundred) meters wide;
d) 200 (two hundred) meters for watercourses from 200 (two hundred) to 600 (six
hundred) meters wide;
e) 500 (five hundred) meters for watercourses of more than 600 (six hundred)
meters;
II - the areas surrounding the lakes and natural ponds in protection range with a
minimum width of:
a) 30 (thirty) meters in urban areas;
b) 50 (fifty) meters in rural areas whose water body is less than 20 (twenty)
hectares of surface;
c) 100 (one hundred) meters in rural areas whose water body greater than 20
(twenty) hectares of surface;
III - the areas surrounding the artificial water reservoirs resulting from damming of
natural watercourses, within protection range defined in the environmental license of
the enterprise;
IV - the areas around the springs and perennial water springs, the minimum radius of
50 (fifty) meters; (...).
Cemig Biodiversity Report - 2016 Page 6
In order to direct the permanent preservation areas recovery projects, CONAMA
approved on February 28, 2011, Resolution No. 429, which provides guidance for
recovery methodology of APPs.
In recent years there has been an update in the legislation regarding this issue mainly
with focus on reducing vegetation loss in the states and municipalities and on
performing the recovery of permanent preservation areas, especially riparian forests.
However, the full implementation of these legal provisions often face social issues,
especially when springs and watercourses are located in small properties. In many
cases, the properties are located in areas of poor soils and at high risk of degradation,
and the owners cannot afford to implement a process for recovery of riparian
vegetation (Santos et al., 2008).
Riparian forests are very
important for maintaining the
quality of water bodies.

3. Riparian reforestation in Volta Grande Reservoir
3.1 History - the beginning of everything
The riparian forests of rGrande river have changed long before the implementation of
the reservoir of Volta Grande
Hydroeletric Power Plant (HPP), since
there were no specific laws providing for
the preservation of these ecosystems.
Even before the deployment of the
reservoir, the riparian forests were
already under the impact of agriculture,
leaving few remaining natural areas.
With Law No. 4.771, from 1965, in force at the time of Volta Grande HPP construction ,
the forests around lakes, ponds or natural or artificial reservoirs wererecognized as
permanent preservation areas. Although this law does not specify the extent of stretch
to be preserved, it contemplated the recovery and compensation by the company that
manages the hydroelectric plant. In compliance with legislation, Cemig, which has the
concession for exploitation of Volta Grande HPP since 1967, began to restore this
ecosystem, along the banks of the reservoir.
Cemig Biodiversity Report - 2016 Page 8
The Cemig Riparian Reforest Program began in 1990, through an agreement with the
Federal University of Lavras - UFLA, and its main objective the generation of
technology in restoration of riparian forests at the reservoir banks. The Riparian
Reforest Program, also aimed containment of erosive processes at the reservoirs
banks, due to waves crashes.
Recovery projects in Volta Grande Reservoir began in 1991 with the prioritization of
the development of technology for production of native seedlings in the nursery of the
plant. The university contributed a lot in the choice and definition of the species that
would best adapt to the conditions of this
reservoir.
Once stage of mastery seedling production
techniques was over, new difficulties were in
acquirong the seeds, since in the region few
matrices were identified for collection. The
solution found at the time was the supply of seeds of native species by the UFLA seed
laboratory. Subsequently, Cemig
implemented a seed laboratory in Belo
Horizonte, guaranteeing the supply and
increasing the annual goals of seedling
production, even varying the genealogy of
the species, since the collection of seeds
was carried out in several regions of Minas
Gerais. In this way, it was also implanted the seedling nursery of Volta Grande HPP,
with excellent infrastructure and sufficient amount of seeds available to start the
challenge of restoring the APPs, along the reservoir.
Cemig Biodiversity Report - 2016 Page 9
From that moment, it was necessary to carry outa work of awareness of the owners of
the lands on the banks of the reservoir,
aiming to involve them in the process and
in the adhesion. For this, several "Field
Days" were held, in which was paramount
the participation of the owners, rural
unions, development and environmental
Agencies and schools in the region.
Two demonstration units of riparian forests (in Água Comprida - MG and Miguelópolis
- SP) were implanted to show the owners the importance and veracity of the project.
In this partnership, Cemig prepared projects, supplied the seedlings and provided
technical assistance, leaving the responsibility for the producers to carry out the
planting and maintenance of the seedlings.
The challenges faced over time
were numerous. Several plantations were impacted by fires and cattle that trampled
and ate the seedlings. However, with great persistence, the obstacles were overcome
and in a few years a green corridor formed along the plant's reservoir in areas where
previously there were agriculture and livestock.
In 25 years of the program, approximately
one million seedlings have been planted,
and today many species already supply
seeds to restore other areas.
Cemig Biodiversity Report - 2016 Page 10
3.2 Characterization of planting areas
The work for recovery of riparian forests developed by Cemig was held on the banks of
Volta Grande Reservoir, in the medium region of Grande river, in the states of Minas
Gerais and São Paulo (Figure 1).
Figure 1 - Location of the Volta Grande HPP reservoir.
The plant area has an average altitude of 510 meters. The predominant soil is of the
eutrophic purple latosol type. This type ofsoil usually has high fertility (Nardy, 1995).
The reforested areas were previously used for planting sugar cane since 1983 and
currently adjacent areas are still used for this purpose (Souza, 2002).
Cemig Biodiversity Report - 2016 Page 11
3.3 Origin of seedlings used
The seedling nursery of the Volta Grande Environmental Station of is the main supplier
of native species seedlings for
application in the Riparian Reforest
Program. This nursery also serves the
Cemig Urban Afforestation Program in
partnership with the municipal
governments of the region, in order to
reconcile the maintenance of the
afforestation with the maintenance of the electricity distribution networks, thus
reducing the risk of accidents and interruptions in the power supply. In some cases,
the nursery provides seedlings to partner owners who wish to recover some area,
which is of mutual interest, that is, both
of Cemig and the owner.
The nursery's production capacity is
450,000 seedlings/year, and now 130
thousand are produced to meet the
riparian reforestation, as well as to urban
afforestation. The technologies used are the production in plastic tubes and plastic
bags, according to the species and size of the seedlings to be produced.
Production in tubes provides better root
formation, reduces the cost of seedlings
and facilitates its planting.. On the other
hand, the production in bags is more
suitable for seed of the species used in
urban afforestation, with larger seedlings
which demands larger root system.
Cemig Biodiversity Report - 2016 Page 12
In order to meet the specifications of the Riparian Reforest Program, native species
were produced by ecological groups, 50% Pioneer, 40% Secondary and 10% Climax.
The main species produced in the Volta Grande nursery , for implementation of the
Program are:
Tamboril (Enterolobium contortisiliquum), Eritrina (Erythrina falcata), Pitanga (Eugenia
uniflora), Genipapo (Genipa americana), Jacaraná-mimoso (Jacaranda mimosifolia), Aroeira
(Lithraea molleoides), Bico-de-pato (Machaerium nictitans), Moreira (Maclura tinctoria), Ingá
(Inga affinis), Jequitibá (Cariniana strellensis), Óleo-de-bálsamo (Myroxylum balsamum),
Peroba (Aspidosperma polyneuron), Ipê-roxo (Tabebuia impetiginosa), Ipê-amarelo (Tabebuia
serratifolia), Óleo-de-copaíba (Copaifera langsdorffii), Angico-vermelho (Anadenanthera
peregrina), Cedro (Cedrela fissilis), Jacarandá-da-Bahia (Dalbergia nigra).
Cemig Biodiversity Report - 2016 Page 13
4 Implementation of the Riparian Reforestation Program
The spacing used in older plantations were 3.0 x 2.0 m, while the younger plantations
were 3.0 x 3.0 m, mainly in quincunx, based on the principles of secondary succession,
using pioneer and climatic species. For all plantations, the initial fertilization consisted
of application of 150 g of 4-14-8 incorporated into the
planting pit. Stretchs of 13.6 to 98.6 m were
used for planting.
In the period from 1992 to 2005, 705,263 (seven
hundred and five thousand, two hundred and sixty-
three) seedlings were planted, in a total of 480.00 ha,
in partnership with landowners aroundthe reservoir.
Quincunx - planting of
vegetable elements (trees,
bushes, etc.) in groups of five,
so as to occupy four corners
of a square and the other the
center of this square.

5 P&D 484
Current status of the establishment of riparian forests in the Volta 5.1
Grande Reservoir
Between the years 2012 and 2016, a R&D project was developed through a
partnership between the Federal University of Ouro Preto - UFOP and Cemig, with the
objective of evaluating the effectiveness and sustainability of riparian areas of Volta
Grande Reservoir, in the conservation of ecological processes and biodiversity (R&D
484).
In this project, narrow (30 m) and wider (100 m) reforestation stretchs were selected
for this study, and the age effect (time after reforestation - 10 and 20 years) was
evaluated in forest characteristics around Volta Grande Reservoir. As a reference, it
was also inventoried an area called "Native", which has no history of environmental
impacts in the last 60 years. Individual trees with chest circumference greater than or
equal to 10 cm were inventoried.

Area 5 - Native Project: Reference area
The composition of the areas was compared to that previously used in the
implementation of reforestation. Inventoried species were also classified according to
i) their successional category
(pioneer/ non-pioneer) as
suggested by Gandolfi (1991)
and Leitão Filho and
collaborators (1993); ii) the
dispersion syndrome, i.e., the
way in which disperse their
fruits or seeds (autochoric,
zoochorous, anemocoric) and
III) as its origin (native or exotic). These studies were based on data available in the
literature and on observations made during field work.
Cemig Biodiversity Report - 2016 Page 16
They identified 136 species grouped into 31 families (Table 2). The family with the
greatest number of species was Leguminosae, with 31, followed by Anacardiaceae (8),
Malvaceae and Sapindaceae (6) and Apocynaceae, Bignoniaceae, Lauraceae, Moraceae
and Myrtaceae with 5 species each. The diversity found is greater than the average
typically found for Cerrado, which is indicative of the benefits of the establishment of
riparian forests in these areas.

(amoreira), Acacia auriculiformis A. Cunn. ex Benth. and Acacia mangium Willd. (both
known as acacia). All of them were planted during the implementation of the
reforestation project. Although so far there is no evidence of disorderly invasion, it is
important to maintain monitoring of the areas in order to investigate any
inappropriate increase of exotic species. These can be extremely harmful to compete
with native species, altering succession processes or even competition for resources. .
Although this survey included only tree species, it was observed that the invasion by
grasses limited the species recruitment in some areas, or even the success of planting,
requiring its control in order to
guarantee the success of
reforestation. Much of the
species has zoochorous
dispersion syndrome (56%),
providing resources for the
regional fauna, which is quite
diverse. In other species,
autochoric and anemocoric syndromes occur (22% each).
Of the 136 species identified, only 52 were planted in reforestation. It was observed
the recruitment of several species, originating from the surrounding forest matrix and,
in particular, Cerrado species.
Currently, the idea of copying a mature forest model in reforestation was abandoned
(Rodrigues et al. 2009). Instead, the goal is to restorate the ecological processes
responsible for the reconstruction of the forest. From the species whose succession
category was identified, more than half (55%) are pioneers, 38% are early secondary
and 7% are late secondary or climax. The presence of species of the later successional
categories demonstrates the effectiveness of reforestation even though it is still
considered quite young.
Cemig Biodiversity Report - 2016 Page 20
It is expected in long-term, if the succession conditions are maintained, the riparian
ecosystems around Volta Grande
Reservoir will evolve towards the
development of more complex and
biodiverse ecosystems. To this end, it
is necessary to maintain the
monitoring, reassessments and
possible interventions to ensure
success predicted in restoration
actions.
According to Antonini (2016), the reforested areas around Volta Grande Reservoir,
despite having not been restored with the specific purpose of recovering biodiversity,
ecological processes and ecosystem services, today have this set of important
elements to its " survival". These areas harbor a relatively high biodiversity, compared
to other fragments in the same region, although the similarity of composition,
structure and dynamics are below what would be considered ideal. Antonini (2016)
also concluded that the results of the studies indicate that the process of restoration of
riparian forests has achieved several benefits. Among them, it may be mentioned the
improvement of the physical environment, erosion control, soil fertility maintenance
and hydrological cycles. Moreover, it is remarkable the increase in plant and fauna
biodiversity, productivity of vegetation and carbon sequestration, bringing direct
benefits to human life.
6 Ecosystem services provided by riparian forests of Volta
Grande Reservoir
Cemig Biodiversity Report - 2016 Page 21
The survival of mankind on the planet depends on his access to renewable and
sufficient sources of water and food and materials that can be processed into fabrics,
medicines, shelter and other buildings and products that provide protection and some
control over the production and exploitation of goods mentioned above. Thinking
about human survival in terms of quality of life, we can say the demand for goods and
services that are offered by natural ecosystems, among which we mention the
pleasant environments for recreation, outdoor sports, meditation and those that
provide interaction between mankind and other organisms, such as birds, flowers,
trees, lichens, etc., whose diversity and beauty fascinates us.
Referring specifically to the riparian forests of Volta Grande Reservoir, we clearly come
across the ecosystem services provided by this environment. There is an intimate
relationship between the quality of human life, the preservation of natural
ecosystems, the supply of
goods and services such as
water and food, and the
need to expand the extent
of forest areas through the
recovery of degraded areas.
In addition to the wood
provided by the forest, it
still provides seeds, fruits,
medicinal plants and ornamentals, fibers and dyes. Moreover, they harbor organisms
that play important roles in maintaining the environment itself. They also perform
other immense influence on climate services, hydrological cycles, biodiversity, water
and air quality and soil fertilization. We call "ecosystem services" this set of benefits
directly or indirectly offered by the functioning of the ecosystems to human
populations (Daily 1997; Costanza et al., 1997; MEA, 2005; Figure 2).
The ecosystem services are organized, in general, into categories of provision of
consumer goods, place for recreational activities, culture and spiritual activities,
Cemig Biodiversity Report - 2016 Page 22
climate control and water, soil and air quality, and consequently, human health and
support, that is functions that maintain the operation of the forest itself, and thus the
basis of all other ecosystem services (MEA, 2005). However, it should be noted that,
the ecosystem services are responsible for maintaining and sustaining life on Earth as a
whole, not just human populations. Good examples of this are the air we breathe and
the water we drink. Seventy percent of the oxygen we breathe comes from oceans
through the photosynthetic process of small algae floating on sea surface.

Cemig Biodiversity Report - 2016 Page 23
Among the numerous ecological services provided by the organisms that inhabit the
forests, we highlight the following:
pollination
dispersion of fruits and seeds
and biological control of species considered pests.
The pollination carried out mainly by bees is extremely important, as well as
guaranteeing the reproduction of plants, also ensures food production, since several
species of native and cultivated plants depend on pollination for fruit production.
Riparian forests of the reservoir of Volta Grande are contributing to the maintenance
of this important environmental service, since they found several species of bees that
pollinate native plants.
Dispersal of fruits and seeds occurs through wind, water and animals called frugivores.
The dispersion is the process of transportation of the seeds away from the mother
plant, reaching places where the possibility of germination and survival are higher, due
to the lower predation and competition pressure. By consuming the fruit, the process
of seeds transportingby animals occurs, once many seeds fall or are defecated or,
regurgitated, and then spread throughout the area used by the animals that consumed
them. This interaction between flora and fauna is the basis for maintenance and
restoration of riparian forests. Although many animals are considered frugivorous,
notably birds and mammals are the most efficient.
A good example of frugivory study and
seed dispersal in reforested riparian
forests developed in Volta Grande
Reservoir demonstrated the importance
of Cecropia (embaúba) as a key species
for maintenance of large numbers of
frugivorous birds in the region (Faria, 2015). The Cecropia is a pioneer species, with
large numbers of individuals in the riparian forests sampled and that produce fruits
Cemig Biodiversity Report - 2016 Page 24
throughout the year. In this study, 34 species of birds were identified consuming the
fruits of Cecropia, being 14 species considered good dispersers of seeds, based on their
behavior of collection and mandibulatation of the infructescences, as well as the high
number of visits with fruit consumption. The sabiá-do-campo (Mimus saturninus), bem-
te-vi (Pitangus sulphuratus) and sanhaço-cinzento (Tangara sayaca) are among the
species with good dispersal capacity.
Riparian forests that were reforested around Volta Grande reservoir also play
important role in ecosystem services related to water quality in the reservoir. The
vegetation coverage of the forest fragments protects the soil against the erosive action
of wind and rain, reducing the transport of soil particles into the reservoir. Meanwhile,
portions with no vegetation theerosion process removed about 1 kg/month of soil in
the wet season. Within the forest fragments, erosion was reduced up to three times
this amount.
The importance of these reforested areas is so great to the reservoir that in areas
where there is no forest, it was possible to identifying a smaller number of planktonic
invertebrates. Zooplankton - animal part of plankton, is a crucial link in the aquatic
food chain. Species forming zooplankton are responsible for microalgae "control" ,
since they feed on them, but are consumed by fish larvae and other invertebrates. In
reforested areas where the riparian forest was present, the number of zooplankton
species was at least 2 times higher than in areas where there was no riparian forest -
pasture, sugarcane and soybeans areas around the reservoir.
According to the results of R&D 484, the riparian forest fragments ofVolta Grande
reservoir now harbor a varied diversity of species, and some fragments high diversity
is observed like in Native area, close to natural areas. On the other hand, other
fragments have very low diversity, like Delta and Figueira. This indicates the need for
studies and monitoring of these areas, to follow the succession process and
performing interferences such as enrichment of some functional group or suppression
of exotic species when needed.
Regarding terrestrial fauna, the R&D classified the species into eighteen functional
groups (Table 3). The species richness in each functional group can be considered high
Cemig Biodiversity Report - 2016 Page 25
for recent reforestation. It is important to note that the categories include vertebrates
and invertebrate species, which may be playing the same role in ecosystems, but with
different strategies. In the "carnivore" category, it was included large mammals, such
as jaguar, but also spiders. Both groups are predators, regulating the population of
their prey. Also in this category are the wasps that are predators of insects considered
agricultural pests. In “frugivorous” category, the richness was also high. In this
category, there are many species of birds that feed on the fruits, and contributes to
seed dispersion.

With respect to the aquatic ecosystem, it was observed during the studies that, only in
areas where there was the presence of riparian forests in Volta Grande, that all
functional characteristics were in “equilibrium”,. Species such as the rotifers
Brachionus angular, Brachionus calyciflorus, and microcrustaceans Alonna affinis,
Chydorus specious, among others, representing microphages and scrapers, were
abundant in areas where riparian vegetation was present. In contrast, in areas of the
reservoir where there was suppression of riparian vegetation, the functional diversity
Cemig Biodiversity Report - 2016 Page 26
of zooplankton was low, only small microphages were found, those capable of filtering
small amounts of water. The study of functional diversity, whether in the terrestrial
environment or in the aquatic environment, is a powerful tool for evaluating the
effectiveness of recovery of degraded areas.
Cemig Biodiversity Report - 2016 Page 27
7 Conclusion
Considering the primary objective of the R&D 484, which was to evaluate the
effectiveness and sustainability of riparian areas of Volta Grande Reservoir in the
conservation of ecological processes and biodiversity, we can say that:
the reforested areas around the reservoir, although they were not reforested
for the specific purpose of recovering biodiversity, today, ecological processes
and ecosystem services present today a set of important elements for their
"survival" and longevity;
these areas harbor a relatively high biodiversity, compared to other fragments
in the same region, although the similarity of composition, structure and
dynamics are below what would be considered ideal;
the process of recovery of riparian forests has achieved several benefits, among
them we include: erosion control, maintenance of soil fertility and hydrological
cycles;
it is remarkable the increase in plant and fauna biodiversity, vegetation
productivity and carbon sequestration, which brings direct benefits to human
life;
some areas need some intervention, as they are following exactly the opposite
way to what was intended, not being self-sustainability;
for flora and fauna, in general, two fields - Delta and Figueira, specifically, have
very poor community and some dominant species, which means that the
number of individuals of one or two species is much higher than others. This
shows a tendency for homogenization and biotic impoverishment. In this case,
dominance of one species may occur in short term, causing others not to
remain in the area;
the presence of a greater number of fauna species can be considered an
important tool for conservation and restoration of riparian forest fragments
due to ecosystem services provided by these animals,
Cemig Biodiversity Report - 2016 Page 28
studies showed that several species of birds, mammals and invertebrates such
as ants and beetles act as dispersers of fruits and seeds and as decomposers,
contributing to the enrichment of flora.
Moreover, the studies also recommend for future riparian reforestation:
continuous reforestation of the surroundings of water body, thereby increasing
the efficiency of this fragment as an ecological corridor;
planting stretchs greater than 30 meters width, to reduce edge effect, which
creates differentiated areas in the edge and interior, contributing to a greater
diversity of environments
keep the connectivity with native forest and remaining riparian forests, to allow
the connection of the reforested areas with environments that can act as a
source of typical species of riparian forest.
Studies carried out in the R&D 484 showed that the "Cemig Riparian Reforest
Program" was very successful. However, in order to become self-sustaining in the long
term, it is necessary constant monitoring and partnership with the community
surrounding the reservoir, thus facilitating the implementation of the
recommendations listed above.
