RESUMO

This study proposed and tested a methodological path based on technical and scientific principles, seeking to define the limits of a buffer zone for protected areas as well as to structure a specific management program called “Fronteiras” (Boundaries), whose main objective is to set guidelines and strategies to handle issues that concern implementation and management of that zone. Xixová-Japuí State Park (PEXJ), with a total area of 901 hectares and located in São Vicente and Praia Grande, in the state of São Paulo, was chosen as a unit for analysis of the six stages proposed by the methodological path through a case-study methodology coupled with an adaptation of the hierarchical framework method which is based on setting principles, criteria and indicators as tools to promote proper management and maintenance of the park’s functions. Upon completion of the work and assessment of results, a concrete reference was created to aid the discussion and improvement of procedures which may be used in setting the limits of and in managing the buffer zone. It was also possible to verify, among other aspects, that (i) the methodology applied generates consistent standards but must be tested in other protected areas to assure its external validity; (ii) the creation of buffer zones for protected areas that border established or expanding urban areas is a complex issue and must be sped up to anticipate the dynamics and rate of territory occupation; (iii) once the criteria for including or excluding areas have been defined, systematization, consolidation and superposition of information already available combined with that obtained from expedite field surveys are enough to aid towards the definition of the limits of a buffer zone and of guidelines for its management; (iv) the criteria for inclusion and exclusion of areas in demarcating buffer zones as proposed by IBAMA and incorporated to the path tested in this work are adequate to the principles, criteria and indicators defined so that PEXJ can meet its ecological, social and landscape functions.
