From the 1988 Federal Constitution, is the institutionalization of legal mechanisms that ensure citizen participation in their community and state policies. Participation also finds shelter as a guiding principle of environmental law and of democracy itself. The prospect of Social Participation is understood as an instrument of governance that seeks shared development in democratic processes between government and popular sectors in the context of public policy. In 2000, the Law of the National System of Conservation of Nature (SNUC) established the Environmental Compensation and financial resources to support the creation and improvement of the quality of the Conservation Units (UC) of the Environmental Permitting phase, in line with the Polluter Pays Principle. In the state of Pará, in 2007, the state Department of Environment (SEMA/PA) creates the Environmental Clearinghouse of Pará (CCA/PA), a deliberative, aiming to analyze, manage and proposes to apply the financial resources of the Environmental Compensation. This research aims to analyze the Social Participation in the construction, implementation and monitoring of policy that treats the Environmental Compensation Law SNUC in state politics. The methodology was based on exploratory study, document analysis and interviews with environmental managers, representatives of CCP/PA managers and members of the Councils of Conservation State Park Utinga (PEUt) and the Environmental Protection Area of Island Combu (APA Combu), including representatives of the local community and around these protected spaces. The collegiate PEUt and the APA have Combu performance parity in number of representatives of government and civil society organizations being awarded the Environmental Compensation Resources, which seeks to analyze the processes of planning and decision-making on resource management Environmental Compensation scenario in the state.
