Despite of the good time for the country’s ports, the government has decided to close the State Maranhão Dock Company (Codomar), responsible for the Port of Manaus management. Last week, the Ministry of Transport included the company on the National Privatization Council (CND), a bureaucratic step to liquidate the company with social capital of BRL 191 million.
The government announced two years ago that it would renovate the state company which would have a new name: Empresa Brasileira de Hidrovias. Last Friday, though notification, the ministry informed that the decision to close Codomar is a result of administrative reorganization of the National Department of Transport Infrastructure (Dnit), which had concluded that the activities of the company should be closed due to the incorporation of its attributions by Dnit.
