The text outlines an exceptional and temporary framework to address the effects of an emergency in the transportation sector. Its main measures are: Contracting and infrastructure: Allows for the authorization of additional works under concessions and public-private partnerships (PPPs) when they are directly related to the emergency, provided there is technical justification, oversight, and separate financing.
Use of Private Assets: Authorizes the temporary use of private machinery, equipment, and infrastructure, with financial compensation calculated based on market rates and paid within thirty days of the submission of supporting documentation.
Regional Airports: Allows Aerocivil to exceptionally intervene at affected regional airports, without transferring ownership or permanent authority.
Procedures: Streamlines licenses, permits, and authorizations, while maintaining environmental obligations, the protection of special areas, and prior consultation where required.
Permits and deadlines: Provides for automatic extensions of certain administrative permits and the temporary suspension of certain penalty, administrative, and collection deadlines.
Mass transit: Allows for the co-financing of up to 70% of the operating deficit directly caused by the earthquake and the rehabilitation of affected infrastructure, without covering prior deficits or structural problems.
Transportation companies: Temporarily relaxes requirements regarding operating permits, transport capacity, routes, schedules, dispatching, reporting, and business collaboration agreements.
Logistics and traffic: This measure allows for the prioritization of strategic goods at ports and the temporary relocation of the headquarters of affected traffic agencies.
Road safety: This measure authorizes signage, traffic channeling, speed control, and other preventive measures on affected roads, detours, and alternate routes.
