Development of management Tool for Water Risk Assessment ( FARH ) : application in the mineral metalurgical segment in Brazil Desenvolvimento de Ferramenta de Gestão para Avaliação de Risco Hídrico ( FARH ) : aplicação no segmento minero metalúrgico no Brasil

Although water governance in the industrial sector has evolved in recent years, water risk management is still considered a challenge in the country. In this way, the present article had the objective of developing a Management Tool for Water Risk Assessment (FARH) in the mining-metallurgical segment. The structural format of the FARH was based on input blocks, processing and data output with the purpose of elaborating a risk matrix (dashboard). The dashboard based on the characterization of the situation of the river basin in relation to the degree of water stress (Y axis), characterization of the water management status of the enterprise (X axis) and the definition of the level of dependence in relation to the water resource. The tool was applied on a pilot scale in 09 (nine) mining-metallurgical enterprises located in the States of Minas Gerais, Goiás and São Paulo (Zn, Ni, Al). With the validation of the FARH criteria, the data platforms were inserted in “macro excel” to computerize their application. The risk matrix allowed the consolidated visualization of the data and provided a technical basis for the prioritization of actions, allocation of resources within an organization and preparation of a guide for the development of the water management plan of these enterprises.


INTRODUCTION
In recent years, as organizations have come under increasing pressure to reduce uncertainties, the need to manage risks, including those of environmental nature, has come to be recognized as an essential element of good corporate governance practice (IBGC, 2007).
The permanent water availability is not clear and as the value chains have been expanding globally, the evaluation of the water risk remains a business challenge, even in places with a history of water abundance (MUELLER et al., 2015).
The water crisis associated with scarcity and lack of access to potable water is considered by the World Economic Forum as the greatest risk that humanity will face in the next decade (WEF, 2015), in this way the water risk management by enterprises dependent on this source has been considered by the industrial sector as a challenge (CEBDS, 2015).
Extreme climatic events (e.g.floods and water scarcity) and the level of maturity of the institutions involved make water risk management still a complex, adaptive and costly process.In this sense, environmental risk management tools, including those for water risk management, have become increasingly essential instruments for the characterization and reduction of potential risks associated with industrial operations.
It is important to emphasize that, although there are referenced instruments for water risk assessment (WBCSD Global Water Tool -GWT, WRI Aqueduct Toll, WWF/DEG Water Risk Filter -WWF), the tools available only provide for initial assessments that needed to be deepened for the preparation of short, medium and long term action plans.In order to be able to identify the risks it is necessary to know the local conditions, but the database available in these tools does not allow this evaluation, either by the dearth of data or by the lack of data in the scale required for this analysis (CEBDS, 2015).Mueller et al. (2015), in the search for tools capable of mapping the water risk of ventures in the automobile segment, applied the main available mechanisms (WBCSD Global Water Tool -GWT, WRI Aqueduct Toll, WWF/ DEG Water Risk Filter -WWF) in 09 (nine) enterprises distributed among India, China, Mexico, Spain, the United States and Brazil.Figure 1 shows the results obtained.
It is observed that the results obtained between the tools presented great variability when compared to each other, demonstrating that the regional specificities that are not considered in global tools generate interference in the final evaluation.Within this context, when there is a need for detailing factors in a specific segment, such as the miner-metallurgical, the tools available are even more superficial, since they do not allow the insertion of peculiarities of these operations.
According to Bichueti et al. (2014), the management of water use is one of the greatest challenges for the safe and economic development of the mining-metallurgical segment, being considered a duality that varies from resource extremely necessary in diverse activities and processes, to the origin of many concerns.
Mining is probably one of the main water users in Brazil, which has the greatest technical peculiarities, ranging from complex projects, requiring areas for the storage of tailings and / or demand for mine dewatering, to projects with small degree of primary processing, such as concentration, separation or washing of ore (ANA, 2006).In addition to it, its location, as a rule, is intrinsically linked to the availability of the mineral resource, which does not allow locational choice.
There are several potential problems associated with water in mining and metallurgy, such as the formation of acid drainage, groundwater pollution due to improper disposal of tailings, discharge of mine water into surface water and competition for water by other industries and local community (DANOUCARAS et al., 2014).
In this way, the objective of this article was to present the development of a Management Tool for Water Hazard Assessment (FARH) for application in mining and metallurgical units in Brazil, as a way of assessing the situation of water vulnerability of these enterprises, reducing subjectivity through a tool that translates technical language into a management tool.

General aspects related to risk management
The analysis of risks and process hazards comprise the environmental risk management of an organization and is considered as a key item to ensure the success of the security projects and operation of a system in plants of process and other facilities (DUNJÓ et al., 2010).Sanchez (2013) defines danger as a situation or condition that has the potential to lead to undesirable consequences, while risk is conceptualized as the contextualization of a situation of Bissacot and Oliveira danger, that is, the possibility of materialization of an undesired event occurs.So risk, as defined by the Society for Risk Analysis, is the potential for unwanted outcomes in human life, in the environment, or in material possessions.Risk can be defined more formally as a product of the probability of occurrence of a given event, by the magnitude (severity) of its consequences.
According to Tixier et al. (2002) the methodologies used for the risk assessment can be classified in qualitative, semi-quantitative and quantitative methodologies.The degree of detail required will particularly depend on the application of the availability of reliable data, and of the decision-making needs of the organization.Some methods and the degree of detail of the analysis may be prescribed by legislation (ABNT, 2012).
The qualitative assessment defines the consequence, probability and level of risk by levels of significance such as high, medium and low, being able to combine severity x probability and evaluate the resulting level or scale of risk in comparison with the qualitative criteria.
Semi-quantitative methods use numerical scales for consequence and probability and combine them to produce a level of risk using an equation.The scales may be linear or logarithmic, or they may have some other relation.
The quantitative analysis estimates practical values for consequences and their probabilities, and produces values of the level or scale of risk in specific units defined when the context was developed.
In a review of 62 methods of process risk analysis including some with nature and/ or environmental criteria used in industrial plants Tixier et al. (2002) have identified that qualitative methods are the most used for risk assessments involving several general aspects.Quantitative methods are developed for situations where there is a need to evaluate some specific aspect.
Tixier et al. ( 2002) also summarized the limitations of the main methods of risk analysis used in industrial units: • The more general the methodology is, the less applicable for specific cases the methodology is, and the more specific, the less applicable for transposition in other situations; • The technical knowledge of the people participating in the risk analysis is extremely important because the classification of risk severity is carried out subjectively and thus, all analysis is susceptible to human factors; • The complexity of methods that are not automated requires additional efforts and specific training for their implementation.
According to Purdy (2010), until the publication of ISO 31.000: 2009(ABNT, 2009), people who worked with risk management had different elements, processes and even definitions about the most appropriate strategy for risk assessment of their organizations.
Thus, although AS/NZS 4.360: 1999 (STANDARDS AUSTRALIA; STANDARDS NEW ZEALAND, 2004) had been the first risk management standard elaborated in the world, the ISO 31.000:2009(ABNT, 2009), which was based on the review in 2004 of AS/NZS 4360 (STANDARDS AUSTRALIA; STANDARDS NEW ZEALAND, 2004), is currently the international reference standard for risk management, including environmental risks.
The publication of ABNT NBR ISO 31.000(ABNT, 2009) was fundamental for the implementation of the following aspects in the scope of risk management: i) Standardization of a targeted vocabulary; ii) Establishment of performance criteria; iii) Definition of a common global process for the identification, analysis, evaluation and treatment of risks; iv) Presentation of a guide to the decision-making process in any organization (PURDY, 2010).
In a complementary way, ISO 3.010 (ABNT, 2012) presents the guidelines for choosing the techniques for the available risk assessment process.According to the standard, the process includes the identification, analysis and evaluation of risks, as indicated in Figure 2.
The way this process is performed depends not only on the context of the risk management process, but also on the methods and techniques used to conduct the process.According to the standard, the process includes identifying the causes and sources of risk, events, situations or circumstances that could have a material impact on the objectives and nature of this impact.Risk identification methods may include: • Evidence-based methods, examples such as checklists and critical analysis of historical data; • Systematic approaches where a team of experts follows a process to identify risks through a structured set of instructions or questions; • Techniques of inductive reasoning such as FMEA (GARGAMA; CHATURVEDI, 2011) and support techniques to improve accuracy in risk identification, with emphasis on brainstorming (ABNT, 2012), Delphi method and checklist (ABNT 2012).
Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) was initially developed as a formal methodology in 1960 by the aerospace industry with the goal of assessing safety and reliability risks.Since then, the Development of management Tool for Water Risk Assessment (FARH): application in the mineral metalurgical segment in Brazil method has been used by a wide range of industries, including automotive, nuclear, biomedical, among others (GARGAMA; CHATURVEDI, 2011).
Within environmental risk assessment in Brazil, the FMEA analysis has been used to identify the risks that need to be prioritized in order to comply with environmental legislation, corporate requirements and obtain environmental certifications, such as the ABNT NBR ISO 14.001 (NOGUEIRA et al., 2011;ZAMBRANO;MARTINS, 2007).
Brainstorming is used to stimulate and encourage the free flow of conversation between a group of people who are knowledgeable about the topic or the process to identify the associated hazards and risks and the criteria for decisions.It can be used in conjunction with other methods for the risk assessment process, and it may be carried out in a formal or informal manner (ABNT, 2012).
The Delphi method is a procedure used to obtain a reliable consensus of opinions from a group of experts.It can be applied at any stage of the risk management process whenever a consensus of expert views is needed.The work procedure is performed by sending a semi-structured questionnaire to a group of specialists with rounds of feedback until there is a consensus on the evaluations (ABNT, 2012).
The checklist consists of the list of hazards, risks or control failures that were normally developed from the experiment as a result of a previous risk assessment process.The work is performed through the application of the checklist and evaluation of the critical analysis of the items that compose it (ABNT, 2012).
It should be noted that, regardless of the method chosen, the risk assessment process of an enterprise must be capable of evaluating the process in a macro form, and of developing tools to evaluate specific items that are identified as strategic for the company's planning, as water risk assessment.

General aspects related to risk management in the mining-metallurgical segment
During the last decades, the mining industry has acknowledged the importance of water for itself and for others (WOODLEY et al., 2013).While water scarcity is a global certainty, predicting the scale, nature and location of associated risks is still a challenge (ORR et al., 2009).
In this context, the risks associated with water scarcity can be classified into three categories: (i) the risk of insufficient resources to meet the basic needs of people and industries; (ii) risks associated with the implementation of charging for use, energy price rise, loss of competitiveness, political and economic instability and population migration; and (iii) risks of inadequate management based on lack of knowledge in short-and long-term.
Water risk can still be divided into four categories: (i) physical risks, (ii) financial risks, (iii) regulatory risks, and (iv) risks related to the company's image, and, therefore, organizations now consider water management as a key business issue and not simply as a matter of compliance or corporate social responsibility (ORR et al., 2011).
In this sense, water risk assessment tools have been developed with the purpose of identifying the vulnerabilities associated to the water resource in the places of installation and operation of industrial units.

Water accounting
Among the aspects related to water risk management, water accounting is considered an essential factor for the evaluation of water availability versus water demand of the enterprises (FONSECA et al., 2013;DANOUCARAS et al., 2014).
In this sense the use of a water accounting tool, such as the Water Accounting Framework -WAF, developed by the Australian Mining Council (MCA) in 2012 (COTE; MORAN, 2009;WOODLEY et al., 2013;DANOUCARAS et al., 2013;SMI;MCA, 2014) and its adaptations (BISSACOT, 2016), is presented as an adequate methodology for the elaboration of the water balance.
Figure 3 shows an example of how the operational flow is represented in the methodology.Within the presented flowchart, the percentage of reuse would be obtained by the sum of all the flow streams of processes to process divided by the sum of all the flows that enter processes.

METHODOLOGY
The structural formatting of the FARH was carried out based on the definitions of ABNT NBR ISO 31.000(ABNT, 2009), which establishes the criteria for risk assessment.
Based on the technical criteria listed by ABNT NBR ISO 31.010(ABNT, 2012), the tool was structured in: i) Criteria for risk identification (Data entry); ii) Criteria for risk analysis (Processing); and iii) Criteria for risk assessment (Data output).
Figure 4 shows the operation flowchart and Table 1 shows the objectives and actions of each step.
The basis for the development of FARH was based on the precepts of semi-quantitative methodology (ABNT, 2012), whose final objective was to consolidate results into a risk matrix (dashboard) based on three (3) axes, to know: • Y axis, which represents the situation of the river basin in relation to the degree of water stress and whose technical criteria are described in the next subitems.This axis, in a correlation with a corporate risk matrix elaborated in general scope, would correspond to the evaluation of the severity of the scenario/event.
• X axis, which represents the water management status of the enterprise and whose technical criteria are described in the next subitems.This axis, in a correlation with a corporate risk matrix elaborated in general scope, would correspond to the evaluation of the probability of the scenario/event.• Z axis, which represents the degree of dependence of the enterprise on the water resource and whose technical criteria are described in the next subitems.This axis would not correlate with a conventional corporate risk matrix, considering that, as a rule, these matrices are based on only two (2) axes, severity versus probability.

Elaboration of the questionnaires and associated calculation basis
The three (3) axes of the FARH were developed through questionnaires with a calculation base associated with a scoring scale, according to the methodology described in the following topics: • The elaboration of questionnaires was carried out based on pre-determined questions, with closed ended responses for multiple choice questions developed for each axis.
The elaboration consisted of some steps, as recommended by Aaker et al. ( 2011): (i) planning of what one wanted to measure; (ii) formulating the questions to obtain the necessary information; (iii) definition of the text and the order of the questions, besides the visual aspect of the questionnaire and; (iv) test the questionnaire, using a small sample, to verify omissions and ambiguities.For such definitions and consensus of the adopted criteria an informal brainstorming (ABNT, 2012) was applied with the support of a multidisciplinary team composed of experts from the mining-metallurgical segment (environmental, technological and legal area) and members of the academy.The researcher's own experience was of great relevance for the execution of all stages.
• The calculation base associated with each axis was formulated based on a scale of criteria and scores developed in the research with the support of the multidisciplinary team previously listed and based on the correlation with the severity versus probability criteria applied in the risk assessment method as the Failure Mode and Effects Analysis -FMEA (GARGAMA; CHATURVEDI, 2011).The scale was established taking into account the segregation of the Y and Z axes in 5 (five) bands, with a score varying from 1 to 5, where 1 (one) corresponds to the lowest severity and probability score and 5 (five) to the highest score.
• The establishment of weights was done through direct rating, where major or minor weights were assigned according to the importance of each criterion (GOMES; GOMES, 2012), whose evaluation was performed by the multidisciplinary team involved in the informal brainstorming step.The scale of weights was divided into 3 points, being: i) Weight 1, adopted for the criteria of minor importance; ii) Weight 2, for the criteria of moderate importance; and iii) Weight 3, for the most important criteria.
• After the development of the questionnaires and of the rational equation calculation, the material was applied and tested by the multidisciplinary team in different rounds following the checklist methodological standard (ABNT, 2012) to assess adherence and need for revision.
With the consolidation of the questionnaires and the associated calculation basis, after the consensus of the discussions among the specialists, the criteria and technical concepts adopted for the composition of the Y, X and Z Axes were defined according to what is presented in the following items.

Hydrographic basin situation in relation to the degree of water stress -Y axis
The definition of the criteria that integrated the assessment of FARH's Y-Axis (river basin situation) was carried out based on the Water Exploitation Index (WEI) evaluation used by the European Environmental Agency, the United Nations and the National Agency of Water (ANA -acronym in Portuguese for Agência Nacional de Águas) in Brazil (ANA, 2011).
The WEI is obtained by calculating the quotient between the annual total withdrawal and the average long-term flow (average of the annual flows for the entire data series), establishing the relationship between demand and availability in percentage terms (%).This index can be obtained for the river basin and for the microbasin, based on the following classification: • Excellent (<5%), correlation with the "Very Low" severity scale; • Comfortable (5 to 10%), correlation with the "Low" severity scale; • Worrying (10 to 20%), correlation with the "Moderate" severity scale; • Critical (20 to 40%), correlation with "Critical" severity scale; • Very Critical (> 40%), correlation with the "Very Critical" severity scale.
For this research, the watershed was defined as a natural catchment area of the precipitation water that converges the flow to a single exit point.It consists of a set of sloping surfaces and a drainage network formed by water courses that converge to result in a single bed in the exudation.The microbasin corresponds to the area with direct drainage to the main course.
Table 2 presents the questionnaire developed within this research for the Y Axis and the associated score scale, which was developed based on the criteria used by ANA (2011).
The final scoring algorithm in the Y-Axis was obtained by the sum of the scores obtained in questions 1 to 4 considering the associated weights, weighted by the sum of the maximum possible scores in each question multiplied by the weights (maximum score = 35 points) converted to the maximum scale of 5 points, ie: Note Axis Y = [(Σ Maximum notes 1-4 * weights) * 5] / 35.

Water management status -X axis
The definition of the technical criteria that integrated FARH's X-Axis evaluation (status of the water management of the enterprise) was based on the principles of corporate governance of this resource, taking into account the guidelines set forth by the Water Risk Filter (WWF, 2014), namely: (i) physical risks; (ii) regulatory risks; and (iii) reputational risks.
The X-axis score was established based on the following classification:

Maximum rating 35
Note: The Water Exploitation Index should be calculated according to the Water Exploitation Index -WEI, which can be obtained from the website of the National Water Agency ( 2006) or hydrological tudy prepared by the enterprise.
• Excellent, correlation with the "Very Low" probability scale; • Comfortable, correlation with the "Low" probability scale; • Worrying, correlation with "Moderate" probability scale; • Critical, correlation with the "High" probability scale; • Very Critical, correlation with the "Very High" probability scale.
It should be noted that data related to water accounting (water balance) of these enterprises were obtained according to the Water Accounting Framework -Adapted (BISSACOT, 2016).
Table 3 presents the questionnaire developed within this research for the X-Axis and associated scale of points.
The final scoring algorithm in the X Axis was obtained by summing the scores obtained in questions 1 to 19 considering the associated weights, weighted by the sum of the maximum possible scores in each question multiplied by the associated weights (maximum score = 193 points) converted to maximum scale of 5 points, i.e.: Score Axis X = [(Σ Maximum scores 1-19 * weights) * 5] / 193.

Dependence of the enterprise in relation to the water resource -Z Axis
The definition of the technical criteria that integrated the Z Axis evaluation (dependence of the enterprise on water resource) of the FARH was based on the association of the level of This axis has no correlation with other conventional risk matrices, but it is associated with the financial impact assessment criterion proposed by Bissacot and Oliveira (2016) for the development of an environmental risk management tool.
The Z-axis score was established based on the following classification of the level of dependence of the enterprise in relation to the water resource: • Low, correlation with low financial impact; • Medium, correlation with moderate financial impact; • High, correlation with high financial impact.
Table 4 presents the questionnaire developed within this research for this mapping and the associated scale of points.
The final score algorithm in the Z Axis was obtained by the sum of the scores obtained in questions 1 to 3 considering the associated weights, weighted by the sum of the maximum possible scores in each question multiplied by the associated weights (maximum score = 18 points) converted to the maximum scale of 3 points, i.e.: Score Axis Z = [(Σ Maximum scores 1-3 * weights) * 3] / 18.

Classification of water risk
The criteria listed in the previous items comprised the technical basis for the classification of the water risk scale, developed within the scope of this research, according to the criteria described in Figure 5 and Figure 6, and consolidated in Figure 7.
The scores obtained in Axis Z correspond to the following levels of dependence of the resource: 1.00-1.99(low); 2.00-2.99(average) and> = 3 (high).

Validation and structuring of the FARH on a computerized basis from a pilot phase
After the development of the technical and structural basis of the FARH, a pilot stage was carried out to validate the established criteria.The pilot stage was carried out in 09 (nine) mining-metallurgical enterprises located in the states of Minas Gerais, Goiás and São Paulo, which mines and processes zinc, nickel and aluminum.Each enterprise responded individually to the questionnaires elaborated and the results obtained were    5 presents the description of the projects where FARH was applied.
With the validation of the FARH criteria, the data platforms were inserted in "macro excel" to computerize their application.

Results of the pilot phase
The water balance of the enterprises was elaborated according to a methodology adapted by Bissacot (2016).Figure 8 exemplifies the application of the methodology in site # 2 and Table 6 presents the summary of the results obtained for all the enterprises evaluated.
To obtain those that make up Table 6, the criteria defined by SMI and MCA (2014) and the adaptations proposed by Bissacot (2016)  (2) Closing of the balance Inputs Outputs were kept confidential, to ensure the confidentiality of process data of these enterprises.
The situation of the basin in relation to the degree of water stress (Y Axis) was classified as of critical concern in the evaluated projects, while the status of water management (X Axis) ranged from excellent to worrying according to the criteria listed, which culminated in the allocation of 08 (eight) enterprises in the moderate risk scale and 01 (one) in the high risk scale.
In relation to the level of dependence of the water resource (Z Axis), 03 (three) enterprises were identified with low dependence on the water resource, 05 (five) with medium dependency, and 01 (one) with a high level of dependence, where the scenario of water scarcity would significantly impact the unit's operations, culminating in the financial impact associated with a potential suspension of supply.
The questionnaires developed followed the stages defined by Schuman and Kalton (1985) and reinforced by Gunther (2003), the applied criteria presented technical adherence and were considered by the involved enterprises as corresponding to the operational reality, which demonstrated that the mapping provided by FARH was Sufficient for the composition of a water risk assessment tool to be applied by the country's metallurgical segment.
In addition, the correlation established with the severity and probability scales established by the FMEA (ZAMBRANO; MARTINS, 2007) demonstrated that the FARH results could be correlated to the mapping of the other environmental risks of these enterprises.

Guide to prepare the water management plan
With the results of the application of the pilot phase, the present research defined a guide for the elaboration of the water management plan of the mining-metallurgical enterprises.This guide was established based on the risk scale provided by FARH, taking into account aspects raised in the literature (ABIQUIM, 2016;ANA, 2016) and the multidisciplinary team involved in the discussion of the questionnaires and rational calculation of the tool.Tables 7 to 10 present prevention, follow-up, control, mitigation and contingency actions within the scope of this guide.
It should be emphasized that the proposed plan reflects the designation of strategic actions that should be understood as general guidelines for detailing the individual actions that each venture of the segment should adopt.Table 7.

CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION
The criteria listed for FARH formulation were sufficient and satisfactory for the development of a tool capable of identifying, analyzing and classifying the scale of hydrological risk of enterprises in the mining-metallurgical segment.
The dashboard generated allowed the consolidated visualization of the water risk of several enterprises on an evaluation basis, providing comparisons between different operations and providing a technical basis for the prioritization of short, medium and long term actions and allocation of resources within the organization.
The tool developed was considered sufficient to fill the existing gap of instruments that culminated in initial evaluations, providing technical elements for an integrated and specific water risk assessment for the mining-metallurgical segment.
The guide developed for the water management plan can be incorporated as a tool allied to the strategic planning of these enterprises, serving as a subsidy for the implementation of preventive, control, mitigation and water contingency actions.
FARH's computerization generated a file that is easily accessible and operational for use in the country's entire metallurgical and mining segment.It can also be evaluated and applied in other industrial segments, such as the chemical, textile, pulp and paper, automobile and other industries that present productive processes similar to hydrometallurgical processes.
