In the Dominican Republic, the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources and the Emergency Operations Center are coordinating to improve responses to environmental emergencies. Efforts include updating the National Forest Fire Support Plan and enhancing search and rescue operations in protected areas.

In Peru, the Ministry of Energy and Mines is working on environmental remediation in the Loreto region, specifically regarding the Tigre, Pastaza, Corrientes, and Marañón river basins. New regulations are being proposed to expand the list of prioritized impacted sites.

Additionally, the Environmental Evaluation and Enforcement Agency (OEFA) has conducted inspections of environmental infrastructure. In Trujillo, specialists evaluated the Huanchaco sanitary landfill to assess risks from heavy rains caused by the El Niño phenomenon. In Huaraz, a municipal slaughterhouse remains closed following sanctions from OEFA due to ongoing deficiencies in water and sewage systems, despite local investments in maintenance.
