Sumario:This paper seeks to explore the legal,criminal frameworks of possible regulatory breaches that arise in the environmental impact assessment procedures in Argentina. Said procedure is required by the General Environmental Law as a prerequisite for the execution of certain works or activities. To that end, in the first place, the national and provincial regulations that govern that procedure will be referred. The Santa Fe regulations will be taken as an example, and some salient aspects that make the role that different actors must play in its development (individuals, public officials, experts) will be extracted from it. At the same time, different violations of the regulations that may occur within its framework will be identified. Then, different types of liability (civil, administrative, professional) to which these violations can give rise will be analyzed, with a focus on criminal liability. Some reflections will be made in this regard and criminal offence definitions that are considered useful as criminal policy tools in environmental matters will be identified. Finally, contributions will be suggested aiming the adoption of a criminal policy in environmental matters by the Public Ministries
