This work sought to study Permanent Preservation Areas (APP) of the Environmental Protection Area (APA) of the Timburi Stream regarding the remaining vegetation and propose ecological restoration for a degraded stretch. After analyzing the Permanent Preservation Areas, the ecological restoration proposal took place on a rural property. The chosen rural property is located to the west of APA Timburi, in the municipality of Presidente Prudente, state of São Paulo. The option for this study area was due to its geographic location and importance, since the area is part of the Timburi Environmental Protection Area (APA), recently created by the Supplementary Law of the Municipality of Presidente Prudente no 235/2019. In order to understand the physical aspects of the Environmental Protection Area (APA) of Timburi, cartographic products of hypsometry, slope, geology, geomorphology and land use and coverage (year 2020) were generated. The area of permanent preservation in the APA and land use and coverage in the APP were also mapped, using radar images from the Topographic Mission Radar Shuttle (SRTM / NASA, 2000) and, respectively, satellite images from the LANDSAT 8 series of the 25/03/03 / 2020. Through the interpretation of the satellite images, APPs with forest cover were identified, and the sections with conflict of use (degraded), allowing their diagnosis. Later, through field trips, adjustments, detailing and verification of the elements identified in the satellite images were possible. Field work was essential to determine the degraded APP stretches that would need ecological restoration, as well as the identification of disturbance factors. Restoration measures have been proposed for a rural property, such as the isolation of disturbance factors and planting of seedlings to restore the native forest, in order to protect the water resource, soil and other environmental aspects present there. In view of the advances in the use of ecological restoration techniques in recent years, as an alternative for the recovery of degraded ecosystems and environmental balance, we seek to show that it can be done using simple techniques that guarantee a good result over the years.
