El acuerdo detalla sus funciones, que incluyen la dirección funcional de los fiscales asignados, la coordinación interinstitucional con entidades como el Ministerio de Ambiente y Energía (MINAE) y el Organismo de Investigación Judicial (OIJ), y la promoción de la capacitación especializada. Asimismo, se regula el procedimiento para la asignación de casos, el régimen de suplencias, y se autoriza al Fiscal General para integrar los equipos de trabajo y gestionar los recursos necesarios. La creación de esta fiscalía responde a la necesidad de fortalecer la persecución penal en una materia de creciente complejidad e interés público, centralizando la respuesta institucional frente a los delitos que afectan los recursos naturales y el ordenamiento agrario.",
