Use the identity function.
One of the major design goals of UTF8 was to pass
ASCII through unmodified.

Check the Wikipedia article
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF8
or, since your address has a .br domain,
http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8

Just to be clear, ASCII has no accented letters,
so "Descrição" doesn't count as ASCII.
