Aspectos da pequena açudagem na gestão de sub-bacias no Ceará

Abstract

The circunstances provoked by droughts on the semi-arid of the northeastern region of Brazil, assumed along the history, a unavoidable character that led to the adoption of politics related to the construction of hydric reservoirs as an attempt to mitigate the effects of drought. However, the construction of a great number of reservoirs, done in a random way, without observing its framing to the conditions of the hydric dynamics as well as its yours support capacity, allied to an ocupation, motivated by the offer of water, ended up inserting itself in the context of socioenvironmental problematic. Therefore, the integration of hydric resources management through the institution of hydric basins as an unit of management should consider as prioritary manner, the question of damming as concern to the northeastern hydric resources, in special, the ones of small size, that support directly the local communities and which are more seriously affected by the degradation generated by antropic actions as well as inadequate use.
