Brazil has significant reserves of potable water, and access to this resource is linked to social, universal, and human rights. In this dissertation, the social and public policy of access to potable water was discussed, taking into account some historical particularities of the country and, using as a starting point, the National Program for Monitoring the Quality of Water for Human Consumption (Vigiagua), and was presented information related to the profile of the Brazilian population with less access to potable water and how this access has been occurring in the state of Espírito Santo. The general objective of the research was to analyze intersectorality in health surveillance planning within the Sub-secretariat of Health Surveillance of Espírito Santo (SSVS/ES), based on the Program and, in the specific objectives, to identify the sharing and/or exchange of information related to the data in this set of actions and to verify whether the sectors of that Sub-Secretariat developed any initiative or joint action of an intersectoral nature reffering to diseases or conditions that were somehow linked to access to potable water or to the Program, in addition to analyzing the occurrence of intersectoral strategies in health surveillance in the SSVS/ES, linked to the same subjects. The methodology used was qualitative research with data collected through self-administered questionnaires, formulated with open and closed questions, directed to representatives of the political, administrative, and technical components of the SSVS/ES. As a result, it was observed that, in general, the participants recognized the importance of using Vigiagua Program data for the health surveillance planning process, and that addressing the complexities related to access to potable water was linked to the intersectoral coordination of different sectors in health policy.
