Water has been at the center of world attention, giving rise to several discussions about its uses, conservation, pollution and sustainability. Law No. 9433/97 which established the PNRH - National Water Resources Policy and created the SINGREH - National Water Resources Management (BRAZIL, 1997) is now the leading reference for water management in Brazil. Currently, the role of a watershed has received deserved attention because of its importance for economic development and social unity as the sponsor of the environment.
