Studies on the state of conservation of water sources and consequences of urbanization desplanejada show are of extreme importance to subsidize projects of restoration of these ecosystems. Thus, the aim of this work to present the situation in which they find some sources of the river in the municipality of Mundaú Garanhuns in rural Pernambuco. In this sense, measure up the observations made in the areas of the headwaters of Vila Maria, Seeding and Farm Trinity, the possible consequences of the accelerated urbanization process, the establishment of a Public Laundry (near one of the springs), channeling water to agricultural use and other environmental impacts that affect the dynamics of these springs. The procedures for the development of this research were based on descriptive qualitative methodology, used by Pinto et al. (2004), which aims to determine changes in springs, through surveys and observations of the physical environment, the use and occupation of land and drainage network. Through observations performed in the field activities, reading and analysis of the literature, it was observed that the three sources are point therefore present the occurrence of water flow in only one location on the ground and maintains constant flow, which those classified as perennial springs. After applying the method of Pinto et al (2004), it can be concluded that the NVM presents a sharp picture of degradation, the NS may be considered disturbed and NFT preserved. This study has very important social and environmental enabling suggest an initial plan of recovery goals and conservation of areas of the springs, as well as support future environmental studies.
