Previous issue date: 2003-12-16 / The search for sustainable solutions through an appropriate environmental administration of the available natural resources, that comes from encounter to the aspirations of preservation of the environment and of the human being, in way to diagnose and to solve the environmental and social problems with the smallest possible impact to the nature and the man, it is the great challenge, so much for that generation, as for the future generations. The study of the environmental problems of the water and the participation and the social actors' environmental understanding as a whole, interferes in the field of the thematic environmental international, contemplating the strategic need of an appropriate administration of that very natural one, through a program returned to the diagnosis of the problems and in the search of compatible maintainable solutions, in a social and environmental politics of planning and environmental education, centered above all in the citizen's voice , user of that system.

For the analysis of the results, it was made an exploratory descriptive study initially, followed by the use of techniques statistical multivariate s, such as, factorial analysis through the application of main components, besides the accomplishment of studies of multiple lineal regression.

Para a an?lise dos resultados, foi inicialmente feito um estudo descritivo explorat?rio, seguido da utiliza??o de t?cnicas estat?sticas multivariadas, tais como, an?lise fatorial por meio da aplica??o de componentes principais, al?m da realiza??o de estudos de regress?o linear m?ltipla. Para complementar este estudo, procedeu-se a realiza??o de Testes de Independ?ncia atrav?s do Qui-Quadrado de Pearson, de modo a verificar a depend?ncia das associa??es entre as vari?veis Sociodemogr?ficas e as principais vari?veis selecionadas e presentes nos fatores resultantes da an?lise fatorial. Os resultados apontam para um baixo n?vel de conhecimento ambiental, de acesso ? informa??o e senso de comunidade, al?m da constata??o de que os principais fatores resultantes remetem para a necessidade de se dar ?nfase nos programas e a??es de gest?o direcionada para a conscientiza??o ambiental, os comportamentos e atitudes que abordam as informa??es e a educa??o ambiental, al?m do reuso da ?gua
