environmental political problems in the city of Assunção-PB that, during the short
rainy period, has been struggling with floods in two specific points of the city, and
throughout the rest of year, the municipality faces serious problems related to the
water supply. Based on these two extremes, we search here discuss how the
lack of public policies and governmental actions originate these problems, and
how the population has undergone for lack of water resources management,
being used as product in industry of drought. In the process of elaborate this
study, we seek to perform the mapping of areas of flooding in the urban area,
bibliographic reviews, and a few field visits. And by conducting of these
