Resumen:
The present work aims to verify anthropogenic actions in the drainage microbasin of the Lima
Campos dam and the relationship with the multiple uses of water, including an observation of
the physical-natural and socio-spatial aspects, identifying the types of water uses and the
relationship with the transformations of space, therefore, verifying the main environmental
impacts. The following methodologies were used: bibliographical survey, including works that
deal with multiple uses of water, environmental impacts and the issue of water in the semi-arid
region; an analytical descriptive research; and a field survey with on-site visits to verify
problems related to the production model, use and occupation of land. Upon completion of the
work, impacts were noted, such as deforestation and burning, soil compaction and water
contamination due to livestock farming, as well as waste produced by residents and users of the
area for various purposes. It is concluded that it is necessary to adopt measures on the part of
everyone who uses this area. However, it requires incentives from public authorities, and the
commitment of educational campaigns that raise awareness in society about the care necessary
to preserve the environment. Such sensitivity will allow the continuity of economic activities,
as well as better health conditions and maintenance of natural resources.
