Abstract:
This study conducted a study of the current situation of the reservoir water quality São
Gonçalo - PB. For this, were collected and made the analysis of surface and bulk water from
said reservoir, through physical, chemical and microbiological parameters. Samples were
collected in January 2015, a period in which the dam was subjected to a rigorous period of
drought, in which the stock level dropped more than 85%, far beyond than expected in recent
years, drought this coming going on since 2012. The physical, chemical and microbiological
results were analyzed according to the prevailing laws. It was observed that some samples of
both surface water as the raw water, were within the standards and other already exceeded the
acceptable limit of each sample, as recommended by CONAMA Resolution 357/05,
CONAMA Resolution 274/00 and Resolution CONAMA 430/11. In the microbiological tests
were confirmed the presence of coliforms in both samples collected water. After the analysis
results, we concluded that we should exercise great caution regarding the treatment of water
from the São Gonçalo dam, so she can get to your final destination, with quality endorsing the
responsibility of the organs that make the treatment of the same . So we can say that the
results were satisfactory, even by the weather woes plaguing the region
