Abstract:
Human the action has caused changes in natural environments resulting in degradation and
loss of environmental quality of these areas. In surface water reservoirs it is no different, these
changes have caused several negative environmental impacts. Therefore, the objective of this
work is to identify the main environmental impacts in the Mororó dam. For the
accomplishment of the same one was established a methodology of qualitative research
guided in the observation for analysis and interpretation of the "phenomena observed
empirically", of descriptive nature, with registries, bibliographical research and field research
where the object of study was the main source of collection of data. Through this study, the
environmental impacts and the consequences of the same were identified in the dam died in
Tenente Ananias-RN. It is understood that these impacts are a result of the population's lack
of awareness about the importance of this water resource beyond the lack of knowledge
related to environmental issues and the absence of municipal laws and public agency action
that advocates and determines the preservation of this water tank.
