Abstract:
This work develops the theme of the importance of basic sanitation in the urban area of São
João do Rio do Peixe-PB, with emphasis on sanitary sewage system, describing problems
resulting from the lack of it, as well as the need to implement these essential services for
social and environmental quality in the studied area. Since the work of sanitary sewage is
being implemented in the city, we seek to perceive their relevance in the urban area of the
municipality. From this perspective this paper objective is to establish a relationship between
the current situation where the sewage is released to the open sky in the bed of the Rio do
Peixe, Creek, streams, soil and ponds that are in peri-urban areas of the city without any
treatment and possible benefits that the sanitary sewage system can bring to the municipality
when in operation.
