Abstract

The lake suffers from Cabrinha Piçarreira of the degradation process due to the research done in this area tries to show aspects of degradation of the lagoon in question and the consequences for the local population. To achieve the proposed objectives we used the following methodology: literature survey, field research followed by observation of photographs; Application of a questionnaire in a sample of 20 residents living around the pond in question; Interview with representative of the City of Teresina Program on the North Ponds. It was found that the main aspects of degradation occurring in the Lagoon Piçarreira Cabrinha are launching domestic solid waste, construction material, domestic sewage and deforestation for housing. Importantly, the degradation occurred in the area has caused decrease in environmental quality, therefore, generates poor quality of life. This is evidenced by the residents when they complain about the stink caused, spreading disease, and mosquitoes in the area. Around the pond study, a three social agents, property developers, with the construction of Residential Cintia Portela, the population excluded from building their homes in hazardous areas, causing damage to the environment, and the State that acts allowing the performance of As above or even gone away from its obligations to the less favored population. The latter agent has been working through the North Lakes Program (NLP), which is still in its infancy and there are now only works to be carried out in the surroundings of the lagoon Piçarreira Cabrinha. If, indeed, the program has been completed the area will be greatly benefited. We conclude that the Lagoon Piçarreira Cabrinha is very degraded, requiring more agility in investments that benefit the area.
