Abstract

The Amazonian rural zone has a very great peculiarity, mainly in the riverside communities: they are usually characterized by the lack of basic sanitation. In the Paraense scenario, about 60% of the municipalities have an inefficient supply system, due to difficulties in supplying water in the water sources, in quantity and / or quality (ANA, 2010). The present study aims to evaluate the potential of domestic use of rainwater in family units in rural areas of the municipality of Breves. The methodology used was initially based on an exploratory research, based on bibliographical and documentary material. Thus, the spatial scale of the research encompassed rural households in the municipality of Breves, belonging to the Marajó mesoregion, in Pará, from which the potential for utilization of rainwater was calculated, considering the following monthly precipitation data; catchment area and the total; e rural population (Ghisi et al., 2006). In addition, the volume of precipitation to be collected ranged from 84.9m³ / month to 1580.90 m³ / month, revealing as a great potential in rural communities, the domestic use from the rainwater harvesting, as a way to remedy the shortage access to water resources for human consumption.
