Abstract
The present research determines if in some rural communities of Sincelejo, Colombian Caribbean, an adequate environmental management of the water resource is carried out in community jagüeyes. The characterization of 10 selected units was carried out, emphasizing areas and storage volumes. The community-jagüeyes relationship was established regarding water demands, water balances and relevant socio-productive problems presented by limitations on access to water. And the quality of the stored water was defi ned. The area measurements of the jagüeyes ranged from 0.09 ha to 0.27 ha, with capacities between 1,632.28 m3 and 5,269.98 m3. Negative water balances were evidenced resulting in the defi nition of defi cits. The socio-productive disadvantages identifi ed were related to the obvious negligence of the users for administration, operation, maintenance and economic investment on the jagüeyes. On the other hand, although the intake is an use of less consideration among users, water quality was specifi ed as sanitary unfeasible for human consumption. It is concluded that there is no adequate environmental management of the water resource of the jagüeyes studied, being necessary the extension of the
study of these due to their relevance for rural communities.
