摘要：It is known that the northeast region has regional subdivisions classified as Meio-Norte, Serto, Agreste and Zona da Mata, where the main characteristic that differentiates them is the climatic conditions that corroborate the economic, population and vegetation differences. In this perspective, this work focuses on the northeastern Serto sub-region, which is inserted in the so-called drought polygon, which has long periods of drought that contribute to low agricultural productivity and drought in the region. As a means of hiding the difficulties arising from such characteristics, for a long period there were government actions for the implementation of dams in order to circumvent the drought, for example, the Mucutú dam in the municipality of Juazeirinho-PB. However, despite the benefits to the population with access to the dammed waters in the dams, they generate several environmental impacts that arise during their construction. Therefore, the objective of this work was to analyze the environmental impacts recorded in the Mucutú weir located in the city of Juazeirinho-PB after anthropic interventions of extraction of materials such as clay and rocks for works of the dam of the weir, and destruction of the local vegetation by immersion in the water where losses of soil material and vegetation can be identified. The study was covered by means of a case study methodology with method (CHECKLIST), with the resources of in loco investigation with open interviews carried out with local residents, fieldwork and bibliographic research with the reading of some authors who cover such themes in their studies. The results obtained in the research were the degradation problems found in the dam activities carried out by anthropic action, where soil problems, water pollution, in addition to landscape degradation and damage to the local nature were found. It is concluded that it is of fundamental importance to use projects that are concerned with environmental maintenance and integrity even before carrying out any humanistic action.
