The unequal distribution and inadequate use have produced conflicts and put into question the guarantee of this resource for present and future generations. Modify this context and establish agreements between the various uses require institutional arrangements capable of reconciling the various interests and the collective production of solutions, which necessarily passes through the enviromental law, while human science endowed with interdisciplinary capacity to dialogue with other branches of science. In this sense, and in order to contribute to solving this problem, international law were establishing and conferences were held that culminated in producing policy guidelines that guided the Brazilian legislation on water management , in particular, by law 9.433 / 97.
