Resumo:
The Tocantins-Araguaia hydrographic region is of fundamental importance in the national
context, since it is characterized by the expansion of the agricultural frontier, mainly related to
grain cultivation (an activity that uses water for irrigation) and the hydroelectric potential.
Water has an importance in the development of society that has long been part of agreements
and treaties, which seek to regulate its uses, due to an unstable management during the period
of history. Thus, the complexity of the conflicts demands, more and more, the adoption of an
adequate treatment, in order to implement new resolution strategies as an alternative to
judicialization. Some basin committees do not make use of the attribution of administratively
arbitrating the conflicts under their jurisdiction, either due to lack of regulation, lack of
knowledge and insecurity in the face of the forms and complexities involving the disputes. In
this sense, a proposal for an intervention protocol to resolve conflicts over water use adds a
contribution to water governance and to the instruments of water resources management
policy. The present work made use of information pointed out and analyzed in the situation of
conflict over water use in the hydrographic basin of the Formoso river, located in the state of
Tocantins. It contextualized the problem, evaluated the measures adopted for the execution of
legal agreements in the negotiation process, and described the implementation of water use
control instruments in the watershed. Finally, it was possible with the employment of the
investigative method, using the descriptive and qualitative approach to identify the phases of
the procedure and build the structure of the intervention protocol, characterizing the elements
that integrate the tasks, activities and procedures of the administrative protocol proposal for
conflict resolution.
