THE PCJ BASINS AGENCY AND THE PCJ COMMITTEES The Basins Committee is a type of Brazilian Institutional Organization which promotes the participation of the Public Authorities, Users and Communities in the management of water resources, acting as a Water Parliament.

Created and installed according to the State Law (SP) No. 7.663/91(CBH-PCJ), the Federal Law No. 9.433/97 (FEDERAL PCJ) and the State Law (MG) No. 13.199/99 (CBH-PJ), the PCJ Committees choose, through elections, the representatives of their Plenaries.

The Basins Committees were the legal arrangement found to allow the decentralization of the decision-making by the State and Federal Governments.

Their members come together three to four times a year to discuss and make decisions about planning and management observing the multiple uses of the water resource in their field of action and prioritizing the application of financial resources originated from the PCJ Water Use Charges and from the State Water Resources Fund from the State of São Paulo (Fehidro).

The River Basins Committees is not a legal entity, therefore, they do not own a CNPJ (Brazilian Register of Legal Entities) number, goods or employees, and may use physical structure and technical team of their members (users, universities, technical associative entities, municipal and state agencies, NGOs, etc.) participating in the Plenary and Technical Chambers. It is an entily with deliberative nature, which considers the River Basins Plan as its great management instrument, since it contains the actions to be executed, their costs

and terms. The committees for the river basins belonging to the Union are composed as follows: representatives of the Federal, State and Municipal Executive Branches (max. 40%); representatives of the users (40%); and representatives of the civil organizations (min. 20%). The division of members of the Committees for the River Basins belonging to the State is regulated by the respective laws of each State, in the case of the PCJ Committees, São Paulo and Minas Gerais.

In the state of São Paulo, the basins committees are tripartite, as follows: State Executive Branch (1/3); Municipal Executive Branches (1/3) and Civil Society (1/3). The Civil Society sector is divided among users, NGOs, universities, trade unions and technical associations. In the state of Minas Gerais, the River Basins committees have four sectors with the same number of votes: (1/4) to the State Executive Branch; (1/4) to the Municipal Executive Branch; (1/4) to the users of water resources and (1/4) to civil organizations.

The PCJ Committees, especially for representing a group of River Basins Committees (CBH-PCJ/SP; Federal PCJ

and CBH-PJ/MG), have a differentiated Plenary, resulting from the members of the plenaries of each one of such Committees.

For the execution of studies, projects, works and services set forth in the River Basins Plan, as well as the actions of the Executive Secretariat, the PCJ Committees created their PCJ Basins Agency.

WATER AGENCY OR RIVER BASINS Entity created or indicated by the Basins Committee to support its operation and act as its executive secretariat. It is responsible for the management of financial resources originated from the collection by the use of the water resources. It is a legal entity, according to the public ownership of the waters, that is, from the Union or the States. The Agency tasks, in some cases, may be delegated to the water resources civil organizations and entities alike.

For the waters belonging to the Union, the agency is known as Water Agency (Agência de Água). For the waters belonging to the States of São Paulo and Minas Gerais, the name is River Basins Agency (Agência de Bacias).

The (Water or Basins) Agencies are entities playing the roles of an Executive Secretariat for the Basins Committees. At the Federal level and within the State of Minas Gerais, there is no law defining the legal nature of the Agencies, and that is why the tasks are delegated to them, and they are named "Delegating Entities" and respectively equated entities, but in São Paulo, the State Law No. 10.020/98 establishes that the River Basins Agency predicted in Law No. 7.663/91, with the participation of the State Government, will only occur as a Private Law Foundation. The Federal Law No. 10.881/04 authorizes the National Waters Agency (Agência Nacional de Águas – ANA) to sign management contracts with water resources civil organizations and to delegate to such entities the performance of the tasks of the Water Agency, related to the management of water resources belonging to the Union.

According to Law No. 9433, from 1997, the following civil organizations may receive delegations by the CNRH - National Water Resources Council (Conselho Nacional de Recursos Hídricos – CNRH), within a specified period for the performance of the tasks which are responsibility of the Water Agencies: the inter municipal associations and consortia of river basins; regional, local or sectoral associations of water resources users; technical and educational organizations and research in the water resources area; non-governmental organizations, aiming to defend the diffuse and collective interests of the society and other organizations recognized by the National Council or by the State Councils of Water Resources. The Piracicaba, Capivari e Jundiaí River Basins manages the water resources in the PCJ River Basins and is responsible for the financial management of the funds raised with the PCJ Water Use Charges of the rivers belonging to the Union, and also for the funds raised for the rivers belonging to the State of São Paulo.

PCJ Basins Agency and PCJ Committees

CREATION OF THE PCJ RIVER BASINS AGENCY The São Paulo State Law No. 7.663, from 1991, which establishes the guidelines for the State Policy of Water Resources, in its Article 29, states that: “in the river basins, where the issues related to water resources so warrants it, by decision of the respective River Basin Committee and approval of the Council of Water Resources, a legal entity may be created, with its own administrative and financial structure, named River Basins.”

The same article assigns to the River Basins Agency the function of Executive Secretariat of the respective River Basins Committee, besides the responsibility of elaborating the River Basins Plan periodically, elaborating annual reports about the "Situation of the River Basin Water Resources" annually, managing the financial resources of FEHIDRO and the PCJ Water Use Charges and promoting the connection between the members of the Water Resources Integrated Management (Sistema Integrado de Gerenciamento dos Recursos Hídricos SIGRH) and other systems of the State and the productive sector and the civil society.

Thus, in November, 2009 the Agency of the PCJ River Basins Foundation was officially established, with the participation of the Government of the State of São Paulo via the Secretariats of Environment and the current Secretariat of Sanitation and Energy, the Secretariat of Sanitation and Water Resources, the Civil Society, by means of an Inter Municipal Consortium of the River Basins of the Piracicaba, Capivari and Jundiaí (PCJ Consortium) and 48 municipalities of the PCJ River Basins.

DEVELOPMENT AND RESULTS: THE CHALLENGE GROWS POPULATION GROWTH The chart below presents the population growth in the PCJ River Basins between 1997 and 2013, and the forecasts made by the River Basins Plan 2010-2020 for the trend scenario. It is estimated that, up to 2020, the total population will reach about 5.9 million inhabitants, 98% of those within the urban area.

If the forecasts are confirmed, in 2020 the population will be 66% greater than the population recorded in 1991. Thus, the actions in the sanitary sewage system may not stop, because the challenge grows day by day.

WATER QUALITY INDEX The Water Quality Index (IQA) represents the quality of the fresh water of a water body. Its determination is defined through a mathematical equation considering the following variables: turbidity, total residues, phosphorus, temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, biochemical oxygen demand, faecal coliforms and nitrogen, and the higher the value obtained to the IQA, higher the water quality.
