RESUMO

The Permanent Preservation Areas (PPAs) were imposed by New Brazilian Forest Code in order to ensure the stability of the landscape, water and biotic features. Among the types of PPAs are those which protect the marginal portions of the watercourses, which are currently focuses of environmental conflicts, given its regulatory power that overly restricts the uses of land in those spaces. The analysis of environmental legislation indicates that this type of PPA, applied in a general and unconditional for the entire national territory, is not suited to the diverse realities of the many Brazilian landscapes. The discussions sought to demonstrate how the definition of areas for protecting the water courses can be designed from the characteristics of each river system, according to the conjuncture of their environmental factors, that objectives are successful. Understanding the watershed as the ideal unit of planning, the proposal is made to define the means of protecting the river systems through "Basin Plans" instrument of National Policy of Water Resources, based on analysis of environmental factors. The geomorphology is presented as an important factor in the development of environmental processes and to indicate the types of environments formed on the banks of the river courses, according to the composition and conformation of the land and the level of incision of the drainage channel. The analysis of the types of environments sectorally formed and along the basin can stipulate how they should be protected from the water courses and the types of land uses appropriate for each segment of the river valley. In general, it is observed that the protection demanded increases the plains to the mountains upstream and downstream.
