This research investigates the social and sanitary situation of the Pantanal community located in the city of Belém, Pará. The methodology used sought to identify, in a quantitative and qualitative way, the positive and negative impacts of the macro drainage works of the Tucunduba watershed. Data collection was carried out by means of a semistructured questionnaire with an evaluation character, with the purpose of performing a Socioeconomic and Environmental Regressive Analysis (SEA), making a comparison before and after the beginning of the works. The result shows a social and sanitary improvement of the community, however there are caveats regarding changes in the execution and delays in the works that generated several disorders to the community.
