Análisis de la articulación entre instrumentos de planificación territorial y de cuencas hidrográficas: estudio de caso PBOT municipio de Saravena, EOT municipio de Fortul y Pomca del Río Banadia, departamento de Arauca, Colombia

Abstract

The Watershed Ordination and Management Plans (POMCA) are instruments of regulated resource planning that promote the equitable distribution and development of the territories and their communities. For this reason, the Law of Territorial Development catalogs the POMCAs as determinants of management and norms of higher hierarchy for the articulation and formulation of the Territorial Management Plans (POT, PBOT and EOT). However, the context of conflicts that historically affect the dynamics of land occupation in Colombia hinder the development processes, so this research proposes recommendations for the articulation between the POMCA of the Banadia River and the territorial planning instruments of the municipalities of Saravena and Fortul in the department of Arauca, in order to understand the dynamics and the context of the articulation of the environmental determinants in the planning instruments. As a result, it was found that the inclusion of the determinants of the POMCA are included conditionally and moderately due to the erroneous conception of the determinants and the economic and technical limitations in the formulation of the Land Management Plans, for which it is recommended the incorporation of technologies that favour the analysis and monitoring of information, the increase of participation and decentralisation of policies to guide the formulation of guidelines and mechanisms for risk management, care and preservation of the natural environment, as well as the socio-economic impulse that enables the execution of sustainable occupation models.
