With the support of Arc Gis software 10.3.1 morphometric characteristics of the watershed were determined in order to obtain a survey of the area under study and ultimately the state of water quality was evaluated based on physicochemical parameters chemicals analyzed by the laboratory know Ltda., an entity certified by the IDEAM, which means the water quality index determined ICOMO ICA and degradation of water quality through a period of time. Finally, this research received a diagnosis document Lenguazaque the basin of river, through the analysis of current social and environmental interactions, based on supply and demand of water resources in terms of quality and quantity, pressure revealing the natural ecosystem , basing environmental issues.
