%X The work presents study of case related to the Sanitary Drainage System¡¯s inactivity in Itoror¨® city. Considering the existence of a Sanitary Drainage System, delivered to the Municipal City Hall in 1996, where the amount of one million dollars was invested through Bahia¡¯s Government and today it is in complete inactivity, this research aims to understand the municipal managers¡¯ attitude in presence of the Col nia River¡¯s pollution caused for liquid residues that comes from the system¡¯s inactivity. The used methodology has a quali-quantitative emphasis, which half-structured interviews were realized with municipal managers divided in two groups, communitarian leaderships and power public¡¯s representatives. Besides, opened interviews with the direct observation to the system and affected area were realized. The data have been collected in January 2006. The results demonstrate the community¡¯s interest for the system¡¯s reactivation, however, it doesn¡¯t perceive concrete action in this direction, proving that there is a great distance between the good ambient intention and concret motion compromising the population¡¯s health.
