RESUMO:

The rural area in the municipality of Mossoró has 2,099.3 km2 where there are 105 rural communities in its territory, with a population of 8,045 families. Since the area is in the semi-arid climate zone, it presents rainfall average around 800 mm/year, and sedimentary geology, composing part of the depression in the Sertão, with the occurrence of porous aquifers, and substantial underground water reserves. This research aims to recognize the levels of water security in the rural area communities in Mossoró. To this end, a study was conducted involving a sample space of the three communities that were chosen considering the criteria of proximity, applicability, existence of wells, and need of emergency measures by transporting water via tanker trucks. The communities studied were Lagoinha, Coqueiro, and Bom Destino. The HWISE analysis scale was used as the main methodological tool in order to measure water security of 147 families. As a contribution to this analysis, the mapping of the wells that supply these community houses was made, as well as the classification of types of access alternatives for existing water, through fieldwork carrying out. The research results pointed out to the existence of medium insecurity areas, especially in Bom Destino and Coqueiro communities. However, from the perspective of spatial justice, the territorial analysis of these spaces showed the existence of great inequalities and difficulties in the access to water in adequate quantity and quality, inferring these communities as insecure from a water point of view.
