Belo Monte水力发电厂位于帕拉州兴古河沿着，是亚马逊地区最大、最新的项目，也是世界第三大项目。位于Belo Monte大坝上游52公里处的阿尔塔米拉市是该大坝的主要施工阶段。使用2016年进行的调查和访谈作为社会和量化工具，我们确定了Belo Monte建设后阿尔塔米拉的基本卫生实践，并揭示了可能影响环境和人口公共健康的问题。通过对国家政策的分析和公开信息的使用，我们发现了阿尔塔米拉目前的现实与巴西现有的国家公共政策之间的差异，主要是巴西的水资源政策和联邦卫生法。沿着该地区类似的基本卫生设施和废物处理做法使我们相信，如果不加以解决，在阿尔塔米拉观察到的执行差距很可能会出现在目前设想的整个亚马逊流域今后的水电开发项目中。随着亚马孙地区计划修建更多的水坝，查明影响基本卫生和水资源的公共政策执行差距，将为预测可能影响将实施此类大型基础设施项目的居民的公共卫生需求的问题创造机会。
Located in the State of Pará, along the Xingú River, the Belo Monte Hydroelectric Complex is the largest, most recent project in the Amazon region and third largest in the world. The city of Altamira, located 52 km upstream from the Belo Monte dam, served as the main stage for its construction. Using surveys and interviews performed in 2016 as social and quantifiable tools, we determine basic sanitation practices in Altamira after the construction of Belo Monte and reveal issues that can impact the environment and public health of the population. Through analysis of national policies and the use of publicly available information, we identify discrepancies between Altamira's current reality and Brazil's existing national public policies, mainly Brazil's Water Resources Policy and the Federal Sanitation Law. Similar basic sanitation provision and waste disposal practices along the region lead us to believe that, if not addressed, the implementation gaps observed in Altamira are likely to emerge in future hydroelectric development projects currently envisioned throughout the Amazon Basin. As more dams in the Amazonian region are planned, identifying public policy implementation gaps that affect basic sanitation and water resources creates opportunities to anticipate problems that could impinge on the public health needs of residents where such large infrastructure projects will be implemented.
