Following public funding for rainwater systems in Pará

Trace one federal agreement from its original terms to reported account payments, planned locations, and an independent census baseline.

Brazil’s Cisternas program uses rainwater systems to improve access to water. This case follows agreement 945310 with Centro de Estudos Avançados de Promoção Social e Ambiental (CEAPS). Its original total was BRL 20,999,926.98. The federal contribution recorded after an amendment was BRL 31,499,882.76. The agreement, payment and tender records share identifiers, which let readers follow the money to specific organizations and see where the trail ends.

From the federal agreement to its account

Transferegov records the agreement as signed on . The first amendment added BRL 10,499,955.78. The December 2024 Gazette notice and Transferegov list the same increase and different signature dates. The case data preserves both dates.

The 11 reported bank orders total BRL 31,499,882.76, equal to the updated federal contribution. Each order records an amount made available to the agreement account. The 2026 figures here and below cover the records available in the November 2026 capture.

Payments reported from the agreement account

The payment archive records BRL 26,486,295.95 in other payments and BRL 704,979.32 transferred to another account held by CEAPS. A separate onward file has a record for each of those 190 internal transfers. All 190 corresponding onward amounts are missing. The internal and onward records describe successive stages of the same movement. Transferegov’s reporting guide.

Payments reported for two named organizations

The account records use the same full CNPJ registration numbers as the ministry’s organization list and the 2025 selection notice. These amounts are already included in the other payments column above. The payment archive ties each record to the agreement and payee. It leaves the individual bank order, contract, lot and location of spending unresolved.

The two named payees have no matched rows in 2023. One SOMECDH row in 2025 reports a zero amount and remains in the count.

Where the tenders planned work

The separate work-plan schedule lists Santarém on six goals for this agreement. Five goals have no linked municipality. The tender below names the planned lots in Óbidos and Oriximiná. Each source keeps its own location and purpose.

CEAPS published three calls for work tied to this agreement. The 2025 call explicitly uses the first amendment. It names low-income families in rural quilombola territories in Óbidos and Oriximiná who face drought or irregular access to water. The tender estimates are maximum amounts for the lots.

CallMunicipalities named in planning recordsPlanned installationsSelected organization
001/2023 Aveiro and Santarém339 in 4 lots SOMECDH
001/2024 Aveiro and Santarém405 in 3 lots SOMECDH
001/2025 Óbidos and Oriximiná358 in 2 lots Instituto Vitória Régia

The 2024 selection notice summarizes the work in Santarém. The original lot table also lists Aveiro. The 2025 notice invites Instituto Vitória Régia to sign for both lots. The files here establish the selection. A signed 2025 contract and final delivery would require separate records.

Water access before the agreement

In the 2022 Census, Brazil’s statistics agency IBGE counted residents whose households reported rivers, reservoirs, streams, lakes or igarapés, small waterways, as their main source of water. The rows below use the census population closest to the 2025 tender’s stated geography. It includes rural quilombola residents of occupied permanent private dwellings within quilombola territories in each municipality. The tender targets specific places and eligible families within that broader population.

Municipality2022 residents reporting surface water as the main source2025 installations plannedTender estimate (BRL)
Óbidos777 of 3,696 · 21.02%120BRL 3,338,748.60
Oriximiná3,486 of 4,857 · 71.77%238BRL 6,149,035.42

The census counts describe residents in 2022. The tender figures describe planned installations in 2025. Their different units leave a coverage rate and per-resident spending unknown. An independent water-quality measure would also require a separate source.

Compare piped water across all four municipalities

These separate 2022 census figures count all urban and rural residents of occupied permanent private dwellings in each municipality.

What the operator reported delivering

CEAPS reported signing with SOMECDH after the 2023 call. It later reported delivering 70 water systems in Pinhel, Aveiro in December 2024. The delivery report names the same organizations and a place listed in the contract announcement. It gives no agreement or lot number. This is one operator-reported output. A complete audited installation count and measured results for households remain open.

The work adds water infrastructure. In the depth scale, that is an example of repair, and reliable service could help prevent interruptions in access. A separate study in eastern Pará measured harvested rainwater quality before and after treatment at other sites. It illustrates the value of testing water quality separately from counting installations. This case supplies no water-quality measurements from the funded sites.

How to check the records

The case JSON records the proposal and agreement numbers, bank-order IDs, archive fingerprints and census table coordinates. Payment summaries use the exact agreement number and calendar year. The two named subsets also require an exact organization registration number. The CSVs keep bank orders, account payments, payee subsets and census observations separate. The financial archives are attributed to Transferegov.br under the Open Database License. The reproduction steps identify the exact inputs.
