The Coxilha Rica includes the southern portion of the city of Lages, located between the basins of the rivers Lava Tudo, Pelotas and Pelotinhas. This paper seeks to explore the concept of a region as Coxilha Rica, influenced by the land use and occupation, being the water supplier to the basin which it belongs. The Coxilha Rica , with its 1,136.5 km², has 4663 km of water bodies and a large number of springs, holding a relevant hydrographic and must be regarded supplier of quality water to the basin which it belongs. This quality found in the water present in the territory of Coxilha Rica can be explained by the land use and occupation, largely exploited by the activity of extensive livestock rearing, with low stocking of animals, thereby allowing the maintenance of native vegetation and low impact water bodies.
