Abstract

This article presents Eng. José Pereira Rebouças' Project. In 1904, Eng.  Rebouças proposed the capture of water from Tietê river as a solution to the problem of water supply of São Paulo city. The refusal of the project condemned Tietê river to be abandoned to its own fate. The choice for the reservoirs of Cantareira mountains proved to be wrong and the population of São Paulo continued suffering from the lack of such precious liquid.
