             abstract = "Environmental sanitation is one of the main causing factors of 
                         water use conflicts at the Rio Grande Basin, Brazil. The 
                         precariousness of sanitation conditions in the area degrades water 
                         resources and affects the health and quality of life of the local 
                         population, as well as regional economic development. In this 
                         context, this study aims to assess the environmental sanitation 
                         sustainability condition in two Rio Grande Basin (BHRG) water 
                         management units. An evaluation index system grouped into three 
                         subsystems (economic, social and environmental) was applied to 
                         this end, carried out for the years of 2008, 2010, 2012 and 2014. 
                         The indicator and subsystem weights were based on the Entropy 
                         Information concept. The empirical results of this study indicated 
                         unacceptable environmental sanitation sustainability conditions 
                         for both assessed water management units. This study, thus, 
                         demonstrates the impacts of economic development and environmental 
                         quality on the human subsystem. In addition, it provides 
                         theoretical implications and practical approaches for assessing 
                         sanitation conditions under the sustainable development scenario,
