Environmental management and land use planning are difficult issues for all government authorities. The author in his
doctoral work called Systemic Model for Environmental Impact Assessment at River Basin Level, proposed a methodology
to quantitatively assess the environmental impact at the level of a river basin. In the same work an indicator called EVI was
proposed, which includes the result of the environmental impact value with other macroeconomic variables, with the support
of the Fuzzy Logic. It is important to note that the estimated environmental impact at the Basin level is quantitative and the
EVI is an important and innovative contribution to environmental assessment and management. This methodology can be
extrapolated for the assessment of the vulnerability of aquifers such as Puerto Boyaca, Colombia, allowing a better decision
making on its use and environmental management.
