Received on February 10, 2018 - Approved on June 01, 2018. ABSTRACT Keywords: Background: Since the issuance of Decree 1729 of 2002, the need for the management of watersheds and the concepts, objectives and scope of the corresponding management plans in the country was established. Hydrographic Objective: The final purpose of this exercise is to define and logically and coherently link the key concepts basin, conceptual and variables necessary to address research focused on the organization and management of watersheds. In framework, addition, verify the state of the art and determine future research needs. Methodology: For its elaboration a management, recognition of the literature concerning the topic was carried out, an evaluation and follow-up of the progress POMCA and reports delivered by each of the components, the conclusions that came out as a result of the weekly work systematization of tables of the technical and administrative teams, the design and reading of a format applied during the experiences. systematization of the experience, and the technical analysis of the guide for the river basin development and management plans. Results: A conceptual framework was constructed with the terms of greatest importance to be managed by a team that participates in management processes during the various phases of a study. Conclusions: A clear conceptual framework allows to guide the research, provides a review to decipher and understand the results of the study and facilitates the production of new knowledge and the articulation between the technical teams for the fulfillment of the objectives during the development of river basin management plans (POMCA). Taking as a reference, the experiences lived during the execution of this study, it can be said that it is fundamental that in the preparation and during the beginning of the diagnosis, professionals hold conceptualization meetings so that the different products to be obtained show a joint participation from the different knowledge groups. RESUMEN Palabras clave: A partir de la expedición del Decreto 1729 de 2002, se estableció la necesidad de la ordenación de las cuencas y los conceptos, objetivos e importancia de los planes de manejo correspondientes en el país.

Además, verificar el estado del arte y determinar las necesidades investigativas futuras. Para ordenación, su elaboración se llevó a cabo un reconocimiento de la literatura concerniente al tema, una evaluación y POMCA y seguimiento de los informes de avance entregados por cada uno de los componentes, las conclusiones que sistematización de salieron como resultado de las mesas de trabajo semanal del equipo técnico y administrativo, el diseño y experiencias. lectura de un formato aplicado durante la sistematización de la experiencia, y el análisis de la guía técnica *Corresponding author.

Conceptual framework for watershed management based on the systematization of the pilot project for Colombia of the Pamplonita river basin para la formulación de los planes de ordenación y manejo de cuencas hidrográficas. Se construyó un marco conceptual con los términos de mayor importancia para ser manejados por un equipo que participe en procesos de ordenación en el transcurso de las diversas fases de un estudio. Un marco conceptual claro permite orientar la investigación, brinda una reseña para descifrar y comprender los resultados del estudio y facilita la producción de nuevo conocimiento y la articulación entre los equipos técnicos para el cumplimiento de los objetivos durante la formulación de Planes de ordenación y manejo de cuencas hidrográficas (POMCA). Teniendo como referencia las experiencias vividas durante la realización de este estudio, se puede decir que es fundamental que en el aprestamiento y durante el inicio del diagnóstico, los profesionales realicen reuniones de conceptualización para que los diferentes productos a obtener muestren una participación conjunta desde los diferentes saberes. Introduction from Pamplona to Puerto Santander, has an area of approximately 140,603 Ha, and approximate length Watershed management is a planning process that is of 115 km, covers the municipalities of Villa del constant, methodical and complete, which is executed Rosario, Los Patios, Chinácota, Pamplonita, Herrán by the guild that interacts in and with the territory of and Ragonvalia, which are fully included in the basin a watershed, aimed at the use and management of and the municipalities of Cúcuta, Bochalema, Puerto the assets of the same, so as to maintain or restore Santander and Pamplona partially. The importance an appropriate balance between the social and of elaborating this research did not lie solely in economic use of such resources and the preservation conceiving a pilot project that would implement the of the structure and physical-biotic function of provisions of the policy in the hydrographic basins the watershed [1]. The policy for integrated water component, but also in providing feedback through resource management (PGIRH) [2] was issued in the systematization of the exercise and in turn 2010 by the Ministry of Environment, Housing and constructing an appropriate conceptual framework Territorial Development, which contains the primary and contextualized from a real experience, which can guidelines for the administration and organization be consulted by other teams that seek the management of water resources. It should be noted that the of other basins in the country in conditions similar PGIRH emphasizes the continuous improvement of to the present exercise, where limitations were territorial planning models related to water resource found, such as the lack of documentation for the management [2]. Specifically, it proposes novel achievement of objectives [2]. guidelines for the formulation of the POMCA, whose purpose is to plan the sustainable use and In accordance with Decree 1640 of 2012 [3] and management of renewable natural resources in order based on the Technical Guide for the formulation to conserve or re-establish an adequate balance of watershed management plans [1], this process between the socio-economic disposition of such was carried out in the following stages: preparation, resources and the conservation of the physical-biotic diagnosis, foresight and environmental zoning. In structure of the basin [2]. addition, for the development of these stages, a large team of professionals was distributed in the following The Francisco de Paula Santander University components: geographic information systems (GIS), (UFPS), the Association of Regional Autonomous water, soil, biotic, socioeconomic, communications, Corporations (ASOCAR´s) and the North Eastern digital atlas, foresight and formulation. In order to Frontier Regional Autonomous Corporation prepare it, a review of the literature on the subject (CORPONOR) signed agreement 000036 in 2011, was carried out, an evaluation and follow-up of the with the intention of making an adjustment to the progress reports submitted by each of the components, planning and management of the Pamplonita river an analysis of the conclusions that emerged as a basin. The basin located on the eastern mountain result of the weekly work tables of the technical range, extending southwest of Norte de Santander, Respuestas, 23 (2) July - December 2018, pp. 96-109, ISSN 0122-820X 97 Yenni Esperanza Rodríguez-Pérez, Jacipt Alexander Ramón-Valencia, John Hermógenes Suárez-Gélvez and administrative team, the application and reading During the execution of the project, an integral of a format applied during the systematization of follow-up and accompaniment of each one of the experience and the reading and analysis of the the executed activities was carried out, where policy [2] and the guide [1].
