| Summary: | Due to the rapid development in the country lately, the amount of domestic waste or uncontroUed landuse for urbanisatïon for examples being discharged into the source particularly river. This phenomenon creates problems especially at intake point which is deteriorating the quality of raw water to be treated Generally, each water use including abstraction of water and discharges of wastes impacts on the quality of raw water and the uncontroUed and excessive use of fertilisers for example, has long- term effects on surface water resources and ground water. The deterioration of raw water quality at source or intake may be measured in terms of changes to the physical, chemical and biological characteristic. The effects may be on depletion of oxygen levels, present of chemical content from industrial waste such as lead or high turbidity and colour. This project is to investigate the quality of raw water at intake point and treated water. It is done by taking samples and test the parameters required at the laboratory. Resolts from the laboratory test will be analysed and identified. Then, water quality at intake point and treated water will be determined. |
