Physio-Chemical and Biological Analysis of Radaur-Ladwa
Stretch (Western Yamuna Canal)

This paper deals with the suitability of Surface and Ground water quality of Western Yamuna Canal in Haryana, India for irrigation and other use. The major water use of this canal is for irrigation purpose (94%), domestic water use (4%) and industrial and other uses (2%).The rapid increase inurbanization and industrialization is leading towards deterioration of water quality. In this study, analysis is performed to identify the groundwater and surface water quality in the vicinity of Radaur-Ladwa stretch. Direct disposal of domestic and industrial wasteobstructs the flow of Western Yamuna Canal thus water is stagnant at most places and self-purification mechanism of water is occurring no more. This study reveals that the surface water of the Western Yamuna Canal comes under E class of water, which is unfit for domestic use, propagation of wildlife and fisheries. However it is found suitable for irrigational and industrial cooling purpose only. Most Probable Number (MPN) values are high in the ground water, which indicates microbial contamination of water and require immediate action for up-grading existing treatment facilities.The result indicates alarming signs and suggests immediate response for policy along with adaptation and mitigation to bring at full stop to contaminating activities. If water contamination is continued likewisea time will come soon that the water qualityof Radaur-Ladwa stretch (Western Yamuna Canal) will be unfit for irrigational purpose too.

Status of Ground Water Quality in The Village of Pedurenan, Mustikajaya District, East BekasiSanitation and poor hygiene practice and unsafe drinking water contributes to 88% of childhood deaths from diarrhea in worldwide. For children who survive often suffer from diarrhea contribute to nutritional problems, preventing children to be able to achieve their maximum potential. According to the Basic Health Research (Riskesdas) in 2013, the incidence and prevalence of diarrhea for all age groups in Indonesia is 3,5% and 7,0%. Respectively the incidence of diarrhea is closely associated with the quality of sanitation and groundwater used by society. This study aimed to determine the quality of water used for sanitation especially groundwater, in Sub Pedurenan, District Mustikajaya, East Bekasi. Results showed that groundwater quality inspection using the Most Probable Number (MPN) in RW 02, Village and District Pedurenan Mustikajaya, there were 4 samples were negative of coliform, and 25 coliform positive samples, with the highest number of 1100 cells / 100 mL. This indicates that ground water for sanitation and groundwater of sampling locations are generally contaminated by coliform bacteria.Keywords: groun water, coliform, diarrhea, water quality, MPN ABSTRAK Sanitasi dan perilaku kebersihan yang buruk serta air minum yang tidak aman berkontribusi terhadap 88% kematian anak akibat diare di seluruh dunia. Bagi anak-anak yang bertahan hidup, seringnya menderita diare berkontribusi terhadap masalah gizi, sehingga menghalangi anak-anak untuk dapat mencapai potensi maksimal mereka. Menurut hasil Riset Kesehatan Dasar (Riskesdas) tahun 2013, insiden dan prevalensi diare untuk seluruh kelompok umur di Indonesia adalah 3,5% dan 7,0%. Kejadian diare sangat erat kaitannya dengan kualitas sanitasi dan air tanah yang digunakan masyarakat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kualitas air yang digunakan untuk sanitasi serta air tanah khususnya di Kelurahan Pedurenan, Kecamatan Mustikajaya, Bekasi Timur. Hasil menunjukkah bahwa pemeriksaan kualitas air tanah menggunakan metode Most Probable Number (MPN) di RW 02 Kelurahan Pedurenan dan Kecamatan Mustikajaya, terdapat 4 sampel yang negatif coliform, dan 25 sampel positif coliform, dengan jumLah tertinggi 1100 sel/100 mL. Hal ini mengindikasikan bahwa air tanah untuk sanitasi dan air tanah di lokasi pengambilan sampel umumnya tercemar oleh bakteri coliform.Kata Kunci: Air tanah, coliform, diarrhea, Kualitas Air, MPN

Abstract The environmental assessment of the surface water quality of the Western Bug River has been made using the system of classification quality of land surface water of Ukraine in accordance with the approved methodology, which allows comparing water quality of separate areas of water objects of different regions. The calculation of the environmental assessment of water quality has been carried according to three blocks: block of salt composition, block of trophic and saprobic (ecological and sanitary) indicators and block of indicators of content of specific toxic substances. The results are presented in the form of a combined environmental assessment, based on the final conclusions of the three blocks and consists in calculating the integral ecological index. Comprehensive studies of changes in the water quality of the Western Bug River have been conducted within the territory of Ukraine for a long-term period. The water quality of the river on the final values of the integral indicators of the ecological condition corresponded mainly to 4nd category of the 3rd class – the water is “satisfactory” by condition and “little polluted” by degree of purity (except for points of observation that located within the Volyn region, where the water quality corresponded to 3rd category and the 2nd class. It is “good” by condition and “fairly clean” by the degree of purity). Visualization and part of the analysis are performed using GIS technologies in the software of the ArcGIS 10.3.
