Gajahwong River is one of the nine rivers in the Special Region of Yogyakarta Province. During dry season,its water quantity has been decreasing so the water flow is insufficient to dilute the pollutant from sewage and affecting the water quality. Some pollutant parameters that have exceeded the quality standard in the Gajahwong river are including BOD, COD, TSS, phosphates, and total coliform. The study is expected to show the relationship between the water quantity and water pollution parameters and how to mitigate it. Water availability at the river was analyzed by using Mock model and the result was presented in flow duration curve. Climate data including rainfall for 12 years period from 2001 to 2012 were collected.Thecondition ofriver water quality was analyzed using Pollution Index Method. Results show that dependable flow at 80% probability was 0.80 m3/s. Water quality conditions in the Gajahwong River from upstream to downstream have declined at moderately polluted level. During 2007 to 2012 the level of TDS, TSS, DO, COD, detergents, oils, and fats, and fecal coliform has decreased. The concentration of water quality parameters was increased like BOD, phosphate, and total coliform that causing polluted water. The concentration of TSS, BOD, COD, phosphates, detergents, oils and fats, fecal coliform, and total coliform exceeds the threshold of water quality standards class II.

<strong>Aim:</strong> The purpose of this study was to determine the status of water quality in a river by using the Pollution Index method as stated in the Decree of the Minister of Environment No. 115/2003 regarding Guidelines for Determining the Status of Water Quality and to determine the effect of quality status on development efforts towards ecotourism. <strong>Methodology and Results:</strong> The measurement of water quality was carried out at two points, namely T1 (upstream) and T2 (downstream) points. The parameters included BOD, COD, DO, TSS, Temperature, pH, Zn, S, P, No3, and No2. From the test results for class I, II, and III criteria, almost all parameters exceeded the quality standard. The status of the river water quality, according to the Pollution Index, has increased from moderate polluted upstream and heavily polluted to certain parameters downstream. <strong>Conclusion, significance and impact study: </strong>The quality standards that are met for the river are criteria for class IV. The increase in pollution is indicated by human activity around the river which is characterized by increasing population and land use in agriculture and plantations. The increasing pollution reduces the quality of the river if it is developed into an ecotourism area due to its low water quality status.
