An Investigation of the Pollutant Sources of Godar khosh River

Abstract

Godarkhosh river is one of the border river s of the country which is very important in pro vidin g water to
the agr icalture sector of the area of study. In the present investigation 10 sampling stations were selected
to stud y the physico - chemical conditions of the river. Parameters of temperature, EC, S (ppt). pH, DO,
BOD and turbidity were assessed and anal ysed . The results clearl y show that stations NOs. I & 2 where
BOD amount is rather high are polluted. Almost due to self - purification potential to preven t ruth er
pollution, we recommend off loading prevention of sewages and also a solid monitoring plan .
