Abstract

Aghlaghan chie river of Nir city, is formed by confluence of 5 Bolaughlar springs, two of these springs provide potable water of Nir city. Various physico-chemical and biological parameters were taken into consideration during the course of study these includes DO, BOD, COD, pH, CaCO3, Total dissolved solids, Total coliforms and Fecal coliform. Based on the results of this study it is concluded that there is slight increase of pollutants in downstream of city in comparison to the upstream, hence it is an alarming positing of increasing pollution load in the river
