Abstract
Masala lake is situated 6 Km. away from Chandrapur. The present study has been made to investigate the physico-chemical parameters of the lake. The present study was carried out from the month of Aug. 2006 to Jan 2007. Samples were collected on monthly basis from three sampling stations S,,S, and S,. The physico chemical parameters like temp., pH, conductivity, DO, COD, BOD, free CO,, chloride, total hardness, Ca hardness, Mg hardness, phosphate, sulphate, nitrate, nitrites, carbonates & bicarbonates were analyzed during the course of study. The study revealed that as compared to site S, and S,, site S, showed higher concentration of sulphate, phosphate and bicarbonates during month of Nov and Dec 2006 and were recorded low during the month of Aug and Sept 2006 may be due to dilution, site S, shows more TDS value because of domestic activities. In all there is definite impact on the water quality due to domestic and agricultural activities.
