Importance  of water  for the  living  being  could  not  be neglected,  with  this view and the  impact  of the  reservoir from  the  ecological  and local  point,  this study  was carried  out. Reservoir  studied  is  located  at  Khandwa,  3  Km. away  from  city,  Khandwa  on  a  local  nallha  named  Barood  nallah.  It  is  a  rain  water  reservoir,  the  primary source  of  water  to  the  reservoir  is a  6.4 Km  long  canal  called  Ajanti  canal.  Analysis  of the  reservoir  water  is carri ed  out  to  observe  the  effect  of  de c re asin g  catc h me nt’s  are a,  du e  to  sil tation  an d  de c re asin g  wate r quantity  on  the  physico-chemical   condition  of  the  reservoir  water  and its  seasonal  variation.  Physico-chemical parameter  analyzed  were;  temperature,   pH,  turbidity,  transparency,  TDS,  silicate,  free  CO ,  DO,  BOD,  COD, total  h ardne ss,  Ca  h ardne ss,  M g  h ardne ss,  sul phate,  fluori de,  c hlori de  and  potassium  form  Au gu st  2006 July2007.  Statistical  analysis  of  the  obtained  data  is  carried  out  to  draw  conclusion.
