| Abstract : This study was carried out from 6 th December 2008 to 5 th April 2009 . In order to ascertain the drinking water quality in Hilla city for human consumption, bacteriological and physiochemical characterizations were evaluated. The data for bacterial counts showed that the total aerobic bacteria count (TAB) were between 0-70 /100ml, total coliform (TC) 0-2/100ml , fecal coliform (FC) 0-2/100ml , fecal streptococci (FS) 0-2/100ml , while for physiochemical analysis revealed that the chlorine were between 3-5.8 mg/L, turbidity 2.8 - 7.5 NTU, pH 6.9 -7.5 and biological oxygen demand (BOD) 3.1 - 14.8 mg/L. These findings indicated that the water after treatment at the plants was suitable for human drinking, but at the points of use in houses was unsuitable for drinking during the study period. | ||
