“…Serious increased amount of sewage discharged into canals was presumed as main cause. According to the study on water quality from the water sources for consumption in Samut Songkhram province between 2012 and 2014, it showed that some parameters such as amount oheavy metals, DO and BOD were below the surface water standard [1]. Many heavy metal contaminations were found [2].…”

This research focused on wastewater management and community participation in Amphawa district, Samut Songkhram province, Thailand. Objectives of the research were (1) To investigate and assess quality of surface water and sewage at the sources before being discharged into main river and canals in Amphawa district, Samut Songkhram province. The study was conducted during October 2016–September 2017. A number of 40 surface water samples and 40 sewage samples were collected. Water quality of the samples were assessed following the Pollution Control Department procedure. The results showed that quality of surface water was likely good with pH, DO and amount of coliform bacteria under the PCD standard. BOD and amount of fecal coliform bacteria were slightly over the threshold and very high amount of NH3 was found. Sewage contained very low DO, extremely high BOD and slightly high TKN.
