“…Work to identify and assess different sources of contamination to drinking water gave 56 mg/l of coliforms in water before treatment and 54 mg/l in raw water from Ain Zada Dam of Bordj Bou Arreridj, Algeria (Aidoud et al, 2019). In another report on microbial analysis in wells in a study to assess the impact of abattoir effluent on the quality of ground water in Omu-Aran, Nigeria showed a concentration mean of 23100 mg/l way above this study's levels of 2215.21 mg/l (Elemile et al, 2019).…”

Purpose: Wastewater from abattoirs, municipal, agricultural and industrial effluents is a major source of environmental pollution as they consume large amounts of fresh water for meat processing and hygienic purposes. The main objective of the study was to assess the quality of the effluent from Keekonyokie and Kiserian slaughterhouses and its effect on the quality of water in Kiserian dam. Methodology: The parameters measured were pH, total suspended solids, total nitrogen, total phosphorous, dissolved oxygen and fecal coliforms (E. coli). Samples were collected from 4 sampling sites three times a week for three months. SPSS (ANOVA) for their significant differences. One-sample t-test used to compare the parameter means with NEMA 2006 standards. Pearson Correlation used for correlation among the parameters. Findings: The mean fecal coliforms 2215.206 mg/l, Phosphorous 47.379 mg/l, Nitrates 36.71 mg/l, TSS 387.57 mg/l which were above the standards of NEMA 2006 of nil, 2, 2 and 30 mg/l respectively while DO was 8.58 mg/l and pH 6.86-7.0 both of which were below the NEMA 2006 standards of 30 mg/l and 6.5-8.5. The results of all parameters were significantly different among the sites (p=0.00). There was significant difference between the parameters and the NEMA 2006. ANOVA results on parameters showed the all coliforms increased with increase in rainfall with the highest levels in September with a mean 18662.7 mg/l and in July with the lowest of 12962.5 mg/l. Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The study can be used by slaughterhouses developers and management on slaughterhouse wastewater treatment. To be used by slaughterhouses licensing authorities on SWW requirements before licensing. To be used by Public Health Department for disease surveillances and Water Regulatory Management Authority on domestic water treatment.

Climate change has clearly affected the desert city of Bechar, located in southern Algeria, and this miserable situation for the supply of drinking water prompted the authorities to provide capabilities and funds to bring groundwater located 250 km away and transfer it to the city of Bechar. The characterization of these underground waters presents a bicarbonate-magnesian facies according to the diagram of Schöeller and Berkaloff; the representation of the data on the triangular Piper diagram shows that Boussir ground water has the magnesium bicarbonate facies. The calculation of the quality index (GWQI) shows that all samples taken from the boreholes belong to the good quality category. The long distance of diversion of this underground water and the quality of the materials used in the project under a dry desert climate made us carry out the process of monitoring and tracking the quality of the water from the well until it reaches the consumer. The results revealed that all the levels of the physic-chemical parameters do not exceed the WHO portability standards, except that a variation of certain values was observed at the level of the storage tank, this variation due to the mode of filling and the mixing of water in tubular form, without eliminating the effect of water stagnation. If we technically know how to produce high-quality drinking water, we cannot always ensure a safe and sustainable water supply of the same quality in distribution networks and reservoirs; it is from this principle that our article is based in order to reinforce the monitoring role.
