Abstract
Shatt Al- Kufa (Kufa River) is the major supply of surface waters in Najaf; Water pollution as a result of human activities Different .Water pollution results when contaminants are introduced into the natural environment. releasing inadequately treated wastewater into natural water bodies can lead to degradation of aquatic ecosystems In turn, this can lead to public health problems for people living downstream. They may use the same polluted river water for drinking or bathing or irrigation. Water pollution is the leading worldwide cause of death and disease due to water-borne diseases. The method used for modelling the TSS spatial distribution is the empirical modelling Conversion From image pixel values to reflectivity the reflectivity of each TSS concentration was extracted the reflection (r) on the X axis and the TSS concentration on the Y axis were extracted. The purpose of this study is to determine the estimated concentration of total suspended solid (TSS) in the Shatt Al- Kufa as the result of Landsat 8 OLI. As well by correlating the measured and estimated TSS and concentration the data used in this study was collected from Shatt Al- Kufa (10 stations) on 22 April 2019. In conjunction with the Landsat 8 OLI image data, obtained from the USGS site. The results revealed value of TSS in Shatt Al- Kufa can accurately using band 4 (red band).The determinant Coefficient between TSS field and reflectance value of image using band 4 is 0.785.Root Mean Square Error band 4 is 4.5225 ,mean relative error is 1.1649.

The study area is located within Kufa district in Najaf province, 10 km .It located between the northern x/m (440485) y/m (3551386) to southern x/m (448061) y/m(3538978) in the Shatt Al-Kufa.as in Figure (1)
Summary
Water pollution is a serious problem for human health and the environment,and all people require good drinking water quality to maintain their personal well-being. Shatt Al- Kufa ( Kufa River ) is the great supply of water needed for drink, irrigation, industry and applications other. This river has shown decreasing quantity and quality of water because of population expansion and increased farming and urbanization; urban and farming wastes have been enlarged significantly and have made their way into the river. Issues with water quality have become more significant than quantity issues, making it necessary to conduct detailed studies to evaluate the suitability of this river for various purposes [2]. Total suspended solid (TSS) as a focus measure of water quality [6 - 8]
