Abstract

The Cipalabuan River serves as an ecosystem that provides habitat for many species and as a source of water for industry, agriculture, and drinking. However, growing industrial and residential activity poses a threat to the amount and quality of river water. The river has recently contributed to both liquid and solid waste, which has lowered the quality of the river's water. The Cipalabuan River flows through the city center from upstream to downstream, collecting pollutants from the discharge of local activities along the river's course, including liquid and solid waste. By monitoring and computing the water's quality at a certain location and time, this study seeks to ascertain the current state of water quality. In order to create a sequential explanatory design, a mixed method approach was used, mixing quantitative and qualitative methodologies in parallel. Water quality in the Cipalabuan River is influenced by a number of factors, including the actions of those who use the river as a disposal site, public ignorance of the need to control pollution, competing interests in the management of water resources, and a lack of cooperation between authorized agencies in the management of natural resources and the control of water pollution.
