The main cause of pollution in Situ Pangarengan are from residential and other activities. Parameters BOD, COD and phosphate are exceeded the quality standard. The BOD quality standard is 3 mg/L while the BOD content is 2.33 mg/L-11.83 mg/L. The COD quaiity standard is 25 mg/L, the COD content in water ranges from 9.6 mg/L-48 mg/L. The quality standard for phosphate is 0.03 mg/L while the phosphate content in waters ranges from 1.36 mg/L-2.68 mg/L. The water quality status of Situ Pangarengan is 7.53 (moderately polluted). Pollutant load capacity of BOD is 26,787 kg/year, the existing BOD load is 57,770 kg/year. Integrated effort to prevent and pollution control are developing the potential of Situ Pangarengan as a water conservation and tourism area, structuring the lake landscape, providing understanding to the public about the potential of Situ Pangarengan as a supporting ecosystem for urban sustainability, regular dredging, implementing communal WWTPs and eliminating the entry of garbage into the lake, and maintaining the health of the lake.
