Abstract
Jatiluhur Reservoir which dams up water from the Citarum River is used for aquaculture activities. The issue related to the water source of the Jatiluhur Reservoir originating from the Citarum River is the presence of heavy metal pollution that can pose a risk to humans who consume the fish. Carp (Cyprinus carpio) is one of the fishery products. This study aims to determine the relationship between chemical parameters of water quality and heavy metal content of Jatilhur Reservoir water, determine heavy metal content in carp (C. carpio), and risk assessment of carp consumption originating from Jatiluhur. Fish and water samples were taken from the farm during the rainy season in October, November 2020, and March 2021. The risk assessment was done based on USEPA (2000) method and used a risk ranger spreadsheet. The results showed that there was a relationship between BOD, COD, total phosphate and ammonia on the heavy metal content of Cd, Hg, and Pb. The risk assessment was based on the average level of fish consumption (0.04627 kg/day) and respondent body weight (63.5 kg), indicating that human health from consuming the fish is relatively safe, and based on the risk ranger the risk rating is 44 (medium).
