1.4 SCOPE OF THE STUDY
The scope of this project is the proper assessment of the contribution of hydrologic cycle to Otammiri River which include;
a. Assessment of existing surface water (Otammiri River during rainy season as a case study)
ï¶ Effects of common impurities in water
ï¶ Water quality and characteristics of water
ï¶ Beneficial use of water
ï¶ Study methodology, decision on quality parameters for analysis.
ï¶ Data presentation, calculation and discussion.
1.5 RESEARCH HYPOTHESIS
While
there is a considerable amount of water quality data collected for the
experiment, the timing and frequency of samples does not provide a
definite information on the degree which water quality is based. The
following was needed to determine the water quality conditions.
ï¶ Three different samples would be collected from difernt reaches of Otammiri River
ï¶ The samples should be taken undisturbed and moved to the laboratory immediately for proper analysis.
ï¶
The presence of the following should be determined; copper, zinc,
magnesium, iron, sulphate, phosphate, nitrite, chloride and sulphite.
ï¶
Also, the following should be determined; pH, conductivity, total
dissolved solids, total suspended solids, alkalinity, total hardness,
turbidity, total coliform, etc.
1.6 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
ï¶ This project provides an account on how to make hydrologic cycle and water quality fit for human use.
ï¶ The various treatment method of contaminated water
ï¶ It provides information on how the River is being contaminated along the reaches of the river.
1.7 LIMITATION OF THE STUDY
In the course of carrying out this project, some difficulties were encountered which includes;
ï¶ Unavailability of research material like test books
ï¶ Unsteady power supply that delayed the laboratories experiment
ï¶ Difficulties encountered when analyzing different water sample
ï¶ Non availability of equipment needed for water quality analysis.

ABSRACT - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]This Research or project is on the Assessment of the contributions of the hydrologic cycle to the water quality profile of Otamiri River. Since the quality of the River is polluted by the waste from different sources. This project or research which its objective is to find out exactly the contributions of the hydrologic cycle to the water quality of otamiri river and the health implications of these sorts department to the users of possible solutions to the problems observed in this cause of the ...
