RESUMEN
Considering the impacts of industrial effluents on the quality of water of many dams and rivers as reported in the literature, a study of water quality of Pench Reservoir (India) has been carried out. In the present work, physico-chemical parameters and bacteriological status are evaluated to determine its suitability for drinking and irrigation. From various parameters like pH, DO, BOD, COD, EC and minerals etc, it is concluded that the water is suitable for drinking. Also contents of chlorides, TDS, SAR, Na%, and RSC are within the limits accepted for irrigation, therefore, the water can be classified as fit for irrigation purpose.

Out of seven coal mines situated in Wardha River Valley located at Wani (Dist. Yavatmal), five open caste coal mines are run by Western Coal Field Ltd, India. The results of 25 water and 19 soil samples (including one over burden) from Nilapur, Bramhani, Kolera, Gowari, Pimpari and Aheri for their pH, TDS, hardness, alkalinity, fluoride, chloride, nitrite, nitrate, phosphate, sulfate, cadmium, lead, zinc, copper, nickel, arsenic, manganese, sodium and potassium are studied in the present work. Statistical analysis and graphical presentation of the results are discussed in this paper.

Seven coal mines are situated in Wardha River Valley. These mines are located at Wani (Dist. Yavatmal of Maharashtra). Out of these, 5 open cast coal mines are run by Western Coal Field Ltd. India. The present study has been undertaken to assess the impacts of mining activities in the adjacent areas. Total 25 samples of water and 19 samples of soil from Nilapur, Bramhani, Kolera, Gowari, Pimpari and Aheri were analyzed for pH, TDS, hardness, alkalinity, fluoride, chloride, nitrite, nitrate, phosphate, sulfate, cadmium, lead, zinc, copper, nickel, arsenic, manganese, sodium and potassium, and the results were compared with the limits of Indian Standards: 10500.
