Evaluation of physical - chemical contaminants in Lumbardhi River in Prizren for the period May - June 2017

This paper covers the monitoring of water pollution in the river basin from the source to the White Drin flow monitoring the river flow both in the rural and urban areas of water quality. The biggest problem in environmental protection is the quality of surface water. The results from the analysis of the study will serve to know the pollution from these physical-chemical parameters and at the same time to manage the eco-status in order to prevent negative trends and create a desirable balancing of so important the ecosystem as it is the system consist of Lumbardhi River, with biodiversity still maintained. The purpose of the work is to know the pollution of the Lumbardhi River during the period May-June 2017 as we think during that period of time there is a larger water flow due to the atmospheric rainfall and melting of the snowfall from the mountains because the river source is from an altitude of over 2500 meters and has an extension of 37 km to its discharge into the next river. On the other hand, based on the ecological condition and the physicochemical characteristics of the Lumbardhi River during time intervals, will serve as a starting point for integrating them into the management plans and if necessary for the programs, measures and environmental protection activities that should be undertaken to prevent our river pollution as we are dealing with a river that runs through the middle of our city and if clean, it would increase the beauty of our city with its landscape. So, the samples for analysis have been taken in four sample locations with different distances that are marked with L1, L2, L3, L4 and the same ones will be presented in our fig. The analyses are done at the hydro meteorological institute of Kosovo Pristina
