This study investigates the water issues as they relate to social and economic development in Nigeria, West Africa. The study evaluates the quality of surface drinking water sources in selected highly polluted areas to define the extent of pollution. It accounts for human activities as they relate to water pollution and water-borne diseases, and identify both structural and non-structural Best Management Practices (BMPs) for pollution abatement. The structural BMPs are potential technology that could be manufactured in Nigeria. The study finally suggests a Water Access Awareness Program (WAAP) to educate the people on the problems. © 2008 ASCE
