Author(s):

Yaguba Jalloh, Kyuro Sasaki and Abu B. Jalloh

Majority of the population in Pepel depend on groundwater for domestic and other purposes. However, in spite of the high potential of groundwater in this region and the number of boreholes drilled by Aid Agencies, study reveals that there is still a serious problem with adequate availability and quality of groundwater supply. Water
samples from 35 selected borehole wells were collected from June – September 2016. Water samples were collected from each well for quality analyses within Pepel, Port Loko districts for Physicochemical and bacteriological analysis. The parameters tested are pH, Temperature, Color, Total Dissolved Solid, Conductivity,
Calcium, Nitrate, Manganese, Chloride, Fluoride, Iron, Copper, Turbidity and Sulfate. The result ob... view more»
