Overview

Assessment highlights drinking water quality issues in Morang, showing poor dissolved oxygen and sanitation links.

Key Points

  • Groundwater quality in Gramthan revealed significant issues, particularly with iron and fecal coliform levels.
  • Dissolved oxygen was below the acceptable limit, while iron concentrations reached 1.5 mg/L, exceeding 0.3 mg/L recommended by WHO.
  • Observational analysis of 15 groundwater samples showed microbial contamination linked to inadequate sanitation practices.
  • Findings emphasize the need for enhanced water management and better sanitation infrastructure to safeguard public health.
