Also water plays a vital role in this effective activity of the economical development, the purpose of this research is to study the pollution in the southwest area inYarmouk basin on three levels: chemical, chemi-toxical and the Bacteriological. The study was done on three different sites which are: the outlet of Almzereeb lake, Zeizoun spring, Daael Al-kadeem well. The results were as follows: The rates of the concentration of both the ammonium and BOD in Zeizoun spring and Al-mzereeb lake high, where they exceeded the allowed limits in the drinking water of Zeizoun spring.
