Abstract

     In the recent times, especially after the country has cross over the unstable political circumstances and recreates a new government and great governmental efforts have been done to reclaim and develop new agriculture areas within the Million and Half Million Feddan project. In this issue, many settlements and communities have been established. This study aims to groundwater quality assessment based on the hydrogeochemical properties, and drinking water quality index (DWQI). The physico-chemical parameters indicated that the TDS value of groundwater samples varies between 280 mg/L in Tokh Dalka to 910 mg/L in Zenara. The DWQI findings revealed that most groundwater samples are not recommended for drinking use, where about 52 % of groundwater samples was excellent quality, about 44 % of groundwater samples were good quality, and 4 % of samples are poor quality.
