Abstract

The report by WALHI in 2016 showed that based on the quality status of the Musi River water in Gandus District is in abad status, which means that it has been polluting, which can come from the high activity of citizens and industry in the riverbank on that river.Geographic Information System (GIS) as a system that can collect, store, transform, display and correlate spatial data and geographic phenomena, can be used to obtain the pollution spread based on water quality. The purpose of this research is to find out the physical and chemical quality distribution the water of Musi River in the Gandus district by using the Geographic Information System (GIS). This research is a descriptive study with the survey methods. Determining point sampling of river water using purposive sampling technique, Research held in Gandus district consist by5 kelurahan namely Kelurahan Pulokerto, Kelurahan Gandus, Kelurahan Karang Anyar, Kelurahan Karang Jaya and Kelurahan 36 Ilir. Sampling refers to SNI 698957-2008 and a instantaneous sampling method (grab sampling), with the total of sample are 20. The results of the research are the status of pH, temperature, Tubidity, BOD and COD are still under the quality standardsbased on Pergub No. 16 Tahun 2005 aboutWater supply and quality standard of river water, but for the consetration of ammonia in all sampling locations exceeds the quality standards. The results of the GIS analysis showed that the majority of pH spread is at the acid degree, temperature 30 ° C, turbidity meter < 50 NTU, BOD > 1.500 mg/L, COD > 5.000 mg/L and the average concentration of ammonia is 0.420 mg/l. In conclusion that based on the parameters of pH, temperature, turbidity, BOD and COD water quality of the Musi river in the district Gandus is good but for the ammonia parameter showed poor quality. Suggestion for residents and industries around the waters of Musi River in Gandus district is to maintain the cleanliness of the river and reduce the activities that can pollute the river.
