Microbiological and chemical analyses of 9 municipal groundwater wells were conducted in the study area. All samples showed no bacteriological contamination. Chemical analysis showed that the average TDS, Cl and Na values exceeded the WHO and PWA acceptable level: TDS ranged from 680.4 mg/l to 3106.6 mg/l, with an average value of 751.2 mg/1; chloride ranged from 179.3 mg/1 to 1231.5 mg/1 with an average value of 718.8 mg/1 and sodium ranged from 109.0 mg/1 to 680.0 mg/1 with an average value of 465.0 mg/1. Magnesium, calcium, potassium, nitrate and sulfate values are in accordance with WHO and PWA guidelines as shown in Table 5.
