Abstract

Water has a very important role for human life. Water is a primary human need. In the past, water needs can be easily met from shallow groundwater sources, because it is thrifty and practical. The problem is in line with the development and the high population growth, soil water balance starts to be disrupted and the quality decreases. The study aims to see how big the use of shallow groundwater in the Banjarbaru Utara Sub district and then analyze it to determine the quality of the water. This research was conducted by direct field observation conducted by distributing questionnaires to the community. The results of this study found that the average shallow groundwater needs in Banjarbaru Utara Subdistrict amounted to 320 liters/person/day. While the annual requirement of 3,259,888 m3/year. Water quality is eligible for water that can be used as raw water for drinking water. Only the pH value is not eligible which is about 30.435%.
