The bacterial pollution of Diyala River (Iraq) was studied, especially the impact of Rustumiya station for sewage treatment. Surface water samples from Diyala River at Baghdad city of Iraq were collected in four seasons; summer, winter, spring and autumn of 2016, to examine the following parameters (Fecal Coliform Bacteria (FC), Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Fecal Streptococci (FS). It observed by the results that the proportions of the microbial pollution has exceeded the prescribed system maintenance Iraqi rivers, especially at the third station as the Diyala River has been affected greatly as posed streams Rustumiya station to the river, which negatively affects aquatic life on one hand and on the farmland on both sides the river on the other hand, where the river water used for irrigationDownloads
