The location of the Semuong River which is close to mining and human activities such as settlements will generally cause environmental problems such as water quality degradation. The research was to determine the Samuong river water quality based on its physical and chemical parameters. This research was conducted from November to December 2019 with sampling locations in the Semuong River and analysis done at the Environmental Laboratory of PT. Unilab Perdana. Water sampling was carried out at five stations, namely left, right, main, upstream and downstream Lunik.
