Abstract:

The following article describes the results of scientific research carried out during the period 2015-2017 years, which was devoted to assessing the efficiency of population’s centralized water supply systems, the quality of drinking water and predicting anthropogenic impact on the quality of the Chirchik and Akhangaran rivers’ water. It was realized that the level of supplying drinking water to population and the efficiency of water supply systems do not fully meet the requirements. The quality of drinking water and sources of water supply in some regions do not meet the standard requirements. As a result, the recommendations on modernization, increasing the efficiency of water supply systems and improving drinking water use conditions were developed in the Republic.
