Abstract

In general, rivers in Indonesia have degradation both in terms of quality and in terms of quantity for biotic and abiotic factors, especially in urban areas. One of the problematic rivers in DIY Province is the Code River. The problem of the Code River in general is almost the same as other rivers in big cities in Indonesia, especially in terms of water quality.

Water quality of the Code River is generally categorized as heavily polluted when viewed using the Storet method and varies from light to moderately polluted when viewed using the Pollution Index method. The results of direct qualitative observations also show results that are not much different where the river looks dirty, there is a lot of garbage and even smells bad for some points.
