Water quality of surface runoff in loop two catchment area in UKM
Norshahkilla Izzatul Zaiedy1, Othman A. Karim2, Nurul Afina Abd Mutalib3.
For a country that is developing, there is a need to control and maintain the quality of raw water, with adequate quantities
to ensure continuous supply of clean water. In Malaysia, urban development activities especially constructions, is believed
to be one of the activities that contributes to the deterioration of the quality of surface runoff. The main objectives of
this project are to investigate water quality of surface water runoff at UKM’s loop two catchment areas and to observe the
effect of slope failure, erosion, and construction activities on surface water quality in UKM Bangi campus. Besides that, the
development of hydraulic models using HEC-RAS software is also the objective of this research. This research is conducted
through field study and laboratory works. The main findings confirmed that water quality and total surface runoff in
the catchment is directly affected by slope failure, erosion, and construction activities. Results from HEC-RAS modeling
revealed that the drains surrounding the lake are not overflowing or flooding.
