Abstract: The control of water resources management is credited to the good knowledge of the biological, hydrochemical and hydraulic equilibriums which condition the regional socio-economic future. The effluent of the cities bordering the watershed and the geological formation have obviously important consequences on this equilibria consequences. The physico-chemical quality checkup during year 2005, of the surface water of Oued Reboa and Koudiat Medouar watershed shows that this water is greatly influenced by geology, very graded in heavy metals (iron and lead) and very pronounced by strong contents in nitrates and ammoniums du to urban pollution. Hence 42 samples are taken and the analysis by main components with 18 variables has shown that the water is greatly mineralized and relatively poor in oxygen. This study allowed to examine the dissolution of heavy metals in function of simulated flows and to better master and control the dam water which is intented for drinking and irrigation.
