Daftar Isi:
- Water supply for domestic purposes is not sufficient to meet the need of the .major part of rural and urban population in many tropical countries. This unfavourable condition is likely in parallel with the population growth and the development of urban and rural areas. Therefore, the water supply system for domestic purposes should be reevaluated. This study covers occurrence of water suitable for domestic purposes, development of water demand as a function of population growth, possibilities to improve and develop water supply system in the study area. Based on the physical environment, the study area can be divided into six zones with different conditions of water resources and the existing water supply system. The six zones are grouped into three major zones for sampling purposes. In each major zone an urban centre and its surrouding rural areas have been chosen as sample areas to investigate the water supply characteristics and their problems. The sample areas cover coastal area, volcanic slope area, and folded sedimentary area. Serayu River Basin offers a fairly representative transect in term of conditions encountered in the central portion of Java
