This study was conducted to show how to manage the water quality of Kyung-an river. The water quality and hydrologic data were obtained at the main river and branch streams in March~April1998. First of all, we surveyed the contribution of branches for the pollution of water quality at Kyung-an river. It was in order of Kongiam(25.5%)>Yong-in Pollutant Treatment Complex (15.26%)^gt;Shin-won(13.99%)>Buen(11.86%)>Yangji(8.68%)>Yooun(7.43%)>Kwang-ju Pollution Treatment Complex(5.50%)>Osan(5.04%). The hydrological model using mass balance and BOD reduction formula suggested that if the quality of water Yoo-un and Shinn-won stream (branch streams of Kyung-an River) which is lowest in the basin is controlled adequately and outlet water from Yong-in pollutant treatment complex is adequately treated, the quality of Kyung-an river will be improved by 90% compared to current level.
