“…This new integrated water monitoring, warning and reporting system will allow water managers to protect the integrity of Egypt's vital water resources against any natural or anthropogenic threats, to implement immediate corrective and mitigation measures, and to report the suitability of water for designated beneficial water uses. Such a real time water monitoring network will lay the foundation for greater environmental security and water resource management [30].…”

“…Consequently, WQI was employed in Egypt; figure (1). Among these employments were, for example [2] who utilized this index to inspect EL-Salam Canal so as the Nile River WQ, in terms of drinking, irrigation, livestock and aquatic life. Likewise [3] employed this index to evaluate WQ of the main irrigation canals and drains, in Upper Egypt, during 2001-2004.…”

In the framework of assessing the applicability of RBF "River Bank Filtration" technique in Iraq, this research was originated in order to validate its applicability against International Standards, where CCME-WQI "Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment Water Quality Index" was selected. A previous research results were adopted [1]. Principally, literature was reviewed in the field of RBF applicability verification. The results of the previous research were implemented to calculate the Canadian index, where 17 parameters were selected. These were Turbidity, No2 , So4 , TDS, F, NH3 , Cl, Fe, Res cl, pH, DO, Alkalinity (Caco3), Total Hardness (Caco3), Ca, Mg, Mn and No3. Results were obtained; analyzed and plotted on graphs. From the graphs, apparent was that the WQI values ranged between 87 and 100, which indicated that the WQ "Water Quality" is within the acceptable range of the Canadian Standards that ranked the water quality, as "Excellent". Confident with the validation of RBF applicability, it was further recommended to inspect its sustainability.

“…The study area of this work includes four water ways, Figure 1, Rosetta branch (one of the main two branches of the Nile River) and El‐Mahmoudia canal represent two of the vital water resources for the Nile Delta and the western Delta regions. As general, the water quality status of the Nile River in Egypt has been investigated in many publications whether comparing measured water quality records against the national water quality standards for the Nile River (Amaal M Abdel‐Satar, 2005; El‐Sayed & Salem, 2015; Shamrukh & Abdel‐Wahab, 2011; Wahaab & Badawy, 2004), applying statistical tools (Awadallah & Yousry, 2012; Hamed, 2019; Khalil et al, 2011; Yousry & El Gammal, 2015) or using a WQI (Al‐Afify et al, 2018; Badawy et al, 2020; El‐Rayes et al., 2018; El Sayed et al, 2020; Elhdad, 2019; Elshemy & Meon, 2017; Goher et al, 2014; Hasaballah et al, 2019; Khan et al, 2008; M.

This research was initiated to assess and manage water quality status of fourteen surface drinking water intakes in El‐Beheira Governorate, Egypt. The study was conducted on four main branches of water resources in the governorate. Three water quality indices (WQIs) and two multivariate statistical techniques were applied, based on the Egyptian guidelines for the Nile River. Water quality records were collected for two successive years, 2014 and 2015, and were analyzed by descriptive statistics. The results revealed the critical water quality status of the four branches at the fourteen intakes. The multivariate statistical techniques returned the critical water quality conditions to the agricultural drainage and the domestic wastewater discharges. In addition, a new software application was developed to manage WQIs calculation. An urgent water quality monitoring and assessment system should be initiated for the drinking water resources all over Egypt, based on the developed water quality assessment techniques of this study. Practitioner points Three different WQIs and two different statistics tools were applied. Critical water quality status for the investigated surface drinking water intakes was reported. Agricultural drainage then domestic effluents are the main pollution sources. A new software application was developed to calculate WQIs to support decision makers.
