Abstract
The physical and geochemical characterization of surface-water bodies (river, stream, pond) around an oil refinery at Bina, Sagar district, Madhya Pradesh, India was carried out to check plausible pollution/contamination caused by it during the pre- and post-monsoonal periods for risk-assessment and monitoring of environmental changes. The streams emerging from the refinery join Betwa river, a tributary of the Yamuna (south Ganga Basin). Various physical and chemical parameters were found to be above the acceptable standard international limits for drinking purposes.
