Abstract
<p>Groundwater quality, a pivotal aspect of environmental health, is characterized by the absence of physical, chemical, and biological contaminants. While physical parameters such as temperature, turbidity, color, taste, and odor contribute to the assessment of water quality, the primary focus is often on its chemical and biological attributes. This study navigates the intricacies of groundwater quality, challenging the perception of spring water or groundwater products as inherently "pure." Drawing on Musa's insights (2013), which delineate the nuanced differences between pure water and the qualities inherent in groundwater, the research aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the chemical and biological dimensions that shape the overall quality of this vital resource</p>
