%X The increase of today's world population creates undesirable negative pressure on natural resources. Increasing urbanization with increased water demand and the underground water level to drop because it causes inadequacy of artificial and natural water masses and the decrease in the quality of our water resources.The rivers in Turkey are being used as discharge point for sewage, agricultural fertilizers, chemicals, industrial water. Water quality of natural water resources is falling by pollutant effects. The aim of this study was to obtain assessment the potential of drinking water of the K£¿z£¿l£¿rmak (part of Nevsehir) River. The water samples taken from the K£¿z£¿l£¿rmak River by seasonally. The mean concentrations of ammonium (1.59 mg/l), boron (0.18 mg/l) and arsenic (0.014 mg/l) were determined higher than the limits of drinking water standards while the concentrations of nitrite, nitrate, sulphate, aluminum, chromium, nickel, copper, and manganese were determined between and lower than TS-266 limit values. The river could be used as drinking water using appropriate treatment techniques.The increase of today's world population creates undesirable negative pressure on natural resources.
