The leachate produced by waste disposal sites contains a large amount of substances which are likely to contaminate ground water. The impact of such sites upon ground water can be judged by monitoring the concentration of potential contaminants at a number of specific monitoring points.Soil and groundwater samples were collected in the Deeg Solid waste landfill-site in district bharatpur(Rajasthan) to study the possible impact of solid waste effect on soil and ground water quality. The physical and chemical parameters such as temperature, pH, hardness, electrical conductivity, total dissolved solids, total suspended solids, alkalinity, calcium, magnesium, chloride, nitrate, sulphate, phosphate and the metals like sodium, potassium, copper, manganese, lead, cadmium, chromium, nickel, palladium, antimony were studied using various analytical techniques. It has been found that most of the parameters of water are not in the acceptable limit in accordance with the BIS,1991 and WHO, 2008 Drinking Water Quality Standards. It is concluded that the contamination is due to the solid waste materials that are dumped in the area. The study has revealed that the ground water quality does not conform to the drinking water quality standards as per Bureau of Indian Standards.
