This study concerns the Guenitra Dam, located about sixty kilometers south of the capital of the Wilaya of Skikda (North-East Algeria), aims to identify the sources of pollution from the dam , analyze and interpret the physicochemical data from water samples in the basin of the Guenitra Dam and the different (tributary) wadis that feed it (Fessa, Cherfa, Magraman, Mellouh, Essouk). The determination of the origin of surface water pollution was carried out by comparing the physical parameters of the major elements and nitrogen components by the standards admissible by the OMS. The results illustrate that Wadi Magureman and Mellouh waters are infected by urban pollution explained by the levels of SO4 and agricultural (NH4 and NO2), while Wadi Chorfa is affected only by pollution of agricultural origin. On the other hand, Wadis Essouk and Fessa are affected by the dilution of the deposits reported in the region due to excessive values of Magnesium, Calcium and Iron.
