Sažetak

The study of the effect of anthropogenic activity on the water quality was carried out in the western part of Lipjan (Kosovo). The software “Statistica 6.0” was used for calculations of basic statistical parameters and anomalies (extremes and outliers). The levels of some physicochemical parameters of groundwater are compared with the World Health Organization standards for drinking water. Our results show significant pollution (high values of electrical conductivity, total dissolved solids and consumption of KMnO4) of groundwaters as a result of anthropogenic activity coming from settlements, pollution of small rivers (Vodavoda and Grika) and wastewaters in the surrounding area.
