INTRODUCTION The assessment presented in this article is centred on investigating the interaction of turbidity, total suspended solids and total dissolved solids interaction within the water bearing aquifer of Obite to Oboburu communities of Ogba/ Egbema/ Ndoni local government area of Experimental and modeled turbidity, total suspended solids and total dissolved solids investigated are within recommended standard of World Health Organization revealing the reliability of model n in predicting groundwater parameters distribution upon influence of time, recharge, flow processes also in which the decomposed animals, vegetable materials, weathering products of rocks and minerals and soil ingredients [1-12]. Natural water are component of continuing cycle moisture evaporated from the oceans and other water surfaces is in turn precipitated in the form of rain, snow and hail. Some of this precipitation returns to water surface and falls upon the land .Some component of the water falling upon the land is used by vegetation, some through streams and lakes to the oceans, and some percolates into the ground. Water supplies are developed by the interception of the surface run off or by the collection of water which has percolated into the ground [6-12]. Hydrogical conditions related to rain fall, run-off, and percolation are factors of great concern in the development and purification of water supplies. Rivers Rivers State, State, Nigeria. Nigeria.

Figure 1, it is seen that an increase in turbidity was experienced from zero to one week before sudden decrease from greater than one week to two weeks as well as increase from two weeks to three weeks before sudden decrease from week 3 to week 4. The polynomial equation of the best fit is given as T = -0.122w2 + 0.497w + 0.981 with R2 = 0.219. The experimental concentration of the turbidity was compared with the WHO standard and the result shows an acceptable limit, indicating the reliability of the experimental result as well as acceptability of he groundwater interaction of Obite to Obuburu. The variation in the turbidity concentration can be attributed to the variation in time. The result presented in Figure 2 illustrate the comparism of theoretical, experimental and developed model based on Darcy’s law shows a good match indicating reliability of the developed model to monitor and predict the groundwater interaction between Obite an Obuburu in Egi clan of Ogba/Egbema, Indoni local government area of Nigeria. The variation in the turbidity concentration can be attributed to the variation in time. The linear polynomial of the curve was establishment as presented in Figure 2.

It is see that the total suspended solid (TSS) concentration of the ground water interaction between Obite and Oboburu decrease from zero week to one week before sudden increase in TSS concentration from greater than one week to four weeks as presented in Figure 3. The polynomial equation for the expression is given as TSS = 0.198w2 – 0.732w + 5.223 with R2 = 0.403. The variation on the total suspended solid can be attributed to the variation in time. The result obtained is within the acceptable limit of the World Health Organisation (WHO) standard. Figure 4 illustrate the comparison of experimental, theoretical and developed model based on Darcy’s law for Obite and Oboburu groundwater interaction. The variation in total suspended solid can be attributed to the variation in time as well as functional parameters.

From Figure 5 it is seen that the concentration of total dissolved solid increase from zero well to one week before sudden decrease from one week to two weeks as well as increase from two weeks to four weeks as presented in Figure 4.13. The polynomial of expression is given by TDS = 0.104w2 – 0.565w + 19.19 with R2 = 0.272. The variation in the total dissolved solid can be attributed to the variation in time and other functional experimental result of the total dissolved solid was compared with the WHO standard and result show an acceptable limit indicating the reliability of the experimental results. with ??= for of been generated parameters.
