This study aims to assess the water quality of the Lower Danube River (km 375 - km 175), in sections where
hydro-technical works took place for the improvement of navigation conditions. The samples were collected
for 36 months from 2011 2014 and the quality indicators according to M.O. 161 of 2006: thermal conditions
and acidification, oxygen regime, nutrients, salinity, specific toxic pollutants of natural origin, other relevant
chemical indicators and 4 hydrological indicators velocity, flow rate, level and turbidity were analyzed.
Quality indexes are mathematical tools that are designed to assess overall water quality. The final ICPM
value for month 34 is 86 % depicting an increased ecosystem pressure compared to the other evaluated
months showing ICPM values between 46 and 58 %.
Keywords: water quality, multi-parametric quality Index, Danube River
