Abstract
In the years 1989-1992, river water samples for physicochemicalanalyses were taken at 9 points of the Łabuńka river catchment up-stream of thegauging station of the Institute of Meteorology and Water Management (IMWM) inKrzak. These show differentiation in hydrochemical features controlled by the lithologyof the bedrock. Particular consideration was given to changes caused by municipalwastewater from Zamość. An attempt was made to determine the content of solutescoming from sewage.
