The aim of the article is to develop a method for calculating water losses from irrigation channels in determining the permeability of rock in the zone of filtration flow on the basis of the law of infiltration A.N. Kostyakov using the results of studies of free filtration from pits and foundation pits in loess loams. Pressure movement of water in irrigation canals is subject to the laws of two-phase flow, in which – in contrast to the Darcy law for the zone of saturation plays an important role, the volume and its change in time. The filtration rate (VF) increases with increasing rock moisture (θ) along the S-curve, while the pressure gradient (I = dh/dz) decreases. The dependences of these parameters on the pressure are represented by power functions, and their product CDP = VFI does not change in time and can serve as a characteristic of the filtration flow under the channel. When installing paired piezometers near the water chore line in the channel and determining the graph I(t) by the value of the twophase flow constant CDP, it is possible to calculate the filtration rate at a number of times and the water losses during unsteady filtration. Water losses from the channels at equilibrium humidity increases with increasing head according to the formula A.N. Kostyakova, in which the water permeability of rocks is characterized by a steady filtration rate at a head of 1.0 m, and the gradient is the function of pressure. The application of the proposed method of calculating losses in the design of irrigation systems will increase the reliability of the justification of the volume of anti-filtration measures and the forecast of the groundwater level.

This study takes a look into groundwater quality at Ugbor Dumpsite area using water quality index (WQI), 2-Dimensional (2-D) geophysical resistivity tomography and vertical electric sounding (VES).The geophysical resistivity methods employed revealed the depth to aquifer, the geoelectric layers being made up of lateritic topsoil, clayed sand and sand. Along the trasverse line in the third geoelectric layer of lateral distance of 76 m to 100 m is a very low resistivity of 0.9 to 13 m from a depth range o f about 3 to 25 m beneath the surface- indicating contamination. Water samples were collected and analyzed at the same site during the raining season and during the dry season. The value of water quality index during the raining season was 115.92 and during the dry season was 147.43. Since values at both seasons were more than 100, it implies that the water is contaminated to some extent and therefore poor for drinking purpose. The Water Quality Index was established from important analyses of biological and physico-chemical parameters with significant health importance. These values computed for dumpsite area at Ugbor were mostly contributed by the seasonal variations in the concentrations of some parameters, such as, conductivity, total dissolved solids, hardness, alkalinity, chlorides, nitrates, calcium,  phosphates, zinc, which showed significant differences (P<0.01 and P<0.05) in seasonal variation.
