Abstrakt: Brgy. Maypangdan and Brgy. Tabunan, 2 of the many barangays of Borongan City are one of the beneficiaries of the ABTIC extension program of the Biology department of Eastern Samar State University. The ABTIC extension program aims in developing the mangrove areas in the two barangays which has already started in Brgy. Maypangdan. Mangrove development has something to do with water quality, hence, this study was conducted. The physical and chemical properties of the water in Balacdas River, found in Brgy. Tabunan and Maypangdan River in Brgy. Maypangdan were determined in situ. Results revealed that the physicchemical profile of the rivers are in good condition, and that, all are within limits set by various departments in the environmental sector. Moreover, no significant relationship was found in almost all parameters except for temperature. Hence, this study suggest annual monitoring of water parameters in the area to further map the increase or decrease in the numerical data of the parameters and include additional factors of the rivers.
