throughout Australia, with the commitment to continuous environmental improvement
through comprehensive and integrated public policy. The Purpose and Principles in the
Resource Management Act (1991) was to set out the philosophy and approach for water
management in Australia (Waterquality.gov.au, 2019). The purpose of the RMA is to promote
sustainable management, which is broadly equivalent to the ESD philosophy. The Guidelines
are also based on the policies and principles of the Australian National Water Quality
Management Strategy as explained in ANZECC and ARMCANZ (1994) (Yan et al., 2019). The
principles includes ecologically sustainable development, an integrated approach to water
quality management, including establishment of the environmental values and development
of management plans, community involvement in water resource management and
government endorsement of the water quality policy objectives (Meng, 2019). Four further
guiding principles have also been adopted by the Australian’s are: A coordinated and
cooperative approach to water quality management is vital and involves all spheres of the
community, government local and indigenous groups and the private sector. The high
variability and complexity inherent in natural water resources needs to be recognised and
taken into account when evaluating water quality or developing management strategies.
Water resources are special features of the environment and their quality and integrity should
be conserved and managed according to the intent of the Australian National Strategy for
Ecologically Sustainable Development, the Wetlands Policy of the Commonwealth
Government of Australia and the National Strategy for the Conservation of Australia’s
Biological Diversity (Waterquality.gov.au, 2019). Current research results shows the inter-
relationships between ecological processes, water quality and the biota and the dissemination
of these findings in a readily usable form which are essential for effective management of
water resources.
MATERIALS AND METHODOLOGIES
The Water Samples from Mars creek were collected from different sites in the morning hours
between 10 to 12 am in Polythene bottle regularly for every month. The Water samples were
immediately brought in to Laboratory for the Estimation of various Physico-chemical
parameters, like temperature of water and pH of water that were recorded at the time of
sample collection by using Thermometer and Pocket Digital pH Meter (Construction
Environmental Management Plan, 2019). Meanwhile other Parameters like DO, TDS, Free CO2,
