This study is done to monitoring the occurrence of nutrients and bacteria in urban river (Kerayong River) water. Six different sampling stations were choosen along Kerayong River. The water sample was taken using grab samples. The collection was conducted from April 2015 to October 2015. Based from the result in this study, Kerayong river has high concentration on total phosphorus, ammoniacal nitrogen and E-coli due to high urbanized area along Kerayong River.
