Plajköy spring discharges
at the close locations to the SE shore of Lake Hazar. Lake Hazar is a tectonic
Lake in Elazığ city. Plajköy spring is a fault spring that is mainly recharging
from the volcanites, dikes and blocky volcanosedimentary units of Middle Eocene
Maden Complex. These units have gained secondary permeability and porosity
related with the active tectonics that is effective in the studied area. The
present catchment system of the spring could not collect the springs and leaks
discharging from different points around the system. The discharge of the
catchment is measured by specifi c volume method while the other springs’ and
leaks’ is measured by using triangular weir. Before the discharge measurement
of the leaks and the springs, they have been directed to a channel. The
discharge of the present catchment system and the leaks have measured twice in
a month during one year period beginning from October of 2012 to November of
2013. The discharge coeffi cient of the spring is calculated 1.33*10-3 day-1.
Discharge coeffi cient of the spring depends on the geometry and intensity of
the active fracture systems in the region. Calculated discharge coeffi cient
indicates that the spring discharge is related with the narrow fi ssures,
fractures and pores. The total volume of discharged groundwater in the real
regime of the Plajköy spring is calculated as 52* 103 m3 during the period from
31st of March, 2013 to the 13rd of October, 2013 by Maillet formula. The spring
water is Ca- Mg- HCO3 type water related with the chemical analyses. The
chemical and microbiological analyses of the spring water are correlated with
the drinking water standarts of Turkey TS 266 (TSE, 2005) and World Health
Organization (2004), and it is seen that the spring water is suitable for
drinking. The Plajköy spring will be used more effi ciently without exposed to
pollution by the new catchment plan and protection zone map that are
consequently proposed in the present study.
