Abstract: This is a descriptive cross- sectional study which was carried out at Elobied town in the period   2012 -2014 to assess the turbidity and residual chlorine of vended water quality. 55 samples were collected for analysis of turbidity and residual chlorine from vended water. The calculation of samples according to (1) samples per (10000) population, plus 10 additional samples (W.H.O 1993). Turbidity reached 90 NTU, The results illustrates high turbidity of vended water, where residual chlorine concentration was from (0.00 – 0.02 mg/l), which was not match with the W.H.O guidelines and SSMO (2007) recommend that the turbidity after treatment must be 5NTU or below.

Time and Place Limitation: This study was carried out during 2012 to 2014 at Elobeied Town North Kordofan State - Sudan.

Constrains:  The  natural  constrains  (Personal hygiene , Winds,  rains  and  floods  which  affect in samples reading).
