One source of clean water that can be used is rainwater. This quantitative descriptive study was to describe the quality of rainwater used as drinking water and the health conditions of the community at X Island, Kepulauan Seribu. Biological parameters (E. coli), chemical parameters Selenium (Se), Manganese (Mn), Fluoride (F), and Sulfate (SO4). Data collection on supporting parameters for treatment, condition and quality of rainwater harvesting used a questionnaire with a total of 90 respondents. Then, secondary data related to public health conditions with indicators of diarrhea and its relation to the incidence of stunting due to damage to intestinal villi and causing malabsorption of nutrients will be accessed from the Island X Community Health Center. After laboratory tests and univariate analysis, the quality of rainwater on X Island contains E. coli were detected and essential mineral concentrations were detected in very small amounts so it can be related to stunting due to mineral deficiencies and persistent diarrhea.

The quality of drinking water is a critical determinant of public health, particularly in densely populated urban areas. Waterborne diseases remain a major global health concern and are estimated to contribute to over 2.2 million deaths annually. This study aims to identify the distribution of drinking water quality by region, assess the level of drinking water quality, and evaluate its impact on public health in Depok City, West Java. The research was conducted using a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design. Data were obtained from field surveys previously carried out by the Depok City Health Office through structured interviews and laboratory testing of water samples. Drinking water quality data from 570 households were analyzed using correlation and spatial analysis. The results showed that approximately 97.5% of household water samples in Depok did not meet drinking water quality standards during the study period. About 94.1% of the water samples used for drinking had the potential to cause waterborne diseases. The factor significantly associated with waterborne diseases was types of occupation (p-value = 0.003). These results highlight the need for the local government of Depok City to implement routine water quality monitoring and enhance public awareness campaigns regarding safe drinking water management practices, as part of broader efforts to improve community health outcomes.
