In this research, the Water Quality Index (CCME) was used to determine groundwater suitability for drinking and domestic purposes. in the village of Shouira in Talafar district, northwest of Nineveh Governorate. This was carried out by subjecting 50 samples of groundwater to biological and chemical analysis. These parameters include pH, TDS, O 2 , T.A, Ca, Mg, Na, K, Cl, PO 4 , SO 4 , TPC, and F. Colif. The results show that groundwater is not suitable for drinking. It was found that the low value of CCME, which ranged between (17.9 - 32.7), is mainly due to the high value of most of the values of the measured parameters and the low oxygen values.
