Abstract: The study was conducted in order to provide preliminary information on the physico-chemical, biological and bacteriological status of Nabao Lake in Cabiao, Nueva Ecija Philippines. The lake was categorized as hypereutrophic based upon low Secchi disc visibility reading (< 100 cm), low level of DO (<5 ppm) and high level of phosphorus (>0.1 ppm). Identified algal genera in the lake such as
Ankistrodesmus,
Chlorella,
Closterium,
Synedra,
Euglena and
Phacus were considered to be indicators of organic pollution. The water and soil of the lake had a very high total bacterial count (TBB) and total coliform count (TCC).
