<p align="justify">Saguling reservoir is an artificial reservoir located in West Bandung regency at an altitude of 643 m above sea level and serves to stem the Citarum River which is the largest river in West Java. Upper Citarum River has detected the organochlorine insecticide, it is feared that organochlorine insecticides accumulate in Saguling which is the first dam to stem the Citarum River. This is very worrying given Saguling has greatly affect to the lives of many people. This study was conducted to estimate the value of organochlorines fugacity (DDT, aldrin, dieldrin, endrin, heptachlor, lindane and endosulfan) in each <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> environmental compartment, such as in water, sediment, fish, aquatic plants, and mollusks by using Fugacity models. From calculation result, organochlorines fugacity in the air compartment ranged from 4,33.10^-17 to 1,6.10^-9 Pa, on the soil 3,69.10^-19 to 3,79.10^-10 Pa, in the water 1,29.10^-11 to 1,47.10^-4 Pa, in sediments 3,8.10^-12 to 8,01.10^-12 Pa. Organochlorines concentration in the air compartment at Saguling Reservoir ranged from 6,9.10^-13 to 5,3.10^-7 ppm, on the ground 1,3.10^-10 to 2,0.10^-6 ppm, in the water 0.0005 to 0.007 ppm, in sediments 0.4 to 9.17 ppm, in the fish of 0.001 to 0.2 ppm, in the aquatic plant 0.0006 to 0.07 ppm, and in the mollusk is 0.0002 to 0.03 ppm.<p align="justify">
