Cikapundung river is one of the tributary in Citarum Hulu Watershed that has a length of 28 km. Upstream area of Cikapundung River has a lot of livestocks that mostly discharged their waste to the river directly without any treatment. Pollution from livestock waste can decrease the water quality and reduce the function of Cikapundung River, especially as raw water source for local drinking water company, PDAM Kota Bandung, in Bantar Awi and Dago Bengkok intake. The results of water quality measurement shows that BOD, COD, total phosphore, and ammonia in Bantar Awi and Dago Bengkok intake didn’t comply the Class I raw water standard from Government Regulation No. 22 year 2021. This research was conducted for indentification and inventory of wastewater pollution from livestock waste in upstream of Cikapundung Sub Watershed, determine the contribution of livestock pollutant load to total pollution load, determine the projection of livestock pollutant load in upstream of Cikapundung River, to do pollutant load mapping, and to determine livestock waste management in upstream of Cikapundung Sub Watershed. The result of identification and inventory shows that livestock pollution sources in upstream of Cikapundung River for Bantar Awi measurement point are the whole area of Suntenjaya, Cibodas, Wangunharja, Cikidang, Cikole, Kayu Ambon, and Cibogo, and some parts of Jayagiri, Langensari, Mekarwangi, Cipanjalu, and Ciburial. Livestock pollution sources for Dago Bengkok measurement point are the whole area of Suntenjaya, Cibodas, Wangunharja, Cikidang, Cibogo, Langensari, Kayu Ambon, and Mekarwangi, and some part of Jayagiri, Cipanjalu, Ciburial, Ciumbuleuit, and Dago. The contribution of livestock sector for water pollution in Bantar Awi was 41,11% and for Dago Bengkok was 40,11%. Potential pollutant load from livestock waste in upstream of Cikapundung River was projected to increase on 2021-2025 so livestock waste management is required.
