The Waiting Pampang Reservoir open accessible general public including fishing activities. consequences if in this reservoir contains heavy metals will also accumulate marine biota (fish). If these fish are consumed, it have an impact on health. This study aims determine waiting city Makassar. Analysis metal content Hg,Pb,Cu Cd sample using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS) calibration curve method. Before samples were analyzed SSA, preparation was carried out wet destruction results analysis with SSA showed had exceeded threshold set 2011 Minister Health, namely mercury (Hg) 0.015, lead (Pb) 0.08, copper (Cu) 0.05 cadmium (Cd) 0. ,05. In conclusion, has maximum limit for contamination been government. It recommended add more sampling points water.
