Hi,

a)Look over there, There is a dirty water stagnation.
'Stagnation' is not a count noun. You can't say 'a . . . stagnation'.
You don't really need to say 'dirty water', because 'stagnation' implies the water is not clean.
The most natural thing is to say, 'Look over there. Water is stagnating'.
