Causes for ground water pollution are: *Improper on-site disposal of wastewater from domestic holds as well as from industries *Over extraction of ground water in coastal areas causing intrusion of sea water into ground water acquifer *Removal of top soil for construction activities, quarrying of minerals, etc. *Paving ground surfaces preventing rain water to percolate into ground water acquifer and thereby prevention of dilution of pollution in ground water *Improper sealing of wastewater treatment plants without properly determining the permeability of soil strata
