What are long term effects of groundwater pollution?
Groundwater pollution impairs the beneficial uses of groundwater for both current and future generations. Typical beneficial uses include municipal and domestic drinking water supply; industrial supply; agricultural supply; and surface water recharge. Groundwater flows spreads pollution away from the source area, further impairing the groundwater basin. Examples: A petroleum storage and distribution operations has leaked gasoline, MTBE, benzene, and other chemicals know to cause cancer into the groundwater supply. The leak went undetected for several years. The plume of chemicals has traveled over a mile. The basin is unfit for drinking water supply and threatens a nearby river. Agriculture has historically over applied fertilizers. Nitrates and salts in the fertilizers are highly mobile and do not degrade over time. The pollutants accumulate in the groundwater, over time concentrations exceed acceptable thresholds established by the US EPA.
