What is a single identifiable source of pollution?
Water pollution, it can cause serious problems like industrial wastes can.
What is nonpoint-source pollution?
Nonpoint-source pollution is contamination that originates from diffuse sources, such as runoff from roads, agricultural fields, and urban areas. It is a major contributor to water pollution and can be challenging to control because it comes from widespread and varied sources. Examples include pesticides, fertilizers, and sediment washed into water bodies by rainfall.
What are the mechanism of pollution?
Two principal mechanisms for water pollution are point sources and nonpoint sources. Point sources are specific locations of industrial discharge, such as a pipe that dumps into a river. Nonpoint sources is pollution that does not originate from a single point. Urban runoff and agricultural pollution are nonpoint sources.
Why does the government not do more to regulate nonpoint source pollution?
Nonpoint source pollution is difficult to regulate, because its source is difficult to track.

Three methods of nonpoint pollution control?
Implementing Best Management Practices (BMPs) to minimize runoff and control pollution from sources such as agriculture and urban areas. Constructing vegetated buffers along water bodies to trap and filter pollutants from runoff. Promoting public education and outreach programs to raise awareness about nonpoint source pollution and encourage behavior changes to reduce pollution at its source.
Is road runoff a nonpoint source of pollution?
Yes.
