Nonpoint source pollution is pollution that does not have a specific point of orign....................:-)Hisme John
Is surface runoff an example of nonpoint source pollution?
Yes, surface runoff is an example of nonpoint source pollution. It occurs when rainwater or snowmelt flows over the ground, picking up pollutants such as fertilizers, pesticides, and chemicals, and carries them into water bodies like rivers and lakes. This type of pollution comes from diffuse sources across a wide area, making it challenging to pinpoint a single source.
