Survey of Ground Water Contamination and Waste Disposal Practices: Task Group Report
In an effort to expand the vision of Task Group 2450 R, and to provide it with a means of collecting information on groundwater contamination from all areas of the country, a questionnaire survey was started in 1952. Repeat surveys of all states were made in 1955, 1957, and 1960. The compiled results up to 1957 were presented in a report published in the JOURNAL in 1957. The information presented in this paper was collected primarily from the 1960 survey and supplemental information furnished or brought to the attention of the task group by those who responded. The paper summarizes the types and seriousness of groundwater contamination reported in several representative states that include: Michigan; Massachusetts; New Mexico; Missouri; Virginia; Minnesota; New York; and, Rhode Island. Survey conclusions indicate that although many states are exhibiting a growing interest in the elimination of undesirable waste disposal practices, the interest is not great enough in view of the continuing practices which are hazardous to private and public water supplies. The frequency of syndet detection in private water supplies has indicated a need for closer regulation of waste disposal practices and the location and construction of water wells.
