Groundwater pollution and public health in Great Britain
Abstract Aquifers are often perceived as sources of relatively pure water. However the quality of the groundwater in many aquifers is declining as a result of pollution. Some groundwater sources in Great Britian are reported as consistently or intermittently failing to meet published guidelines relating to the standards for drinking water. This situation is likely to get progressively worse in the future. Some of the most obvious sources of pollution and the implications for public health are reviewed.
