	Groundwater Contamination
	Publication #: B-973 Date Published: 06/01/1993 Publication Author(s): Dennis Kaan Joe Hiller

Description:
Groundwater supplies more than 54 percent of Wyoming's population with domestic water, and more than 90 percent of rural domestic water comes from groundwater. Because groundwater is such an important resource to the state, it needs to be protected from contamination that could have detrimental effects on humans and the environment. Once groundwater is contaminated, cleaning it up is a very difficult and expensive process. Groundwater Contamination discusses how groundwater moves, the causes of groundwater contamination, how to detect contamination, and how to protect groundwater quality.
