Abstract/Summary
This is one of a series of information sheets prepared in relation to specific human activities which are of significant concern for the management of groundwater resources and protection of groundwater quality. The sheets aim to summarise the characteristics of each activity, describe the risk of each one impacting on groundwater, the possible approaches to their investigation and potential methods of control, mitigation or restoration. The purpose of the sheets is to raise the awareness of these issues amongst WaterAid Country Office staff, to provide guidance on taking the potential impacts of these activities into account in programme planning and implementation and on targeting monitoring and assessment efforts accordingly, and to encourage further thinking in the organisation on water quality and water management issues. Thethree sheets in this series (agriculture, industry and urbanisation) complement previous briefing sheetson specific groundwater quality parameters and for target WaterAid countries, and should be read inconjunction with these.
