Protecting groundwater involves careful containment of any chemicals, fuels, or waste that may find its way through the soil into the groundwater. Run-off needs to be controlled and carefully considered before letting it flow freely into the environment. Household waste and chemicals should be disposed of properly, so they aren't able to soak into the earth.
Industrial and agricultural sectors also need to be considerate about where their waste is delivered. The chemicals and pesticides inside can cause serious damage to groundwater stores.
