Because waste disposal is a common source of ground - water contamination ,
understanding the physical , chemical , and biological processes affecting the
subterranean movement of contaminants is a key water - management issue .

Considering the 80 years of continuous waste discharge , the ground - water
contamination has been confined to a much smaller part of the aquifer than
would be expected for nonreactive contaminants at the estimated rate of
groundwater ...
