Aquifer Protection

Aquifer protection refers to the measures and practices aimed at preserving and safeguarding underground water sources, known as aquifers. These natural reservoirs supply drinking water and support ecosystems. Protecting aquifers involves preventing pollution from chemicals, waste, and other contaminants, as well as managing land use and water extraction responsibly. This ensures a sustainable supply of clean water for communities and the environment. Effective aquifer protection requires collaboration among government agencies, local communities, and industries to implement guidelines and policies that maintain the health of these vital water resources.
