Groundwater management involves the careful monitoring and regulation of underground water resources to ensure they remain sustainable and accessible for future generations. This includes assessing water availability, preventing over-extraction, and protecting against contamination. Groundwater is crucial for drinking water, agriculture, and ecosystems. Effective management practices may include regulations on water use, promoting water conservation, and restoring natural recharge areas. By balancing human needs with environmental health, groundwater management aims to maintain the quality and quantity of these vital resources.
