1. What contaminants were found in the surface water samples? What contaminates were found in the ground water samples?
The contaminants found often in surface water is waste and chemicals. The contaminants that are found in ground water samples are acidity due to deterioration of pipes and metals that are found in the ground.
2. Why might groundwater and surface water have a different contaminants?
There are specific contaminants that affect each area that are not in other areas such as rusty pipes in ground water. This is also why acidity is high in surface water than ground water.
3. Generally, farmers do not farm and industries do not build factories on the sides of mountains in remote wilderness areas.
Due to the absence of humans
