Abstract | This case study is a classic example of a water company facing increasing nitrate contamination of its groundwater resources. The pollution is mainly the result of farming activities in the catchment. Potential “cheap” solutions such as blending the water from different sources are increasingly difficult to undertake due to the extent and increase in contamination. As a result the water company has two options: the treatment option or a catchment management approach. |
