Groundwater withdrawals district Rotenburg (Wümme)

Groundwater is called the subterranean water in the Saturation zone in direct contact with the ground or It’s underground. Groundwater leading layers are called Aquifers. Depending on geological conditions, one or several aquifers are located on top of each other, whose individual Aquifers each through intermediate impermeable layers they are separated from each other. The groundwater is due to the filter system effective top coats well protected from impurities. However, there is also a threat to lower groundwater deposits due to continuous pollutant inputs, e.g. from air pollution, excessive application of fertilisers and plant protection products or from Contaminants can come from. In order to protect this drinking water, Groundwater deposits are explored, evaluated and constantly monitored. The removal of groundwater is generally subject to authorisation. This applies also for temporary construction water retention. GDI-NI
