Abstract
Increasing demands on the water resources of the High Plains area of West Texas and Eastern New Mexico have given rise to possibility of storing water underground. This would be accomplished by recharging the Ogallala Aquifer. Artificial recharge practices give rise to concern that ground water may be contaminated by pesticides and nitrates introduced with the recharge water. The report presents findings concerned with the fate of DDT and nitrate under actual recharge conditions in the Ogallala Aquifer.
