| Abstract |
Leachate is contaminated water which is produced when rain or other water passes through wastes in a land disposal site, picking up various mineral, organic, and other contaminants. If allowed to migrate from the site, leachate may contaminate ground or surface water and result in damages such as polluted wells or fishkills. The occurrence of such damages is directly related to the proximity of the resource to the disposal site, the direction of surface or ground water (leachate) flow, and dilution. This report is the second in a series of case studies documenting damages caused by leachate from municipal land disposal sites. Described are the history and type of operation, damages caused by leachate, remedial actions, and associated costs. |
