Aquifer Interconnections

Term · Environment · MLC-T-ENV-002018

Subsurface conditions that allow two or more aquifers separated by aquifer boundaries to be combined into a single aquifer; subsurface conditions must demonstrate that the aquifer boundaries separating the aquifers do not or would not impede the flow of ground water and hazardous substances between the aquifers. Aquifer interconnections are evaluated within two miles of the site and in areas underlying contamination attributable to the site.
