Nitrate contamination in groundwater on an urbanized dairy farm
ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY, 42(13), 4683–4688.
MeSH headings : Bromides / analysis; Chlorides / analysis; Dairying; Environmental Monitoring / statistics & numerical data; Flow Injection Analysis; Magnetics; Nitrates / analysis; Nitrogen Isotopes / analysis; North Carolina; Urban Renewal; Water Pollutants, Chemical / analysis; Water Supply / analysis
TL;DR:
The isotope and Cl/Br ratios indicate that nitrate contamination in these drinking wells are not from septic systems, but are the result of animal waste leached from pastures into groundwater during 35 years of dairy operations which did not violate any existing regulations.
