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
topics (OpenAlex): Groundwater and Isotope Geochemistry; Groundwater flow and contamination studies; Urban Stormwater Management Solutions
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.
