THINK IT THROUGH Having solved the water depletion problem in your state, your next task is to deal with pollution of the groundwater that provides your state’s drinking water supply. Recent studies have shown that one-third of the state’s groundwater has levels of pollutants that violate EPA standards for human health, and citizens are fearful for their safety. What steps would you consider taking to safeguard the quality of your state’s groundwater supply, and why?
