Hypothetical Illustration of Contaminant Sources and Exposure Pathways
Detailed Description
The Environmental Health Mission Area's Water and Wastewater Infrastructure Science Team is providing science to understand multiple sources of contaminants and pathogens, how they are transported in watersheds and aquifers to the point of exposure in homes and businesses. This hypothetical diagram depicts possible sources and exposure pathways on the landscape and the subsurface.
