Abstract:
|
The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of the sanitary landfill of the Public
Consortium CITEGEM, located in the municipality of Bom Progresso / RS, on the source of Erval
Novo stream. The distance between the Consortium and the source is 280 meters. The possibility of
environmental impact of the landfill is an object of insecurity since the Erval Novo stream is the
source that supplies the population of the neighboring municipality. Analytical reports on the quality of spring water, soil in the CITEGEM area, as well as on the groundwater monitoring network
installed in the Consortium were used for the diagnosis. The investigation resulted in the finding that
the groundwater flow does not indicate contaminant deflation from the landfill and soil analyzes did
not indicate the infiltration of contaminants. However, the source of the Erval Novo slab is out of
potability standards for characteristic indicators of contamination from agricultural activities. |
