Notes:
Pollution of ground water to the point of crisis in Missouri can be eliminated by an awareness of geology, by planning, by adequate funding, and by authority to follow planning. Ground-water pollution hazards are widespread in southern Missouri where permeable soils and cavernous bedrock exist. Pollution in northern Missouri is more localized. All of the pollution in Missouri that we have attributed to geologic features could have been avoided if the polluters–municipal and private–had obtained adequate geologic information, used common sense, and supported waste disposal plans with adequate financing.
