Initial
Splitting of the Plume

We have
demonstrated on previous webpages that pumping ground water from a well
will change the local ground-water flow regime. We have also demonstrated
that a plume of dissolved contaminants in ground water can be flushed from
the soil pores. It is because of these phenomena that it is possible to
split a plume of dissolved ground-water contamination into two discrete
plumes. There is often a considerable advantage to splitting a plume (if
you can't wait to find out about the advantage of splitting a plume click

REMEDY FOR SEEPS OF CONTAMINATED GROUND WATER". Remember to use
