What is the lawsuit about? What does an industrial plant have to do with the Chesapeake Bay some distance away? How can this affect you?

Investigate ground water pollution and its effect on bodies of water. Investigate the FAQs and define the following terms:

Aquifer
Bedrock
Delmarva Peninsula
Groundwater
Lag-time
Nutrients
Pesticides
Pollution

Reservoir

Investigate the quality of a body of water near you. It might be the Chesapeake bay but could be a river, lake, or ocean. Start with the USGS site to find data on the body of water you have chosen. Look for data on how clean the water is, what pollutants are present. Write a 1 to 2 page report on the quality of water using cited data to support your information.

(For example, see how one group used USGS data to demonstrate the effects of water pollution on the Bay.)
