A landfill is most likely to directly pollute ground water under the landfill
Explanation:
- Precipitation and surface runoff can carry chemicals from the dump into the groundwater. New landfills must include clay or synthetic liners and leachate (liquid from a trash containing pollutants) collection systems to protect ground water.
- Pollution can occur when garbage is put at a landfill and leachate percolates to the porous ground surface. Contamination of groundwater by such leachate renders it unfit for home water supply and other uses, as well as the aquifer beneath it.
