The ideal goal of complete protection of underground drinking water sources is probably economically and physically infeasible. Relatively few of the nation's drinking water wells have been contaminated, and the most serious instances of contamination can be controlled with proven techniques such as impounding plumes of contamination behind slurry walls or draining and pumping the plume.
