New York Groundwater
Contamination Attorneys

Groundwater contamination occurs when man-made products get into the groundwater and cause it to become unsafe and unfit for human use. Much of the contamination is caused by industrial or environmental pollution by companies who fail to take adequate safety precautions to protect the public at large.

Major Sources of Contaminants

• Storage tanks.
• Septic systems.
• Oil.
• Hazardous waste sites.
• Graveyards.
• Landfills.
• Road salts.
• Fertilizers.
• Pesticides
• Other chemicals.

Any number of things can happen that allow these contaminants to get into the air and water we breathe. For example, septic systems are used by homes, offices and buildings that are not connected to a city sewer system. They are designed to drain away human waste underground at a slow, harmless rate. However, an improperly designed, located, constructed, or maintained septic system can leak bacteria, viruses, household chemicals, and other contaminants into the groundwater.

Symptoms Caused by Groundwater Contamination

• Nausea and vomiting.
• Diarrhea.
• Headaches.
• Legionnaire's Disease - a respiratory disease characterized by pneumonia, headache, and dry cough.
• Eye irritation.
• Nose irritation.

Other Chronic Side Effects of Ground Water Contamination

• Cancer.
• Liver damage.
• Kidney damage.
• Anemia.
• Nervous system problems.
• Circulatory problems.
• Bone disease.
• Hair loss.
• Reproductive difficulties.
