At Ground Water Company, we offer specialized Ground Water Remediation Services customized for the fragile and sensitive ecosystems of Uttarakhand. Combining hydrogeological expertise with environmental science, we help identify, contain, and reverse groundwater contamination—bringing clean and safe water back to communities that depend on it for drinking, agriculture, and everyday life.
⚠️ Why Uttarakhand Needs Ground Water Remediation Urgently
From polluted springs in the hills to nitrate-heavy wells in the valleys, groundwater pollution in Uttarakhand is no longer a distant threat—it’s a growing reality. Fragile recharge zones, lack of sanitation infrastructure, and growing tourist pressure are degrading vital water sources.
💢 Local Groundwater Contamination Problems in Uttarakhand
🦠 Microbial Contamination from Wastewater
– In towns like Mussoorie, Nainital, and Almora, seepage from septic tanks and open drains is entering springs and borewells.
– During the monsoon, runoff worsens the contamination, especially in densely built hill towns.
🧪 Fluoride, Iron, and Heavy Metals
– Natural geological formations in Pithoragarh, Chamoli, and parts of Bageshwar release fluoride and iron into groundwater, posing chronic health risks.
🌾 Agricultural Runoff in the Foothills
– Areas like Udham Singh Nagar and Haridwar face groundwater pollution from overuse of fertilizers and pesticides, leading to high nitrate levels in drinking water.
🚧 Solid Waste Leachate from Unplanned Dumping
– Urban sprawl without proper waste disposal, especially near recharge zones in Dehradun and Haldwani, is creating long-term aquifer contamination.
