Abstract

AbstractSource control is regarded as a key principle in supporting concepts of sustainable management and integrated pollution control for diffuse non‐point stormwater runoff, with infiltration procedures being a prime component of such source‐control systems. The potential conflicts between the benefits of groundwater recharge and the risks to long‐term groundwater quality uncertainties associated with infiltration disposal are considered. The long‐term performance of a number of infiltration systems is reported in terms of their pollutant removal efficiencies, and the utility of an infiltration acceptability matrix approach is reviewed.
