Research on the Impacts of General Planning Implementation on Groundwater Resources in Chengting New District, China

Abstract

Continual overdraft of groundwater resources for many years has led to continual declining of groundwater level in large scale areas in Shijiazhuang. Groundwater in Shijiazhuang City has been contaminated in varying degrees during its development and utilization due to no appropriate protective measures taken for groundwater resources. Groundwater pollution is severe in some areas, which poses a threat to sustainable utilization of groundwater resources and economic and social development. To protect groundwater resources effectively, a study on the impacts of general planning implementation on groundwater resources was carried out, including groundwater pollution sources, groundwater quantity and groundwater quality evaluation. The research results could provide scientific reference for development planning and sustainable utilization of groundwater resources of Chengting new district.
