Study of adverse effects of solid waste dump on groundwater in Enugu

The project area, Enugu and environs, is defined by Latitudes 60 14' 15" to 60 31' 20" North of the Equator and Longitudes 70 22' to 70 35' 20" East of the Greenwich Meridian. It covers towns and villages such as Ngwo - Enugu, Ukana, Oriemba and Ninth Mile Corner with Enugu urban at the Centre.\r\nThe cuesta is the dominant physiographic feature that trends North-South west of Enugu town. It acts as water divide for groundwater and surface water between the Anambra Basin to the west and the Cross River Basin to the east. The project area falls within the Anambra Basin and is geologically underlain by Agbani Sandstone, Enugu Shales, Mamu, Ajali and Nsukka .Physico-chemical interpretation of groundwater in Enugu
