Statement

The Groundwater vulnerability dataset has been developed primarily by the Environment Agency and Natural Resources Wales to show vulnerability of groundwater to pollutant discharged at ground level. It has been based on the hydrological, geological, hydrogeological and soil properties within a 1km square grid, and includes data from the British Geological Survey, Centre for Ecology and Hydrology and National Soil Research Institute.
