Descripción
Sumario:This article is based on the description and evaluation of the exploitation and domestic use of groundwater, which are related to the sanitary services supply that population has. Tandil city has drinkable water net and sewer system, but those services do not reach all the city areas. This work analyses the case of the Cerro Los Leones neighborhood, which is located on the west of Tandil city, and does not have both basic services. The inhabitants of this area exploit groundwater by means of wells into the freatic aquifer, devoid of design parameters which ensure the sanitary protection of the acuifer. Moreover, because of the absence of a sewer system, the inhabitants spill their excrements in cesspits, done with equally few protection measurements, and those are located next to the pumping perforation in several cases. This situation of exploitation and use of groundwater, together with the social life conditions and the absence of planning and control by the authorities, generate significant impacts on water quality, in this case evaluated trough bacteriological parameters, and on the life quality of the population.
