Point pollution source |
|
Definition Pollution from discrete or definable points, as opposed to pollution from broad areas.
Description Pollution from a well-defined and specific source e.g. leaking storage tank, a landfill, an unlined stormwater canal etc.
Why is point source pollution important? Point source pollution is simpler to identify and manage the effects thereof than non-point source pollution.
