A continuous point source of pollution is contaminating the aquifer. Observation wells were installed, and the water table slope is 0.0010. Pump test was conducted, and hy­draulic conductivity is estimated as 4.07 m/day (100 gpd/ft2). The porosity of the for­mation is 0.25. Estimate the distribution of contaminated groundwater after 10 years of leakage. Use a longitudinal dispersivity of 10 m (32.8 ft) and transverse dispersiv­ity of 1 m (3.28 ft). The contaminant is not absorbed by the formation (distribution coefficient is equal to zero).
