This project aims to resolve whether groundwater polluted decades ago is now seeping out along shorelines, and driving coastal water quality. The project will challenge common assumptions about the sources of chemical pollution to Australian coastal waters using a combination of cutting-edge analytical techniques, modelling, and laboratory investigations. The outcomes of the project will support the development of pollutant budgets and models required for the effective creation of water management solutions. As a result, the project will benefit the management of iconic waterways experiencing persistent, unresolved water quality issues which are costing the government billions of dollars.

该项目旨在解决几十年前被污染的地下水现在是否沿着沿着渗出，并推动沿海水质。该项目将挑战关于澳大利亚沿海沃茨化学污染源的常见假设，使用先进的分析技术，建模和实验室调查相结合。该项目的成果将支持制定有效制定水管理解决方案所需的污染物预算和模型。因此，该项目将有利于管理标志性水道，这些水道持续存在未解决的水质问题，政府为此花费了数十亿美元。
