Surface and groundwater geoecology in the Middle Urals: a case-study of Polevskoy and Kachkanar mining districts, Sverdlovsk region

The article presents the appraisal of surface water and groundwater in the territory of some mining districts in the Sverdlovsk Region. The main method of research is monitoring, which is understood as a system of observations aimed at predictive and environmental measures. The monitoring investigation network deployed at mines provides comprehensive information on the condition of surface and groundwater, and enables predictive appraisal and environmental impact reduction. The appraisal of surface and underground water was carried out using the data on maximum permissible concentrations in water bodies of fishery value as both underground and surface water resources are largely fed from man-made water bodies. The surface water appraisal is implemented as a casestudy of Seversk Reservoir in the Polevskoy district, Sverdlovsk Region and shows that the water body is in critical condition. The groundwater appraisal is undertaken in the area of Kachkanar mining cluster. An irregular trend change in the condition of groundwater in this area is revealed.

Keywords: water bodies, groundwater, monitoring, waste water, waste storage facilities, chemical analysis of samples, tailings dumps, monitoring wells.
