Abstract

Conducting an analysis of the current state of prevention of emergency situations related to the danger of groundwater in the territories that have been affected by military actions, namely systematic missile and artillery damage in today’s conditions is an urgent scientific and practical task.

The purpose of the study was to conduct an analysis of the world experience in the prevention of emergency situations in the territories that suffered missile and artillery damage, in the context of determining the danger of groundwater.

An array of violations of the state of safety and quality of groundwater, which were caused by military actions, was formed. An analytical review of the main factors of the spread (migration) of pollutants in groundwater was carried out. The methods and approaches of monitoring and forecasting the state of safety and quality of groundwater in the context of solving the problems of civil protection of territorial communities are analyzed.

Having analyzed the scientific developments, it is possible to claim that today there is no universal methodology for assessing the safety of groundwater in the territories affected by the war in order to prevent emergency situations. A significant part of the work is carried out within the framework of determining the vulnerability of aquifers - forecasting the safety and quality of drinking water. The development of new organizational and technical methods of emergency prevention in the territories that have suffered missile and artillery damage, based on complex forecasting, monitoring and modeling of the danger of groundwater, should be based on unified methodological positions, regarding the place and role of the processes of prevention, prevention, localization and liquidation in the structure of the general process of combating emergency situations, which were previously tested in a number of works on the development and implementation of organizational, operational engineering and information methods for the prevention of emergency situations of various types of occurrence and spread.
