A newer version of this data is now available. This older 1990 - 2008 data consists of two polygon spatial layers available at a scale of 1:100,000. These are Groundwater Vulnerability Zones, and Groundwater Vulnerability Zones Drift. The data broadly define areas relevant to the protection of groundwater. The approach considers the vulnerability of the groundwater resources as a whole; and the specific importance of areas which for the catchments main sources of supply. Groundwater resources are assigned a vulnerability class [Groundwater Vulnerability 100K], based on soil type and the underlying geology only (e.g. depth to groundwater is not considered): - Variably permeable groundwater with low leaching potential - Variably permeable groundwater with intermediate leaching potential - Variably permeable groundwater high leaching potential - Highly permeable groundwater with intermediate leaching potential - Highly permeable groundwater with high leaching potential - Highly permeable groundwater with low leaching potential The Groundwater Vulnerability data is intended to be used to indicate where groundwater resources may be vulnerable from activities carried out on the surface land. Other information, such as depth of groundwater and thickness and type of overlying cover will always be required for a site-specific assessment. An assessment of the vulnerability of groundwaters to diffuse pollution is also included as the Groundwater Vulnerability Drift 100K spatial layer ('Drift' is transported rock debris overlying the solid bedrock) - it shows the distribution of low permeability drift deposits and should be used in conjunction with Groundwater Vulnerability 100K.

Aquifers previously designated as major and minor now become principal and secondary respectively. Users will still need to refer to the Groundwater Vulnerability maps if you are assessing activities on undisturbed natural soils (e.g. agricultural land) and need the soil classes. In this case you should disregard the old geological classes and combine the soils information with the new aquifer designations.
