The potential problems are reduction of river base flows, the cessation or reduction of natural flow from artesian wells, the intrusion of fossil saline groundwater into the abstraction zone, and the periodic drying up of springs and private groundwater supplies.

A severe drought could diminish the supply, and contamination.

Wells aren't too reliable, if the water table is lowered your well may become useless - it could also become contaminated.

I would think pollution and the supply drying up would be two.
