Abstract

The hydrogeological conditions of the Kuznetsk Coal Basin (Kuzbass) region are considered. Estimates of the safe yield and natural groundwater resources for this region are given. Better-quality groundwater are shown to be available for public water supply to some localities in Kuzbass. The applicability of mathematical modeling to forecasting the changes in the hydrogeological conditions caused by flooding of unprofitable mines is discussed.
