ABSTRACT
The water diversion project is an effective engineering approach to overcome water scarcity as a water source for the area. However, the complex environmental conditions of long-distance water diversion bring many uncertainties for water security. In this study, we assessed the pollution condition and risk levels of emerging contaminants and traditional contaminants in the water and soil along a water diversion project in Tianjin. Then, we assessed the influence of eco-economic characteristics on environmental conditions and established a comprehensive assessment framework of water source sustainability by analytic hierarchy process (AHP). The results showed that excessive nutrient elements and heavy metal pollution mainly contributed to environmental problems in the water source area. Contrary to pollution assessment, the soil ecosystem was more subject to environmental pressure due to atmospheric deposition. The health risk assessment indicated that all contaminants had negligible non-carcinogenic risks for adults, with arsenic being considered a priority pollutant. The statistical analysis results indicated land use allocation was the most important factor in the environmental management of the water source area. According to the result of the integrated environmental assessment, the main characteristics of pressure zones were high pollution levels and human activity intensity. It is urgent to control agricultural pollution and allocate land use rationally for water source pressure zones. By considering the risks of traditional and emerging contaminants in water and soil, this study could support urban water source management and the sustainable development of the water diversion project.
