How do the areas covered with concrete affect the availability of groundwater?

Solution

Areas covered with concrete affect the availability of groundwater because concrete forms an impenetrable layer on the ground. This reduces the seepage of rainwater into the ground which causes a reduction in the availability of groundwater.
