I can't think of a lot of ways, but when paving it involves a lot of chemicals. A filed usually involves grass or sand. Something leading to the ground. Chemicals are able to soak into the ground water comes from the ground. Water also travels through the grounds into local rives, oceans, lakes etc so the chemicals being used can spread through out those environments, hurting animals, and maybe even people when swimming or drinking it.

Answer:

Runoff into storm drains increases

Explanation:

I got this correct on the quiz.

So the precipitation runs over the concrete into the storm drains instead of into the gorund.
