We hydrogeologically studied a mountainous area and its vulnerability to groundwater contamination. Groundwater flow and recharge occur mainly through a network of fractures in this areaTransmissivity and storativity obtained from slug, slug interference, and pumping tests range from 3.2$\times$10$^{-3}$ to 2.0$\times$10$^{-2}$$m^2$/min and 1.3$\times$10$^{-7}$ to 9.15$\times$10$^{-4}$, respectively. The groundwater was contaminated bylivestock activities in the upgradient. The groundwater in the downgradient residential area wasthreatened by the upgradient livestock activities.
