Chemical and sometimes microbiological contamination of the soil cover, incl. and due to cross-border transfer processes. Spring water discharge points (moles) are often found near urban infrastructure, which adversely affects the condition of ground surface waters. The quality of soil and vegetation cover near the points of groundwater discharge may indirectly indicate the state of groundwater, therefore, monitoring of these covers is relevant [1]. In this regard, the aim of the work was to assess the quality of soil and vegetation cover near the outlet of spring waters. For this, initially it was necessary to analyze the soil and vegetation cover at the studied objects. In the course of visual observations of the soil and vegetation cover, the presence of soil animal species was found only in those habitats that provide a full range of conditions necessary for the manifestation of vital activity. And the results of vegetation identification showed that species diversity is interrelated with the level of anthropogenic impact. It is known that soil invertebrates, due to their natural qualities to quickly respond to changes in environmental parameters, are an informative indicator of the state of soil biota [2]. Plants, on the other hand, can serve as an indicator of the content of xenobiotics, which, upon entering the soil and through plant organs, can enter the groundwater from the soil cover. In the studied samples of the soil cover, exceeding the regulatory requirements for the following quality indicators was found: Ni2+, Zn2+, Cu2+, Cd2+. As a result of the analysis and systematization of data on the quality of soil cover, vegetation and the presence of soil fauna near the spring waters of Ivanovo during the study periods, priority pollutants were identified – compounds Cu2+, Zn2+, Mn2+, Ni2+, Cu2+ и Co2+. Consequently, this is precisely why soil and plant flora and mesofauna are sensitive to the reaction of soil solutions. With the help of plants and invertebrates, it is possible to simply monitor the state of urban ecosystems. In this regard, the use of soil and plant flora and mesofauna in the future will be one of the best methods for bioindication of the state of springs. Thus, using soil and plant indicators, it is possible to monitor and even predict changes in the OS (in behavior, changes in appearance, quantity and chemical composition).
