It looks like there's a typo. Corrected sentence:

- "Saltwater intrusion can cause the water in wells to become contaminated with saltwater."

Other natural phrasings:
- "Saltwater intrusion can cause well water to become saline."
- "Saltwater intrusion can contaminate groundwater used by wells with seawater."

Brief note: Saltwater intrusion happens when seawater moves into freshwater aquifers (often because of excessive groundwater pumping or sea-level rise), making well water brackish or unfit for drinking.
