Groundwater pollution potential Sample Clauses

Groundwater pollution potential. In recent times, it has become more and more apparent that the local water resources are in great need of both management, such as withdrawal limits, and well placement, but also protection from pollutants and contamination. For this reason, the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Division of Water, was given the task of creating an evaluation/ranking system to determine the potential for pollutants to reach the groundwater in each of the counties in Ohio. Following this, color coded maps were created, also showing the potential for groundwater pollution. The intent for these maps and evaluation systems is that they be used by local planners or managers to better site locations of businesses, homes, or other operations so as to reduce the potential of contamination. The Grand Lake/Wabash River watershed consists of three ranges in similar proportions. The south shoreline of Grand Lake St Marys can be categorized in the ―moderately high‖ (140-159 range); the north shoreline of Grand Lake St Marys, the area encompassing Montezuma, Carthagena, and Chickasaw and southeastern Mercer County and northeastern Darke County lie in the region evaluated as ―moderate‖ (120- 139); and the southwestern section of the watershed lie in the ―moderately low‖ (100- 119) range. The full Groundwater Pollution Potential maps for Auglaize, Darke and Mercer counties can be obtained by contacting the Mercer Soil and Water Conservation District.
