Source Water Protection. Illinois EPA will continue to report annually progress toward source water protection measures and targets for FY2020.
Source Water Protection. What’s in It for You? - continued from page 26 Xxx Xxxxxxx served DEQ in the Construction Grants and in the State Revolving Fund programs that provide technical expertise in planning and designing wastewater treatment facilities, as well as the public financing for those plants. He retired in October 2005 to spend time with his grandchild, though he probably misses the excitement of reviewing plans and specifications and conducting O&M inspections, and no doubt misses writing the reports the most. Xxx spent over twenty years helping operators, managers and public works officials through his position here at DEQ. He presented training to operators; offered technical assistance and advised community leaders about system needs; and, brought needed real world experience to our government programs from his experience as an engineer in Los Angeles and other places. Xxx was well liked and respected throughout Montana by his peers for his calm deliberative demeanor and dedication to quality in the design, construction, and operation and maintenance of wastewater treatment plants. There is no question that we all enjoyed working with Xxx in this office and from the many comments received in my travels, was an outstanding public servant. Xxxxxx Xxxxxx retired from DEQ in October 2005 and was best noted for her service as the watershed information coordinator for the TMDL program here at DEQ. I was fortunate to have Xxxxxx as a friend and co- worker during all my nearly 15 years of employment for the state of Montana. She presented sessions at many METC workshops, bringing understanding and insight to the complex world of water. Xxxxxx was a teacher in her previous life before DEQ and it was clear in her training sessions that she knew how to bring mind-numbing data, numbers, charts and reports to life in showing how we all fit into this water environment. Operators could relate well to the necessity of preserving the natural water resources we have. For those of us that have worked with Xxxxxx, and those of you who sat in her training sessions, we all could sense her dedication to people and to our environment. I relied on Xxxxxx for many things as a friend and a co-worker, but maybe most importantly, we all relied on her to help set our environmental ethics compass. Xxxx Xxxxxxxxxx worked for many years as an operator for the City of Helena before he began working in the public water supply programs for DEQ and retired in November 2005. Xxxx served on the METC stee...
Source Water Protection. The Source Water Protection Program focuses on preventing contamination of both ground water and surface water sources of public drinking water. The Source Water Protection Program has two Regulatory Authorities and Stakeholders primary parts: Source Water Assessment and local Source Water Protection planning and imple- mentation. The state conducts a Source Water Assessment and identifies the area of the water- shed or aquifer serving one or more public water systems and assesses potential point and NPSs of contamination to determine the relative risk or level of concern they could pose to the public water system’s sources of drinking water to provide a platform for local protection planning. Each assessment must include four major elements:
Source Water Protection. DEQ contacts: Xxxx Xxxxxx EPA contacts: Xxxxx Xxxxxxx The Safe Drinking Water Act Amendments of 1996 provided resources to states to focus more attention on the source areas for public water systems instead of solely relying upon treatment to achieve clean drinking water. Approximately 75% of Oregon's citizens get their drinking water from public water systems. To address the assessment requirements of the SDWA, the Oregon Health Authority, teamed up with the Department of Environmental Quality. The two agencies have established a Memorandum of Understanding to coordinate their ongoing work. The two agencies have worked closely since 1998 to share the responsibilities of implementing the program. DEQ’s role in that work includes computer database/GIS system maintenance, contamination source inventories, surface water delineations, and susceptibility analyses. DEQ provides technical assistance to public water systems and communities to develop and implement drinking water protection actions. Source water protection is accomplished through the implementation of Clean Water Act (CWA). DEQ works to reduce pollutants in source waters through various point and nonpoint source control programs so that the source waters meet CWA standards. DEQ’s source water protection work is reported to EPA Region 10 in its annual reports. These annual reports are completed in conjunction with the OHA and include an accounting of the total population and public water systems that implement new source water protection strategies every year.
Source Water Protection. Indiana will continue to report annually progress toward source water protection measures and targets for FY22 and FY23. See the attached Measures and Indicators for FY22 and FY23 targets including an anticipated number of assessments that will be completed). - In FY22 and FY23 Indiana will continue to guide PWSs on completing or updating source water assessments. IDEM will update source water assessments as resources allow. - IDEM will work with other partners to protect source water. IDEM will collaborate with the Natural Resources Conservation Services (NRCS) on implementing the 2018 Farm Bill, which emphasizes protection of drinking water sources. During FY22 and FY23, IDEM will continue to collaborate with the Indiana Department of Health (IDOH) and Local County Health Departments on tackling arsenic and other water quality issues affecting groundwater, drinking water, and source water. - IDEM will continue to work with the Indiana Finance Authority (IFA) to provide assistance to CWS which utilize surface water as their source of drinking water. IDEM will continue to assist CWS with document development, outreach, and updates of Surface Water Threat Minimization and Response Plans (SWTMRPs) for which as indicated by Indiana Code 13-18-16-7.5 and requires updates every 5 years.
