3 Introduction The Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) Amendments of 1996 require states to implement Source Water Assessment Plans (SWAP) to better protect public drinking water from contamination. The Missouri Department of Natural Resources (MoDNR) has developed a guideline for SWAP implementation in Missouri. The identification of potential contamination sources in areas that might affect a public drinking water source is an important component of this plan. These contaminant inventories must be completed by May In November of 1998, the Public Drinking Water Program (PDWP) at MoDNR contracted with the Center for Agricultural, Resource and Environmental Systems (CARES) at the University of Missouri Columbia to develop and implement strategies for performing source water inventories. Task Review Task 1. Quarterly reports discussing progress with respect to tasks. These reports will be submitted in final form by September 30, 2000, December 31, 2000, March 31, 2001, and June 15, 2001, respectively. A separate final report will be submitted July 15, This report fulfills Task 1. Task 2. Maintain the list of databases to be georeferenced. The specific number of databases will remain flexible. Agency/University staff will jointly determine the inclusion/exclusion of any database. Databases from MoDNR programs will be included. (Ongoing) Appendix A, List of Data Bases Reviewed, contains the databases collected to date for SWIP. Task 3. Acquire suitable base map information (DOQQs) for areas to be inventoried. (Ongoing) Now, CARES has DOQQs available for the entire state. All 5,023 DOQQs have been acquired and are available for use in this project. Task 4. Geographically reference the records in the selected databases. Initial location will be based on information provided in the databases. Improved positional information may be derived from Digital Raster Graphics (DRGs) of USGS topographic maps, Digital Orthophoto Quarter-Quadrangles (DOQQs), other aerial images, regional office visits, on-site reconnaissance, or Global Positioning System (GPS). (Ongoing) No new databases were acquired. Records from previously acquired non-geographic data bases are being located in the field. Most records in these database are already georeferenced within other databases. Task 5. Continue to cooperate with DGLS on source water area determinations. (Ongoing) Task 6. Map source water area contaminant inventories for community systems using groundwater. This will involve integrating data acquired from statewide databases with information collected from on-site visits. Inventory reports, by system, will be generated and provided to the Agency. 3

4 Source water area contaminant inventories have been completed for 210 wells in 132 systems this quarter. These have been located in Atchison, Barry, Carroll, Christian, Franklin, Gentry, Greene, Harrison, Holt, Jasper, Jefferson, Lawrence, Lincoln, Mercer, Nodaway, St. Charles, St. Louis, Stone, and Worth counties. A total of 2281 potential contamination sources have been verified within these source water areas. This includes 903 sites from existing databases and 1378 sites found in the field. Figure 1 shows the areas of activity since CARES initiated the source water inventory process in May To date, source water areas for 1,492 of 2,654 wells have been inventoried resulting in approximately 15,391 verified potential contaminant sources. Water tank and water treatment plant locations have also been verified during the contaminant inventory process. A total of 122 water tanks have been verified this quarter. Eighty-nine of the water tank locations collected were new (not already present in the water tanks layer). A total of 12 water treatment plants were located this quarter Field data collection has consumed a total of 27 days this quarter. An average of 85 potential contaminant sites, 15 wells, and 5 tank verifications were performed per day. This number varies with the density of human activity in the source water area. Up to 235 contaminant sites have been collected in a single day. To report this information to MoDNR, CARES has set up an FTP site on the internet. The site is updated monthly and allows MoDNR personnel to retrieve the information at any given time. It contains copies of all the original databases used in the project (see Appendix A) as well as location information for wells, tanks, and contaminant sources verified from on-site visits. The FTP site address is ftp:// The construction of a website is well underway, but more work is needed before it is completed. The goal of this website is to make available the results of this project to the public through an Internet Map Server. Also, similar to the MoDNR VA Project, CARES has established a map-making site for printing and download. This features maps of the source water inventory area, well data sheets, potential contaminant source data sheets, and potential contaminant source summary tables. There is a working version at This webpage contains working versions of both the SWIP IMS and SWIP Maps. Source water mapping for surface water systems has also continued this quarter. This was a carryover task from the FY2000 project. This process involves heads up photo-interpretation of DOQQs. All of the mapping has been completed. Once the source water mapping is complete, the maps need to be field checked for accuracy of landuse designation. To do this, sectional printouts are generated for each watershed. These include the DOQQ photo base, the land cover interpretation lines and codes, and a legend describing the coding system. Appendix B shows the watersheds that are designated to have land use data developed under SWIP. Roughly 16 of the 66 watersheds have been returned and many of those have been corrected and are completed. The status of mapping and printout delivery is also shown. Task 7. When expedient, georeference records in the selected databases outside the source water areas. Areas with high concentrations of non-community wells, many database records, or near community source water areas will receive high priority. Only a handful of records outside the source water areas have been georeferenced. In all cases, this applied to sites within one-half mile of the source water area boundary. 4
