Abstract
In April of 1984, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) received a petition from the Seven Lakes Water Association (SLWA) requesting sole source aquifer designation for the Association's service area in west central Snohomish County, Washington. The SLWA intends to utilize sole source aquifer as one means of protecting their ground water resource. It is referred to in the report as the 'Tulalip Aquifer'. The report describes the characteristics of the aquifer area and evaluates the area against criteria for sole source aquifer designation. Specific topics discussed are: (1) the boundaries of the aquifer area as proposed by EPA; (2) hydrogeologic characteristics; (3) ground water and surface water consumption; (4) water quality; (5) potential for contamination; and (6) the availability of economically feasible alternative sources of drinking water. The report summarizes information available to EPA as of April 1988; no additional field studies were conducted.
