Abstract
The report presents the results of a pilot study in the State of Idaho to identify the availability and usefulness of existing ground-water data to support the use of these indicators. Five ground-water quality indicators were investigated in the pilot study: Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) exceedances in ground-water based public drinking water supplies; On-site and Off-site contamination at hazardous waste sites; Volatile organic compound (VOC) concentrations in ground water; Nitrate concentration in ground water; and Pesticide use. In general, the study found that data characterizing four of the five indicators are available and that these data lend themselves to graphic display, as depicted in the report. Due to the lack of pesticide data collected by Idaho, no data on the indicator were available for presentation or discussion in the pilot study.
