The following categories are used to further clarify the focus that each WHP measure provides as <br />well as help to organize the measures listed in the action plan: <br />Data Collection <br />IWMZ Management <br />Land Use Management <br />Potential Contamination Source Management <br />Public Education and Outreach <br />Reporting and Evaluation <br />Water Use and Contingency Strategy <br />9.3 Establishing PrioritiesWHP measures reflect the administrative, financial, and technical <br />requirements needed to address the risk to water quality or quantity presented by each type of <br />potential contamination source. Not all of these measures can be implemented at the same time, <br />so the WHP team assigned priority to each. A number of factors must be considered when WHP <br />action items are selected and prioritized (part 4720.5250, subpart 3): <br />1.Contamination of the public water supply wells by substances that exceed federal <br />drinking water standards <br />2.Quantifiable levels of contamination resulting from human activity <br />3. The location of potential contaminant sources relative to the wells. <br />4. The number of each potential contaminant source identified and the nature of the <br />potential contaminant associated with each source <br />5. The capability of the geologic material to absorb a contaminant <br />6. The effectiveness of existing controls <br />7. The time required to get cooperation from other agencies and cooperators <br />8. The resources needed: staff, money, time, legal, and technical <br />The ERMU defines priority for implementing a WHP measure as an action that directly <br />addresses a Potential Contaminant Source (PCS) which protects their drinking water supply from <br />contamination from the potential contaminant source.The following table lists each measure that <br />it will implement over the ten year period that the ERMU <br />priority that it has assigned to each measure. <br />13 <br />407 <br />
