Infiltration practices within the WHPAs will be carefully controlled to prevent any water <br />that has not been pre-treated from entering Rain barrels, grading, and other on -lot best <br />management practices should be utilized in these areas as long as the infiltration of street, <br />parking lot, or industrial runoff does not occur within the WHPA. Implementation of <br />community education programs for residential and business contaminant sources, such as <br />fertilizers and hazardous household products, will reduce the risk of groundwater <br />contamination from these sources. <br />The installation of monitoring wells throughout the WHPA would be appropriate to <br />protect the water quality of the upper aquifer. Should contamination occur, a network of <br />monitoring wells would help to quickly identify the contaminant source and aid in the <br />quick remediation and possibly reduce the extent of contamination. A monitoring well <br />network would also help to understand the relationship between the pumping in the <br />Franconia -Ironton -Galesville aquifer and the upper aquifer. The extent of any further <br />monitoring will be determined during wellhead protection plan development and State <br />water appropriation permitting. <br />20-6 <br />
