Comments/Observations/Problems: In 1993, the information was reported by wellhead protection areas (Step 1 = 141, Step 2 = 141, Step 3 = 24, Step 4 = 139, and
Step 5 = 141). The 141 WHPAs represented 71 systems. The number of systems listed for Step 3 and 4 are estimates based on the ration of systems to WHPAs. Although
source inventories have not been completed for all WHPAs, communities taking limited interim management measures under existing authorities based on preliminary
information, even though towns do not have regulatory authority under the Aquifer Protection Area Program. In 1995 and 1997, Step 1 was not tracked. The reason there
are numbers for 1993 is based on the statement that all the WHPAs that were delineated had active public involvement.
