Arsenic Contents in Buried Valley Aquifers In UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI Date: 11/15/2005 I, Alejandra Bonilla___________________________________________, hereby submit this work as part of the requirements for the degree of: Master of Science in: Geology It is entitled: Geochemistry of Arsenic and Sulfur in Southwest Ohio: Bedrock, Outwash Deposits and Groundwater. This work and its defense approved by: Chair: Dr. Barry J. Maynard Dr. David B. Nash Dr. Warren D. Huff “Geochemistry of Arsenic and Sulfur in Southwest Ohio: Bedrock, Outwash Deposits and Groundwater” A thesis submitted to the Division of Research and Advanced Studies of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE in the Department of Geology of the College of Arts and Sciences 2005 by Alejandra Bonilla Ramos. B.S., Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, 2002 Committee Chair: Dr. Barry J. Maynard ABSTRACT Located in southwest Ohio, the Mason and also the Lebanon Correctional Institute (LeCI) drinking water distribution systems obtain their water from the Shaker Creek “buried valley” Aquifer. The Pleistocene valley contains glacial outwash material and some lake clays incised into the limestone-shale bedrock. Analyses were done in water, aquifer material and bedrock samples. The results of arsenic in water ranged from 4-18 µg/L, and show that many of these samples are above the USEPA MCL. Thus, both systems have concerning arsenic levels. Arsenic analyses in the bedrock and glacial outwash material ranged from 4-40 ppm. Therefore, arsenic in the groundwater could be sourced from the glacial aquifer material and/or from the surrounding bedrock. The bedrock geology of the area of study consists of Upper Ordovician-Lower Silurian limestones and shales of southern Ohio and northern Kentucky. The bedrock formation studied and that partly influence the water chemistry in the Shaker Creek buried aquifer is the Kope Formation. Stable isotope analysis of sulfur was used for this study. Many of the geochemical characteristics of arsenic are analogous to those of sulfur, because both elements occur in reduced and oxidized forms and the oxidation states change as a result of biological processes. Biogenic reduction is the dominant form of sulfur fractionation in nature and is mainly a product of sulfur reducing bacteria. The present thesis is focused in two main parts. First part covers the study of arsenic in solids and sulfur isotopes were used to calculate sedimentation rates in the Kope Formation. Second part includes the study of arsenic in groundwater and its source in the Shaker Creek Aquifer. This study presents a model of the possible sources and mechanisms of arsenic in groundwater. Sulfur isotopes were used to provide a chemical i assessment and a comparison of sulfur isotopes in the bedrock with dissolved sulfur in the aquifer as a test for arsenic release by pyrite dissolution. ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I want to express my deepest gratitude to the Department of Geology, University of Cincinnati for all the financial and moral support for my Masters project through the Wycoff Scholarship and summer URC.

  • OKI Regional Bicycle Plan Is a Component of the Region’S Multi-Modal Regional Transportation Plan
    OHIO-KENTUCKY-INDIANA REGIONAL COUNCIL OF GOVERNMENTS (OKI) REGIONAL BICYCLE PLAN EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The OKI Regional Bicycle Plan is a component of the region’s multi-modal Regional Transportation Plan. The Regional Transportation Plan contains a summary of the existing bicycle facilities and of the recommendations for improving cycling conditions in the region. Towards this end, it is the vision of the Regional Bicycle Plan that vehicular travel by bicycle become an integral mode of travel, both by its inclusion in OKI’s regional transportation planning process, and by its consideration as a choice for trip-making by residents of the OKI region. The goals of the plan are stated as follows: GOAL 1: Develop a regional bicycle system that is integrated with other transportation systems. GOAL 2: Promote an active and supportive bicycle culture in the Cincinnati region. GOAL 3: Secure adequate funding for bicycle improvements in the region. GOAL 4: Encourage and support bicycle safety, education and enforcement programs. A recognized guide for the design of bicycle facilities is published by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials. This guide contains the statement that “The majority of bicycling will take place on ordinary roads with no dedicated space for bicycles.” It further states that “All highways, except those where bicyclists are legally prohibited, should be designed and constructed under the assumption that they will be used by bicyclists”. Consequently, many of the recommendations of this plan are oriented toward improving the region’s road system so that the streets can more safely be shared by bicycles and motor vehicles.
