Barton Springs Pool Health Consultion
Barton Springs Pool Health Consultation BARTON SPRINGS POOL AUSTIN, TRAVIS COUNTY, TEXAS FACILITY ID: TXN000605514 APRIL 18, 2003 U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES Public Health Service Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry Division of Health Assessment and Consultation Atlanta, Georgia 30333 Barton Springs Pool EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Barton Springs Pool is a 1.9 acre pool, fed from underground springs which discharge from the Barton Springs segment of the Edwards Aquifer. The pool is located within the confines of Barton Creek; however, water from the creek only enters the pool during flood events. The pool is located in downtown Austin and is used year round for recreation. Barton Springs Pool also is one of the only known habitats of the Barton Springs salamander (Eurycea sosorum) an endangered species. The City of Austin has been collecting water and sediment samples from Barton Springs Pool since 1991. Recent articles in the local daily newspaper have raised safety concerns regarding environmental contaminants found in the pool. In response to these concerns, the City Manager closed the pool pending an analysis of the perceived human health risks associated with chemical exposures occurring while swimming in the pool. We reviewed the results from water and sediment samples collected by the City of Austin, the United States Geological Survey, the Lower Colorado River Authority, and the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. We reviewed over 14,500 individual data points, involving approximately 441 analytes, collected over the past 12 years. We screened the contaminants by comparing reported concentrations to health-based screening values and selected twenty-seven contaminants for further consideration. -

Barton Springs Segment of the Edwards (Balcones Fault Zone) Aquifer, Central Texas
OLD G The Geological Society of America Memoir 215 OPEN ACCESS Barton Springs segment of the Edwards (Balcones Fault Zone) Aquifer, central Texas Brian B. Hunt Brian A. Smith Barton Springs/Edwards Aquifer Conservation District, Austin, Texas 78748, USA Nico M. Hauwert Balcones Canyonland Preserve, City of Austin, Austin Water, Wildland Conservation Division, Austin, Texas 78738, USA ABSTRACT The Barton Springs segment of the Edwards (Balcones Fault Zone) Aquifer is a prolifi c karst aquifer system containing the fourth largest spring in Texas, Barton Springs. The Barton Springs segment of the Edwards Aquifer supplies drinking water for ~60,000 people, provides habitat for federally listed endangered salamanders, and sustains the iconic recreational Barton Springs pool. The aquifer is composed of Lower Cretaceous carbonate strata with porosity and permeability controlled by dep- ositional facies, diagenesis, structure, and karstifi cation creating a triple permeability system (matrix, fractures, and conduits). Groundwater fl ow is rapid within an inte- grated network of conduits discharging at the springs. Upgradient watersheds pro- vide runoff to the recharge zone, and the majority of recharge occurs in the streams crossing the recharge zone. The remainder is direct recharge from precipitation and other minor sources (infl ows from Trinity Group aquifers, the San Antonio segment, the bad-water zone, and anthropogenic sources). The long-term estimated mean water budget is 68 ft3/s (1.93 m3/s). The Barton Springs/Edwards Aquifer Conserva- tion District developed rules to preserve groundwater supplies and maximize spring fl ow rates by preserving at least 6.5 ft3/s (0.18 m3/s) of spring fl ow during extreme drought. -
