Respondents were from all geographic and demographic communities in Kentucky, with the highest number serving Bluegrass metropolitan communities including Louisville, Lexington, and Northern Kentucky. Of the professionals who completed the survey (n = 323), the types of agencies with the highest number of respondents were: Administrative Office of the Courts, Court Designated Workers (28.0%) Department of Juvenile Justice Personnel (17.0%) Victim service agencies (12.0%) Services for at-risk youth (10.0%) A little over one third of professionals (35.9%) had received some training related to human trafficking and the majority of professionals reported their agency did not have protocols for screening for victims of human trafficking (76.5%).

  • Groundwater Sensitivity Regions of Kentucky
    Groundwater Sensitivity Regions of Kentucky by Kentucky Department for Environmental Protection Division of Water Groundwater Branch 1994 Interpreted by Joseph A. Ray James S. Webb Phillip W. O'dell Scale 1:500000 10 0 10 20 30 40 Miles 1" = approximately 8 inches Universal Transverse Mercator Projection, Zone 16. Polyconic grid, IMPORTANT NOTE This map is not designed for site specific use. Information used to construct this map was interpreted and generalized from over 800 Geologic Quadrangle Maps (1:24000) and selected Hydrologic Investigations Atlas Maps (1:24000) published by the USGS in cooperation with the KGS. The purpose of this map is to inform the public, land-use planners and managers, and governmental officials about the naturally occurring potential for groundwater contamination across the state. A rating of low sensitivity indicates that groundwater is naturally well protected from surface contaminants, although not necessarily immune from long-term pollution. High sensitivity ratings indicate that, in general, groundwater could be easily and quickly impacted by surface activities.

  • A Rock Evaluation Schema for Transporting Planning in Kentucky
    COMMONWEALTH OF KENTUCKY DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION JAMES E. GRAY WENDELL H. FORD FRANKFORT, KENTUCKY 40601 SECRETARY GOVERNOR May 29, 1974 H.3.13 MEMO TO: J. R. Harbison State Highway Engineer Chairman, Research Committee SUBJECT: Research Report No. 390; 11 A Rock Evaluation Schema for Transportation Planning in Kentucky; 11 Soil mantles and bedrock systems in Kentucky are being well defined pedologically and geologically. Agricultural soils maps, together with topographic and geological quadrangle maps, provide excellent, megascopic information for land-use guidance and site planning. In some respects, the agricultural and geologic technologies have surpassed or by-passed soil-and-rock mechanics -- that is, the engineering technology. During the past several years, the Soil Conservation Service in Kentucky has included engineering data and descriptions furnished by the Research Division in their publications. Also, U.S.G.S. notes some engineering information on the new, geological quadrangle maps. For instance, they note some aggregate sources and fossil slides and instances where highway embankments have shown a history of instability. As mentioned, engineering data on soils has been steadily accumulated during the past 25 years. It is now possible in many areas to indicate the most probable value of some properties and the expected range and variability. Rock data have not been accumulated; and, so, the purpose of the report submitted herewith is to bring into view the possibilities of beginning to assemble and catalog rock data in an orderly way for eventual reporting along with soils data. The Bureau of Highways is the principal source of engineering data for soils and produces extensive footages or rock cores from borings at bridge sites and along highway corridors.
