Annual Report on Public Water System Violations Vermont Water Supply Division
Annual Report on Public Water System Violations Vermont Water Supply Division 103 South Main St. Waterbury, VT 05671-0403 (802) 241-3400 or 1-800-823-6500 in Vermont January 1, 2006 - December 31, 2006 July 1, 2007 INTRODUCTION Vermont’s Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) is authorized by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to administer the Public Water Supply System program in the state. DEC’s Water Supply Division implements the program. The division’s primary goal is to ensure that citizens and visitors of the Green Mountain State have drinking water that is safe for human consumption. To maintain the authority to administer the program (also called primacy), the state has to implement and enforce rules that are at least as stringent as the federal drinking water regulations. To comply with federal regulations, DEC promulgated the State’s Water Supply Rule (Chapter 21 of the Environmental Protection Rules) on September 24, 1992. The rule was revised in 1996, 1999, 2002 and again in 2005 to incorporate the 1996 amendments to the federal Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA). The 1996 amendments strengthened many aspects of the SDWA, including government and water system accountability, and public awareness and involvement. The new “Right-to-know” provisions will give citizens the information they need to make their own health decisions, allow increased participation in drinking water decision-making, and promote accountability at the water system, state, and federal levels. One of the “Right-to-know” provisions requires states with primacy to prepare an annual Public Water System Compliance Report. The report must include the name and Water System Identification (WSID) number of each public water system that violated SDWA regulations during the year. -

Appendix a Places to Visit and Natural Communities to See There
Appendix A Places to Visit and Natural Communities to See There his list of places to visit is arranged by biophysical region. Within biophysical regions, the places are listed more or less north-to-south and by county. This list T includes all the places to visit that are mentioned in the natural community profiles, plus several more to round out an exploration of each biophysical region. The list of natural communities at each site is not exhaustive; only the communities that are especially well-expressed at that site are listed. Most of the natural communities listed are easily accessible at the site, though only rarely will they be indicated on trail maps or brochures. You, the naturalist, will need to do the sleuthing to find out where they are. Use topographic maps and aerial photographs if you can get them. In a few cases you will need to do some serious bushwhacking to find the communities listed. Bring your map and compass, and enjoy!

Cyanobacteria Monitoring on Lake Champlain Summer 2013
Cyanobacteria Monitoring on Lake Champlain Summer 2013 Final Report for the Lake Champlain Basin Program May 2014 Prepared by Angela Shambaugh Watershed Management Division Vermont Agency of Natural Resources Montpelier, Vermont in conjunction with Andy Chevrefils Mike Winslow Radiation and Toxicological Section Lake Champlain Committee Vermont Department of Health Burlington, VT 1 Executive Summary Cyanobacteria monitoring on Lake Champlain in 2013 continued to integrate qualitative observations, photographic documentation, quantitative analysis of algae populations, and microcystin concentrations into guidance for Lake Champlain users. Additional monitoring on four Vermont lakes (Carmi, Elmore, Iroquois and Memphremagog) was made possible by a CDC Climate Change grant awarded to the Vermont Department of Health. Objectives continue to monitor cyanobacteria at locations on Lake Champlain through the established partnership between state and local officials, the Lake Champlain Committee and citizen volunteers; continue to provide consistent quantitative data at selected locations around Lake Champlain; test for the presence of microcystin and anatoxin when algal density and composition triggers are reached; facilitate communication about lake conditions through weekly updates to stakeholders via email and to the general public through the Vermont Department of Health webpage; continue to provide outreach and assistance to beach managers, lakeshore property owners and the general public so they can learn to recognize and respond appropriately to the presence of cyanobacteria blooms More than 800 site-specific reports were submitted during 2013 from 83 locations on Lake Champlain and the four inland lakes. Fifty-four Champlain locations were monitored by citizen volunteers trained by the Lake Champlain Committee. Blooms, defined as category 3 of the visual protocol and alert level 2 of the tiered alert protocol, were reported 14 times in 2013. -
