Preliminary assessment of hydrogeology and water quality in ground water in Teton County, Idaho. Technical report 07-002 Item Info

This report documents a preliminary investigation of the hydrology in Teton County, Idaho done by the Idaho Water Resources Research Institute (IWRRI) for the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality (IDEQ). IDEQ initiated this work in 2006 due to the high rate of housing development in Teton County, Idaho. IDEQ has mounting concerns over the potential introduction of water quality problems due to the installation of domestic onsite wastewater systems. An assessment of the area hydrogeology is necessary to evaluate Nutrient-Pathogen (N-P) Level 1 analyses submitted by developers (Howarth, et al, 2002). The N-P Level 1 evaluations include a spreadsheet analysis which requires hydrologic characteristics as input values. This project was intended to provide IDEQ with some guidelines regarding appropriate values for those inputs
