This Plan is the result of many people and organizations coming together to produce a
comprehensive protection plan which will result in lowering the risk of contamination of the Ohio
River and protecting the quality of drinking water in the Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky
regions. The planning process could not have moved forward without the support of the
management of both GCWW and NKWD. Specifically the authors wish to thank Ms. Cathy
Bailey, Director of the GCWW and Mr. Ron Lovan, President and CEO of the NKWD, for
embracing the concepts of source water protection and supporting development of this plan. The
planning committee would also like to thank Mr. Jerry Schulte, Mr. Sam Dinkins, Ms. Lila
Ziolkowski, Mr. Travis Luncan and Mr. Richard Harrison of ORSANCO for their continued
support throughout the development of this plan.
The planning efforts were also supported by a variety of regulators including Ms. Barb Lubbugger,
Ms. Allison Reed and Ms. Megan Marhelski of the Ohio EPA and Ms. Julia Harrod, Ms. Jessica
Moore, and Mr. Chris Yeary of the Kentucky Division of Water. GCWW and NKWD are grateful
for the support and input we received from a number of stakeholders throughout the planning
process, all of whom are listed in Section 1 of the report. Finally, we are grateful for the support
and encouragement we received from a number of fellow source water protection professionals
working both within and outside the Ohio River basin.

Executive Summary
The following document is the Source Water Protection Plan
prepared jointly by the Greater Cincinnati Water Works
(GCWW) and the Northern Kentucky Water District (NKWD),
with assistance from the Ohio River Valley Water Sanitation
Commission (ORSANCO), for the Richard Miller Treatment
Plant and the Ft. Thomas Water Treatment Plant (GCWW and
NKWD, respectively) both of which draw water from the Ohio
River near Cincinnati, Ohio. The plan includes a delineation of
the source of water for the two utilities, a description of
potential sources of natural and man-made contamination, and
management programs designed to minimize the risks
associated with each of the potential contaminant sources. The
scope of this Plan is limited to protecting the drinking water
resources in the vicinity of GCWW and NKWD.
GCWW and NKWD operate community public water systems
that together provide water to approximately 1.4 million people
in the Greater Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky Metropolitan
area. The bulk of water for both systems is supplied by the
Ohio River. GCWW supplies about 12% of its water from the
Charles M. Bolton Well Field in Butler County, Ohio. NKWD
also operates two smaller surface water plants, the Memorial
Parkway Treatment Plant on the Ohio River and the Taylor Mill
Plant, which uses water from the Licking River to supply about
12% of its consumption. Jointly, GCWW and NKWD have the
capacity to withdraw approximately 270 million gallons per
day (MGD) from the Ohio River.
Using surface water (i.e., rivers, lakes, streams, etc.) as a source
of drinking water presents a number of unique challenges for
water utility managers ranging from maintaining an adequate
raw water supply to dealing with chronic or acute
contamination events. Withdrawing water from the Ohio River
presents many additional challenges for a water utility. Not
only does the Ohio River pose all of the typical treatment
What is Source
Water Protection?
Source Water
Protection is part of the
Safe Drinking Water
Act amendments of
1996. Surface water
(streams, rivers, and
lakes) or ground water
can serve as sources of
drinking water and is
referred to as “source
water”.

concerns of a surface water source such as the removal of potentially harmful pathogens, but the
size, and uses of the Ohio River pose additional source water protection concerns.
The Source Water Protection Program comprises the first barrier in the multiple-barrier strategies
employed by both GCWW and NKWD designed to ensure a sustainable source of safe drinking
water for their customers. Furthermore, the Source Water Protection Program is also a potential
cost savings program for each utility. By maintaining or improving the source water quality,
GCWW and NKWD may be able to reduce the cost to treat the water resulting in savings for both
utilities and ultimately in lower rates for the customers.
To facilitate the development of the protection program, the following list of goals were
developed for the Source Water Program, each of which will be addressed throughout this Plan:
1. Build a partnership between GCWW and the NKWD, with support from ORSANCO,
to jointly develop and administer an interstate source water protection program.
2. Maintain or improve the quality of the water in the Ohio River upstream of the
GCWW/NKWD intakes.
3. Help ensure that GCWW and NKWD receive timely notification of upstream spills and
releases and that the utilities’ needs are met during spill response actions.
4. Minimize the potential for accidental industrial releases to the Ohio River or major
tributaries upstream of the GCWW/NKWD intakes.
5. Improve communication between GCWW/NKWD and upstream industries including
barge and railroad companies
6. Educate the public, upstream industries, and civic groups of the importance of
protecting the Ohio River as a source of drinking water for the greater
Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky region.
7. Update and maintain an inventory of potential contaminant sources in the upstream
watershed with a particular emphasis on the Zone of Critical Concern (ZOCC).
The Ohio River Basin covers a total of 204,000 square miles, 71,000 square miles of which
comprise the area upstream of the GCWW and NKWD intakes. The intakes are located southeast
of Cincinnati, approximately 460 miles downstream of the river’s headwaters formed by the
confluence of the Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers at Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The Ohio
River watershed is a complex network of creeks, lakes, reservoirs, streams, and rivers. The
upstream portion of the Ohio River basin relative to GCWW/NKWD is comprised of portions of
Ohio, West Virginia, Kentucky, Pennsylvania, western New York, western Virginia, North
Source Water Protection Plan
xii
Carolina, and a small portion of Tennessee. The upstream area, if it were a state, would be the 18th
largest state (based on total area) in the U.S., between South Dakota and Washington. Looked at
another way, the upstream watershed is approximately the size of New England (Massachusetts,
Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Connecticut, and Rhode Island) and is larger than half of the
countries in Europe.
Due to the size and complexity of the Ohio River Basin, ORSANCO coordinated the development
of a source water assessment strategy for the Ohio River. Designed as an aid for protection
planning, this strategy provides a uniform approach to delineating the source water protection areas
for utilities on the river. The strategy was developed in conjunction with US EPA and
ORSANCO’s member states and it proposes a tiered delineation scheme to facilitate the
development of reasonable protection and management strategies. GCWW and NKWD have
adopted the ORSANCO delineation scheme. The three management zones are:
The Zone of Critical Concern is the innermost management zone and constitutes the source water
closest to the intakes and the zone in which time-critical actions must be taken whenever an event
affects the water quality in the river. The extent of the ZOCC is defined as the reach of the Ohio
River from a point 0.25 miles downstream of the intakes to 25 miles upstream of the intakes and
includes a corridor of 0.25 miles on the banks on either side of the river. The ZOCC also extends
up the significant tributaries within that 25.25 mile zone including Twelvemile Creek in Kentucky
and Twelvemile, and Indian Creeks in Ohio. From a practical standpoint, the ZOCC extends from
just upstream of the confluence of the Little Miami River to just downstream of the Captain
Anthony Meldahl Locks and Dam.
The second management zone is called the Zone of High Concern (ZOHC) and comprises the same
25.25 mile reach of the main stem of the Ohio but rather than being limited to the 0.25 miles on
the riverbanks, extends to the limits of the watershed and includes all the smaller sub-watersheds
and tributaries in that area. The total area of the combined ZOCC and ZOHC comprises 259 square
miles; 144 mi2 in Ohio and 115 mi2 in Kentucky (Ohio EPA, 2005).
Zone of Critical Concern (ZOCC)
Zone of High Concern (ZOHC)
The Extended Upstream Watershed (Zone 3)
Source Water Protection Plan
xiii
The outermost source water management zone (Extended
Upstream Watershed or Zone 3) is the entire drainage basin of the
Ohio River upstream of the GCWW and NKWD intakes. As
previously indicated, this zone comprises approximately 71,000
sq. miles spread over portions of eight states. It extends from the
Eastern Continental Divide in western Pennsylvania and West
Virginia and south from the St. Lawrence Divide in northern
Ohio. The area in Kentucky is limited to the counties closest to
the river due to the extent of the Licking River basin in central
Kentucky. Zone 3 includes most of the state of West Virginia and
over half of the state of Ohio.
Despite the river’s long history as an industrialized corridor, it is
an excellent source of drinking water. There are 33 water utilities
that draw water from the river that collectively serve over 5
million people with safe drinking water every day. Thanks in part
to the navigational dams on the river, but also due to an
abundance of precipitation throughout the watershed, the quantity
of water available in the Ohio River far exceeds the demand and
the river can easily accommodate all the competing usages. Since
the inception of pollution control standards for the river by
ORSANCO in the 1948 and the subsequent benefits of the Clean
Water Act which was passed in 1972, the water quality in the
Ohio River has been improving. The large volume of water in the
river means that incidental spills that would have a dramatic
impact on the water quality of smaller streams and rivers are
barely, if ever, detected in the Ohio River.
The upstream watershed includes geographic areas historically
associated with specific industries or natural resources. These
areas include:
Steel-production and related industries in western
PA and eastern Ohio.
Agriculture throughout the region but especially
in central Ohio.

The potential contaminant source inventory (PCSI) is instrumental to understanding the breadth of
the potential threats to the water quality in the Ohio River basin upstream of the GCWW/NKWD
intakes. The water quality threats to a river system as complex as the Ohio River are complicated,
change on a frequent basis, and require data from multiple sources to fully understand. Water
quality threats can take several forms including chemical storage, chemical transport, land-use
practices, agricultural runoff, wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs), permitted, illicit or
unintentional discharges, dissolution of naturally occurring minerals, and many others. Threats
can be discrete threats such as a permitted outfall or
combined sewer overflow or can be more regional such as runoff from agricultural fields or from
large parking lots. Additionally, threats to the Ohio River water quality can come from fixed
facilities such as electrical power plants and industrial facilities or can come from transient sources
such as barges, highway traffic, or rail transportation. Not all threats are chemical; runoff from
livestock grazing and concentrated feeding areas and excessive sediment runoff from construction
sites can also influence the water quality in the river and increase treatment costs.
Transient potential contaminant sources represent a significant management challenge within the
overall source water protection program. As one of the United States’ Great Rivers, the Ohio
River serves as a major corridor for transportation of raw materials and consumer goods. It is
common to observe multiple “tows” (i.e., multiple barges lashed together and pushed by a single
tow boat) travel past the GCWW/NKWD intakes in a single day. The cargo in these “tows” is
variable but often consists of coal, aggregate, grain, lime, liquid petroleum products or other bulk
chemical shipments.
The water quality threats to a river system as complex
as the Ohio River are complicated, change on a
frequent basis, and require data from multiple sources
to fully understand.

In addition to barge traffic, several railroad tracks are located within the source water protection
area including a line of tracks running adjacent to the Ohio River through the ZOCC and beyond.
These tracks are located near both the GCWW and the NKWD intakes and are typically within
visual distance from the river throughout their extent upstream.
Highway traffic also represents a significant potential threat to water quality in the Ohio River.
The Combs-Hehl Bridge is a double span steel cantilever bridge that spans the Ohio River
approximately 1 mile upstream of the intakes. The bridge was completed in 1979 and carries
Interstate Highway I-275 from Hamilton County, Ohio to Campbell County, Kentucky. Storm
water and drainage from the bridge discharge directly to the Ohio River. The bridge is
administered by the Kentucky Department of Transportation and carries approximately 57,000
vehicles including 2,700 trucks, everyday (OKI, 2007). Based on traffic and commodity flow
studies, approximately 10 (and sometimes up to 20) hazardous materials vehicles cross the bridge
every hour.
Other transportation-related potential contaminant sources exist, especially in the Extended
Watershed. Major Class 1 railroads cross the upstream watershed connecting industrial areas near
Detroit, Chicago and Cleveland to areas on the east coast. Since approximately 2013, these Class
1 railroads have also been used to transport crude oil from the Bakken fields in North Dakota to
refineries in New York, Delaware, and Virginia. Several major Interstate Highways, such as I-70
(which traverses middle of the upstream watershed), are major truck transportation routes. There
are multiple pipelines crisscrossing the upstream watershed, the majority of which are natural gas
and present little threat to drinking water quality. There are, however, several crude oil and
petroleum pipelines and likely chemical pipelines crossing the upstream area. Petroleum pipelines,
including a crude oil pipeline, cross the Ohio River near Catlettsburg, Kentucky.
To summarize, potential threats to the water quality in the Ohio River include (but are not limited
to):
Traffic accident resulting in the spill of hazardous materials on the Combs-Hehl Bridge.
Barge accidents (potential for both water quality impairment and/or physical damage to the
intake structure).
Spills and other accidental releases including storage tank failures,
Municipal waste water treatment discharges,
Industrial waste water discharges,
Home sewage disposal system discharges,
Source Water Protection Plan
xvi
Air contamination deposition,
Combined sewer overflows,
Runoff from urban, residential, mining, and agricultural areas,
Coal combustion residue (i.e., ash) released from impoundments near the river,
Oil and gas production and transportation (including associated pipelines),
Discharge of waste water and flow-back water from hydraulically fractured oil and gas
wells,
Illicit discharges ,
Railroad accidents and derailments,
Excessive nutrient concentrations and harmful algal blooms (HABs),
and Dissolution or redistribution of naturally-occurring minerals.
On average, there are at least 100 spills reported on the Ohio River upstream of GCWW/NKWD
every year. The majority of the spills are small and require no action by the utilities. There have
been several large historical events, however, that impacted the water quality and influenced the
manner in which Source Water Protection was conducted on the Ohio River for decades. Examples
of these historic spills include:
Intentional releases of Carbon Tetrachloride in 1977,
Catastrophic storage tank failure and release of 1 million gallons of diesel fuel in 1988,
Chemical plant fire resulting in ethylene dibromide (EDB) contamination of the River in
1994,
Release of 10,000 gallons of 4-methylcyclohexane-methanol from a storage tank failure in
2014,
Release of 9,000-gallons of diesel fuel from an overfill event in 2014.
Based on the PCSI and experiences gained during the large historical spills, GCWW and NKWD
have developed several management strategies to reduce the risk associated with each of these
threats. Due to the complexity of regulations that apply to the river and the number of agencies
and jurisdictions in the upstream area, both GCWW and NKWD desire to employ voluntary
strategies as much as possible during the implementation of this plan. The potential for seeking
regulatory assistance to implement these strategies exists but the program will start as a voluntary
program and will remain non-regulatory unless a regulatory approach becomes necessary.
The strategies include:
Source Water Protection Plan
xvii
Combs-Hehl Bridge Program
Transportation-Related Spill Notification and Mitigation
Voluntary Notification Program
New Regulation and Discharge Permit Application Review
Reservoir Water Quality Protection
Nutrient Reduction Program
Source Water Defender Recognition Program
In addition to the programs listed above, an active education and outreach program will enable the
GCWW and NKWD to raise the awareness of people and businesses about the sensitivity of the
Ohio River as a drinking water source and demonstrate how their activities impact our source
water, both positively and negatively. As in all aspects of this program, GCWW and NKWD will
adopt a cooperative approach and work with the several existing education foundations and non-
profit educational groups to promote our message.
In order to facilitate the various public education projects, a Public Education Committee (PEC)
will be formed. The PEC will comprise members from other outreach organizations and from
members of the Stakeholder Group. The PEC will develop and administer specific public outreach
programs based on input from the planning committee. One of the first tasks of the PEC will be
to develop a new name and logo for the NKWD-GCWW source water protection partnership.
Industry outreach programs will be developed to educate other river users about the presence of
our intakes, our concerns about water quality, and the necessity for clear and rapid communication
in the event of a spill.
Finally, outreach programs will be implemented to inform emergency response organizations and
other regulatory agencies about our drinking water concerns and our need for information during
response actions.
Spills and other events that impair the water quality in the Ohio River generally come in two forms:
a single event comprising an accidental or illicit discharge or an unknown, possibly chronic,
release detected by source water monitoring. Details of the monitoring are provided in Section
8.0. While GCWW and NKWD will respond to a spill in accordance with their individual spill
response plans, both utilities have reservoirs of raw or partially treated water that allows them to
continue to operate their plants for limited periods of time while pumping from the river is
Source Water Protection Plan
xviii
suspended and a contaminant plume passes. Furthermore, each utility possesses advanced
treatment technologies to potentially further protect the quality of the finished water.
Monitoring land use, industrial practices and water quality will be a part of the source water
protection program. The purpose of the monitoring is to identify conditions that could lead to
contaminants entering the river, establish baseline water quality, monitor for changes in baseline
water quality, and monitoring for spills and other releases.
As previously indicated, this Plan will result in an ongoing source water protection program. A
general implementation schedule for the first three years of this program is included in
Section 9. The plan will be re-evaluated periodically and revised as needed. Spill response plans
will be reviewed more frequently to ensure the contact information contained therein remains
updated. The sampling plan will be modified as needed based on changes to land use, new or
altered industrial facilities or discharges, emerging contaminants, etc.
The program will be jointly administered by GCWW and NKWD. It is anticipated that GCWW
and NKWD will provide resources as needed to properly execute the tasks. Water quality analyses
will be a combination of in-house analysis by either GCWW or NKWD or through a contract
laboratory.

1.0 Introduction
The following document is the Source Water Protection Plan (herein referred to as either SWPP
or the Plan) prepared jointly by the Greater Cincinnati Water Works (GCWW) and the Northern
Kentucky Water District (NKWD) for two water treatment plants that draw water from the Ohio
River near Cincinnati, Ohio. This plan includes a delineation of the source of water for the two
utilities, a description of potential sources of natural and man-made contamination, and
management programs designed to minimize those risks. The scope of this Plan is limited to
protecting the drinking water resources in the vicinity of GCWW and NKWD.
Background
GCWW and NKWD operate community public water systems that together provide water to
approximately 1.4 million people in the Greater Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky Metropolitan area.
The bulk of water for both systems is supplied by the Ohio River. GCWW also supplies about
12% of its water from the Charles M. Bolton Well Field in Butler County Ohio. NKWD also
operates two smaller surface water plants, the Memorial Parkway Treatment Plant on the Ohio
River and the Taylor Mill Plant, which uses water from the Licking River to supply about 12% of
its consumption. Jointly, GCWW and NKWD have the capacity to withdraw approximately 270
million gallons per day (MGD) from the Ohio River.
Both GCWW and NKWD treat their raw water to meet or exceed the requirements of the Safe
Drinking Water Act and the requirements of Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (Ohio EPA)
or Kentucky Division of Water (KDOW). Each utility employs advanced treatment and
disinfection techniques resulting in a robust multiple-barrier strategy to ensure the safety of the
drinking water.
Greater Cincinnati Water Works
The Richard Miller Treatment Plant (RMTP) was constructed circa 1904 and brought into service
in 1907. The original plant configuration included a brick intake structure in the Ohio River
located near the Kentucky bank, a steam-driven pump station (Old River Station), two brick-lined
off-channel reservoirs, coagulation and sedimentation basins, and rapid sand filters.. Over the
ensuing 110 years there have been numerous upgrades to the plant including: chlorination,
installation of a second submerged river intake and pump station (Ohio River Pump), expansion
of the filter gallery, enhanced coagulation and sedimentation methods (inclined plate pack settlers),
post-filter granular activated carbon (with onsite regeneration) and ultraviolet disinfection.
GCWW operates two reservoirs of partially treated water at the RMTP. These reservoirs have a
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 2
combined storage of approximately 340 million gallons of water. Water from these two reservoirs
can be used to maintain operations at the plant through periods when raw water pumping from the
Ohio River must be suspended due to maintenance or in response to spills.
Northern Kentucky Water District
The Northern Kentucky Water District originally started out as the Covington Water Works in
1891 with the completion of an Ohio River pump station, a chemical building, and three reservoirs.
The Ohio River water was pumped up to the chemical building where lime and alum were added
as coagulants. The water then flowed by gravity into two of the reservoirs before flowing into the
third reservoir where the water was drawn off by gravity to supply the water for the City of
Covington. Chlorine was added as disinfection in 1927 as a result of a cholera epidemic. In 1936,
a 20 MGD conventional coagulation, flocculation, and sedimentation water treatment plant was
constructed including a new chemical building, two settling basins and conventional treatment
filter building. The new plant was built on the site of the third reservoir. Over the following years
many upgrades were made to the treatment process, including a 40 MGD upgrade, post-filter
granular activated carbon and ultraviolet disinfection. A new Ohio River pump station increased
the pumping capacity to 44 MGD. The two remaining reservoirs have a combined capacity of 72
million gallons of water. The reservoirs can be used to maintain operations at the plant in the event
that the river intakes must be closed due to a spill on the Ohio River.

Using surface water as a source of drinking water presents a number of unique challenges for water
utility managers ranging from maintaining an adequate raw water supply to dealing with chronic
or acute contamination events. Withdrawing water from the Ohio River presents many additional
challenges for a water utility. Not only does the Ohio River pose all of the typical treatment
concerns of a surface water source such as the removal of potentially harmful pathogens, but the
size, and uses of the Ohio River pose additional source water protection concerns.
The main stem of the Ohio River borders or flows through six different states and is a critical
resource for many, sometimes competing, uses. In addition to being the direct drinking water
source for more than 5 million people, many ground water utilities also depend on the river as a
source of natural recharge to their aquifers. Over 230 million tons of cargo is transported on the
Ohio River each year, and 49 power generating stations are located along the river, making up in
excess of 10 percent of the nation’s power supply. Additionally, the Ohio River is the receiving
stream (either directly or indirectly through tributaries) for industrial and sanitary waste produced
by over 25 million people.
The Ohio River is formed by the confluence of the Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers in
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The Ohio River watershed exceeds 200,000 square miles and the main
stem of the river is 981 miles long (ORSANCO website, retrieved September 29, 2014. http://
http://www.orsanco.org/river-facts). There are several interstate highways, railroad, and other
bridges that cross the Ohio River including the Combs-Hehl Bridge, which is located 0.9 miles
upstream from the GCWW/NKWD intakes.
In order to maintain the navigability of the river, the US Army Corp of Engineers operates 20 dams
(along with accompanying locks) along the main stem with several others on key tributaries such
as the Monongahela, the Kanawha, and Tennessee Rivers. The dams maintain a minimum water
depth needed for barges but have significantly altered the flow dynamics of the river. Rather than
a “typical” fluvial system, the Ohio River, from a hydrologic standpoint, sometimes functions
more like a series of connected lakes or reservoirs, especially during low water periods. The river
velocity ranges from highs near 5 mph during high water events to under 0.4 mph during periods
of low water.

Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 4
The upstream watershed for GCWW/NKWD comprises an area of 71,000 square miles in portions
of nine states including significant portions of Ohio, West Virginia, Kentucky, and Pennsylvania
along with smaller portions of New York, North Carolina, Maryland, Virginia, and Tennessee.
The upstream area, if it were a state, would be the 18th largest state (based on total area) in the
U.S., between South Dakota and Washington. Looked at another way, the upstream watershed is
approximately the size of New England (Massachusetts, Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire,
Connecticut, and Rhode Island) and is larger than half of the countries in Europe.
A map showing Ohio River watershed upstream of the intakes is included in Figure 2.
The complexity of the Ohio River watershed is not limited to geology or demographics but extends
to the regulatory arena as well. The upstream area is part of four different US EPA Regions
(Regions 3, 4, and 5 with a small portion of Region 2 in westernmost New York). The upstream
watershed is also part of District 8 of the US Coast Guard as well as three different districts
(Louisville, Huntington, and Pittsburgh) within the US Army Corp of Engineers Great Lakes and
Ohio River Division. ORSANCO develops water quality standards, coordinates source water
protection and emergency response activities and conducts chemical and biological monitoring
along the entire main stem of the river. Ohio EPA, KDEP, West Virginia DEP, and Pennsylvania
DEP have water quality programs within each of their respective states. Additionally, other state
regulatory agencies and hundreds of county and local jurisdictions are located in the upstream
watershed. A map showing the US EPA regions superimposed over the upstream extent of the
watershed is included in Figure 3.
The Ohio River has a rich history and was one of the drivers of the early industrial success of the
United States. Sections of the river banks continue to be heavily industrialized and the river is a
vital transportation corridor linking key industrial and agricultural areas in Pennsylvania, Ohio,
West Virginia and Kentucky with distant ports such as New Orleans and beyond.
Despite the river’s long history as an industrialized corridor, it is an excellent source of drinking
water. There are 33 water utilities that draw water from the river that collectively serve over 5
million people with safe drinking water every day. Thanks in part to the navigational dams on the
river, but also due to an abundance of precipitation throughout the watershed, the quantity of water
available in the Ohio River far exceeds the demand and the river can easily accommodate all the
competing usages. Since the inception of pollution control standards for the river by ORSANCO
in 1948 and the subsequent benefits of the Clean Water Act which was passed in 1972, the water
quality in the Ohio River has been improving. The large volume of water in the river means that
incidental spills that would have a dramatic impact on the water quality of smaller streams and
rivers are barely, if ever, detected in the Ohio River.

The upstream watershed includes geographic areas historically associated with specific industries
or natural resources. These areas include:
Steel-production and related industries in western PA and eastern Ohio.
Agriculture throughout the region but especially in central Ohio.
Oil and gas extraction, including unconventional (horizontal) wells, in eastern Ohio,
western PA, and western WV.
Coal mining throughout West Virginia, eastern Kentucky and eastern Ohio.
Chemical and Petrochemical industries in southeast Ohio and in West Virginia near
Huntington and upstream on the Kanawha River to Charleston, including a major oil
refinery at Catlettsburg, Kentucky.
Coal-fired electric power generating stations along the length of the Ohio River.
A map with the major industrial areas superimposed over the upstream watershed is included in
Figure 4.
Transportation in the region is not limited to barge traffic. Major Class 1 railroads cross the
upstream watershed connecting industrial areas near Detroit, Chicago and Cleveland to areas on
the east coast. Since approximately 2013, these Class 1 railroads have also been used to transport
crude oil from the Bakken fields in North Dakota through portions of the upstream watershed to
refineries in New York, Delaware, and Virginia. Several major Interstate Highways, such as I-70
(which traverses the middle of the upstream watershed), are major truck transportation routes.
There are multiple pipelines crisscrossing the upstream watershed, too many to fully describe. The
majority of the pipelines are natural gas and present little threat to drinking water quality. There
are, however, several crude oil and petroleum pipelines and likely chemical pipelines crossing the
upstream area. Petroleum pipelines, including a crude oil pipeline, cross the Ohio River near
Catlettsburg, Kentucky. A map showing the major transportation corridors is included in
Figures 5 through 7.
Potential threats to the water quality in the Ohio River include (but are not limited to):
spills and other accidental releases including storage tank failures,
municipal waste water treatment discharges,
industrial waste water discharges,
home sewage disposal system discharges,

air contamination deposition,
combined sewer overflows,
runoff from urban, residential, mining, and agricultural areas,
coal combustion residue (i.e., ash) release from impoundments near the river,
oil and gas production and transportation (including associated pipelines),
discharge of waste water and flow-back water from hydraulically fractured oil and gas
wells,
illicit discharges,
railroad accidents and derailments,
harmful algal blooms (HABs),
and dissolution or redistribution of naturally-occurring minerals.
On average, there are at least 100 spills reported on the Ohio River upstream of GCWW/NKWD
on an annual basis. Spill and contingency planning are discussed further in Section 7, however,
there are several large events that impacted the water quality and influenced the manner in which
Source Water Protection was conducted on the Ohio River for decades and will be mentioned here
as part of the background information. Examples of these historic spills include:
Intentional releases of Carbon Tetrachloride in 1977
Catastrophic storage tank failure and release of 1 million gallons of diesel fuel in 1988
Chemical plant fire resulting in ethylene dibromide (EDB) contamination of the River in
1994
Release of 4-methylcyclohexane-methanol from a storage tank failure in 2014
Release of 9,000-gallons of diesel fuel from an overfill event in 2014
A map showing the origin of these large historic spills is provided in Figure 8. Note that with the
exception of the August 2014 diesel fuel spill, the majority of the large spills occurred hundreds
of miles into the upstream watershed.
This Plan is intended to provide the guidelines and framework for a source water protection
program that will be administered jointly by GCWW and NKWD. The Plan will include specific
strategies to identify and, to the extent possible, mitigate the threats described above. By providing
a structured analysis of the upstream watershed, the source water protection team will be able to
inform treatment personnel of types of events that could impact the water quality so that adequate
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 13
FIGURE 8. ORIGIN OF SOME OF THE MAJOR SPILL OR RELEASES IN THE UPSTREAM AREA
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 14
treatment technologies and contingency plans can be developed. The Ohio River basin typically
experiences plentiful precipitation that, coupled with the locks and dams, ensures an adequate
supply of source water. Consequently, this Plan will focus primarily on water quality threats.
Role of ORSANCO
Due to wide-ranging interstate water quality concerns, the Ohio River Valley Water Sanitation
Commission (ORSANCO) was formed in 1948. ORSANCO is an interstate water pollution
control agency that manages and operates programs for water quality monitoring and assessment,
assists in emergency response management, has established pollution control standards for the
Ohio River, and facilitates interstate cooperation and coordination on Safe Drinking Water Act
(SDWA) and Clean Water Act (CWA) issues. GCWW and NKWD recognize ORSANCO’s
unique position in promoting source water protection along the Ohio River and this plan reflects
their commitment to utilize ORSANCO’s knowledge, authority and resources to protect our water
source. ORSANCO has been a leader in source water protection and emergency response targeted
at protecting drinking water utilities for several decades. Accordingly, ORSANCO has been a
supporter of the GCWW/NKWD partnership and has facilitated the development of a working
group by hosting and facilitating monthly meetings between the two utilities and providing
valuable insight during the development of this plan.
ORSANCO facilitated the preparation of a template for the development of Source Water
Protection Assessments on the Ohio River and the current Plan is built off that template.
ORSANCO also developed the initial delineation scheme including the Zone of Critical Concern
(ZOCC), the Zone of High Concern (ZOHC), and the Upstream Watershed (Extended Zone), all
of which have been adopted within the current plan (see Section 2). Finally, ORSANCO operates
the Organic Detection System (ODS), a series of near real-time analytical stations up and down
the main-stem of the Ohio River. The water quality monitoring strategy described in Section 8
relies heavily on this system.
Source Water Protection Program Goals
The Source Water Protection Program is the first barrier in the multiple-barrier strategies employed
by both GCWW and NKWD to ensure a sustainable source of safe drinking water for our
customers. Furthermore, the Source Water Protection Program is also a cost savings program for
each utility. By improving the source water quality, GCWW and NKWD may be able to reduce
or moderate the cost to treat the water to meet state and federal requirements, resulting in savings
for both utilities and ultimately in lower rates for the customers.
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 15
To facilitate the development of a workable program, the Committee has developed the following
list of goals for the Source Water Program, all of which will be addressed throughout this Plan:
1. Build a partnership between GCWW and the NKWD, with support from ORSANCO,
to jointly develop and administer an interstate source water protection program.
2. Maintain or improve the quality of the water in the Ohio River upstream of the
GCWW/NKWD intakes.
3. Ensure that GCWW and NKWD receive timely notification of upstream spills and
releases and that the utilities’ needs are met during spill response actions.
4. Minimize the potential for accidental industrial releases to the Ohio River or major
tributaries upstream of the GCWW/NKWD intakes.
5. Improve communication between GCWW/NKWD and upstream industries including
barge and railroad companies.
6. Educate the public, upstream industries, and civic groups of the importance of
protecting the Ohio River as a source of drinking water for the greater
Cincinnati/northern Kentucky region.
7. Update and maintain an inventory of potential contaminant sources in the upstream
watershed with a particular emphasis on the Zone of Critical Concern.
Plan Organization
The Source Water Protection Plan is divided into nine sections. Section 2 presents a delineation
scheme designed to identify the various parts of the upstream catchment area to facilitate protection
efforts described herein. Section 3 discusses a strategy to create an inventory of potential
contaminant sources near the GCWW/NKWD intake locations. This section also discusses the
results of preliminary inventory activities and management of the inventory data. Section 4
presents a prioritization scheme that will structure the potential contaminant source inventory to
identify the highest priority concerns, which will, in turn, guide the development of protective
strategies. Section 5 describes protective management strategies based on the information
developed in Section 4. Strategies and plans for engaging the public and industry through outreach
and education programs are described in Section 6 while Contingency Plans are presented in
Section 7. Water Quality and other monitoring programs are presented in Section 8 while an
implementation plan and schedule is included in Section 9.
Plan Preparation and Stakeholder Involvement
As previously indicated, the GCWW and NKWD have been working together to develop this
Source Water Protection Plan with considerable assistance from ORSANCO. Together, GCWW,
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 16
NKWD, and ORSANCO form the central planning committee. The central planning committee
met on a regular basis starting in June 2013. The central planning committee members are:
Mr. Richard Stuck, PG Greater Cincinnati Water Works
Mr. Bruce Whitteberry, PG Greater Cincinnati Water Works
Mr. Jeff Swertfeger Greater Cincinnati Water Works
Ms. Maria Meyer, PE Greater Cincinnati Water Works
Mr. Richard Harrison, PE Northern Kentucky Water District/ORSANCO
Ms. Mary Carol Wagner Northern Kentucky Water District
Ms. Amy Kramer, PE Northern Kentucky Water District
Mr. Jerry Schulte ORSANCO
Ms. Lila Ziolkowski ORSANCO
Mr. Travis Luncan ORSANCO
Mr. Sam Dinkins ORSANCO
The central planning committee met with groups of stakeholders at various times during the
planning process to gain additional insight and participation from those likely to be affected by the
source water protection program.
The initial stakeholder meeting was held with representatives of the drinking water regulators in
August 2013. The meeting included members of the central planning committee and
representatives from Ohio EPA’s Division of Drinking and Ground Waters and the Kentucky
Division of Water. The meeting was held at ORSANCO for the purpose of introducing the concept
of the joint source water protection program to the two regulatory groups that would ultimately
review the Plan. After much discussion it was determined that a single plan could meet the
requirements for both agencies and that Ohio EPA will review the plan for GCWW and KDOW
will review the plan on behalf of the NKWD.
One of the goals of the planning committee was to solicit input from other parties and businesses
that have a presence on the Ohio River. Accordingly, a series of stakeholder meetings were hosted
by the central planning committee in February, March, and April of 2015 at either GCWW or
NKWD offices. The purpose of these meetings was to gain critical insights from other river users
as the protective strategies were developed.

2.0 Delineation
The following section describes the source of drinking water for GCWW’s Richard Miller
Treatment Plant and NKWD’s Ft. Thomas Plant.
Source Water Area Characterization
As previously described, both the GCWW and NKWD use the Ohio River as their primary source
of drinking water. The Ohio River Basin covers a total of 204,000 square miles and the upstream
portion of the basin from the GCWW/NKWD is approximately 71,000 square miles. The river is
a total of 981 miles long from its confluence with the Mississippi River near Cairo, Illinois to the
headwaters formed by the confluence of the Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers at Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania.
Like many rivers in the U.S., distances along the Ohio River are measured in river miles. A river
mile (RM or ORM for “Ohio River Mile”) is the distance in miles along a river, typically from its
mouth to its point of origin. Unlike most rivers, however, the Ohio River miles are measured from
the confluence of the Allegheny and Monongahela (i.e., RM0) to its confluence with the
Mississippi (RM981).
The GCWW and NKWD intakes are located southeast of Cincinnati, approximately 460 miles
downstream of the river’s headwater. The Ohio River watershed is a complex network of creeks,
lakes, streams, and rivers flowing generally south and west from the central and southern
Alleghany Plateau through the Central Lowlands and Interior Low Plateau physiographic
provinces. The upstream portion of the Ohio River basin relative to GCWW/NKWD is located
primarily in the Allegheny Plateau and is comprised of portions of Ohio, West Virginia, Kentucky,
Pennsylvania, western New York, western Virginia, North Carolina, and a small portion of
Tennessee.
There are a total of 20,788 miles of named streams in the upstream watershed including the
following 7 major tributaries (USGS Streamer Web Application):
Allegheny River Kanawha River
Monongahela River Big Sandy River
Muskingum River Scioto River
Guyandotte River
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 19
Some of the cities in the upstream watershed include:
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Marietta, Ohio
Charleston, West Virginia Parkersburg, West Virginia
Columbus, Ohio Ashland, Kentucky
Wheeling, West Virginia Portsmouth, Ohio
Steubenville, Ohio Ironton, Ohio
Despite the urban and industrial development around portions of the upstream watershed, the
stretch of the river from the GCWW/NKWD intakes up river to approximately Portsmouth, Ohio,
a distance of approximately 100 miles, has comparatively little industrial development.
Precipitation is plentiful throughout most of the areas upstream of the GCWW and NKWD intakes
with an average of 38 to 40 inches annual precipitation with the majority falling in the winter and
spring months. Based on long-term average from 1940 to 1975, the discharge of the Ohio River
at a gage in Cincinnati, Ohio is 91,900 ft3/sec, ranging from a typical average discharge in January
of 215,000 ft3/sec to an average low in October of 25,000 ft3/sec (USGS, 2007). That translates to
an average flow of 59,392 MGD with a range of 138,948 to 16,157 MGD.
Due to the importance of the Ohio River as a major transportation route, the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers (USACE) is required to maintain the river in a navigable condition. To do this the
USACE operates 19 locks and dams on the main stem of the river and 37 reservoirs in the basin.
Nineteen of these reservoirs are located upstream of the GCWW/NKWD intakes. These 19
reservoirs are:
Kinzua Dam Berlin Summersville Paintsville
East Branch, Clarion
River
Mosquito
Creek Sutton Yatesville
Woodcock Creek Shenango R.D.Bailey Grayson
Youghiogheny M.J. Kirwan Fishtrap Paint Creek
Stonewall Jackson Burnsville J.W. Flannagan

Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 20
The GCWW and NKWD intakes are located within the Markland pool, which is the 95 mile long
reach from the Markland Locks and Dam southwest of Cincinnati (ORM 531.5) upstream to the
Captain Anthony Meldahl Locks and Dam (ORM 436.2). The average depth of the Ohio River at
the intakes is approximately 24 feet (ORSANCO River Facts and Conditions Website
http://www.orsanco.org/factcondition).
Management Zones
Due to the size and complexity of the Ohio River Basin, ORSANCO coordinated the development
of a source water assessment strategy for the Ohio River. Designed as an aid for protection
planning, this strategy provides a uniform approach to delineating the source water protection areas
for utilities on the river. The strategy was developed in conjunction with US EPA and
ORSANCO’s member states and it proposes a tiered delineation scheme to facilitate the
development of reasonable protection and management strategies. GCWW and NKWD have
adopted the ORSANCO delineation scheme. The three management zones are:
Zone of Critical Concern (ZOCC)
Zone of High Concern (ZOHC)
Extended Upstream Watershed (sometimes referred to as Zone 3)
The extent of each zone is shown graphically in Figures 2 and 9 and the details of each
management zone are provided in the following sections:
Zone of Critical Concern (ZOCC):
The Zone of Critical Concern is the innermost management zone and constitutes the source water
closest to the intakes and the zone in which time-critical actions must be taken whenever an event
affects the water quality in the river. The extent of the ZOCC is defined as the reach of the Ohio
River from a point 0.25 miles downstream of the intakes to 25 miles upstream of the intakes and
includes a corridor of 0.25 miles on the banks on either side of the river. The ZOCC also extends
up the significant tributaries within that 25.25 mile zone including Twelvemile Creek in Kentucky
and Twelvemile, and Indian Creeks in Ohio. From a practical standpoint, the ZOCC extends from
just upstream of the Little Miami River to just downstream of the Captain Anthony Meldahl Locks
and Dam (see Figure 9).
The ZOCC was originally developed using time-of-travel estimates. As previously stated, the
velocity of the Ohio River within the ZOCC is highly variable within a range from less than 0.2
mile per hour to just under 5 mph. Spills or other events in this zone require timely responses by
GCWW and NKWD to prevent contamination from entering their respective water treatment
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 21
FIGURE 9. MAP OF THE ZONES OF CRITICAL AND HIGH CONCERN
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 22
plants. Additionally, any ongoing releases, such as permitted discharges within the ZOCC, have
little time for mixing or to degrade.
Zone of High Concern (ZOHC):
The second management zone is called the Zone of High Concern and comprises the same 25.25
mile reach of the main stem of the Ohio but rather than being limited to the 0.25 miles on the
riverbanks, extends to the limits of the watershed and includes all the smaller sub-watersheds and
tributaries in that area. The total area of the combined ZOCC and ZOHC comprises 259 square
miles; 144 mi2 in Ohio and 115 mi2 in Kentucky (Ohio EPA, 2005). Review of the upstream
watershed reveals that the ZOHC is limited to a distance of no more than 11 miles from the Ohio
River. The extent of the ZOHC is limited to the north by the Little Miami River watershed in Ohio
and to the south by the Licking River watershed in Kentucky. Both the Little Miami and Licking
join the Ohio River downstream of the GCWW/NKWD intakes.
Extended Upstream Watershed (Zone 3):
The outermost source water management zone is the entire drainage basin of the Ohio River
upstream of the GCWW and NKWD intakes. As previously indicated, this zone comprises
approximately 71,000 sq. miles spread over portions of eight states. It extends from the Eastern
Continental Divide in western Pennsylvania and West Virginia and south from the St. Lawrence
Divide in northern Ohio. The area in Kentucky is limited to the counties closest to the river due
to the extent of the Licking River basin. Zone 3 includes most of the state of West Virginia and
over half of the state of Ohio.
The collective experience of GCWW, NKWD, and ORSANCO has shown that many of the
incidents and land uses that affect the water quality in the Ohio River occur within Zone 3. Areas
along the Ohio River upstream from Portsmouth, Ohio, (Ohio River Mile 353) for example contain
several large industrial facilities ranging from chemical storage and manufacturing, to electrical
power plants and a large petroleum refinery. This upstream effect is magnified when areas along
the Kanawha River near Charleston, West Virginia are included. Nicknamed “Chemical Valley”,
this area is a locus of the petrochemical industry. Similarly, areas near Pittsburgh, including the
Allegheny and Monongahela River valleys have historically been heavily developed with the steel
and oil/gas/coal industries and continue that industrial legacy today.
While it is impractical for GCWW and NKWD to develop protective strategies for all the potential
contaminant sources within Zone 3, the delineation of critical industrial areas along selected
stretches of the Ohio River and the major tributaries may help better characterize the true nature
of the upstream threats. GCWW and NKWD will work extensively with ORSANCO during the
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 23
development of the inventory information for the extended zone. The inventory of potential
contaminant sources will be discussed in Section 3.
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 24
3.0 Potential Contaminant Source Inventory
The potential contaminant source inventory (PCSI) is instrumental to understanding the breadth of
the potential threats to the water quality in the Ohio River basin upstream of the GCWW/NKWD
intakes. The water quality threats to a river system as complex as the Ohio River are complicated,
change on a frequent basis, and require data from multiple sources to fully understand. Water
quality threats can take several forms including chemical manufacturing and storage, chemical
transport, land-use practices, agricultural runoff, wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs),
permitted, illicit or unintentional discharges, dissolution of naturally occurring minerals, and many
others. Threats can be discrete threats such as a permitted outfall or combined sewer overflow or
can be more regional such as runoff from agricultural fields or from large parking lots.
Additionally, threats to the Ohio River water quality can come from fixed facilities such as
electrical power plants and industrial facilities or can come from transient sources such as barges,
highway traffic, or rail transportation. Not all threats are chemical; runoff from livestock grazing
and concentrated feeding areas and excessive sediment runoff from construction sites can also
influence the water quality in the river and increase treatment costs.
This section describes the methodology and sources of information GCWW/NKWD used to
develop the initial PCSI as well as a description of the current inventory. A copy of the PCSI is
included in Appendix A. Due to security concerns, the information provided in Appendix A is
limited to the name and location of PCSI sites/facilities. The complete inventory includes detailed
information, such as chemical storage information for many of the facilities that is not suitable for
widespread distribution. It is anticipated that the PCSI will not be a static database but instead will
undergo frequent updates as the Source Water Protection Program develops.
The PCSI database was originally developed in 2005 and has undergone periodic updates since
that time. The PCSI currently includes the results of selected database searches, aerial photograph
analysis, a windshield survey, a boat-based survey from the river, and individual site visits.
General Site Characteristics
Potential contaminant sources can, for the purpose of this plan, be classified into one of three
broad categories which are:
1) Point sources – these are static, “discrete” sources or potential sources of contamination
that comprise a discernible, confined and discrete conveyance. Examples include specific
storage tanks, processes or discharges associated with a fixed-location facility such as
discharge pipes, permitted outfalls, combined sewer overflows, drainage swales, drain
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 25
pipes, etc. For the purpose of this plan, mobile potential sources are considered separately
from stationary point sources.
2) Non-point sources – Nonpoint source pollution generally results from land runoff,
precipitation, atmospheric deposition, drainage, seepage or hydrologic modification. As
the runoff moves, it picks up and carries away natural and human-made pollutants, finally
depositing them into lakes, rivers, wetlands, coastal waters and ground waters. Examples
of non-point source contamination include runoff from farm fields and parking lots.
3) Mobile sources – Mobile potential sources of pollution are a specific type of point source
that includes discharge from vehicles, barges and railcars, generally with cargo of concern.
Examples of this include semi-trucks, trains and barges. Barges pose a unique threat
because of their varied cargo, mobile nature and size. One barge can carry over a million
gallons of cargo and a typical “tow” includes multiple barges. Unlike the static point
sources, it is difficult to assign a day-to-day risk to mobile point sources. These differences
need to be taken into account during source water protection planning.
Potential Contaminant Source Inventory Data Sources
Given the diversity of potential threats to the water quality, the development of the PCSI will be
an iterative and ongoing process. The PCSI will continue to draw data from several sources
including:
State and Federal databases
Field survey and site visits
Aerial photographs and topographic maps
Emergency planning and response agencies
Site-specific knowledge
Upstream water utilities
Barge, vehicle and train monitoring
Interviews
Early work on the PCSI has demonstrated that no single source of information will reliably produce
an adequate picture of the threats to water quality in the upstream watershed. Accordingly, various
lines of information regarding hazardous material transportation, use, storage and disposal will be
used to complement each other in the ongoing development of the inventory. The following
sections provide a brief overview of each data source and how they will be used to further develop
the PCSI.
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 26
State and Federal Databases
There are several publically-available data sources offered via download from both state and
federal agencies. The original PCSI information provided by the Ohio EPA and KDOW in 2005
obtained data from several federal databases including ENVIROFACTS, BASINS, NPDES, RCRIS,
FSI among others. These data were supplemented by state-level databases including the BUSTR,
LUST, and other databases. A list of acronyms is presented at the front of this document and a
brief description of each database used to develop the PCSI is included in Appendix B.
There has been significant development of online resources and data availability since the original
PCSI data were generated. Future additions to the PCSI will leverage many of these resources to
update and expand the data set. In addition to the baseline data mentioned in the previous
paragraph, the PCSI update will include information from the US EPA ECHO database, which
includes compliance history for listed facilities, from community Right-To-Know information
including the Toxic Release Inventory (TRI) and EPCRA Tier 2 Reporting.
Field Survey and Site Visits
Field surveys and ground checking of information may take a variety of forms including detailed
individual site reconnaissance, automobile-based windshield surveys, boat-based river surveys, or
perhaps even low-level aerial reconnaissance. In all cases the field inventory will include
collection of GPS-based location data, photographs, interviews with site personnel (if possible)
and completion of field reconnaissance field data sheets. An example of the field reconnaissance
data sheet is provided in Appendix C.
Data collected during the field surveys will be used to generate, correct, or update facility
information stored in the PCSI. For high priority facilities located in the ZOCC, this information
will be updated every two years or whenever a major change at the facility occurs. Due to the
number of facilities in the ZOHC, field surveys will occur on a less frequent basis.
Aerial Photographs and Topographic Maps
The nature and complexity of regional land-use patterns, large industrial sites, and transportation-
related facilities are often better understood through the use of aerial or satellite imagery.
Additionally, the availability of reasonably up-to-date high resolution imagery coupled with easy-
to-use publically-available software makes the use of aerial imagery a powerful source of site-
specific information. As a result, aerial imagery will be used extensively to identify and confirm
sites for inclusion in the PCSI and will allow identification of exterior chemical storage and
material transfer or disposal areas. Historical aerial photographs, where available, may also be
referenced to determine the land use history in certain areas of the ZOCC and ZOHC. Likewise,
the use of topographic maps will provide insights about the location of large industrial facilities
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 27
and the likely direction of surface water (or spill) drainage. Analysis of aerial photographs will
form the basis of inventory activities in the Extended Zone (i.e., Zone 3).
Emergency Management Agencies
Through the course of the stakeholder meetings it became apparent that the Emergency
Management Agencies (EMAs) of Hamilton and Clermont Counties in Ohio and Campbell and
Kenton Counties in Kentucky possess a significant amount of information about the storage of
hazardous materials within their jurisdictions. While the information they possess is constrained
by what is reported via Tier 2 reporting, this information is very helpful. The EMAs covering the
ZOHC and ZOCC have offered to make their databases available to GCWW and NKWD as part
of the expansion of the PCSI.
Site-Specific Knowledge
Both GCWW and NKWD are active members of their respective communities and employ a
workforce that has strong roots within those communities and substantial amount of knowledge
about activities on or near the river. This knowledge base will be leveraged to supplement the
other avenues of PCSI data generation. Where this “second-hand” information can be confirmed,
it will be used to add additional detail to the PCSI. Moreover, ORSANCO has been working on
the Ohio River for many decades and has a detailed knowledge of the industries and issues along
the length of the river. GCWW and NKWD will tap into ORSANCO’s experience wherever
possible to supplement the PCSI.
Upstream Water Utilities
There are strong relationships between GCWW, NKWD and other water utilities operating not
only within the Ohio River basin but those operating in the ZOCC as well. Specifically New
Richmond, Clermont County, and the Tate Monroe Water Association (all of which are
groundwater systems) are all located in the ZOCC and have ongoing source water protection
activities. GCWW/NKWD will contact these and other water utilities to develop synergies within
the overlapping protection zones and share PCSI information with these other utilities.
Barge, Vehicle and Rail Monitoring
Transient potential contaminant sources represent a significant management challenge within the
overall source water protection program. As one of the United States’ Great Rivers, the Ohio
River serves as a major corridor for transportation of raw materials and consumer goods. It is
common to observe several “tows” (i.e., multiple barges lashed together and pushed by a single
tow boat) travel past the GCWW/NKWD intakes in a single day. The cargo in these “tows” is
highly variable and often consists of coal, aggregate, grain, lime, liquid petroleum products or
other bulk chemical shipments.
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 28
In addition to barge traffic, several railroad tracks are located within the source water protection
area including a line of tracks running adjacent to the Ohio River through the ZOCC and beyond.
These tracks are located near both the GCWW and the NKWD intakes and are typically within
visual distance from the river throughout their extent upstream.
Maintaining an up-to-date database of the type and frequency of cargo shipments through the
region is not feasible due to a number of factors including resource limitations and security issues.
The PCSI includes general information gathered from regional studies from such agencies as OKI
Regional Council of Governments or a Southwest Ohio Hazardous Materials Commodity Flow
Study prepared for the EMAs of Brown, Butler, Hamilton, Clermont and Warren Counties in Ohio.
Information from such studies will be incorporated into the PCSI whenever possible.
Interviews
Industrial activities along the Ohio River are varied and typically beyond the realm of expertise of
the members of the source water protection team. Accordingly, GCWW and NKWD will discuss
their operations with other stakeholders along the river for the purpose of gaining information
about their industrial processes, chemical storage, and spill prevention strategies. This will
comprise an ad hoc program since it will be difficult to predict the availability and willingness of
key personnel to share potentially sensitive information about their operations. These interactions
will also serve as a component of our outreach program by providing an avenue to educate
industries about the sensitivity of the drinking water supply and to exchange emergency contact
information.
In addition to industrial river users, GCWW and NKWD will engage other interested parties who
work to understand and/or preserve the river. It is anticipated that some of these entities will be
conservation-oriented groups who have experience working on the Ohio River. Potential sources
of information may include: researchers, conservation groups, fishermen and hunters, water
customers, recreational boaters, etc. Any information gathered from secondhand sources will be
confirmed prior to entry into the PCSI.
Summary of the Potential Contaminant Source Inventory
The GCWW and NKWD have identified a total of 44 potential contaminant sites within the Zone
of Critical Concern. Similarly, an additional 822 potential contaminant sources have been
identified in the Zone of High Concern for a total of 866 potential contaminant sources in the
combined ZOCC and ZOHC. The scheme used to prioritize these potential contaminant sources
is provided in Section 4.
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 29
Based on the type and/or volume of material transported, manufactured or stored, some of the most
critical potential contaminant sources in the ZOCC and ZOHC are:
Commercial Towing (Barges)
Hazardous material transport by trucks over the Combs-Hehl bridge
Petroleum, chemical or ash storage at power generating stations
Publically Owned Treatment Works
Non-Point Source Runoff
* The impact of non-point source contamination is estimated. Non-point source contamination will be discussed further in Section 4.
Railroad
Petroleum and chemical storage near the river
The list provided above is limited to the ZOCC and ZOHC. Other important potential sources
of contamination for the Ohio River are spills, discharges, and non-point source contaminants
flowing into the GCWW/NKWD management area from further upstream in the watershed.
Due to potential security concerns with publically available documents, the name and location of
individual PSCI facilities have been provided in general terms and are not uniquely identified on
maps in this plan. A map showing the distribution of sites throughout both the ZOCC and the
ZOHC is presented in Figure 10.
A discussion of the seven potential contaminant sources listed above is provided in the following
sections. The complete PSCI is included in Appendix A.
Commercial Towing (Barges)
As previously mentioned, the transportation of goods and materials by barge is prevalent on the
Ohio River. Typically barges are lashed together as a “tow” typically two barges wide and several
barges long. The tow is then pushed from behind by a towboat. Empty barges are staged at various
locations up and down the river when not in use. Barges are loaded and emptied at facilities located
at the river bank and the contents are typically transported to and from storage areas by conveyor
belts or piping. The tow boats typically have several thousand gallons of onboard fuel storage.
The United States Coast Guard (USCG) enforces laws and regulations on the river as well as
conducting emergency response activities. The USACE is responsible for maintaining the
navigability of the river.

The US Army Corps of Engineers Waterborne Commerce Statistics for the Ohio River for 2011
indicates that a total of 239 million tons of cargo moved through the Ohio River Basin. The
breakdown of the cargo is as follows:

Source: US Army Corps of Engineers Waterborne Commerce Statistics
for the Ohio River, 2011
Recent news stories indicate, however, that the amount of crude oil shipped by barge may increase
substantially. Likewise, it is anticipated that the amount of coal shipments may decline as coal-
fired power plants are forced to cease operations due to revised emissions standards and natural
gas becomes more prominent as a commercially-viable alternative fuel.
A study commissioned by the emergency management agencies of Hamilton, Butler, Brown,
Clermont, and Warren counties in Ohio in 2013 includes a summary of hazardous materials
transportation on the Ohio River. The study offers a detailed summary of the hazardous cargo
shipped between the Markland and Meldahl dams. Specifically, the study found that 70% of the
cargo shipped past downtown Cincinnati comprises hazardous materials (Blue Rock, 2013). The
majority of the hazardous cargo is petroleum compounds and oils. Present in smaller amounts, the
remainder comprises industrial chemicals such as alcohol and sodium hydroxide or fertilizer and
urea.
Based on these two studies, it appears that while coal and aggregate are the commodities most
frequently transported by barge in the Ohio River basin, significant quantities of petroleum
products are transported in the ZOCC.
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 32
Hazardous material transport by trucks over the Combs-Hehl Bridge
The Combs-Hehl Bridge is a double span steel cantilever bridge that spans the Ohio River
approximately 1 mile upstream of the intakes. The bridge was completed in 1979 and carries
Interstate Highway I-275 from Hamilton County, Ohio to Campbell County, Kentucky. Storm
water and drainage from the bridge discharge directly to the Ohio River. The bridge is
administered by the Kentucky Department of Transportation and carries approximately 57,000
vehicles including 2,700 trucks, everyday (OKI, 2007). Of the daily truck traffic, 9% of
commercial traffic on I-275 at the Kellogg Avenue exit (essentially this is representative of the
traffic on the bridge) is hazardous materials as defined by the Department of Transportation (DOT)
(Blue Rock, 2013). Based on the OKI and Blue Rock studies, 10 to 20 hazardous materials
vehicles cross the bridge every hour.
Electrical Generation
Two large coal-fired power plants are located in the ZOCC; the Zimmer and Beckjord power
generating stations. The Beckjord Station, which is owned by Duke Energy, has been
decommissioned and all the fuel and chemical storage has been eliminated however there are
several impoundments along the river that contain coal combustion residuals (ash). The station
will be demolished over the period of 2015 through 2018.
The Zimmer Power Plant in Moscow, Ohio, was recently purchased by Dynegy, Inc. from Duke
Energy. Several large aboveground storage tanks are located at Zimmer including 3 million
gallons of diesel fuel storage.
Publically Owned Treatment Works
Bacterial contamination is one of the most prevalent types of water quality impacts to the Ohio
River. Of the 981 miles of the Ohio River main stem, 630.8 of those miles are classified as
“impaired” for primary contact recreation (US EPA, 2013) due to bacteria. The sources of bacteria
in the Ohio River are varied and include permitted discharges from Publically-Owned Treatment
Works (POTWs) amongst other sources. There are several POTWs in ZOCC and ZOHC
watershed including Clermont County’s Nine-Mile Creek facility in Ohio and Kentucky Sanitation
District One’s (SD-1) East Regional Treatment Plant. Each plant discharges treated wastewater
under individual NPDES permits. Clermont County discharges to Ninemile Creek, which joins
the Ohio River at river mile 455, or approximately 8 miles upstream from the GCWW/NKWD
intakes. SD-1’s East Regional Treatment plant discharges to Twelvemile Creek, which joins the
Ohio River on the Kentucky side at river mile 451.5. The risks associated with these facilities
include pass-through contaminants not removed by the treatment process, elevated nitrate and
phosphorous, low-concentrations of pharmaceuticals and personal care products and plant upsets
or bypass events that would result in untreated sewage and pathogens being released to the river.
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 33
In addition to the conditions described above, WWTPs can contribute to the bacterial loading to
the river via wet weather bypasses from combined sewer overflows (CSOs). Serving to relieve
pressure at the WWTP due to large rain events in sewer systems that collect storm water through
the same system as sanitary waste, CSOs can release untreated sewage directly to the receiving
streams. There are 34 sewer systems upstream of the intakes that have CSOs that discharge
directly to the Ohio River (US EPA 2013). There are likely others that discharge to the tributaries
throughout the Extended Area. The US EPA has recognized the impact of bacteria on the water
quality in the Ohio River and is currently developing a Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) for
the river.
Non-Point Source Runoff
A significant portion of the upstream watershed is agricultural land, especially areas drained by
the Scioto River in central Ohio. Runoff associated with agricultural areas may contain nutrients
from fertilizers as well as residual pesticide and herbicide compounds. Runoff may be exacerbated
by field drains and other drainage features that quickly remove excess water from farm fields.
Nutrient compounds typically include nitrogen-bearing compounds such as ammonia, nitrate, and
nitrite as well as dissolved and total phosphorus and orthophosphate. Nitrate and nitrite both have
maximum contaminant levels for finished drinking water (10 mg/L and 1 mg/l, respectively) due
to potential health risks. Common herbicides and pesticides include atrazine, simazine, and
glyphosate, all of which also have MCLs (3, 4, and 700 ug/L, respectively). Excess nutrients have
also been linked to harmful algal blooms (HABs). The overall level of nitrate in the Ohio River
at the GCWW/NKWD intakes is typically less than 1 mg/L and appears to have been declining
over the past decade. Chart 1 shows the concentration of nitrate in the GCWW raw water since
2005.

Railroad
CSX currently owns and operates a rail line that connects terminals in Cincinnati to Ashland,
Kentucky. The tracks are located within the floodplain of the Ohio River and parallel the river
throughout the ZOCC. In general the tracks are less than 0.25 miles from the river throughout that
reach. It is anticipated that the cargo travelling this line is varied and includes (at least) coal,
aggregate, grain and possibly bulk chemicals. Future inventory and outreach activities will focus
on developing a better understanding of the goods and materials transported along this line.
The risks associated with the railroad are both physical as well as chemical. The physical risk is
that a derailment near the intakes could damage the intake structures or block access to the intakes
while the chemical threats arise from a potential derailment or leaking tank car releasing chemicals
to the Ohio River.

Rail transportation is prevalent throughout the Extended Area and it is anticipated that the goods
traversing this area are highly variable. One item of note is that at least one rail corridor is used to
transport crude oil through the extended zone from the Bakken region of North Dakota to refineries
on the East Coast. The “crude-by-rail” corridor closest to the intakes is operated by CSX and
travels south near or along the Scioto River from Columbus to east of Portsmouth, Ohio. Upon
entering the Ohio River valley this line, part of the historic Chesapeake and Ohio (C&O) line,
crosses the river near Portsmouth, parallels the river to Huntington, WV, and then over land to the
Kanawha Valley before travelling to refineries in Virginia. In 2015, a total of 157.6 million barrels
(6.6 trillion gallons) traversed the region known as Petroleum Administration for Defense Districts
(PADD) 2 (which includes Ohio and the oil producing regions of North Dakota) to PADD 1 (which
includes the east coast). That is an average of 18.1 million gallons of crude oil being transported
east daily, the majority of which likely travels through portions of the Extended Zone. (Association
of American Railroads, November 2015).
Petroleum and Chemical Storage
Petroleum is stored at many of the facilities in both the ZOCC and ZOHC. There is at least 3
million gallons of petroleum storage capacity in the ZOCC upstream of the intake. In general the
petroleum storage is in aboveground storage tanks (ASTs) with less than 500 gallons to several
thousand gallons, however there are two large (approximately 1.5 million gallons) ASTs at an
upstream power generating station. The current inventory includes hundreds of individual ASTs
in the ZOCC and ZOHC and it is anticipated that future inventory activities will refine that number.
In addition to ASTs, bulk chemicals and petroleum products are stored throughout the protection
zones in a variety of totes, temporary tanks, underground storage tanks, and drums. In excess of
two million gallons of petroleum storage was removed from the ZOCC when the Beckjord plant
ceased operation.
Petroleum and chemical storage is assumed to be prevalent throughout the Extended Zone with
several very large bulk petroleum storage areas located immediately adjacent to the river upstream
of Portsmouth, Ohio, including an oil refinery at Catlettsburg, Kentucky.
Future PCSI Activities
The development, expansion, and maintenance of the PCSI will be an ongoing part of the Source
Water Protection Program. Based on previous experience, it is difficult to predict what tools and
data will become available to assist in the development and maintenance of the PCSI. At a
minimum, the contact information for key personnel at facilities in the ZOCC will be updated
every 2 years and the entire potential contaminant source inventory will be updated at least every
5 years.
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 36
PCSI Data Management
One of the challenges of maintaining the PCSI is not only gathering sufficient initial information
but the subsequent ability to update and manage those data in a manner that facilitates easy access
and to generate reports that adequately convey the nature of risk to decision makers. Up to this
point, the PCSI has been maintained in spreadsheets and basic databases, each of which has
significant limitations. GCWW was recently part of a project funded by the Water Research
Foundation to develop a standard operating procedure for gathering PCSI information and the
development of a GIS-based tool called WaterSuiteTM (under commercial development by Corona
Environmental) for storing, sorting, updating, viewing, and analyzing PSCI data. It is anticipated
that this tool will facilitate gathering publicly-available database information on a frequent and
easy basis while simultaneously allowing the input of user-generated information. If successful,
this tool will facilitate inventory data analysis and will ensure GCWW/NKWD have the most
recent information from state and federal databases.
In the event the WaterSuite platform does not meet our needs, GCWW and NKWD will continue
to investigate technology-based data management tools so the maximum value of the inventory
data can be achieved.
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 37
4.0 Prioritization of Potential Contaminant Sources
As previously mentioned, the current PCSI contains 866 sites that have been identified in the
ZOCC and ZOHC. Because these sites vary widely in size and potential risk, the sites have been
prioritized to focus management efforts. The priority scheme consists of “High”, “Medium”, and
“Low” priority site designations. High priority sites are defined as site conditions that could have
an immediate impact on the water quality in the river that would require time-critical actions by
GCWW and NKWD. Medium priority sites have a moderate probability of impacting the river in
a manner that would require action from the utilities. Medium priority sites also tend to have
relatively less toxic or smaller quantities of stored chemicals or petroleum. Low priority was
assigned to facilities that are either far from the river, store small quantities of relatively non-toxic
chemicals, or there is a very low likelihood of a release to the river (e.g., chemical storage inside
a building, small heating oil tanks away from surface streams, etc.).
Site-Specific Prioritization
A site classification system was developed based on the primary site use or characteristics. A list
of 142 site categories, which was developed based on the list of site categories used in several of
the Federal databases originally downloaded into the PCSI, is presented in Appendix D. Each site
category was “scored” by the planning committee in each of the source water management zones
as either high, medium, or low priority based on the following criteria:
Chemical properties (toxicity, reactivity, specific gravity, miscibility, etc.)
Quantity of chemicals stored
Containment structures, spill response plans (SPCC or FRP), spill response training
Distance to the intakes
Previous discharge of pollutants
Proximity to surface water
Route of potential discharge
Compliance history and housekeeping practices
Amount of regulatory oversight
Permit limitations and potential for violations
Treatability of potential contaminants
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 38
Ability of ODS (see monitoring section for description) to detect stored chemicals
Based on this prioritization, the distribution of sites located in the ZOCC and ZOHC is summarized
in Table 2.
This site prioritization will be used as the basis of the protective strategies describe in Section 6
and the allocation of resources during implementation of the program. The priority may be re-
evaluated as specific situations that have not been captured in the PCSI are identified or as potential
water quality impacts by certain facilities or processes become better understood.
The prioritization scheme is limited to the ZOCC and ZOHC. There are contaminant sources,
including some very large potential sources located outside the ZOCC/ZOHC that may pose some
of the most significant threats to the water quality in the Ohio River. As described in Section 1,
significant historical spills such as the Carbon Tetrachloride Release in 1977, the Ashland Oil Spill
in 1988, the EDB spill in 1994, and the Elk River MCHM spill in 2014 all originated upstream of
GCWW/NKWD and well outside the ZOCC and the ZOHC. The PCSI is currently limited to the
ZOCC and ZOHC however the future addition of sites further upstream may significantly alter the
prioritization approach.
Table 2. Summary of sites by Priority in the ZOCC and ZOHC

Site Prioritya ZOCC ZOHC
High 21 106
Medium 23 320
Low 0 396 a For sites that have more than one potential category, the site priority was
established based on the highest applicable priority
Nutrients and Harmful Algal Bloom Triggers
The site-specific prioritization scheme described in the previous section may not adequately
capture non-point sources, the importance of nutrients, or the potential triggers and impact of
harmful algal blooms (HABs) on the water quality in the Ohio River. Although the concentrations
of nutrients such as nitrate are generally low compared to the MCL’s, they are present in sufficient
concentrations to foster algal growth when conditions permit. Consequently nutrient loading and
other HAB triggers (which are not currently fully understood) have been assigned a “High”
priority. Prior to 2015 it was generally assumed that the river velocity and turbidity of the Ohio
River would limit the growth of blue-green algae and the development of HABs. Unlike other
potential contaminant sources, HABs on the Ohio River are more complex and likely related to a
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 39
variety of factors. Regardless, HABs present a significant challenge to water treatment plants and
so have been assigned a High Priority as well.
Summary of Prioritization of Potential Contaminant Sources to the Ohio River
As described in the previous sections, the Ohio River has been designated as Highly Susceptible
to contamination by the Ohio EPA. An inventory of potential contaminant sources has been
created and will be updated and expanded as part of the Source Water Protection Program. Based
on the current understanding of the PCSI, specific water quality threats to the Ohio River include
(but are not limited to):
Spills of petroleum compounds or other chemicals from a variety of potential sources such
as pipeline breaks, industrial spills, train derailments, oil/gas drilling operations, barge
accidents, storage tank failures, etc.
Nutrient and herbicide/pesticide loading from agricultural runoff and wastewater treatment
discharges, not only within the inner management zones but throughout the entire upstream
watershed.
Large quantity chemical or petroleum storage located within the ZOCC.
Spills on the Comb-Hehl bridge due to truck or other vehicle accidents.
Train derailments, including onboard locomotive fuel storage, hazardous cargo, and unit
trains of petroleum products.
Barge or tow boat accidents.
Harmful Algal Blooms.
Failure of coal ash landfills, both within the ZOCC, ZOHC, and throughout the upstream
watershed.
Permitted industrial discharges to the Ohio River.
WWTPs and permitted discharge of difficult-to-treat compounds such as residual
pharmaceutical compounds and other personal care products.
Unpermitted or illicit discharges, especially in the ZOCC.
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 40
5.0 Protective Strategies
Based on the PCSI and the subsequent prioritization, GCWW and NKWD have developed several
management strategies to reduce or eliminate the risk associated with each of these threats. Due
to the complexity of regulations that already apply to the river and the number of agencies and
jurisdictions in the upstream area, both GCWW and NKWD desire to employ voluntary strategies
as much as possible in the implementation of this plan. The potential for seeking regulatory
assistance to implement these strategies exists but the program will start as a voluntary program
and will remain that way unless a regulatory approach becomes necessary.
The strategies include:
Combs-Hehl Bridge Program
Transportation-Related Spill Notification and Mitigation
Voluntary Notification Program
New Regulation and Discharge Permit Application Review
Reservoir Water Quality Protection
Nutrient Reduction Program
Source Water Defender Recognition Program
The following sections provide an overview of each protective strategy.
Combs-Hehl Bridge Program
Given the location of the bridge relative to the intakes, a special program specifically targeting risk
reduction associated with the Combs-Hehl Bridge has been developed. In Phase 1 of this program,
GCWW and NKWD will work closely with the first responders and Emergency Management
Agencies (EMA’s) of Hamilton County, Ohio and Campbell County to develop procedures to
facilitate immediate notification to the utilities whenever a traffic accident is reported on the
bridge.
In Phase 2 of the program, GCWW/NKWD will open a dialogue with the Kentucky Department
of Transportation to (if possible) divert storm water that would drain to the left-descending bank
to the right-descending bank. Currently storm water drains through the collection system directly
down to the river, which means in the event of an accident any spilled material or firefighting
runoff will likewise drain straight down to the river. Previous studies by the USGS, with support
from GCWW and the American Water Works Association Water Research Foundation (USGS,
2009), have demonstrated that there is limited lateral dispersion within the Markland pool and that,
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 41
generally, material spilled on the left-descending bank of the river tends to stay on that side.
Likewise, material spilled on the right-descending bank will generally remain on that side of the
river. By capturing and diverting runoff away from the left-descending bank, any spilled material
will likewise be diverted away from the side of the river with the intakes. This approach does not
protect the river from potential contamination. It does, however, move the potential contamination
away from the intakes where it may pass by the intakes without entering, thus protecting the
drinking water source.
Transportation-Related Spill Notification and Mitigation
While the Combs-Hehl Bridge is a specific transportation-related threat to the water quality,
transportation by trucks, trains and barges represent additional significant potential sources of
contamination of the source water. The following subsections describe general plans for
mitigating the threat posed by transportation-related sources.
Rail
As described in Section 3, CSX operates an approximately 130 mile long rail line from Cincinnati
to Ashland, KY and points east from there. In addition, CSX is one of the rail operators that
transport crude oil via rail in the extended protection area. GCWW and NKWD will develop a
specific program with CSX to discuss notification procedures and emergency response actions in
the event of a derailment or other accident that releases chemicals or hazardous materials. A
cornerstone of this program will be to streamline communications with the railroad for the rapid
exchange of information. If possible, the water utilities will participate in contingency planning
with the railroad.
Barge/Marine
Commercial and recreational boating brings potential contaminants close to the intakes of both
utilities and represents not only chemical threats but also physical threats should barges or boats
crash into the intake structures. GCWW and NKWD will implement the following:
Create an inventory of tow boat operators working the Markland pool.
Meet with tow boat operators; create specific programs with them to ensure timely spill
reporting and other procedures, such as refueling locations, barge staging areas, etc. that
protect the intakes.
Meet with the Coast Guard to review current regulations and determine whether additional
protections may be implemented. Additionally, GCWW/NKWD will work with the Coast
Guard and USACE to prohibit the staging or “laying off” of barges in the area near the
intakes.
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 42
Monitor USACE lockmaster records to update barge contents inventory.
Install signs at marinas for recreational boaters with spill reporting information.
Vehicle
Generally cars and light trucks do not carry enough petroleum or chemicals to affect the Ohio
River to the point of endangering the quality of the source water. Tanker trucks, however, carry
larger quantities that could, if the contents enter the river via either surface streams or storm sewer,
affect the water quality. Signs have been installed as part of other conservation and water quality
improvement programs in many areas of the ZOCC and ZOHC instructing people how to report a
spill in the event of an accident. The sign coverage will be reviewed and additional signs will be
recommended or installed as needed/possible. In addition, GCWW and NKWD will work directly
with the EMA of Clermont and Hamilton Counties in Ohio and Campbell, Pendleton, and Bracken
counties in Kentucky to include notification to GCWW and NKWD by 911 operators for traffic
accidents that occur in the ZOCC.
Voluntary Notification Program
Any entity that has a spill or release is required to notify the National Response Center (NRC),
Ohio EPA and/or KDEP and local authorities of spills or releases, including those that may affect
the Ohio River. In the case of spills reported in the Ohio River, the NRC notifies ORSANCO, as
well as other regulatory and response agencies. ORSANCO, through their Spill Notification and
Emergency Response Program, then notifies the drinking water utilities downstream of the spill
location. While this system works effectively, the drinking water utilities are dependent upon
other agencies for notification of a spill. If the spill is close to the water intake, such as in the
ZOCC, the time it takes for the responsible party to notify the NRC and for that notification to
subsequently reach GCWW/NKWD may leave little to no time for the utilities to take appropriate
response measures. To augment the regulatory notification, GCWW and NKWD developed an
outreach program tailored to facilities located in the ZOCC that includes specific instructions for
also contacting the treatment plant operators directly in the event of a spill. This program, which
is called the Voluntary Notification Program, worked effectively during a diesel fuel spill on the
Ohio River in August, 2014 when 9,000 gallons of diesel fuel were released from the Beckjord
facility into the Ohio River. After making their required notifications, Duke Energy followed the
instructions provided to them under this program and notified the utilities directly. The utilities
received that direct notification approximately 2 hrs. before receiving notification through other
channels.
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 43
The purpose of the program is:
To open and maintain lines of communication between facility personnel in the ZOCC
and the GCWW/NKWD.
Provide the facility operators with contact information so they are able to directly notify
GCWW/NKWD in the event a release occurs.
Relay to the facility operators that the goal of this notification program is to provide the
utilities as much time as possible to stop raw water pumping or change their treatment
process if needed.
Discuss with facility operators the need for spill response training including their
regulatory reporting responsibilities.
Components of this program include:
Face-to-face meetings with a representative from each high-priority facilities in the
ZOCC.
Providing a fact sheet describing the Voluntary Notification Program
Laminated information sheets with contact instructions for GCWW and NKWD.
Periodic follow-up with each facility to ensure contact information is up-to-date and
facilities remain aware of the program.
Encourage facility operators to understand all their reporting requirements and keep the
appropriate phone numbers and reporting procedures in easily accessible locations.
New Regulation and Discharge Permit Application Review
GCWW and NKWD will monitor legislative and regulatory activity to determine whether
new/revised laws or regulations may impact source water quality or the Source Water Protection
Program. At a minimum the following will be monitored:
ORSANCO Pollution Control Standards
US EPA Regulations
State (Ohio, Kentucky, West Virginia, Pennsylvania) Regulatory Programs
US Coast Guard Regulations and Guidance
US Army Corp of Engineers Regulation and Guidance
Discharge Permit Applications (new sources or renewals)
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 44
GCWW/NKWD will, as appropriate, comment on laws, regulations, policies, or discharges that
may result in impairment of the water quality or otherwise result in changes to treatment strategies
or require additional water treatment.
In addition to potentially commenting on new or altered laws and regulation, GCWW and NKWD
will continue to monitor discharge permit applications, both new sources and renewal applications.
Comments on these applications will be provided to the various state agencies as needed.
Reservoir Water Quality Protection
Both GCWW and NKWD operate reservoirs off the Ohio River. Specifically, GCWW operates
two brick-lined reservoirs surrounded by the California Golf Course off Kellogg Avenue in
Cincinnati. The two reservoirs were built circa 1904 and currently have a combined storage
capacity of over 340 million gallons. Water in the reservoirs has been treated for solids removal
at the Lamella Facility.
The NKWD also operates two reservoirs at the Fort Thomas Treatment Plant. The water in the
NKWD reservoirs is untreated raw water that has been pumped from the NKWD intake. The
reservoirs are rock lined and were built in 1891 with a combined capacity of 72 million gallons.
The NKWD reservoirs are surrounded by residential developments.
GCWW Reservoirs
The City of Cincinnati owns and operates the California Golf Course. The settling reservoirs for
GCWW are located within this golf course. GCWW has no direct control over the operations of
the golf course; however, historically golf course personnel have been cooperative with requests
from GCWW. In order to minimize direct runoff of any pesticides or herbicides, short berms,
approximately 6-inches high surround the reservoirs and direct any runoff to storm sewers. The
following programs have been developed to minimize the risk of adverse impacts to the water in
the reservoirs:
1. Periodic inspection of the berms to ensure they are intact the entire circumference of
both reservoirs. The berms will be inspected at least one a year and staff instructed to
report any breaches seen during casual observation.
2. Staff from GCWW will contact the golf course managers on an annual basis to maintain
a working relationship, discuss proper herbicide and pesticide application rates and
determine what chemicals are being applied. GCWW will discuss turf management
plans and ensure that grass clipping are directed away from the reservoirs during
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 45
mowing. GCWW may, periodically, analyze water from downstream of the reservoirs
to determine whether the golf course is impacting water quality.
Nutrient Reduction Program
As previously stated, nitrate and other nutrients, such as phosphorus compounds, are not currently
a direct problem for either GCWW or NKWD from a water quality or MCL standpoint. The
nutrients are, however, an indirect concern as they may trigger or facilitate the growth of HABs,
which could, in turn, have a direct impact on the water quality. The US EPA maintains a data
portal that shows the location of streams and rivers that are impaired relative to nutrients based on
criteria in the Clean Water Act (CWA). Based on the US EPA data, there is only one small stream,
Tenmile Creek (Campbell Co., Kentucky, ORM 453.5) in Kentucky, that is in non-attainment
status for nutrients in either the ZOCC or ZOHC. In the extended area, however, there are a
significant number of rivers and streams in the Scioto River basin as well as the Hocking and Little
Muskingum basins, that are in non-attainment status for nutrients (http://gispub2.epa.gov/npdat/).
A summary of the tributaries that flow into the Ohio River (HUC 8 or larger) that are in non-
attainment status is included below:
Table 3. Summary of Direct Tributaries in Non-Attainment Status for Nutrients

This is consistent with the land use summaries provided by the USGS that describes the
concentration of agricultural uses throughout central Ohio. Several small individual potential
nutrient sources are identified by the US EPA within the ZOHC/ZOCC and those sites will be
evaluated as part of the ongoing PCSI inventory updates.
Due to the distance from the intakes and resource limitations, it is beyond the scope of the GCWW
and NKWD source water protection program to directly affect changes to nutrient loading
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 46
throughout central Ohio and elsewhere. In recognition of the importance of nutrient loading to the
Ohio River, however, GCWW and NKWD will monitor and comment on changes to the laws and
permits that could have an impact on nutrient loading. Additionally, GCWW and NKWD will
support nutrient trading programs that will result in an overall decline in concentrations in the
river. The utilities may monitor water quality in Tenmile creek and develop an outreach program
to potential nutrient contributors in the Tenmile Creek drainage basin to help reduce nutrient
loading.
“Source Water Defender” Program
Most of the ZOCC and ZOHC is not located within the same municipal jurisdiction (or service
area) of either GCWW or NKWD. This limits the ability of the utilities to have local source water
protection ordinances enacted. In order to engage and motivate business and industries in the
ZOCC and ZOHC to participate in the Source Water Protection Program, GCWW and NKWD
will develop a recognition program for entities that meet certain minimum criteria. Business and
industries meeting these criteria will be designated a Source Water Defender and will be permitted
to display a logo and/or certification language at their facility or on the letterhead, etc. The
program will require renewal every two years and will be administered by GCWW and NKWD.
The threshold criteria will be further developed but, at a minimum, will include elements that result
in actual risk mitigation or reduction. Possible threshold criteria include:
Participation in the Voluntary Notification Program
Bi-annual contact update meeting
Best Management Practices for fuel and chemical handling and storage
Maintaining a Facility Spill Mitigation Plan
Annual Employee Training for reporting releases and spill response
Other potential criteria may also include:
Hazardous chemical inventory reduction
Onsite reconnaissance by GCWW or NKWD personnel to observe and inventory chemical
storage areas, outfalls, chemical transfer areas, spill response equipment, etc.
Periodic secondary containment inspection
Establishing Baseline Water Quality
Establishing long-term source water quality trends are critical to GCWW and NKWD for a number
of reasons including:
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 47
Determining the most appropriate day-to-day treatment approach
Identifying subtle, long-term changes to water quality, identifying the cause of the change,
and developing the appropriate response.
Identifying key water quality parameters such as total organic carbon, or turbidity, which
can be targeted for improvement in the watershed, to the overall benefit of each utility.
Quantifying the effect of new discharges or changing land use in the upstream watershed.
Identifying acute short-term changes to water quality that could represent either seasonal
variation or an industrial discharge or spill.
GCWW, NKWD, and ORSANCO will maintain or expand their ongoing water quality sampling
programs to continue to profile the baseline water quality in the ZOCC near the intakes. These
data will be reviewed periodically to evaluate trends in baseline water conditions. Specific projects
designed to characterize the water flowing into the ZOCC may be initiated to determine the water
quality in the nearby tributaries. In the event that programs are established to limit the effect of
specific non-point source contamination in either the ZOCC or the ZOHC, the baseline data may
be used to determine the effectiveness of those programs.
Existing in-stream monitoring, such as ORSANCO’s ODS system, will continue to be supported.
Specific sampling plans will be described in the Monitoring Section in Section 8.
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 48
6.0 Education and Outreach
An active education and outreach program will enable the GCWW and NKWD to raise the
awareness of people and businesses about the sensitivity of the Ohio River as a drinking water
source and demonstrate how their activities impact our source water, both positively and
negatively. As in all aspects of this program, GCWW and NKWD will adopt a cooperative
approach and work with the several existing education foundations and non-profit educational
groups to promote our message.
In order to facilitate the various public education projects, a Public Education Committee (PEC)
will be formed. The PEC will comprise members from other outreach organizations and from
members of the Stakeholder Group. The PEC will develop and administer specific public outreach
programs based on input from the planning committee. One of the first tasks of the PEC will be
to develop a new name and logo for the NKWD-GCWW source water protection partnership.
Industry outreach programs will be developed to educate other river users about the presence of
our intakes, our concerns about water quality, and the necessity for clear and rapid communication
in the event of a spill.
Finally, outreach programs will be implemented to inform emergency response organizations and
other regulatory agencies about our drinking water concerns and our need for information during
response actions.
The following sections describe several potential outreach mechanisms; others will likely be
developed during implementation of the plan.
Presentations
GCWW and NKWD will seek opportunities to make presentations to civic groups, community
organizations, industries, etc. when possible. Priority will be given to groups in our ZOCC and
ZOHC but presentations will also be made to our customers so they will be aware of our protection
activities as well.
Consumer Confidence Report
GCWW/NKWD will describe the source of its drinking water, its susceptibility to contamination,
and efforts to protect it in the annual consumer confidence report. A contact number will also be
provided where consumers can call to get more information about protection of their water sources.
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 49
Websites and Social Media
A program-specific website will be developed to educate the public and the customers of each
utility about the ongoing source water protection activities. In addition to describing the source
water program, the website will include information about ongoing activities, successful water
quality improvements, background information about the river and the GCWW/NKWD treatment
capabilities, etc. GCWW and NKWD will explore opportunities to work with local university
students to develop videos and other digital media. Social media will be used to further educate
the public and inform them about source water protection-related news. Social media outlets will
likely change over time but may include:
A Facebook page
Periodic Twitter postings
Encouraging stakeholders to link stories on LinkedIn
Others as they become available
Festivals
There are several annual festivals in both Ohio and Kentucky celebrating the rich history and
multiple uses of the Ohio River. The festivals often include a variety of river-related music,
recreational activities, and educational opportunities. GCWW/NKWD will look for ways to
become involved in these events such as sponsoring booths, providing speakers, and other support
at festivals to educate adults and children about the Ohio River as a Drinking Water Source and
ways to protect it.
Brochures and Fact sheets
General Public Brochure – A brochure focused toward the general public will be developed and
distributed at public outreach events and through general mailings. The brochure will describe the
importance of protecting the Ohio River for drinking water use, provide suggestions each
individual can do, and list contact numbers for spill reporting and further information. Other fact
sheets and brochures will be developed as needed.
Facility and Industry-Specific Brochures and Outreach
As previously described, GCWW and NKWD will open lines of communication with industries
upstream of the intakes in the ZOCC and ZOHC. As part of these ongoing contacts, outreach and
education materials will be developed to reinforce with the facility operators the sensitivity of the
river to contamination and the concerns we, as water utilities, have in maintaining or improving
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 50
the water quality in the river. The following sections provide an overview of several proposed
outreach strategies.
General Industry
A brochure focused toward specific potential pollution sources will be developed and distributed
to facilities within the zone of critical and high concerns. Large or high risk facilities outside the
ZOHC but within the source water protection area may also be selected for brochure distribution.
The purpose of the brochure will be to remind facilities of drinking water intakes downstream of
their facility, provide contact information in the event of a spill, and educate them as to why a
drinking water utility (possibly several hundred miles away) has an interest in the operations at
their facility. To the extent possible, high-risk facilities in the extended zone will be visited
whenever possible. As previously described, high priority sites in the ZOCC will be visited on a
periodic basis to inform facility personnel about ongoing source water protection initiatives.
Transportation Outreach
Due to the nature of the transportation related facilities in the ZOCC, a special program will be
developed for rail, barge, and bridges. As previously indicated, CSX owns and operates the
railroad tracks located adjacent to the GCWW and NKWD intake structures. Additionally, those
tracks run parallel (and very close to) the Ohio River in the ZOCC. Given the proximity of those
tracks to the intakes and the river, the variability of cargo, and the complexity of communication
with the railroad a CSX-specific outreach program has been developed. GCWW has contacted
CSX and will continue to work directly with the CSX emergency management division to
streamline those communications.
Other Outreach Opportunities
ORSANCO provides basin-wide opportunities for outreach and public education through a variety
of public meetings, which include:
the triannual meetings of Commissioners;
public workshops and hearings during the triennial review of the Commission’s Pollution
Control Standards;
project-specific workshops (such as the CSO workshop); and
programs provided by the Commission public information section, such as the mobile
aquarium, school-based volunteer monitoring and the ORSANCO Ohio River Education
Foundation’s floating classroom.
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 51
The Foundation for Ohio River Education (FORE) is a 501c(3) non-profit organization that was
founded by ORSANCO in 2003 to design, manage, and raise funds for educational programs in
the Ohio River Basin. FORE has developed a curriculum for high schools that includes activities
focused on watersheds, point and non-point source pollution, and water monitoring. FORE has
also developed additional programming for elementary schools, community groups, and the
general public. Additionally, FORE partners with agencies and organizations throughout the Ohio
River Watershed to offer training opportunities for teachers, scientists, and environmental
educators. The Greater Cincinnati Area citizens, especially students, participate in these
ORSANCO-sponsored programs on a regular basis. The director of FORE has agreed to work
with GCWW/NKWD to ensure a coordinated outreach effort.
ORSANCO Water Users Advisory Committee
Experience has shown that there is a significant benefit to cooperation between drinking water
utilities on the Ohio River. In recognition of this, ORSANCO formed an advisory group called
the Water Users Advisory Committee and GCWW and NKWD have been active members of this
committee for many years. The committee, which comprises members from Ohio River surface
water utilities and industrial water users, meets three times a year, and communicates via e-mail
and conference call if needed to discuss issues potentially affecting the water quality in the Ohio
River.
The committee directly advises the ORSANCO Commissioners on issues that affect use of the
water, predominantly for drinking water. The committee meetings provide an opportunity for
utilities from the full length of the river to come together and discuss issues pertaining to the river.
The Committee advises the Commission on research needs, regulatory changes, and other issues
related to water quality and quantity.
GCWW and NKWD will continue to actively participate in this committee as it provides an avenue
for connection with other utilities along the river, provides a mechanism to influence change in
ORSANCO activities, and enhances source water protection efforts. Additionally, development
of this “community” of water utilities on the Ohio River facilitates communication and information
sharing during emergencies such as spills.
Signage Program
There are several large marinas within the ZOCC and within a mile downstream of the intakes.
Signs may be placed at public and, with the owner’s permission, private boat ramps and marinas.
The signs will notify boaters that there are drinking water intakes in the area and ask them to report
any spills to the appropriate authorities.
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 52
911 Notification Program
Based on discussions with representatives of nearby Local Emergency Planning Committees
(LEPC), GCWW and NKWD are eligible for notification by 911 operators if they receive a call
for an emergency that could affect the Ohio River. The Clermont County LEPC, Hamilton County
LEPC, and the Northern Kentucky Emergency Planning Commission will be contacted to have the
911 operators call the control rooms of the appropriate utility under prescribed conditions.
Facility Tours and Public Presentations
GCWW and NKWD routinely provide tours through the water plants or make public presentations
about its operation. The tour program will continue and the importance of the protecting the water
quality in the upstream area will be discussed.
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 53
7.0 Contingency Planning
Both the GCWW and NKWD have developed Contingency Plans that cover all operations within
each utility. These plans are maintained at the utility and copies have been provided to, and
reviewed by, their respective regulatory agencies. Likewise, both utilities have also completed
Vulnerability Assessments which have identified Source Water as a critical vulnerability. By
identifying source water as a critical vulnerability, both utilities are prohibited from including the
specific information contained within either the Contingency Plan or the Vulnerability Assessment
in a publicly-available protection plan.
As previously stated, spills or other discharges to the Ohio River or its tributaries are among the
greatest threats to the source water quality for both GCWW and NKWD. Accordingly, much of
this source water protection program is centered on reducing the likelihood of a spill or, in the
event of a spill, ensuring that GCWW and NKWD receive accurate notification as quickly as
possible. ORSANCO tracks spill notifications and since 2000 (with the exception of 2006) there
has been at least 100 spills reported each year upstream of GCWW and NKWD. Fortunately the
majority of the spills are small and require little, if any, response by the utilities. During the period
of January through October of 2014, however, there were three significant spills that required
action by GCWW and NKWD to keep the water safe.
Despite the importance of spill management to both utilities, this Section does not comprise the
Spill Response or Emergency Response Plans for either GCWW or NKWD. This section provides
a broad overview of some of the basic parameters that have guided development of the spill and
emergency response plans. The Spill Response and Emergency Response Plans contain sensitive
information not suitable for a publically-available document. Consequently, the information
presented herein is general, by design.
Spills and other events that impair the water quality in the Ohio River generally come in two forms:
a single event comprising an accidental or illicit discharge or an unknown, possibly chronic,
release detected by source water monitoring. Details of the monitoring are provided in Section
8.0. While GCWW and NKWD will respond to a spill in accordance with their individual spill
response plans, both utilities have reservoirs of raw or partially treated water that allows them to
continue to operate their plants for limited periods of time while pumping from the river is
suspended and a contaminant plume is allowed to flow past the intakes. Furthermore, each utility
possesses advanced treatment technologies to further protect the quality of the finished water.

Spill Response (Emergency Actions)
DETAILED SPILL RESPONSE PLANS ARE MAINTAINED BY EACH UTILITY WHICH
WILL BE USED IF THERE IS A CURRENT EMERGENCY.
Notification is the key to successfully responding to a spill on the river and GCWW/NKWD have
adopted a two-pronged spill identification strategy. The first prong is to develop as many routes
of notification as possible to ensure a timely response. The second prong is participation in a
whole-river monitoring program through ORSANCO to detect unreported spills or releases.
Notification
Both GCWW and NKWD rely on ORSANCO to relay spill notification made through the National
Response Center (NRC) as the primary means to learn of spills or releases. ORSANCO receives
notification directly from the NRC and relays the information to the utilities via email. Spills that
require an immediate response, are of significant quantities, or that present an imminent danger to

a drinking water intake will be followed by telephone calls from ORSANCO to the utility.
Likewise, the Ohio EPA and the KDOW typically notify GCWW and NKWD respectively
whenever they receive notification of a spill on or near the river. Many businesses in the ZOCC
have entered into the Voluntary Notification Program as part of the source water protection
program and have agreed to call GCWW and NKWD in addition to their legally-required
notifications in the event of a spill or release. Further potential notification routes include 911,
EMA’s and local fire departments (see previous sections for descriptions). NKWD and GCWW
share notification, making sure that each of the utilities have received proper notification.
Detection
The second prong of the spill response plan is detection of unreported spills or tracking reported
spills on the river. To facilitate this, ORSANCO operates a network of water monitoring stations
down the length of the Ohio River called the Organics Detection System (ODS). The Organics
Detection System is a cooperative effort involving water utilities and other major Ohio River water
users to detect organic compounds in the river. A total of seventeen gas chromatographs (GCs)
located on the Ohio, Allegheny, Monongahela and Kanawha Rivers are operated daily to assure
that unreported releases or spills of organic compounds do not compromise drinking water intakes.
If an organic compound is detected, ORSANCO is notified by the GC operator and a verification
procedure is initiated to validate the presence of the compound in the river. Once validated, the
information is distributed to downstream water utilities, as well as state and federal agencies.
GCWW and NKWD both have advanced in-house laboratory analytical capabilities to analyze for
a variety of compounds that might be spilled.
Spill Response Planning
The GCWW/NKWD response to spills is based on several conditions including, but not limited
to:
location of the spill relative to the intakes
the compound(s) released
quantity released
velocity of the river/estimated time of arrival
level of confidence in the reported information
treatability of the released substance
ability to detect and quantify the compound(s) with in-house analytical equipment
water system demands and requirements
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 56
Spills within the ZOCC typically require immediate action on the part of GCWW and NKWD as
described in the Spill Response Plans. These responses become progressively more time critical
closer to the intakes.
In addition to ORSANCO’s sampling, GCWW and NKWD typically work together during a spill
to collect and analyze samples from both sides of the Ohio River upstream of the intakes. A list
of potentially accessible sampling locations upstream on the Ohio and Kentucky sides of the river
is maintained and included in the Spill Response Plans. In addition, Army Corps of Engineer
navigation charts and United States Geological Survey topographic maps can be consulted to
identify additional sampling locations if needed. Standing agreements are in place with Meldahl
Locks and Dam, other USACE dams, and Thomas More Biological Research Station that allow
GCWW and NKWD to utilize their facilities for sampling the river. Samples can also be collected
at various river access locations such as marinas and docks or by boat.
GCWW and NKWD maintains contact with other water utilities over the entire length of the river
and can request their assistance with sample collection further upstream of our intakes. Frequently
this sampling will include coordination with ORSANCO.
Arrival Time Calculations
Typically the arrival time of reported spills is estimated two ways by using either simple 1-
dimensional calculations or more complex numerical models. The simple calculations are based
on the average river velocity and the distance to the spill. Velocity data are obtained from the
National Weather Service (NWS) Ohio River Forecast Center. The calculated arrival times are
suitable for “first-cut” arrival time estimates or for spills that are relatively close to the intakes.
More complex numerical models use larger hydraulic datasets comprising stream gage data from
multiple sites throughout the basin to develop more comprehensive flow predictions. The models
also typically use more complex flow equations and take into account factors such as anisotropic
flow through a cross section, degradation of the chemical(s), and dilution due to inflow from
tributaries into the main stem, etc. ORSANCO, in collaboration with US EPA, has developed and
is updating an Ohio River-specific model to estimate travel times. Likewise, GCWW utilizes a
numerical model called ICWaters which can be applied to any watershed or river system using
online data from multiple stream gages. Both the calculated arrival times and the numerical models
contain uncertainties, all of which may be exacerbated by long distances or rapidly changing river
conditions.
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 57
Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant Upset Response
Northern Kentucky’s Sanitation District 1 (SD-1) operates a 4 million gallon per day, (upgradeable
to 16 MGD) wastewater treatment plant that discharges into Brush Creek and Twelvemile Creek
in Kentucky. Twelvemile Creek is a low flow creek entering the Ohio River at approximately
River Mile 451.6. Shortly after opening, SD-1 agreed to a joint monitoring and notification
program with GCWW. The program includes notification in the event of significant plant and
pump station upsets or bypasses.
Three other waste water treatment plants are located in Ohio within the ZOCC/ZOHC including:
Clermont County Ohio Nine Mile Creek waste water plant, Village of New Richmond waste water
plant, and the Village of Moscow’s waste water plant and/or combined sewer outlets (CSOs).
Consequently, GCWW and NKWD, with possible assistance from Ohio EPA, will structure a
similar voluntary notification program with these three utilities much like the program established
with SD-1.
In the event of an upset or large discharge of untreated sanitary waste to the receiving streams
and/or the Ohio River, GCWW and NKWD may elect to sample those streams for indications of
the water quality and/or implement additional treatment procedures if necessary. Sampling
locations will vary based on flow regimes in each of the receiving streams. To the extent possible,
GCWW and NKWD will collect flow velocity information for Twelvemile Creek and Ninemile
Creek to develop time-of-travel estimates from the SD-1 and Clermont County treatment plants.
Alternate Water Sources
As previously stated, GCWW and NKWD store raw or partially treated water in off-river
reservoirs. These reservoirs give each utility flexibility in determining specific response strategies
including the ability to continue to operate the plants and provide water to our customers even
though raw water pumping may be suspended while a plume is present near the intakes.
In addition to the off-river storage, both GCWW and NKWD maintain alternate water sources.
GCWW owns and operates the Charles M. Bolton Water Treatment plant which is located in
Fairfield, Ohio and draws water from the Great Miami River Buried Valley Aquifer, a source that
is hydraulically separate from the Ohio River. The Bolton plant is rated for a maximum of 40
MGD and while this will not replace the full quantity of water from RMTP, it is enough to
significantly extend the period raw water pumping can be suspended and does, however, meet
State-mandated minimum water quantities.
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 58
Similarly, the NKWD operates a treatment plant on the Licking River in Taylor Mill, Kentucky.
Much like GCWW, the Licking River plant cannot fully replace the water from the Ft. Thomas
plant but it will significantly extend the period the Ft Thomas plant can stop pumping raw water.
The Licking River is in direct hydraulic connection with the Ohio River and it is possible for
contaminants to flow back up the Licking. NKWD monitors water quality in the Licking River
during a spill to ensure that contaminant plumes are not flowing upstream.
For both GCWW and NKWD, the alternate water sources are sufficient to meet the minimum
regulatory quantity required by either Ohio EPA or KDOW. Both GCWW and NKWD have taken
future growth into account in their long-term planning and the capacities of RMTP and the Fort
Thomas plant have sufficient excess capacity to cover that projected growth. A discussion of the
financial mechanisms are discussed in other documents.
Spill Response Training
Example spill scenarios will be used to periodically train water works personnel on the proper spill
response actions. Hypothetical release scenarios may be developed for selected sites within the
ZOCC based on the information in the PCSI and general knowledge of the upstream watershed.
The results of the desktop exercises will be stored and maintained as reference material in the event
of an actual spill. The roles of emergency responders will also be evaluated as will various
mitigation strategies, such as booming around the intakes. The desktop exercises will also be used
to identify and rectify gaps in the necessary contact information.
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 59
8.0 Monitoring
Monitoring land use, industrial practices and water quality will be a part of the source water
protection program. The purpose of the monitoring is to identify conditions that could lead to
contaminants entering the river, establish baseline water quality, monitor for changes in baseline
water quality, and monitoring for spills and other releases.
Watershed Surveillance
At least once per quarter a source water protection representative will drive through the ZOCC to
observe conditions of the Ohio River and major tributaries for indications of changes to the water
quality. Likewise, the source water protection representative will observe some of the larger
potential contaminant sources or pollution control devices for indications of changes or for signs
of spills or releases. The quarterly reconnaissance will be limited to fence-line observations;
quarterly onsite visits are not anticipated. By conducting quarterly drive-thru reconnaissance,
GCWW and NKWD will gain additional insight into the land uses and industrial practices
throughout the ZOCC. Additionally, these overviews may provide insights into temporal changes
in and around the tributaries in the ZOCC such as increases in turbidity, large-scale erosion, site
clearing and construction, etc. Observations made during the watershed surveillance will be
recorded on a field forms.
ODS Monitoring
As previously described, ORSANCO, in cooperation with water utilities, operates the ODS
system. As part of this monitoring program, samples are collected at a frequency of at least one
sample per day, although several stations collect samples at a higher frequency. Samples are
analyzed for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) using either a gas chromatograph/mass
spectrometer (GCMS), on-line gas chromatograph, or flame ionization detectors (FID).
GCWW is designated as one of the 17 ODS monitoring locations described above. In addition to
the daily analysis for VOCs using GC/MS, additional samples are also automatically collected
every two hours and screened for VOCs using a FID. If the FID shows a detection, a confirmation
sample will be run on the GC/MS to identify the compound(s) and quantify the concentration.
Utility Raw/Source Water Monitoring
To address non-VOC water quality concerns, both NKWD and GCWW have advanced in-house
laboratory capabilities. These capabilities may be utilized for both routine water quality
monitoring as well as during spill events to track contaminant plumes. GCWW samples raw water
daily for turbidity and pH; weekly for alkalinity and hardness, microbiological constituents,
chlorophyll, algae, total organic carbon, odor; monthly for phosphate, ammonia, nitrate, bromide,
Source Water Protection Plan
Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 60
chloride, sulfate, perchlorate, particle counts, UV254, MIB (an algal breakdown product); annually
for pesticides/herbicides, synthetic organic compounds, radiological compounds and selected
metals. This sampling plan is reviewed periodically and may change based on river conditions or
other circumstances. The NKWD also has a similar raw water monitoring program.
GCWW currently monitors for algal toxins in the source water in accordance with guidance and
regulations issued by the Ohio EPA. The sampling frequency for algal toxins may vary but will,
at a minimum, meet the Ohio EPA requirements. Likewise, NKWD currently monitors for algal
toxins on a bi-weekly basis. NKWD is subject to KDOW regulation and will, at a minimum,
monitor the source water in accordance with evolving state regulations.
GCWW currently monitors for cryptosporidium, Giardia lamblia, total coliform, and
Escherichia coli in Twelvemile Creek in Kentucky and upstream on the Ohio River on a
quarterly basis and periodically from Ninemile Creek in Ohio. This monitoring program is
related to two large waste water treatment plants located in the ZOCC/ZOHC. Monitoring
frequency will be re-evaluated periodically and may be adjusted based on previous results.
Samples may also be collected from tributaries in the ZOCC for nutrient or other water quality
parameters to identify water quality impacts in small sub-basins. If appropriate, GCWW/NKWD
will coordinate with active watershed groups as needed. A summary of the GCWW monitoring
plan is provided in Table 4.
Additional monitoring may be conducted as conditions require.

9.0 Implementation
As previously indicated, this Plan will result in an ongoing source water protection program and a
general implementation schedule for the first three years of the program is included in Appendix
E. The Source Water Protection Plan will be review and revised at least every 6 years. The spill
response plans will be updated more frequently to ensure the contact information contained therein
remains updated. The sampling plan will be modified as needed based on changes to land use,
new or altered industrial facilities or discharges, emerging contaminants, etc.
The program will be jointly administered by GCWW and NKWD. GCWW currently employs a
Source Water Protection Manager who is responsible for implementing this program and reporting
progress to the planning committee. It is anticipated that GCWW and NKWD will provide
resources as needed to properly execute the sampling and analysis tasks. Water quality analyses
will be a combination of in-house analysis by either GCWW or NKWD or through a contract
laboratory.
Evaluating Effectiveness
The Planning Committee will retain the responsibility for evaluating the effectiveness of the
Source Water Protection Program. It is anticipated that the planning committee will transition into
a management body and will continue to meet at least quarterly to track progress on individual
initiatives and tasks.
The effectiveness will be measured relative to the program goals described in Section 1 of the plan.
Furthermore, the effectiveness will be measured based on the participation levels of upstream
industries in the source water recognition program, the completeness of the PCSI, continued
cooperation and collaboration between GCWW and NKWD, timeliness of spill notification, and
the number and quality of outreach opportunities and targeted presentations. Likewise, the
program will be successful if periodic contact with upstream industries is maintained.
Effectiveness of Basin-wide Source Water Protection Efforts
ORSANCO is in a unique position to measure the effectiveness of its efforts, because every year
there are hundreds of spills on the Ohio River. Whenever its notification efforts enable a utility to
avoid drawing contamination into a drinking water intake, both ORSANCO and the affected
communities have scored a source water protection success. ORSANCO annual reports
documenting the year’s spill events are available at:
http://www.orsanco.org/rivinfo/pubs/orsa.asp.

Greater Cincinnati Water Works and Northern Kentucky Water District Page 63
Annual Reporting
A report summarizing the previous year’s source water protection activities will be prepared by
annually. The content of the annual report will be determined by the Planning Committee but will
likely include: changes to the PCSI (new sites, removal of sites, changes in industrial practices,
etc.), changes to the prioritization schemes, review of site meetings, document all outreach
activities, spill reports, monitoring results, etc.
