North Post Wells 24, 25, 27, 28, 29, 30 Prepared for Fort McCoy, North Post OTM Community Public Water System

1 Introduction Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (WDNR) and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) rules require that new community wells in Wisconsin have a WDNR-approved Wellhead Protection Plan (WHPP). A WHPP was originally prepared for all well fields for Fort McCoy in 1994 with several amendments occurring over recent years. This plan specifically updates the WHPP for the Fort McCoy North Post Wells.

The purpose of a WHPP is to minimize the risk of contamination of public groundwater supplies by assessing and managing activities in the land areas around each well. This WHPP details the type of groundwater supply sources, identifies the recharge areas and groundwater flow direction, and outlines a Wellhead Protection Area (WHPA) for the Fort McCoy North Post Wells in Monroe County, Wisconsin.

Requirements for WHPPs are defined by Wisconsin Administrative Code § NR 811.12(6).

WHPPs shall include:

• Identification of zone of influence

• Identification of recharge area

• Identification of groundwater flow direction

• Identification and assessment of potential contamination sources

• Establishment of a wellhead protection area (WHPA)

• Public education program for wellhead protection

• Water conservation program

• Contingency plan

• Management plan

2 Background

2.1 Water System Overview

The Fort McCoy water systems provide service to approximately 2,500 year-round customers including armed forces service members, dependents, civilians, and contract employees.

2.2

2.3

At Fort McCoy, there are three independent and unconnected potable water supply and distribution systems that are owned by the Federal Government and managed by Water and Wastewater Branch Chief , O&M Division, Directorate of Public Works. One of these water supplies is the “North Post” Water System with a well field including Well Nos. 24, 25, 27, 28, 29 and 30. The system is classified as Other than Municipal (OTM), with Public Water System Identification Number (PWSID) 64203029.

The North Post Water System provides water to the main cantonment area, and contains six potable water wells (24, 25, 27, 28, 29, 30) located within or just outside of the main cantonment area. There are eight additional wells located within the various ranges and training areas. The potable water wells range from a depth of 202 to 250 feet below the ground surface. The raw water is pumped to the water treatment plant (WTP) via SCADA controlled signals. Treatment includes pH adjustment utilizing caustic soda solution and disinfection with sodium hypochlorite solution. The water is pumped to the one-million-gallon above ground High Reservoir. Well No. 24 has a variable frequency drive which allows disinfected water to be pumped directly into the distribution system, bypassing the High Reservoir during emergency or maintenance conditions.

Local Setting The North Post wells are located within an approximately 52 acre area of irregular boundaries, with a longest distance between wells of just over one-half mile. Well No. 24 is within the fenced cantonment area, and the remaining wells are outside of the fenced cantonment area. All property in the area of the wells is owned by Fort McCoy. The North Post wellfield is depicted on Figure 1.

Fort McCoy is located in the Wisconsin Driftless Section of the Central Lowland Physiographic Province. The subject area is characterized by dissected plateaus into low lying flat areas with relief ranging from approximately 815 to 1450 feet mean sea level (MSL) or 248 to 440 meters MSL. The topography consists of flat, open areas to the west and south and hilly, wooded areas to the east and north. The grade generally falls toward the Tributary of Tarr Creek located east of all of the North Post wells. Tarr Creek runs from east to west, south of all of the North Post wells, toward the La Crosse River. (USACE, 1982 and 283D Engineer Detachment, 1979)

Fort McCoy lies within the Upper La Crosse Watershed of the Trempealeau-Black River Basin with the La Crosse River and its tributaries draining the majority of the Installation. The La Crosse River is a large perennial stream which meanders southwestward within a wide valley eventually discharging to the Mississippi River about 30 miles southwest of Fort McCoy.

Local Geology The local geology of the North Post Wells was derived from the well logs and prior investigations.

An extensive evaluation of the local geology was presented in the original WHPP (Rust, 1994).

For purposes of this WHPP, information obtained since 1994 are incorporated as appropriate.

The rocks and soils in the vicinity of Fort McCoy range in age from Precambrian basement rocks to recent alluvial deposits. The bedrock from oldest to youngest, includes Precambrian crystalline rocks, Cambrian sandstones, and Early Ordovician carbonate rocks. Weathered Precambrian granite was encountered at approximately 360 feet below ground surface in the vicinity of the North Post Wellfield. The sandstone unit is the Cambrian-age Wonewoc-Eau Claire-Mt. Simon Formations that can range in thickness from 200 to 400 feet. Ordovician rocks overlie the

2.4

Cambrian strata and are present only on the highest ridges at Fort McCoy. The unconsolidated alluvial deposits consist primarily of sand with some silt, clay and gravel derived from the weathering of sandstone bedrock. The alluvial deposits occur as valley fill above the sandstone.

Regionally, the thickness of unconsolidated deposits is estimated to range from 0 to 120 feet with the alluvium thickness generally increasing toward the La Crosse River and other stream valleys.

No apparent confining units are present in the North Post area and the Cambrian sandstone aquifer appears to be continuous and interconnected in this area. Shales are more common and occur with interbedded sandstones below the 320 foot depth, with the section between 320 and 375 feet considered non prospective. The detail provided on well logs varies, but all generally show approximately 6 to 14 feet of alluvial sand overlying sandstone.

Local Hydrogeology As described above, the North Post Wells are located within the Upper La Crosse Watershed as described by the Wisconsin DNR. In general water through the watershed flows to the southwest.

Within the project area defined by the area surrounding the North Post Wells there is the Squaw River and Tarr Creek. The rivers are approximately 7-12 feet wide with flow to the south west where they drain to the La Crosse River (Rust, 1994).

The water table in the area of the North Post Wells is encountered at depths less than 30 feet below grade and is likely present in the Wonewoc Formation sandstone. The Cambrian sandstone aquifer consists of both the Wonewoc and Mt. Simon Formations, and is at least 220 feet in thickness. Comparison of pumping levels and drawdowns in North Post wells suggests that silty sandstone intervals in the Cambrian sandstone aquifer can lower specific capacities.

Representative hydraulic parameters were obtained from a number of resources including the original WHPP (Rust, 1994), Engineering Report (SEH, January 31, 2014), and well installation activities completed since 1994.

The most extensive pump tests were conducted on the source water aquifer and analyzed as part of the original WHPP (Rust, 1994). Hydraulic Conductivity (K) values ranged from 1.9X10-2 cm/sec to 4.2x10-2 cm/sec (53.9 to 119 ft/day). These values coincide within generally accepted hydraulic conductivity ranges for a sandstone aquifer. Hydraulic conductivity values presented in Rust (1994) for slug tests are similar to those of the pump test results but appear to reflect more local conditions as opposed to the aquifer as a whole. Additionally, pumping tests have been conducted on North Post wells since the time of the detailed Wellhead Protection Study. Values from these pumping tests are within the same magnitude as those documented in the 1994 detailed Wellhead Protection Study. However, due to limited information about the methodology of these tests, extrapolation of these results are not representative for the overall sandstone aquifer. Pumping test results are presented in Appendix C. Porosity of the Sandstone Aquifer is assumed to be 0.2 based on data prepared by the Wisconsin Geological Survey for Sandstone (ranges 0.11 to 0.30). Aquifer Specific Storage was found to be .000000302 m-1 and was determined from a Well Recovery Test presented in a recovery test preformed and reported on 06/13/13 for North Post Well 25 (SEH, January 31, 2014).

Groundwater flow direction is southwest as shown on the Wisconsin Geologic and Natural History Survey, Groundwater Elevation Map depicted on Figure 2 (Lippelt, 1981).

3 Method Used to Delineate the Wellhead Protection Area

3.1 Plan Development

Regulations established by the WDNR and USEPA require that new community wells in Wisconsin have a WDNR-approved WHPP. The following sections describe the methodologies used to delineate the Zone of Influence (ZOI), the Zone of Contribution (ZOC) and establish a Wellhead Protection Area (WHPA). Wisconsin’s Wellhead Protection rules require at a minimum that a WHPA use a minimum 5 year time of travel for groundwater or, at a minimum, a 1,200 foot radius around each well. Conservatively, Fort McCoy has elected to base its WHPA on a 15 year time of travel.

A numerical groundwater model was constructed to simulate the interaction of Fort McCoy’s North Post supply Wells within the surficial and groundwater system. This numerical model utilizes the United States Geologic Survey’s (USGS) modular three-dimensional groundwater flow (MODFLOW) model developed by McDonald and Harbaugh (1988) and is used to simulate groundwater flow to pumping wells. The post processing software Groundwater Vista developed by Environmental Simulations Incorporated was used to process and export USGS Modflow files.

The model for this report was developed to simulate hydraulic head distribution under long-term (steady-state) pumping conditions of the six North Post wells. MODPATH (Polluck, 1989) was used to delineate groundwater flow paths and areas contributing water (ZOC) to the pumping wells. Reverse particle tracking method was used along with 50 particles placed in cells directly adjacent to the North Post Wells. Reverse particle tracking traces the up-gradient flow paths for each particle for the time period specified. These particle paths show the time of travel and recharge areas modeled to supply the North Post Wellfield. For this report 5, 10 and 15 year time of travel particle plots are shown.

Figure 5 shows the model area and finite difference grid used for the project area. The model area extends around part of the Upper La Crosse Watershed and fully incorporates the North Post wellfield. The model grid includes 26,300 cells, 183 columns, and 144 rows. Grid spacing ranged from a few meters around the wellfield to 100 meter grid sizes near the boundary of the model. The model domain consists of a single layer to represent the sandy unconsolidated sediment and the underlying sandstone aquifer.

Information presented in previous chapters of this report on regional hydrogeology and geology discussed above were used to construct the model and are discussed below.

3.2 Assumptions and Boundary Conditions

The primary assumption for this model was that the water table and source water aquifer are hydrologically connected and for the sake of this model may be modeled as a single hydrologic unit. This assumption is supported by geologic well logs, regional pumping tests, and previous reports for the Fort McCoy wellfields. The unconsolidated sediment is only about a 10 foot thick layer overlying a thicker sandstone unit. The North Post wells have an open-hole length of approximately 200 feet and are open to the sandstone aquifer. Because the upper unconsolidated thickness is insignificant and there are no significant surficial confining layers, the model constructed a single layer to represent surficial sediment down to the known open-hole intervals of the North Post Wells. This single layer model representing the source water aquifer for the North Post Wells was set to a constant thickness of 200 feet to better represent aquifer transmissivity based upon the open-hole interval.

The model domain for the North Post wellfield was chosen to be contained within a portion of the Upper La Crosse Watershed. Boundary conditions within this domain were set to coincide with approximate hydraulic boundaries of the local drainage basin. The eastern boundary of the model corresponds to the watershed divide. Precipitation in this area contributes to the southern and western boundaries of the groundwater model. These are respectively the Skauw River and Tarr Creek. These were modeled with the MODFLOW River package and head values were adjusted to correspond to the surface elevation, stream thickness, and regional water table head elevations. Initial heads for the model were derived from the Wisconsin Geologic and Natural History Survey, Groundwater Elevation Map and further used to calibrate model results. The model top elevation was set based upon USGS digital elevation models for Wisconsin. As mentioned above, the base of the model was set at 200 feet where there is not expected to be an upward hydraulic gradient into the North Post wellfield.

Consistent with the original WHPP (Rust, 1994), recharge was based upon the assumption that 50% of precipitation after evapotranspiration enters as recharge for the model. Precipitation input of 30.5 inches per year was calculated from the average rainfall since 2000 from NOAA. Potential Evapotranspiration was estimated at 27 inches per year based on the Thornthwaite method.

Initial hydraulic head was based upon water table elevations from a survey completed by the Wisconsin Geologic and Natural History Survey, Groundwater Elevation Map as depicted on Figure 2 (Lippelt, 1981). Hydraulic conductivity values were based upon aquifer testing completed by Rust in 1994. The 24-hour pump test result found that hydraulic conductivity of the Sandstone Aquifer range from 52.48 ft/day to 121.36 ft/day. These values fall within typical ranges for a sandstone aquifer; an average of these values were used to represent Layer 1.

3.3 Identification of Zone of Influence

NR 811.12 (6) (b)

The ZOI is calculated based on Wisconsin Administrative Code NR 811 requirements of 30 days continuous pumping at the anticipated final pumping rate and assuming 1 foot of drawdown at the limits of the ZOI. The ZOI for each well was calculated using aquifer properties determined from pumping test data from Well Nos. 27, 28, and 29. The radius for the ZOI was calculated using the Theis Well Function equation presented in the text Groundwater and Wells, Third Edition.

Transmissivity values used for this calculation ranged between 25344.28 to 44176.49 ft2/day and were determined from test pumping data for Well Nos. 27, 28, and 29; an average value was used for the remaining wells where test pumping data was not available. Individual transmissivity values were chosen to be used to better represent localized conditions for each well.

Transmissivity Test pumping data is included in Appendix C. The ZOI for each well is depicted in Figure 3. Calculations for the ZOI are presented in Appendix B.

3.4 Identification of Recharge Area

NR 811.12 (6) (c)

The recharge area is calculated using the Uniform Flow Equation. The side gradient and down gradient extent of the recharge areas for each well is listed in the table below. The up gradient portion of the Recharge Area extends approximately 20,000 feet to the north-east adjoining to the watershed’s groundwater divide (Lippelt, 1981). Calculations are included in Appendix B.

Transmissivity values for the recharge area calculation were established in Chapter 3.3. The Recharge Areas are depicted in Figure 4.

4 Establishment of a Wellhead Protection Area NR 811.12 (6) (e)

Based upon Wisconsin Rule NR 811.12 (6) (e) the Wellhead Protection Area (WHPA) must be based on, at a minimum, the portion of the recharge area equivalent to a 5-year time of travel to each well or a minimum a 1,200 foot radius around each well. Conservatively, Fort McCoy has applied a 15-year travel time to establish the WHPA plus where the 1,200 foot minimum radius supersedes the time of travel plots. The groundwater model discussed in previous sections of this report was used to establish the 15-year time of travel plots for this Wellhead Protection Area as shown in Figure 5. The 15-year travel paths extend up-gradient 9,000 feet (north-east).

Groundwater from the model does not depict pathways emanating from downgradient sources, south of the North Post Wellfield, the boundary for the WHPA was established based upon the 1,200 foot minimum radius. The resulting WHPA is shown on Figure 6.

5 Identification and Assessment of Potential Contamination Sources NR 811.12 (6) (d)

A review of potential contaminant sources was conducted by searching WDNR, Wisconsin Department of Safety and Professional Services, and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) databases, and reviewing the Wisconsin DNR Bureau of Remediation and Redevelopment website. During the well site investigation process, all sites were also evaluated for separation from potential contaminant sources identified in Wis. Adm. Code Chapter NR 811.

Potential contaminant sources within one-half mile of the well location are identified in the Public Water Supply Potential Contaminant Use Inventory Form found in Appendix D and are depicted in Figure 7. Outside of the half mile radius, there does not appear to be any additional potential contaminant sources throughout the remainder of the delineated recharge area. The results are summarized in the table above, which includes an assessment of the potential for the contamination sources to impact the wells.

6 Management Plan and Public Education Program NR 811.12 (6) (f)

The WHPA delineated by this report is located primarily on property of Fort McCoy, with portions of the WHPA both within and outside of the fenced area. The WHPA farthest to the east falls on private property owned by three private parties. Fort McCoy can restrict access and land use of the land that is under the jurisdiction of Fort McCoy. The Wellhead Protection Area and potential contaminant sources will be managed by the Fort McCoy Public Works. The Wellhead Protection Plan will be available to the public at the Public Works Department. If future contaminant sources are found to be impacting the source water, aquifer management strategies for the Wellhead Protection Area should be revised to better address any such need.

Private landowners within the WHPA will be notified of the WHPA.

7 Water Conservation Program NR 811.12 (6) (g)

A Water Conservation Plan for Fort McCoy has been developed, with various programs ongoing or with implementation in progress. The plan is included in Appendix E. These programs include:

• Routine Inspections

• Water Use Surveys

• Water Use Monitoring

• Plumbing Retrofits

• Annual Report Distribution

• Water Recirculating (vehicle washing)

The Water Conservation Plan is periodically reviewed and updated.

8 Contingency Plan NR 811.12 (6) (h)

Fort McCoy maintains a Water System Emergency Response Plan. The plan includes an overview of the water system, alternative water sources, a chain of command, communication procedures, and other vital information to facilitate an organized response to various issues that may occur with the water system. This document should be updated periodically and used as a guide during any water system emergency.

The North Post water supply contingency plan for replacing supply lost if a well should become contaminated includes several components:

1. There is no adjacent public water system for interconnection. Water can be trucked from the nearby Fort McCoy public water facilities, and bottled water and packaged ice sources are listed in the plan.

2. The South Post relies on two wells to supply water for the distribution system. If one wellfield becomes unusable due to contamination, it is reasonable to assume that the other wellfield will still be usable.

3. If the North Post Wells tests positive for bacterial contamination, permanent chlorination equipment is provided at the pump house.

Key coordinators and contacts for implementing the contingency plan are listed below:

8 Contingency Plan
1. There is no adjacent public water system for interconnection. Water can be trucked from the nearby Fort McCoy public water facilities.
2. The South Post relies on two wells to supply water for the distribution system. If one well becomes unusable due to contamination, it is reasonable to assume that the other well will still be usable.
3. If the North Post Wells tests positive for bacterial contamination, permanent chlorination equipment is provided at the pump house.
9 Management Plan
9.1 Wellhead Protection Area
9.2 Separation Distances
4. Ten feet between a well and an emergency or standby power system that is operated by the same facility which operates the well and that has a double wall above ground storage tank with continuous electronic interstitial leakage monitoring.
5. Fifty feet between a well and a storm sewer main or a sanitary sewer main where the sanitary sewer main is constructed of water main class materials and joints.
6. Two hundred feet between a well and any sanitary sewer main not constructed of water main class materials, sanitary manhole, lift station, one or 2 family residential heating fuel oil underground storage tank or above ground storage tank or POWTS t...
7. Three hundred feet between a well and any farm underground storage tank system or other underground storage tank system with double wall and with electronic interstitial monitoring for the system, which means the tank and any piping connected to it.
8. Four hundred feet between a well and a POWTS dispersal component with a design capacity of less than 12,000 gallons per day, a cemetery or a storm water retention or detention pond.
9. Six hundred feet between a well and any farm underground storage tank system or other underground storage tank system with double wall and with electronic interstitial monitoring for the system, which means the tank and any piping connected to it; ...
10. One thousand feet between a well and land application of municipal, commercial, or industrial waste; the boundaries of a landspreading facility for spreading of petroleum-contaminated soil regulated under ch. NR 718 while that facility is in opera...
11. Twelve hundred feet between a well and any solid waste storage, transportation, transfer, incineration, air curtain destructor, processing, wood burning, one time disposal or small demolition facility; sanitary landfill; any property with residual...
