Abstract
The Association of Monterey Bay Area Governments (AMBAG) has been designated as the areawide waste-treatment-management planning agency for the Monterey Bay region under Sec. 208 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act Amendments of 1972 (Public Law 92-500). Sec. 208 establishes the authority and responsibility of the designated local agency to investigate water-quality problems and plan solutions to them.
In developing a waste-management program all aspects of water resources must be evaluated. AMBAG's 208 work plan established an initial problem assessment phase designed to serve as the basis for subsequent 208 program tasks. AMBAG requested that the U.S. Geological Survey make that portion of the initial assessment that was concerned with ground water. This report presents the findings of the assessment.
