ISSUE: The City of Springfield adopted a Drinking Water Protection (DWP) Plan in 1999 that
addressed only groundwater. At that time, Springfield took all of its drinking water from wells.
Since then, the Willamette well field was determined to be under the direct influence of surface
water, and Springfield Utility Board (SUB) will soon be using water taken from the Middle Fork
Willamette River. The proposed DWP Plan Addendum (2002) incorporates a surface water
management area as required by Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ). A surface water
element of the DWP Plan is also required by Department of Land Conservation and
Development (DLCD) Goal 5 protection requirement and Metro Plan Periodic Review Work
Task,
TO:
Springfield Planning Commission
FROM:
Sarah Summers ~
SUBJECT:
DWP Addendum (2002)
DISCUSSION: The DWP Plan sets City policies for the protection of its drinking water. The
proposed Addendum does not make any changes to the original DWP Plan which stands as
adopted, but adds surface water protection as required by DEQ and DLCD, All certified plans
are evaluated by DEQ at approximate 5-year'intervals.-'DEQ's recertification of the DWP Plan
will be based on an evaluation of the progress made toward risk reduction and an evaluation of
any new elements added to the Plan, Since the Willamette well field has been determined to be ,
under direct influence of surface water and SUB will be taking water directly from the Middle
Fork, Springfield is required by DEQ, DLCD and the Metro Plan Periodic Review Work Task to
add surface water protection as part of the overall DWP Plan,
The Addendum is a policy document that follows the format of the Plan, It has been
written based on the results from a, Potential Contaminant Source Inventory done by SUB which
meets the Oregon Department of Human Resources (ODHR) requirement to assess major
potential contaminant sources that could impact pubic drinking water. ODHR requires treatment
for organisms over and above the requirements for groundwater sources, SUB is constructing a
slow sand filter system within the Willamette well field which will filter both groundwater and
surface water intake from the Middle Fork, The Addendum includes a delineated management'
area per DEQ for surface water of the Middle Fork Willamette Watershed, The area is 1,000 feet
from the waterline of the Middle Fork and its perennial tributaries for a distance of approximately
28 miles upstream (8 hours) from the SUB intake at the Willamette well field, All of the
management area is outside the boundary of Springfield's UGB and will be a co-operative effort
between SUB, Lane County, the Middle Fork Willamette Watershed Council and other
organizations and governments, .
RECOMMENDATION: Adoption of the Addendum (2002) by Resolution
ACTION REQUESTED: Recommend adoption of the Addendum to the City Council.

INTRODUCTION
Springfield Utility Board (SUB) draws water from wells located adjacent to the Middle Fork of
the Willamette River (Middle Fork), In 1999, the Oregon Health Depanment (OHD) determined
that some of these wells were directly under the influence of surface water. OHD requirements
for public drinking water systems found to be under the direct influence of surface water require
treatment for organisms over..and above the requirements for groundwater sources alone,
To help meet these requirements, SUB conducted research and pilot studies to help determine a
method of treatment that is both acceptable to regulatory agencies and cost-effective to construct
and operate, Based on the results, SUB is constructing a slow sand filter system within the
Willamette Wellfield,
The Willamette Wellfield is located in Lane County, outside the urban boundaries of Springfield.
Both groundwater and surface water from an intake on the Middle Fork \Villamette River will be
filtered through this system a.~d used as drinking water. Additional treatment will include ultra
violet (UV) light and chlorination,
.;
The intake for the slow sand filter system is at the approximate 189 mile marker on the Middle
Fork, Based on the average high flow rate of 7,000 cubic feet per second'provided by the U,S,
Geological Survey (USGS), water in the Middle Fork travels 3.5 miles per hour over this reach,
This places the ma,imum estimated eight-hour time of travel upstream from the intake at about
the 217 mile marker (28 miles) or approximately the east end of Lookout Point Reservoir (Travel
ROles o(Walerfor Selecred Srreams inlhe Willamerre River Basin, Oregon by David Harris,
USGS - Hydrologic Jnvesrigarions Arias, HA273, 1968) (see maps, Appendix A),
PURPOSE
This inventory is part of the permit application for construction of a slow sand filter facility that
will serve the city of Springfield, Oregon, It meets the OHD requirement to assess major
potential contaminant sources that could impact public drinking water.
Data collected for this document will be used in developing a Springfield Drinking Water
Protection Plan to update the existing delineations for the Willamette Well field adopted by
Springfield on May 15, 2000, It will also be used in making day-to-day decisions on water
quality issues such as sample collection and monitoring, In the .process of data collection, a line
of communication has been established that is expected to form the basis of inter-agency
cooperative agreements between Springfield, Lane County, the Cities of Dexter and LowelL
Army Corp of Engineers, US Forest Se"ice, Middle Fork \Villamette Watershed CounciL and
others who routine], use water from the Middle Fork Willamette,

BACKGROUND
~'... 0" ,. .
:.) . t
';'\
The population of Lane County and Springfield has grOVvTI significantly over the last decade,
Lane County census figures indicate a population grO\vth of 1 2.44 percent (282,912 to 318, 1 00)
for the decade betVv'een 1 990 and 2000. The population of Springfield grew by 20,2) percent
(44,664 to 53,700) during this same period (Barry Edmonston, Director. Population Research'
Center - Portland State University, Press release, Oregon's Population Increases by More Than
One-half Million in the] 990s, December 1 3,2000), Drawing surface water from the Middle
Fork will supplement existing groundwater resources supplied to the city by SUB,
SOURCE WATER
The Middle Fork of the \Villamene River has its source in the Cascade Mountains and flows
northwest down a steep gradient to the Willamene Valley, Perennial tributaries within the eight-
hour time of travel to the V/illamene Wellfield include The Springfield Mill Race, Pudding
Creek, Lost Creek, Alder Creek, and Ranlesnake Creek that enter the Middle Fork from the
south, Wallace Creek, Hills Creek, Fall Creek, and an unnamed creek enter the Middle Fork
from the north, Linle Fall Creek joins Fall Creek belowlallCreek Dam, Winberry Creek
discharges to Fall Creek Reservoir and Goodman Creek, ,Schiieitzer Creek, Minnow Creek, and
Duval Creek discharge to Lookout Point Reservoir. Several smaller creeks identified as
perennial streams on USGS topographical maps also discharge to the river and the reservoirs,
Both rainwater and snoVvmelt contribute to surface water supplies, The High Cascades store
water in the form of snow that is released during the summer. This snoVvmelt helps keep the
flow relatively consistent in the Middle Fork (-2,000cfs - year round) and Fall Creek (800-
3,000 cfs - rainy season) (Department of Geography, UniversiTY of Oregon, Arias of Lane
Coum)', 1999).

Groundwater is most plentiful in areas with alluvial deposits and porous lava materials, Alluvial
deposits from the mouth of the Middle Fork to Dexter Dam store lame ouantities of Qroundwater.

SUB current];' has 31 wells located throughout the city, These wells draw] 00 percent of the
public water supply for the city of Springfield from the Springfield aquifer. Groundwater also

Pilot Studies
Between May, :2000 and May, 2001, Springfield Utility Board conducted pilot studies to
determine the treatability of water dra\nl from wells in the Willamene Wellfield and surface
water from the Middle F ark Willamene River. Based on results of these and previous studies,
water from the Middle Fork was determined to be very treatable, Findings of temperature and
turbidities obtained during these studies indicated that these parameters would not be limiting to
the slow sand treatmem process and that treatment can be applied cost effectively, Sampling
results also indicated low bacteria levels and no organic or inorganic compounds that would
adversely impact the slow sand treatmem process,
Watershed Partners
The Middle Fork Watershed CounciL DEQ, U,S, Forest Service, Oregon Department ofFish and
Wildlife: Oregon Department of Agriculture (ODA), and otheragencies and organizations are in
the process of assessing water quality and watershed conditions in the management area to gain
more detailed information on existing water quality and opportunities for improvement. These
agencies are considered imponant watershed partners in monitoring and maintaining water
quality in the Middle Fork \Villamene River.
General Impairments
"There were many potemial causes for water quality problems identified in'the Middle Fork
~ateished, These include discharges from waste water treatment plants, legal "iind illegal waste
dump sites, runoff from forest. agriculturaL and private residential lands, failin'g septic systems,
seasonal flow reductions, recreation, fish hatcheries, and historic activities such as mining
(primarily sand and gravel), and removal or degradation of riparian vegetation,
Erosion from riparian areas (stream banks), rerouting of runoff via road building, construction,
and land surfacing such as parking areas can lead to excessive erosion or pollutanttranspon,
Increased heat inpUl due to removal of vegetation, reduction in flow (seasonal), changes in
channel shape"and floodplain alteration are also potential sources of water quality impairment,
303! d) ListinQ
Section 303(d) of the Clean Wafer ACf requires states to monitor water quality and develop
programs to improve water quality where standards are not met Within the Middle Fork
Management Area, several segments of the main stream and its tributaries have been identified
by the Oregon Depanmem of Environmemal Quality (DEQ) as "water quality limited" for
temperature and sedimentation, The Middle Fork was placed on the 303(d) list of water quality
limited water bodies in 1998,
Under Senate Bill 1010, the Southern \Villamene Valley Local Advisory Comminee, with
assistance from the East Lane Soil and \Vater Conservation District and the Oregon Depanment
of Agriculture, has developed a draft, \Vater Quality Area Management Plan for reducing
agricultural acti\ities that comribute to pollution in the Middle Fork Willamene River !SWLAC.

Conditions and factors leading to 303(d) listing
SENSITIVE AREAS,
Sensitive' areas are those with a high potential to impact streams due to proximity or
vulnerability, Evaluations for high soil erosion potentiaL high permeability soils, and high
runoff potential within these areas are based on information listed in the D,S, Depanment of
Agriculture, Soil Sun>ey of Lane Counry, Oregon, ] 987. They can also be calculated using the
] :24,000 SSDRGO (Soil Swyey Geographic Database) data sets from the ,Narural Resources
Consen'Glion Sen'ice.
Setbacks
A setback of 1 ,000 feet from, the centerline of the intake stream and all perennial tributaries has
been suggested bv the DEQ to identify those areas where there is a higher
risk of contamination from spills and other releases (see maps, Anachment A),
Soil Erosion Potential
High soil erosion potential is based on the effects of slope and soil erodibility (K-factor), Soils
classified as high are on > 30% slopes and have K-factors >0,25, Though small areas of soil
meeting these parameters were noted throughout the setback. they are more often found in the
upper regions of the watershed, '
High Permeability Soils
Areas within the setback identified as having high permeability soils are of recent alluvial
deposits and have a high potential for groundwater recharge adjacent to streams, These soils are
more often found on the valley floor.
High Runoff Potential
Areas with a high runoff potentia] are typically clays with high water tables, or where an
impervious layer occurs at a shallow depth, These Class D soils have very slow infiltration rates,
POTENTL~L NON-POINT SOURCES OF POLLUTION
Non-point source pollution is the result of contaminants reaching the Water through seepage,
overland flow, or infiltration from an ill-defined source,
4
.,
Transponation
Runoff from highways and railways can contain oil, antifreeze, and other hazardous substances
that could enter the streams in runoff or in recharge to groundwater. Herbicide use in the
management of roadside vegetation could also enter streams and groundwater if applied prior to
a rainfall event
Jasper-Lowell Highway roughly parallels the Middle Fork from about tWo miles northwest of
Jasper to Pengra Bridge, From there, Pengra Road follows the north shore of the Middle Fork to
Dex'ter Dam where it meets the West Boundary Road that skirts the north shore of bath Dexter
and Lookout Point Reservoirs, Highway 58 parallels the Middle Fork from about one mile
northwest of Dexter and sbns the south shore of both Dexter and Lookout Point Reservoirs,
Little Fall Creek Road and Lost Creek Road parallel Little Fall Creek and Lost Creek
respectfully, crossing these creeks at several locations, Big Fall Creek Road, Peninsula Road,
and Winberry Creek Rcnd sbn the perimeter of Fall Creek Reservoir. .
Southern Pacific Railroad lines are located within 1,000 feet and parallel to the Middle Fork
from about three miles northwest of Jasper. The line splits about I y, miles south of that
community: a short spur follows ,he north side of Fall Creek for about I mile from the point
where it joins the Middle Fork, The main line crosses the river and continues south, southeast,
crossing Rattlesnake Creek and Lost Creek before swinging east parallel to the south shore of
Dexter and Lookout Reservoirs.
Agriculture
Most agriculture iI]. the Middle Fork watershed is located in the lower ponions of the Willamette
Valley, There is very little land in agricultural use above Dexter Reservoir.
Pesticides are applied to crops within the setback on an annual basis, usually in spring and
summer (Ross Penhallegon - OSU-Lane County Extension Service), Historically, nitrate and
soluble reactive phosphorus in streams of the Pudding Basin have increased during spring runoff
as the per cent of drainage area in agriculture increased (USGS, Summary of Major Issues and
Findings in (he r,i'illamerre Basin 1991-1995),
The dominant agricultural land use is pasture and hay Jand, Perennial crops such as blueberries,
strawberries, and filbens are found within the LOOO-feet setback of the Middle Fork, Container
nurseries and some field crops such as sugar beets, mint, and row-crops are found near Jasper.
LowelL and Pleasant HilL There are also some Christmas tree farms in that area,
The area has some livestock grazing, cow/calf operations, and ridinglboardin~ stables, Poullr\'
are raised in the area along \\neeler Road. south of the Middle Fork. and sm;lI numbers of .
horses and cattle are raised on numerous small farms and rural residential sites, ,",0 dairv farms
are located within these sensitive areas, '

construction, or.fires in these areas could contribute sediments to streams, Pesticide spraying
could also impact water quality,
Sand and Gravel/Mines/Quarries
USGS topographic maps, Lane County Land Use maps, and Soil Survey of Lane County,
Oregon maps indicate the location of 23 mines, quarries, gravel pits, and borrow pits (primarily
sand and gravel operations) within the 1,000 feet setback for the Middle Fork and its perennial
tributaries, Runoff containing loosened soils and sedimems from these operations could impact
water quality, No mining of metal ores has been identified in this area,
ParksIBoatinglRecreation S'ites
Recreation in the Middle Fork area relates closely to the scenic landscape, Lane County and
Oregon State parks at or near Dexter, Fall Creek, and Lookout Point Reservoirs provide
recreational opportunities in the summer months, Camping, hiking, horseback riding, water
skiing, fishing, hunting. and boating draw over 685,000 visitors to the area every year
(Willamelte Basin Reservoir Summaries, Oregon Water Resources Depanment), Boat ramps are
located on the shore of Fall Creek, Dexter, and Lookout Point Reservoirs, Boat ramps are also
located along the main stream of the Middle ,Fork at Jasper. Clearwater. and at Pengra Access
opposite the mouth of Lost Creek ([:SQS 1,24,000 Topographic Maps).
Riding stables and/or arenas were visually verified adjacent to the Middle Fork at Trent, on the
north side ofLinle FaIl Creek. on Brand-S Road near Jasper. and directly north of the WilJamene
WelJfield in Springfield,
Flood Control/Seasonal Drawdov>'D
Dams provide power generation, flood control in the winter. and flow-augmentation in the
summer. Water stored in reservoirs behind dams influence seasonal water availability and flow
patterns in the Middle Fork.
The Middle Fork Willamene Sub-basin has more flow controlling reservoirs than any other sub-
basin in the WiIlamene Basin, Though presenting a barrier to fish passage. the system of dams
and reser\'oirs maintains relatively high flows and low temperatures throughout the year, The
Middle Fork at Jasper is occasionally impacted by high levels of total phosphates and
biochemical oxygen demand during heavy precipitation, This indicates pollution from run-off,
which is present in any river system, This site is consistently excelJent throughoul the year

Lookout Point Reservoir on the Middle Fork is ranked first priority for summer draw down
(134200 acre-feet) with a full capacity of 455,800 acre-feet and summer storage of324,200
acre-feet,:Dexter Reservoir on the Middle Fork is a regulating reservoir below Lookout Point
Dam, Dexter Reservoir has a normal storage capacity of 22,200 acre feet. Dexter Dam has a
.. ,
maximum'discharge of 270,000 cfs,
Fall Creek Reservoir on Fall Creek is raked fifth priority for summer draw down (1'6,800 acre-
feet) v.~th a full capacity of 125,000 acre-feet and summer storage of 108.200 acre-feet. Fall
Creek Dam has a maximum discharge of 82,400 cfs, (Oregon Water Resources - web-site, Dam
Information ),
Due to extreme dry conditions, the :'\rmy Corps of Engineers has issued an advisory lener to
Willamene Valley Water Users dated May 15,2001. This advisory indicates that this is
expected to be one of the most extreme low-flow years on record for the Willamene River (64
percent of average between May and September) and that most of the projects in the Willamene
(watershed) will not refill this year, No single purpose will receive its full share of stored water
in 200 I.
Cemeteries
Small amounts of chemicals are used in preparation of human remains for burial. Wood
preservatives are used in caskets, If caskets are not vaulted, these chemicals can, over time,
leach into soils and groundwater. Pesticides and fertilizers used in the upkeep of cemeteries can
be washed into streams in runoff from storm evems or through excessive watering, Five
cemeteries andlor gravesites were identified on USGS Topographical Maps for areas within the
1,000 feet setback,
New Construction
New construction acti\'ities can result in soils being dislodged and sediment transported
dovmstream from a construction site, New construction within the 1,000 feet setback of the
Middle Fork and its perennial tributaries is permined by the City of Springfield within its urban
growth boundaries and by Lane Coumy in outlying and smaller urban areas,

Wildlife
. Wildlife in and adjacent to the Middle Fork includes steelhead, bull trouL and salmon in the
river, Western pond turtle, deer, small ganle and both migratory and resident birds use the
riparian areas as habitat and gather food in or adjacent to the river, Fecal materials from wildlife
can enter the surface water and contribute to bacteria and nutrient loading,
POTENTIAL POINT SOURCES OF POLLUTION
Point source pollution sources can be traced to a verifiable location, .till example ofthis is
discharge from a pipe. Many sites with a potential for point source pollution within the 1,000
feet setback of the Middle Fork and perennial tributaries within an eight-hour time-of-travel
upstream from the V"-illamene Wellfield intake (river mile 189 to 217) were Yisuallyverified by
driving the area. Others were identified through queries of agency databases or intef\'iews with
agency represematiyes (see Appendix B, Po/enrial Conraminanr Sources - Surface rVarer
Componenr ofGroundwarer Under /he Influence of Surface rVarer Syslems), '
Fish Hatcheries
Dex1er Dam Fish Hatchery is part of the Willamene Hatchery Project that raises Chinook salmon
and summer steelhead, This hatchery is located on the north shore of Dexter Reservoir, Adult
fish are caught at Dexter Dam and transported via tanker truck to the Willamene Hatchery at
Oakridge where eggs are incubated and raised to fingerling size, then transported back to Dexter
Dam Hatchery for release to the Middle Fork. Fish are treated with antibiotics added to their
food for fourteen days in summer as needed, This medication can be released in water that
discharges to the resef\'oir (Tim Wright, Dexter Hatchery, Oregon Department ofFish &
Wildlife), ".
Storm \Vater Outfalls
Runoff from streets, parking areas, and drainage ditches can contain nutrients, oils and other
hazardous materials. Storm water outfalls were reported for the city of Lowell and the city of
Springfield. In Springfield, one outfall to the Middle Fork is located at Clearwater boat ramp
and one to the Springfield Mill Race thai joins the Middle Fork is located near 32nd Street,
Springfield Mill Race contributes water to Gorrie Creek, which runs through the Willamene
Wellfield, Points of discharge in Lowell have not been determined.
Undenzround Injection Wells
Underground Injection Wells deposit potential pollutants beneath the soii s~rface. In 1984, EPA
approved DEQ's rules (under the federal Safe Drinking If/mer ACI) to administer a state
Underground Injection Comrol (UlC) program, No Class 1, 11, lJL or IV LilCs are listed in the
current database for the area of interest.

A
Examples of Class V DI Cs include large septic systems, disposal wells, and dr), \i'ells~ The
Oregon DEQ requires DICs be registeredlpermined. SCAR/Jasper Mountain Center, located at
37875 Jasper-Lowell Road, is the only site listed as a registered DIC in the database for the area
of interest.
Other Lar2e Septic Systems
Large septic systems are defined by EPA as serving> 20 persons Iday, Rural mobile home
parks, schools, public parks and campgrounds, service stations, restaurants, ranger starions, RV
parks, and other large facilities or those that provide public services are likely to have large
septic systems (Randall Trox, Oregon DEQ \Vater Quality Division), Chuck Harmon, DEQ
Sanitary Sewer Di\'ision, reponed large septic systems located at Pengra Access and Jasper Park
on the Middle Fork,
Waste Water Treatment FacilitieslDischarge
Discharges of waste-water are regulated by the Oregon Health Department and require a
discharge permit. Untreated waste-water can contribute to bacteria and nutrient loading in water.
Waste-water discharge permits have been issued for waste-water treatment facilities located in
the cities of Lowell (adjacent to Dexter Reservoir) and Dexter (adjacent to the Middle Fork), Six
additional permits have been issued to public.parks, recreation sites, and private concerns within
the I ,OOO-feet setback. Permined sites along the Middle Fork are listed in Table 5,

Hazardous materials and waste associated with production or other activities at more than 30
facilities and industrial sites within the 1,000 feet setback have apotential for .release to surface
Water andlor groundwater. Industries located within the area of interest include wood products,
vehicle repair and maimenance, sah'age yards, fueling stations, fish hatcheries. and hvdro-
electric dams These potentia] point-sources include chemical storage tanks, releases' from
equipment. and lagoons.

Water Wells
Water wells can act as a direct conduit for contaminants to enter groundwater. There is an ,"
interface between groundwater and surface water, with groundwater contributing flow to surface
water, especial1y during dryer seasons, The State of Oregon-Lane County on-line Well Log
Report for the relative area indicates greater than 1,600 water wells have been recorded within or
near the 1 ,OOO-feet setback. The report indicates that 55 of these water wells have been
abandoned, unreported wells and improperly abandoned wells may also be located within this
area, These wells can pose a high risk for contaminants entering groundwater (Michael Mattick,
Oregon Water Master, District 2),
Leaking Under2round Storage Tanks
Eleven sites within the area of interest were included on the March, 2001 Leaking Underground
Storage Tank (LUST) database for the area of interest (Table 6),lnfonnation fTOm this and other
databases was provided by Rachael Burr, DEQ Drinking Water Protection Specialist.

Other Possible Pollution Sources
Other potential sources of pollution in the watershed include timber harvesting, pesticides and
fenilizers used by' homeowners, historic land uses such as household dump sites and unreported
septic systems and wells, maintenance of utility lines, discarded or improperly stored hazardous
materials, and accidental releases from vehicles and tank cars,

SUMMARY
This Inventory to assess major potential contaminant sources that could impact public drinking
water is provided as part of the permit requirements for construction of a slow sand filter system.
The inventory was conducted within an estimated eight-hour time of travel upstream from the
intake and an approximate setback of 1,000 feet for both the Middle Fork Willamette River and
its perernlial tributaries,
SUB is constructing a slow sand filter system ",~thin the Willamette Wellfield to meet OIID
requirements for groundwater sources found to be under the influence of surface water. SUB
will also use existing water rights on the Middle Fork to supplement groundwater resources with
surface water, Both groundwater and surface water from an intake on the Middle Fork will be
filtered through the slow sand filter system and used as drinking water for the city of Springfield,
Data collected for this document will be used in developing an update to the Springfield
Drinking, Water Protection Plan to expand the existing delineations for the Willamette Wellfield
and in making day-to-day decisions on water quality issues. It also forms the basis of inter-
agency cooperative agreements between Springfield, Lane County, Dexter, Lowell, Army Corp
of Engmeers, D,S, Forest Service, Middle Fork Willamette Watershed Council, and others with
whom there is a mutual interest in ensuring a clean and plentiful water supply in the Middle Fork
for all health, economic, and other beneficial uses, . ;
