Notes:
A Water Pollution Hazard is defined as any land use or activity that is expected to create a relatively high risk of potential water pollution. Examples of water pollution hazards may include septic systems, landfills, hazardous waste generators, above or below ground tanks, land application sites, impervious cover, stormwater "hotspots," and road and salt storage areas. One way to avoid possible contamination to waterways is to locate such facilities at a designated distance away from the waterbody in order to decrease the chance of contamination.
