===Source Protection Assessment Reports===
{{textbox|Each of the 19 aforementioned SPRs & SPAs has an Assessment Report that acts as a 'living technical document' for that given region. The Assessment report includes:
*Recent research findings and scientific information regarding source water protection;
*A brief overview of each impacted watershed within the SPR/SPA;
*Provides a water budget (which is a way to measure the amount of freshwater water enters, is stored, and leaves a watershed);
*Identifies vulnerable areas near key freshwater sources (municipal wells and intakes);
*Identifies the number of significant threats (agricultural practices, sewage sources, fertilizers, etc.) to water quality near wells and intakes; and,
*Identifies areas that could have varied threat levels (low, moderate, high)}}
