Identification_Information: Citation: Citation_Information: Originator: Kansas Department of Health and Environment and U.S. Geological Survey Publication_Date: 20101215 Title: Kansas Surface Water Register - Registered Waterbodies and Wildlife Areas (Lakes) Geospatial_Data_Presentation_Form: vector digital data Description: Abstract: This data set includes only the lake boundaries and other water areas that are included in the December 2010 Kansas Surface Water Register and is a subset of the dataset "Hydro_Waterbodies.lyr". The NHD was clipped at the state boundary and an unique identifier, PROJECT_NAME, was added to the NHD from the Kansas Surface Water Register. Water areas were also added to reflect those wetlands that were not designated as water bodies on the NHD, however, are designated as protected water resources on the Kansas Surface Water Register. Purpose: The Monitoring and Analysis Unit monitors water quality conditions in streams and publicly owned lakes and wetlands throughout Kansas. This Section also tracks environmental contaminant levels in fish and other aquatic life and performs special water pollution investigations in cooperation with the KDHE district offices and other governmental agencies. The Kansas Surface Water Register spatail dataset is provided to the public as a portion of the Kansas Open Records Act (KORA). Supplemental_Information: http://maps.kdhe.state.ks.us/kswatermonitor/ links to the KS Surface Water Monitoring Interactive Map. http://www.kdheks.gov/befs/download/Current_Kansas_Surface_Register.pdf links to the most recent Kansas Surface Water Register. The Kansas Department of Health and Environment is responsible for designating uses of surface waters as a part of establishing surface water quality standards. Designated uses are listed in the Kansas Surface Water Register and adopted by reference in regulation (K.A.R. 28-16-28d). A use attainability analysis (UAA) is a procedure to evaluate water bodies and assign designated uses. The federal regulations (40 CFR 131.10) allow a State to designate a use without conducting a UAA, but a UAA must be conducted to remove a designated use.

Source_Used_Citation_Abbreviation: NHD1 Process_Date: 2001 Process_Step: Process_Description: Utilizing the National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) as a base map, the NHD was clipped at the Kansas State boundary so to include only those lakes hat fall within Kansas's jurisdiction. PROJ_NAME was added to the NHD as the unique identifier that will allow the NHD to be spatially joined with the Kansas Surface Water Register. Source_Used_Citation_Abbreviation: NHD1, USGS, KGS Process_Date: 08/01/2005 Process_Step: Process_Description: The USGS NHD was modified by KDHE-BEFS to better serve KDHE in planning process. Errors have be found in the original NHD due to technology constraints at the time the NHD was digitized. A majority of the changes include the floodpool areas above lakes. Some additional lakes have also been created since the publication of the NHD. Water area land boundaries were also added to reflect those outstanding national resource waters that were not designated as water bodies on the NHD, however, are designated as protected water resources on the Kansas Surface Water Register. These changes have been corrected in this copy of the NHD currently used by KDHE. For specific areas of changes, contact KDHE- Bureau of Environmental Field Services.
