States. The report is a summary and analysis of the data that the Office of
Pesticide Programs currently has available, both computerized and in hardcopy,
in the Pesticides in Ground Water Database (PGWDB). The report consists of data
from 153 ground-water monitoring projects located in 45 States. Information for
the report was solicited from State environmental and/or agricultural agencies,
other Federal agencies, and research institutions. The report does not contain
data from the National Survey of Pesticides in Drinking Water Wells (NPS).
The report is divided into a National Summary volume and 10 EPA Regional
volumes. In the National Summary volume, pesticide and well data are presented
