This chapter shall be known and may be cited as the “Groundwater Protection Act”. 87 Acts, ch 225, §101 455E.2 Definitions. As used in this chapter, unless the context otherwise requires: 1. “Active cleanup” means removal, treatment, or isolation of a contaminant from groundwater through the directed efforts of humans. 2. “Commission” means the environmental protection commission created under section 455A.6. 3. “Contaminant” means any chemical, ion, radionuclide, synthetic organic compound, microorganism, waste, or other substance which does not occur naturally in groundwater or which naturally occurs at a lower concentration. 4. “Contamination” means the direct or indirect introduction into groundwater of any contaminant caused in whole or in part by human activities. 5. “Department”means the department of natural resources created under section 455A.2. 6. “Director” means the director of the department. 7. “Groundwater” means any water of the state, as defined in section 455B.171, which occurs beneath the surface of the earth in a saturated geological formation of rock or soil. 8. “Passive cleanup” means the removal or treatment of a contaminant in groundwater through management practices or the construction of barriers, trenches, and other similar facilities for prevention of contamination, as well as the use of natural processes such as groundwater recharge, natural decay, and chemical or biological decomposition. 87 Acts, ch 225, §102 Referred to in §455B.190A 455E.3 Findings. The general assembly finds that: 1. Groundwater is a precious and vulnerable natural resource. The vast majority of persons in the state depend on groundwater as a drinking water source. Agriculture, commerce, and industry also depend heavily on groundwater. Historically, the majority of Iowa’s groundwater has been usable for these purposes without treatment. Protection of groundwater is essential to the health, welfare, and economic prosperity of all citizens of the state. 2. Many activities of humans, including the manufacturing, storing, handling, and application to land of pesticides and fertilizers; the disposal of solid and hazardous wastes; the storing and handling of hazardous substances; and the improper construction and the abandonment of wells and septic systems have resulted in groundwater contamination throughout the state. 3. Knowledge of the health effects of contaminants varies greatly. The long-term detriment to human health from synthetic organic compounds in particular is largely unknown but is of concern. 4. Any detectable quantity of a synthetic organic compound in groundwater is unnatural and undesirable.

The movement of groundwater, and the movement of contaminants in groundwater, are often difficult to ascertain or control. Decontamination is difficult and expensive to accomplish. Therefore, preventing contamination of groundwater is of paramount importance. 87 Acts, ch 225, §103 455E.4 Groundwater protection goal. The intent of the state is to prevent contamination of groundwater from point and nonpoint sources of contamination to the maximum extent practical, and if necessary to restore the groundwater to a potable state, regardless of present condition, use, or characteristics. 87 Acts, ch 225, §104 Referred to in §455B.307 455E.5 Groundwater protection policies. 1. It is the policy of the state to prevent further contamination of groundwater from any source to the maximum extent practical. 2. The discovery of any groundwater contamination shall require appropriate actions to prevent further contamination. These actions may consist of investigation and evaluation or enforcement actions if necessary to stop further contamination as required under chapter 455B. 3. All persons in the state have the right to have their lawful use of groundwater unimpaired by the activities of any person which render the water unsafe or unpotable. 4. All persons in the state have the duty to conduct their activities so as to prevent the release of contaminants into groundwater. 5. Documentation of any contaminant which presents a significant risk to human health, the environment, or the quality of life shall result in either passive or active cleanup. In both cases, the best technology available or best management practices shall be utilized. The department shall adopt ruleswhich specify the general guidelines for determining the cleanup actions necessary to meet the goals of the state and the general procedures for determining the parties responsible by July 1, 1989. Until the rules are adopted, the absence of rules shall not be raised as a defense to an order to clean up a source of contamination. 6. Adopting health-related groundwater standards may be of benefit in the overall groundwater protection or other regulatory efforts of the state. However, the existence of such standards, or lack of them, shall not be construed or utilized in derogation of the groundwater protection goal and protection policies of the state. 7. The department shall take actions necessary to promote and assure public confidence and public awareness. In pursuing this goal, the department shall make public the results of groundwater investigations. 8. Education of the people of the state is necessary to preserve and restore groundwater quality. The content of this groundwater protection education must assign obligations, call for sacrifice, and change some current values. Educational efforts should strive to establish a conservation ethic among Iowans and should encourage each Iowan to go beyond enlightened self-interest in the protection of groundwater quality. 87 Acts, ch 225, §105 455E.6 Legal effects — liability. 1. This chapter supplements other legal authority and shall not enlarge, restrict, or abrogate any remedy which any person or class of persons may have under other statutory or common law and which serves the purpose of groundwater protection. An activity that does not violate chapter 455B or chapter 459, subchapters II and III, does not violate this chapter. In the event of a conflict between this section and another provision of this chapter, it is the intent of the general assembly that this section prevails. 2. Liability shall not be imposed upon an agricultural producer for the costs of active cleanup, or for any damages associated with or resulting from the detection in the groundwater of any quantity of nitrates provided that application has been in compliance with soil test results and that the applicator has properly complied with label instructions Fri Dec 07 21:20:00 2018 Iowa Code 2019, Chapter 455E (22, 1) https://www.legis.iowa.gov/docs/acts/1987/CH0225.pdf https://www.legis.iowa.gov/docs/acts/1987/CH0225.pdf https://www.legis.iowa.gov/docs/code/455B.307.pdf https://www.legis.iowa.gov/docs/code//455B.pdf https://www.legis.iowa.gov/docs/code//455B.pdf https://www.legis.iowa.gov/docs/acts/1987/CH0225.pdf https://www.legis.iowa.gov/docs/code//455E.pdf https://www.legis.iowa.gov/docs/code//455B.pdf https://www.legis.iowa.gov/docs/code//459.pdf https://www.legis.iowa.gov/docs/code//455E.pdf https://www.legis.iowa.gov/docs/code//455E.pdf https://www.legis.iowa.gov/docs/code/455E.6.pdf https://www.legis.iowa.gov/docs/code//455E.pdf https://www.legis.iowa.gov/docs/code/455E.6.pdf 3 GROUNDWATER PROTECTION, §455E.10 for application of the fertilizer. Compliance with the above provisions may be raised as an affirmative defense by an agricultural producer. 3. Liability shall not be imposed upon an agricultural producer for costs of active cleanup, or for any damages associated with or resulting from the detection in the groundwater of pesticide provided that the applicator has properly complied with label instructions for application of the pesticide and that the applicator has a valid appropriate applicator’s license. Compliance with the above provisions may be raised as an affirmative defense by an agricultural producer. 87 Acts, ch 225, §106; 2018 Acts, ch 1041, §127 Code editor directive applied 455E.7 Primary administrative agency.
