A Certificate of Convenience and Necessity (CCN) is issued by the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT), and authorizes a utility to provide water and/or sewer service to a specific service area. The CCN obligates the water or sewer retail public utility to provide continuous and adequate service to every customer who requests service in that area. The maps and digital data provided in the Water and Sewer CCN Viewer delineate the official CCN service areas and CCN facility lines issued by the PUCT and its predecessor agencies. This dataset is a Texas statewide polygon layer of sewer CCN service areas. The CCNs were digitized from Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) county mylar maps. The mylar maps were the base maps on which the CCNs were originally drawn and maintained. CCNs are currently created and maintained using digitizing methods, coordinate geography or imported from digital files submitted by the applicant. TxDOT digital county urban road files are used as the base maps on which the CCNs are geo-referenced. It is best to view the sewer CCN service area data in conjunction with the sewer CCN facility line data, since these two layers together represent all of the retail public sewer utilities in Texas.*Important Notes: The CCN spatial dataset and metadata were last updated on: October 4, 2022The official state-wide CCN spatial dataset includes all types of CCN services areas: water and sewer CCN service areas; water and sewer CCN facility lines.

Water Lines (pipes) within Fuquay-Varina. This is a rather extensive collection of a number of sub-types of water lines, and includes both public and privately owned features. Mainly, there are public water mains, public hydrants legs, private hydrant/fire legs, and private mains/service lines. Water service lines (i.e. service legs from mains to meters) maintained by the Town are only recently being mapped in our GIS system and are limited. When using this data, please pay close attention to WLine_Subtype and OWNEDBY fields. Please note that ALL public utility data layers can be downloaded in a single .mpkx (ArcGIS Pro map package file), updated every Friday evening. This .mpkx file can be opened directly with ArcGIS Pro version 3+. Alternatively, you can extract the file geodatabase within it by renaming the file ending .mpkx to .zip and treating it like a zip archive file, for use in any version of ArcGIS Pro or ArcMap software. You can also use QGIS, a powerful, free, and open-source GIS software.The Town of Fuquay-Varina creates, maintains, and serves out a variety of utility information to the public, including its Potable Water System, Sanitary Sewer System, and Stormwater Collection System features. This is the same utility data displayed in our public web map. This utility data includes some features designated as 'private' that are not owned or maintained by the Town, but may be helpful for modeling and other informational purposes. Please pay particular attention to the terms of use and disclaimer associated with these data. Some data includes the use of Subtypes and Domains that may not translate well to Shapefile or GeoJSON downloads available through our Open Data site.

A reservation of water for instream use is a water right that protects specific instream water uses, such as fish spawning or recreation. It sets aside the water necessary for these activities and keeps later water users from appropriating water that may affect the instream activity. Water can be reserved for one or more permissible uses on a particular part of a stream or lake during a certain period of time. Under AS 46.15.145, permissible instream uses include: Protection of fish and wildlife habitat, migration, and propagation Recreation and parks Navigation and transportation Sanitation and water quality A reservation of water for one use may also allow that same water to be used or reserved for another purpose. For example, a reservation for recreation may also benefit fish spawning. Like an out-of-stream water right, an instream reservation of water is similar to a property right. It cannot be abandoned, transferred, assigned, or converted to another use without approval of the Department of Natural Resources. This shape file characterizes the geographic representation of land parcels within the State of Alaska contained by the Instream Flow Reservation category. It has been extracted from data sets used to produce the State status plats. This data set includes cases noted on the digital status plats up to one day prior to data extraction. Each feature has an associated attribute record, including a Land Administration System (LAS) file-type and file-number which serves as an index to related LAS case-file information. Additional LAS case-file and customer information may be obtained at: http://www.dnr.state.ak.us/las/LASMenu.cfm Those requiring more information regarding State land records should contact the Alaska Department of Natural Resources Public Information Center directly.

This dataset contains water infrastructure locations within the Bellevue service area. The dataset includes individual components such as meters, fittings, valves, fire flow, hydrants, interties, pumps, inlet stations, reservoirs, sampling stations, pipes, casings, vaults, and structures. Data within high-security areas has been redacted to ensure safety and security. This comprehensive dataset is essential for managing, maintaining, and planning the city's water supply and distribution system, as well as for emergency response and infrastructure development purposes.

Attempts have been made to contact all PWS systems, but not all have responded with information on their service area. MassDEP will continue to collect and verify this information. Some PWS service areas included in this datalayer have not been verified by the PWS or the municipality involved, but since many of those areas are based on information published online by the municipality, the PWS, or in a publicly available report, they are included in the estimated PWS service area datalayer.Please note: All PWS service area delineations are estimates for broad planning purposes and should only be used as a guide. The data is not appropriate for site-specific or parcel-specific analysis. Not all properties within a PWS service area are necessarily served by the system, and some properties outside the mapped service areas could be served by the PWS – please contact the relevant PWS. Not all service areas have been confirmed by the systems.Please use the following citation to reference these data:MassDEP, Water Utility Resilience Program. 2024.

This GIS datalayer represents approximate service areas for Public Water Systems (PWS) in Massachusetts. In 2017, as part of its “Enhancing Resilience and Emergency Preparedness of Water Utilities through Improved Mapping” (Critical Infrastructure Mapping Project ), the MassDEP Water Utility Resilience Program (WURP) began to uniformly map drinking water service areas throughout Massachusetts using information collected from various sources. Along with confirming existing public water system (PWS) service area information, the project collected and verified estimated service area delineations for PWSs not previously delineated and will continue to update the information contained in the datalayers. As of the date of publication, WURP has delineated Community (COM) and Non-Transient Non-Community (NTNC) service areas. Transient non-community (TNCs) are not part of this mapping project.

Layers and Tables:

The MassDEP Estimated Public Water System Service Area data comprises two polygon feature classes and a supporting table. Some data fields are populated from the MassDEP Drinking Water Program’s Water Quality Testing System (WQTS) and Annual Statistical Reports (ASR).

The Community Water Service Areas feature class (PWS_WATER_SERVICE_AREA_COMM_POLY) includes polygon features that represent the approximate service areas for PWS classified as Community systems.The NTNC Water Service Areas feature class (PWS_WATER_SERVICE_AREA_NTNC_POLY) includes polygon features that represent the approximate service areas for PWS classified as Non-Transient Non-Community systems.The Unlocated Sites List table (PWS_WATER_SERVICE_AREA_USL) contains a list of known, unmapped active Community and NTNC PWS services areas at the time of publication.

Production

Data Universe

Public Water Systems in Massachusetts are permitted and regulated through the MassDEP Drinking Water Program. The WURP has mapped service areas for all active and inactive municipal and non-municipal Community PWSs in MassDEP’s Water Quality Testing Database (WQTS). Community PWS refers to a public water system that serves at least 15 service connections used by year-round residents or regularly serves at least 25 year-round residents.

All active and inactive NTNC PWS were also mapped using information contained in WQTS. An NTNC or Non-transient Non-community Water System refers to a public water system that is not a community water system and that has at least 15 service connections or regularly serves at least 25 of the same persons or more approximately four or more hours per day, four or more days per week, more than six months or 180 days per year, such as a workplace providing water to its employees.

These data may include declassified PWSs. Staff will work to rectify the status/water services to properties previously served by declassified PWSs and remove or incorporate these service areas as needed.

Maps of service areas for these systems were collected from various online and MassDEP sources to create service areas digitally in GIS. Every PWS is assigned a unique PWSID by MassDEP that incorporates the municipal ID of the municipality it serves (or the largest municipality it serves if it serves multiple municipalities). Some municipalities contain more than one PWS, but each PWS has a unique PWSID. The Estimated PWS Service Area datalayer, therefore, contains polygons with a unique PWSID for each PWS service area.

A service area for a community PWS may serve all of one municipality (e.g. Watertown Water Department), multiple municipalities (e.g. Abington-Rockland Joint Water Works), all or portions of two or more municipalities (e.g. Provincetown Water Dept which serves all of Provincetown and a portion of Truro), or a portion of a municipality (e.g. Hyannis Water System, which is one of four PWSs in the town of Barnstable).

Some service areas have not been mapped but their general location is represented by a small circle which serves as a placeholder. The location of these circles are estimates based on the general location of the source wells or the general estimated location of the service area - these do not represent the actual service area.

The service areas were mapped from 2017 to 2022 and may not include all current active PWSs. A list of unmapped PWS systems is included in the USL table PWS_WATER_SERVICE_AREA_USL available for download with the dataset and shown below. Some PWSs that are not mapped may have come online after this iteration of the mapping project; these will be reconciled and mapped during the next phase of the WURP project. PWS IDs that represent regional or joint boards with (e.g. Tri Town Water Board, Randolph/Holbrook Water Board, Upper Cape Regional Water Cooperative) will not be mapped, because their individual municipal service areas are included in this datalayer.

Some PWSs that are not mapped may have come online after this iteration of the mapping project; these will be reconciled and mapped during the next phase of the WURP project. Those highlighted (e.g. Tri Town Water Board, Randolph/Holbrook Water Board, Upper Cape Regional Water Cooperative) represent regional or joint boards that will not be mapped, because their individual municipal service areas are included in this datalayer.

PWSs that do not have corresponding sources, may be part of consecutive systems, may have been incorporated into another PWSs, reclassified as a different type of PWS, or otherwise taken offline. PWSs that have been incorporated, reclassified, or taken offline will be reconciled during the next data update.

Methodologies and Data Sources

Several methodologies were used to create service area boundaries using various sources, including data received from the systems in response to requests for information from the MassDEP WURP project, information on file at MassDEP, and service area maps found online at municipal and PWS websites. When provided with water line data rather than generalized areas, 300-foot buffers were created around the water lines to denote service areas and then edited to incorporate generalizations. Some municipalities submitted parcel data or address information to be used in delineating service areas.

Verification Process

Small-scale PDF file maps with roads and other infrastructure were sent to every PWS for corrections or verifications. For small systems, such as a condominium complex or residential school, the relevant parcels were often used as the basis for the delineated service area. In towns where 97% or more of their population is served by the PWS and no other service area delineation was available, the town boundary was used as the service area boundary. Some towns responded to the request for information or verification of service areas by stating that the town boundary should be used since all or nearly all of the municipality is served by the PWS.

Sources of information for estimated drinking water service areas

The following information was used to develop estimated drinking water service areas:

Last Rev. 01/24/08 - E.Foster, P.E. - FSU/BSRCThe Historic Shoreline Database on the Web contains many directories of related types of information about beach changes in Florida over the past 150 or so years. The historic shoreline map images (see the Drawings directory) show precision-digitized approximate mean high water (mhw) shorelines, from the US government coastal topographic maps listed in the associated map bibliography files (see the Sourcebibs directory). These generally show data extending from the mid to late 1800’s to the mid to late 1970’s. The mhw positions have been extracted and tabulated (see the MWHfiles directory) relative to fixed reference “R” points along the beach, spaced approximately 1000 feet (300 meters) apart. Reference points not actually corresponding to actual “in the ground” survey markers are virtual “V” points. Mean high water positions have been and continue to be extracted from FDEP beach profile surveys from the 1970’s through the present and added to the tables. The beach profile data files from which mhw data have been extracted and added into the mhw tables can be found in the ProfileData directory and visually (for many areas) in the ClickOnProfiles directory. The beach profile files include elevation information along the entire length of the profiles. This profile data set has undergone up to fifteen additional quality control checks to ensure accuracy, reliability, and consistency with the historic database coordinate and bearing set. Note that any data deeper than wading depth have not yet undergone any extra quality control checks. Note also that there are *.cod text files of notes associated with the review of the profile data files.The digital historic shoreline map image files are given in a DWG autocad-based format, which should be usable on most versions, as well as many GIS systems. The Florida State Plane 1927/79-adjusted and 1983/90 horizontal coordinate systems are used. These are not metric systems, but with the proper software can be converted to whatever systems you may need. Each map image DWG file contains many layers, documented in an ASCII layer list archived with the DWG file.The database has been maintained and greatly expanded by E. Foster since approximately 1987 and by N. Nguyen since 1995. The initial map digitizing effort was done for FDEP at Florida State University, primarily by S. Demirpolat. Final processing and editing of the original map files to make them user-friendly was performed by N. Nguyen and E. Foster in 1995-7. Extensive quality control and update work has been performed by E. Foster since 1987, and by N. Nguyen since 1995. Field profile surveys have been performed by the FDEP Coastal Data Acquisition section since the early 1970’s, and by a number of commercial surveyors in recent years.The formats of the mhw tables and profile files are explained in text files included in the respective directories.Note that the digitized map image files were originally created in the UTM coordinate system on Intergraph equipment. The translation from UTM to the State Plane coordinate systems has resulted in some minor textual and other visual shifts in the northwest Florida area map image files.The dates in the map legends in the map images are generally composite dates. It is necessary to use the mhw data tables and map bibliographies for accurate dates for any specific location. The date ranges in the data tables relate to specific information given in the map bibliography files.2Generally it may be assumed that the historic shorelines have been digitized as carefully as possible from the source maps. If a historic shoreline does not contain a systematic position error and is feasible in a physical sense, the accuracy of the mhw position is estimated at plus or minus 15 to 50 feet (5 to 15 m), depending on the source and scale. This is as a position in time, NOT as an average mhw position. Data added from field surveys are estimated at plus or minus 10 feet (3 m) or better.It is to be noted that from the 1920’s onward, aerial photographs have usually been the basis of the US government’s coastal topographic maps. Prior to that, the method was plane table surveying. Along higher wave energy coasts, especially the Florida east coast, if there was significant wave activity in the source photography, it is very possible that the mhw was mapped in a more landward location than was probably correct. Alternatively, the use of photography sets with excessive sun glare may have caused the mhw to be mapped in a more seaward location than was probably correct. These effects have been frequently observed in comparisons of close-in-time FDEP controlled aerial photography with FDEP profile surveys. The use of some photography sets containing high wave uprush or sun glare is probable within the historic data. For example, on the east coast the 1940’s series maps tend to show the mhw more seaward than expected, possibly due to sun glare, and the 1960’s series tend to show the mhw more landward than expected. In the latter case, the effect may be due to the 1960’s being a decade of frequent storms. It is recommended that the analyst be aware that some of these effects may exist in the historic data. A questionable historic shoreline is NOT necessarily one to be discarded, just considered with allowance for its’ potential limitations.Using this database, it can readily be observed that the historic trends in shoreline evolution are very consistent with behavior expected from the longshore transport equation, well known to coastal engineers. This is a non-linear equation. Shoreline change can be expected to be linear or constant only in certain situations. It is NOT recommended that any analyst arbitrarily assume constant or linear shoreline change rates over long periods of time, which is often done but not supported by the evidence. The three primary factors controlling shoreline change are sand supply, wave climate, and local geographic features. In some parts of Florida, major storms since 1995 have also become important factors.

Digital line graph (DLG) data are digital representations of cartographic information. DLGs of map features are converted to digital form from maps and related sources. Intermediate-scale DLG data are derived from USGS 1:100,000-scale 30- by 60-minute quadrangle maps. If these maps are not available, Bureau of Land Management planimetric maps at a scale of 1:100,000 are used. Intermediate-scale DLGs are sold in five categories: (1) Public Land Survey System; (2) boundaries; (3) transportation; (4) hydrography; and (5) hypsography. All DLG data distributed by the USGS are DLG-Level 3 (DLG-3), which means the data contain a full range of attribute codes, have full topological structuring, and have passed certain quality-control checks.

Connecticut Hydrography Set:

Connecticut Hydrography Line includes the line features of a layer named Hydrography. Hydrography is a 1:24,000-scale, polygon and line feature-based layer that includes all hydrography features depicted on the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) 7.5 minute topographic quadrangle maps for the State of Connecticut. This layer only includes features located in Connecticut. These hydrography features include waterbodies, inundation areas, marshes, dams, aqueducts, canals, ditches, shorelines, tidal flats, shoals, rocks, channels, and islands. Hydrography is comprised of polygon and line features. Polygon features represent areas of water for rivers, streams, brooks, reservoirs, lakes, ponds, bays, coves, and harbors. Polygon features also depict inundation areas, marshes, dams, aqueducts, canals, tidal flats, shoals, rocks, channels, and islands shown on the USGS 7.5 minute topographic quadrangle maps. Line features represent single-line rivers and streams, aqueducts, canals, and ditches. Line features also enclose all polygon features in the form of natural shorelines, manmade shorelines, dams, closure lines separating adjacent waterbodies, and the apparent limits for tidal flats, rocks, and areas of marsh. The layer is based on information from USGS topographic quadrangle maps published between 1969 and 1984 so it does not depict conditions at any one particular point in time. Also, the layer does not reflect recent changes with the course of streams or location of shorelines impacted by natural events or changes in development since the time the USGS 7.5 minute topographic quadrangle maps were published. Attribute information is comprised of codes to identify hydrography features by type, cartographically represent (symbolize) hydrography features on a map, select waterbodies appropriate to display at different map scales, identify individual waterbodies on a map by name, and describe feature area and length. The names assigned to individual waterbodies are based on information published on the USGS 7.5 minute topographic quadrangle maps or other state and local maps. The layer does not include bathymetric, stream gradient, water flow, water quality, or biological habitat information. This layer was originally published in 1994. The 2005 edition includes the same water features published in 1994, however some attribute information has been slightly modified and made easier to use. Also, the 2005 edition corrects previously undetected attribute coding errors.

Location and attributes for hydrography features shown on FIRM as lines.

The S_Wtr_Ln table contains information about surface water linear features. The spatial elements representing surface water line features are lines. Normally stream centerlines will be represented as line features. However, the main purpose of the S_Wtr_Ar table and the S_Wtr_Ln table is to provide a cartographic depiction of the surface water features for visual interpretation of the mapping data. As a result, the method for structuring surface water features as lines or polygons is very flexible. Lake shorelines and stream channel banks used to show lakes and wide rivers may be represented as polygons. However, they may be represented as lines based on the structure of the data received and the mapping partner’s discretion. Surface water features may appear in either the S_Wtr_Ar table or the S_Wtr_Ln table or both. The hydrologic structure of the modeled stream network will be represented by the S_Profil_Basln layer. This information is used in the Transect Locator Map and the FIRM Panel Index in the FIS report, as well as the FIRM panels.
