Abstract	This case study of the Spokane Valley-Rathdrum Prairie aquifer, deals with the evolution of water quality protection. A number of institutional efforts on multijurisdictional levels have established a piecemeal approach for this aquifer's protection. Federal legislation includes designation as a 'Sole Source' aquifer under sec. 1424(e) of SDWA, and 1 208' water management programs of the Clean Water Act. Local approaches include Sewage Management Agreements and Utility Local Improvement Districts. Recommendations are made which if implemented would greatly enhance the probabilities of preserving water quality in this aquifer. Key words: aquifer, sole source, Clean Water Act, Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA), Section 1424(e), total dissolved solids (TDS).
