“…Atrazine has been widely used in the study area (table 1) and has the physical and chemical properties that allow it to move readily in the environment (Capel, 1990). Atrazine was one of 34 pesticides for which Battaglin and Goolsby (1994) estimated use in Roberts County in 1987.…”

Of the 54 pesticides that were analyzed for in the samples collected during July 2015, 47 pesticides were not detected in any samples. Seven pesticides-2-chloro-4-isopropylamino-6-amino-s-triazine (CIAT); 2,4-D; acetachlor; atrazine; glyphosate; metolachlor; and prometon-were detected in the 2015 samples with estimated concentrations or concentrations greater than the laboratory reporting level, and most pesticides were detected at low concentrations in only a few samples. Samples from all wetlands contained at least one detected pesticide. The maximum number of pesticides detected in a wetland sample was six, and the median number of pesticides detected was three. Concentrations of chemical constituents inThe most commonly detected pesticides in the 2015 samples were atrazine and the atrazine degradate CIAT (also known as deethylatrazine), which were detected in 14 and 13 of the wetlands sampled, respectively. Glyphosate was detected in samples from 11 wetlands, and metolachlor was detected in samples from 10 wetlands. The other detected pesticides were 2,4-D (4 wetlands), acetochlor (3 wetlands), and prometon (1 wetland).The same pesticides that were detected in the 2006 samples were detected in the 2015 samples, with the exception of simazine, which was detected only in one sample in 2006. Atrazine and CIAT were the most commonly detected pesticides in both sampling years; however, atrazine and CIAT

Atrazine, which is not readily removed by conventional treatment, may cause problems for water utilities in agricultural areas. To help managers, planners, and regulators determine when and where surface waters are likely to be adversely affected by organonitrogen herbicides, the authors analyzed various data on the distribution of these compounds in the lower Kansas River basin. They found that atrazine was the most frequently detected herbicide, was found in the highest concentrations, and was most likely to exceed the maximum contaminant level. The highest atrazine concentrations in the water were measured where the largest amounts of atrazine had been applied to the land, and median concentrations were higher in spring and summer than in fall and winter. Atrazine and chemically similar herbicides are not effectively removed by traditional water treatment. The Kansas State Board of Agriculture has established a pesticide management area to decrease the amount of atrazine that enters surface water.
