I've been looking, but where do you find that at?

If you can't find it available online, you can always call 411, ask for your cities water department and ask them where to find it or to fax you a copy of it. It's a big report so they likely will show you where to find it vs faxing it. It's all public information so someone has it.
ok, i will give them a call.
