Abstract
These regulations establish minimum standards for the construction, maintenance, and
operation of the following wells: individual residential, irrigation, monitoring (including
non-standard installations), and boreholes to ensure that underground sources of drinking
water are not contaminated and public health is protected. These regulations do not apply
to public water wells as those standards are stated in R.61-58. Additional requirements
may be found for injection wells in R.61-87; for water wells which produce greater than 3
million gallons per month in capacity use areas as stated in the regulations promulgated
under the Groundwater Use and Reporting Act; for oil and gas exploration and
production wells as required under the Oil & Gas Exploration, Drilling, Transportation
and Production Act as stated in regulation R.121-8; and for monitoring and remediation
wells required under the State Hazardous Waste Management Regulations (R.61-79).
Permitting requirements for Individual Residential Wells and Irrigation Wells are found
in R.61-44.
