Underground Injection Well Control

The purpose of this program is to protect public health and the environment from exposure to contaminants that may exist in shallow underground injection wells, such as dry wells, seepage pits, sumps, etc.  These injection wells could transport contaminants to soil and groundwater.  The primary focus is on protection of groundwater from contamination.  Activities include identifying, mapping, inspecting and remediating potential or existing contaminant sources.  The EHD also permits and inspects well installations and destructions used in the investigation/remediation of the injection wells.
