Underground Injection
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.
