Gentlemen: This letter is an official notice to inform you that the property noted above has been determined by Kern County Environmental Health Services Department (KCEHSD) to be the possible site of a Class V shallow injection well. The Well has been identified as a clarifier. This notice is being sent to you because you are the owners of the property listed above. Pursuant to Code of Federal Regulations 40, (40 CFR), Section 144.12 (a), provides that "no owner or operator shall...operate [an injection Well]...in a manner that allows the movement of fluid containing any contaminant into underground sources of drinldng water, if the presence of that contaminant may cause a violation of any primary drinking water regulation...or may otherwise adversely affect the health of Persons." There are indications that a leach line or dry well may be attached to the clarifier system. You may demonstrate that the clarifier is not regulated under the Class V Shallow Injection Well Program within thirty (30) of receipt of this notice. If the clarifier is determined to be a Class V well, characterization work must be initiated as outlined in the enclosed copy of EPA-REGION 9 GUIDELINES FOR CLOSURE OF SHALLOW DISPOSAL WELLS. The booklet cites the minimum required for site work plan activities, contractor requirements, example illustrations of well designs, and sampling methods and procedures. Be advised that KCEHSD may have additional requirements not listed in the EPA closure guideline booklet.
