(B) The source of fluids used to dilute, carry, or otherwise distribute the injectant throughout the injection zone. If
any well within the area of review of the injection facility is to be used as the fluid source, then the following
information shall be submitted: location/ID number, depth of source, formation, rock/sediment type, and a
chemical analysis of the water from the source well, including analyses for all contaminants suspected or
