RE: Notification of intent to construct Type 5QW injection wells
Dear Mr. Fowler:
Michael F. Easley, Governor
William G. Ross Ir., Secretary
artment of Environment and Nature! Resources
Alan W. Klimek, P.E. Director
Division of Water Quality
In accordance with the notification you submitted to the UIC Program on May 7, 2003, the
Groundwater Section acknowledges your intent to construct two closed -loop geothermal water -
only injection wells for the operation of a ground -source heat pump. The system as described in
your notification is deemed permitted by rule (North Carolina Administrative Code Title 15A:
2C.0211(u)(2)) and will not require an injection well permit from the state, but you should check
with your county health department prior to constructing the system because they may have
additional construction or permitting requirements for this type of system. If you modify your
system at any time, please contact the Groundwater Section to verify compliance with applicable
rules.
Thank you for submitting this notification. If you have any questions regarding geothermal heat
pump wells or injection well rules please contact me at (919)715-6166.
