procedures if such removal will not cause or contribute to contamination of the
groundwaters.
(B)The entire depth of each well shall be sounded before it is sealed to insure freedom
from obstructions that may interfere with sealing operations.
(C)The well shall be thoroughly disinfected, prior to sealing, if WQROS staff determines
that failure to do so could lead to the contamination of an .underground source of
drinking water.
(D)Drilled wells shall be completely filled with cement grout or bentonite grout, which
shall be introduced into the well through a pipe which extends to the bottom of the well
and is raised as the well is filled.
(E) In the case of gravel-packed wells in which the casing and screens have not been
removed, neat-cement, or bentonite grout shall be injected into the well completely
filling it from the bottom of the casing to the top.
(F) In those cases when, as a result of the injection operations,a subsurface cavity has been
created, each well shall be abandoned in such a manner that will prevent the movement
of fluids into or between underground sources of drinking water and in accordance with
the terms and conditions of the permit.
(G)The Permittee shall submit a Well Abandonment Record (Form GW-30) as specified
in 15A NCAC 2C .0225(k)(1)(A)within 30 days of completion of abandonment.
