In the event of abandonment of any water well or other type of well the proper procedure and materials shall be used
as follows:
(a)The well shall be plugged to prevent the entrance of surface water,circulation of water between or among pro-
ducing zones,or any other process resulting in the contamination or pollution of ground water resources.
(b)In the event of temporary abandonment or discontinuance of the use of any well,the well shall be sealed with a
watertight cap or seal,as provided by Section 25-12842(c).
(c)The well shall be chlorinated prior to abandonment using a chlorine solution with a minimum concentration of one
hundred fifty parts per million(150 ppm)of chlorine. This is equivalent to 5.5 quarts of bleach at 2.25% available
chlorine to five hundred(500)gallons of water or three hundred thirty-three(333)feet of six(6)inch diameter well.

( )The well shall be checked from land
surface to the entire depth of the well before it is sealed,to insure against the

bentonite clay grout,or sand clay or bentonite cement grout.

(h)Any test well or bore shall be abandoned in such a manner that it does not become a channel for the vertical
movement of water or other substance to the potable ground water resources.
(i)Deep waste disposal or oil wells with casings free of any breaks,and extending below the potable ground water.
zones,may be sealed with a water tight cap or welded plate.
