Re: Well at 201 West Road
Dear Mr . Deptula:
Thank you for your letter of December 19, 1996 . It arrived
with my Christmas mail . Your quote of Section 19-13-B51f and Sec.
19-13-B51g (a) and (b) shows where I missed compliance.
The well in question was installed on the Tuesday after Labor
Day because we waited for the driest part of the year and
subsequently the lowest ground water elevations . Presently, even
my supply pipe i-- underwater . The high ground water and frost
makes excavation, difficult and messy. The mess and disturbance
would pollute ray water .
During a drier period of the year T will have the area around
the well casing excavated and propose to install an impervious
(plastic) water shield around the outside of the well at that time.
I will also use mortar to seal the well tiles and. the hole for the
pipe.
I will coordinate any work with your office before starting
but must delay starting until a more favorable time of year .
Sincerely,
X4

Re : Well at 201 West Road
Dear Mr . Gallician :
We are happy to receive our C.O. and Release. The work
necessary to achieve those items allow you some assurance that we
are and have been ethical members of this community concerned about
the general (as well as personal ) health, safety and welfare.
We have spent a year and a half with the town concerning
the "approved source" of our drinking water . Not whether it was
safe or whether it was adequate as we had numerous tests showing
it was, but as to whether it was an "approved source" . In the end,
we paid to have it dug up and reconstructed, and with all this the
town never witnessed the construction or reconstruction. All that
matters at this point is they are now placated.
Sincerely,
Kenneth & Andrea Pudeler

PHYSICAL PARAMETERS
ODOR; MCL = none, recommended < 2 - Scale 0 = none, 1 =
very faint, 2 = faint, 3 = distinct. 4 = decided.
5 = strong. Good well water should be free of odor.
TURBIDITY; MCL = none, recommended < 5 - A measure of
Particles in the water, usually indicates iron.
PH; MCL = none, recommended 6.4 - 10.0 - pH ranges from
0 - 14. A pH of 7 is neutral , < 7 is acidic, > 7 is
basic. A pH less than 6.4 is considered acidic and
may be corrosive to pipinq.
COLOR; MCL = none, recommended < 15 - High color usually
indicates the presence of iron.
INORGANIC PARAMETERS
NIRITE NITROGEN; MCL 1.0 mq/L - An intermediate breakdown
Product of organic matter. See nitrate comment.
NITRATE NITROGEN; MCL 10.0 mq/L - The final completely
oxidized staqe of nitroqen. Levels above 10 are known
to be harmful to infants. Pregnant/nursinq mothers
and parents of infants should consult with a physican.
CHLORIDE; MCL 250 mq/L - .The non-metallic portion of common
salt. Levels above 50 mq/L may indicate undesirably
hiqh sodium levels and it also may appreciably
increase corrosion rates. Levels above 250 mq/L inpart
a salty taste noticeable to most people.
HARDNESS; MCL none - A measure of the total calcium and
maqnesium in water. Waters over 100 mq/L are described
as hard and levels over 250 mq/L are considered very
hard. The effect of hardness is to increase the amount
of soap necessary to form suds with water. Hiqh levels
may also increase scalinq on the inside of water pipes.
IRON; MCL none - Above 0.3 mq/L iron may cause staininq to
laundry and fixtures. Iron is naturally occurrinq
water mineral due to the geology of the area.
MANGENESE; MCL none - Above 0.05 mq/L mangense may cause
staininq to laundry and fixtures. See iron comment
SULFATE; MCL none - A naturally occuring substance in
water, levels above 250 mq/L may inpart a bitter taste
and render a laxative effect.
SODIUM; MCL none - A notification level of 28 mq/L has been
established for people on low salt diets, hiqh levels
may increase the corrosive effect.
ORGANIC CHEMICALS
VOLATILE ORGANIC CHEMICALS (VOC) - see report for a listinq
of the individual chemical MCL. VOC's are a qas chro-
matographic scan of 58 compounds. This list was de-
termined by the Cannet-icut_ State_Department of Health.

Dear Mr. &Mrs. Pudeler:
This letter is written as a follow-up to our meeting at your property on 201 West Road on September
30, 1996 and as response to your letter to the Building Department dated 10/22/96 (with attached
laboratory analysis of the well water).
As discussed, the Department of Consumer Protection, Well Drilling Board Rules and Regulations
state in part that no well shall be constructed without the properly signed permits. These permit forms
are given from the Board only to licensed, registered well drillers. After completion of the well, the well
driller submits a completion report to the local Health Department attesting to the wells construction.
As of this writing no well permit has been approved by this Department for your dug well.
The Sate Health code specifies in detail how a dug well shall be constructed The construction of your
well as described by Mr. Pudeler does not meet those criteria.
The quality of the water taken from this well is immaterial at this point, since it was collected from a
non-approved source.
Water from a non-approved source cannot be used to serve a residential dwelling. It is this
Department's understanding that you are operating a business from your home. Employees and clients
must not be exposed to this water supply either.
This Department does not believe that the certificate of occupancy will be issued by the Building
Department for this structure without an approved water source.

The Town must take whatever actions may be necessary to protect residents, employees and clients who
may visit you. This situation must be corrected by 11/30/96, if it is not corrected by this date, legal
orders from the Health Department will be forthcoming. This matter will also be referred to the Town
Attorney.
If you have any questions, please contact me at 644-2511 ext. 248.

Dear Mr. &Mrs. Pudeler:
To preclude to issuance of an order from this Department, certain criteria must be met concerning
your well. These criteria were outlined to you in previous correspondence date 11/16/96 (certified#
P462497762).
A permit must be obtained by a Connecticut licensed Well Driller and approved by this Department
The well construction must be per the Public Health Code of the State of Connecticut These
regulations follow as part of this correspondence.
"Sec. 19-13-B51f. Method of construction of wells. (b)Dug well. The casing or sidewalls of a dug well
shall be constructed of watertight concrete at least four inches thick to a depth of at least ten feet below
the ground surface. Below the depth of the watertight casing, loosely laid stone, concrete block, brick
or other materials approved by the commissioner of health may be used. The annular space between
the face of the excavation and the watertight section of casing shall be filled with clean clay or other
impervious material."
"Sec. 19-13-B51g. Well cover. (a)The cover of the dug well shall be made of substantial reinforced
concrete at least four inches thick. Other material approved by the commissioner of health may be
used It shall be of sufficient diameter to overlap the casing or side walls by at least two inches. A tight
joint shall be provided between the casing and cover. If a pump is set on the slab, the top of the slab
shall be sloped to drain away from the pump or drop pipe sleeve."

"(b)A manhole shall be installed if the cover slab cannot be readily removed, and such manhole shall
be provided with a curb extending at least two inches above the slab and equipped with a watertight
overlapping cover. The manhole cover shall be locked or bolted in place in such manner as to prevent
tampering or shall be located in a locked housing."

Re : Well at 201 West Road
Dear Mr . Deptula:
Thank you for your letter of December 19, 1996 . It arrived
with my Christmas mail . Your quote of Section 19-13-B51f and Sec .
19-13-B51g (a) and (b) shows where I missed compliance.
The well in question was installed on the Tuesday after Labor
Day because we waited for the driest part of the year and
subsequently the lowest ground water elevations . Presently, even
my supply pipe is underwater . The high ground water and frost
makes excavation difficult and messy. The mess and disturbance
would pollute my water .
During a drier period of the year I will have the area around
the well casing excavated and propose to install an impervious
(plastic ) water shield around the outside of the well at that time.
I will also use mortar to seal the well tiles and the hole for the
pipe .
I will coordinate any work with your office before starting
but must delay starting until a more favorable time of year .
Sincerely,
Kenneth J. Pudeler

Dear Mr. &Mrs. Pudeler:
This Department is in receipt of your correspondence dated January 13, 1997.
You were made aware of deficiencies associated with your shallow well beginning on September 25,
1996, especially the permit requirement correspondence dated September 25, 1996) and partial
construction requirements (meeting at your property on September 30, 1996). These notifications
allowed an ample time frame to complete the permit process and construction phase before any
high ground water and frost could interfere with proper reconstruction. A drier period of the year
typically will be June(possible)July, August, September of 1997. This is an unacceptable time
frame to resolve this issue, it must be connected much sooner.
Please be advised that this office will not observe or endorse any work associated with the well
unless a proper well permit(State of Connecticut, Department of Consumer Protection, Well
Drilling Permit) has been signed by this Department.
All construction must conform with Health Code regulations including submission of a
completion report and disinfection of the well.

ten days from receipt of the correspondence. Failure to do so will result in the issuance of orders

top by a watertight covering to prevent any foreign matter entering
the well through the gravel.
(d) Drilled well. The construction of a drilled well shall pro-
vide for shutting out all water except that from the water bearing
formations which are intended to supply water to the well. The cas-
ing shall extend at least ten feet below ground surface. Any an-
nular space surrounding the casing pipe needed for drilling shall
be filled with concrete grout to a depth of at least ten feet below
the ground surface. Below ten feet, any clean fill material can be
used. Where the unconsolidated material above consolidated rock
is less than twenty feet deep and the casing ends in the con-
s^lidated rock, the casing shall be effectively sealed in the rock.
(e) Upper terminal of casing. The casing of every well shall
project not less than six inches above the established grade at the
well or above the pump house floor. The well contractor shall as-
certain the established grade before completion of the well. Where a
pitless adapter is used, it shall be designed to, and made of ma-
r ' terials that will, keep soil and water from entering the well during
the life of the casing. A below-ground connection shall not be
su'Jmerged in water at the time of installation. Where a pump
is not installed immediately following the construction of the well,
the well shall be tightly sealed and suitaby vented.

drawal required for the particular installation.In the case of nonpublic water
supply wells with a required withdrawal rate less than ten gallons per mm-
ute, the pumping period during the drilling and clearing may be included
in the time of the yield test. The minimum length of such yield test shall
be four hours for a well with a required withdrawal rate of less than ten
-" --'T^'-- AM gallons per minute;'thirty-six hours for a well with the required withdrawal
rate of from ten to fifty gallons per minute; and seventy-two hours for a
_ well with a required withdrawal rate of more than fifty gallons per minute.
Test pumping shall be continuous at a constant rate for the period required.
In the case of a public well,drawdown shall have held essentially stable for
the last twelve hours prior to the completion of the test.The well contractor
or tester shall record the date of the yield test;the water level in the well
shortly before the yield test begins; the length of the pumping period; the
constant pumping rate;the water level in the well at reasonable intervals
after pumping begins and within five minutes before the pumping ends;and
the water level in the well at reasonable intervals thereafter for a sufficient
time to allow recovery to the water level prior to the yield test. He shall
