(a) "ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER" The Administrator of the Village of Enon, or his/her designee.
(b) "AQUIFER." Bedrock or a glacial formation, group of glacial formations, or part of a glacial formation that contains enough saturated permeable material to yield significant quantities of water.
(c) "REGULATED SUBSTANCES." Substances to be regulated, hereinafter referred to as Regulated Substances, are chemicals and mixtures of chemicals which are health hazards. Materials packaged for personal or household use as food or drink for human or animal consumption are not Regulated Substances. Regulated Substances include:
(1) Chemicals for which there is valid scientific evidence that acute or chronic health effects may result from exposure including carcinogens, toxic and highly toxic agents, reproductive toxins, irritants, corrosives, sensitizers, hepatotoxins, nephrotoxins, neurotoxins, agents which act on the hematopoietic system, and agents which damage the lungs, skin, eyes, or mucous membranes.
(2) Mixtures of chemicals which have been tested as a whole and have been determined to be a health hazard.
(3) Mixtures of chemicals which have not been tested as a whole but which contain any chemical which has been determined to be a health hazard. These chemical mixtures would be considered hazardous if they: a) contain one (1.0) percent or greater on a weight per unit weight basis, a known or listed hazardous chemical or b) contains one tenth of one (1.0) percent or greater on a weight per unit weight basis, a known carcinogenic compound.
(4) Ingredients of mixtures prepared within the Well Field Protection Overlay District in cases where such ingredients are health hazards but comprise less than one tenth of one (0.1) percent of the mixture on a weight per unit weight basis if carcinogenic, or less than one (1.0) percent of the mixture on a weight per unit weight basis if non-carcinogenic.
(5) Petroleum and non-solid petroleum derivatives (except non-PCB dielectric fluids).
(6) Other solids, liquids and gases that the Ohio EPA may designate in the future as hazardous substances.
(d) "CAPTURE AREA, ONE YEAR." The area around protected public water supply well fields scientifically delineated by the one-year travel time contour.
(e) "CAPTURE AREA, FIVE YEAR." The area around protected public water supply well fields scientifically delineated by the five-year travel time contour.
(f) "DIRECT RECHARGE AREA." That portion of a drainage basin in which water infiltrating vertically from the surface will intercept the water table.
(g) “DRINKING WATER SOURCE PROTECTION PROGRAM" Ohio EPA's program is based on the Safe Drinking Water Act as amended in 1996 and was approved by US EPA in November, 1999. The Source Water Assessment and Protection Program expands the Wellhead Protection Program to include all public water systems, including those using surface waters. The processes, guidance, and documents produced for and under the Wellhead Protection Program form the core of this program.
(h) "RECHARGE LAGOON." A body of water designed and maintained by man to add water to the groundwater at a rate greater than that occurring naturally.
(i) "WELL FIELD." A tract of land that contains production wells for supplying water.
(j) "JUNK YARD/RECYCLING CENTER" means a place or structure where waste, discarded, or salvaged materials are bought, sold, exchanged, baled, packed, disassembled, handled or stored, or any combination there of, including auto wrecking yards, house wrecking yards, used lumber yards, and places or yards for storage of salvaged house wrecking and structural steel materials and equipment; but not including used cars in operable condition, or salvagt'!d materials incidental to manufacturing operations, and not including such places where such uses are conducted entirely within a completely enclosed building or structure.
(k) "POTABLE WATER." Water that is satisfactory for drinking, culinary and domestic purposes, which meets current drinking water standards.
(l) “PROTECTION COMMITTEE" A group of individuals that represent the organizations, businesses, and other participants in the drinking water source protection planning process and those mostly likely to be affected by any decisions made. Many participants will also play a role in implementing protective strategies.
(m) "PROTECTED PUBLIC WATER SUPPLY." A public water system which services at least fifteen (15) service connections used by year-round residents or regularly serves at least twenty-five (25) year-round residents, and having a one-year capture area defined through appropriate hydrologic studies.
(n) "ZONE OF INFLUENCE." A zone delineated by iso-travel time contours around well fields. The zone is calculated, based on the rate of movement of groundwaters in the vicinity of wells with an allowance for the dispersion of a pollutant entering into and moving with the groundwater.
(o) "TRAVEL TIME CONTOUR." A locus of points from which water takes an equal amount of time to reach a given destination such as a well or well field.
(p) "UNDERGROUND STORAGE TANK." Any one or combination of tanks (including underground pipes connected thereto) which is used to contain an accumulation of Regulated Substances and the volume of which (including the volume of underground pipes connected thereto) is ten (10) percent or more beneath the surface of the ground.
The term Underground Storage Tank does not include any of the following:
(1) Pipeline facilities, including gathering lines, regulated under The Natural Gas Pipeline Safety Act of 1968", 82 Stat. 720,49 U.S.C.A. 2001, as amended;
(2) Surface impoundments, pits, ponds, or lagoons;
(3) Storm or waste water collection systems;
(4) Flow-through process tanks;
(5) Storage tanks located in underground areas when the tanks are located on or above the surface of the floor and the integrity of the tank is periodically visually evaluated;
(6) Septic tanks; and
(7) Tanks equal or less than five hundred (500) gallons used for storing heating fuel for consumptive use on the premises where stored provided the premises are single-family or two-family residences.
