1. All private or public water supplies and geothermal wells, monitoring wells and test wells shall be constructed in strict compliance with the specifications set forth in this Chapter.
2. All private or public water supplies and geothermal wells, monitoring wells and test wells constructed pursuant to this Chapter shall be constructed or altered by a duly licensed well contractor, geothermal well installation contractor, or pump installation contractor who is licensed as set forth in this Chapter. The licensed well or geothermal well installation contractor is responsible for taking all reasonable precautions to insure the maintenance of all isolation distances as set forth in this Chapter. This includes, but is not limited to, visual site inspections, drilling the well in the location specified on the well permit and confirmation of these distances by the property owner.
3. The installation, repair, or alteration of any well, casing, well water supply line for new construction, or pitless adapter, constitutes the installation of a water supply or well and requires a permit prior to the beginning of the installation of a water supply system or of any building(s) for which such a system is to be installed. Geothermal wells are required to be permitted. No permit will be required by the Borough for the installation of a water service line that is connected to a public source; or for treatment processes in a public water system, provided, however, that the disinfection procedures outlined in Part 8 of this Chapter shall be strictly adhered to.
