(A) In order to carry out the purposes of the aquifer protection program, the Agency will conduct an inventory of land use within the area to assess potential contamination sources.
(B) Not later than three months after approval by the Commissioner of the State Department of Environmental Protection of Level B mapping of aquifers, the Agency will inventory land uses overlying the mapped zone of contribution and recharge areas of the aquifers in accordance with guidelines established by the Commissioner pursuant to Conn. Gen. Stat. § 22a-354f. The inventory shall be completed not more than one year after authorization of the Agency. See Conn. Gen. Stat. § 22a-354e.
(Ord. passed 9-12-2005)
Editor’s note:
This requirement is essentially done. The majority of inventories were completed by DEP in 2000. The purpose of the inventories is to give a general assessment of the areas and to provide a starting point for informing potentially regulated facilities of the program requirements. Towns should consider this a good baseline and update it to reflect current conditions.
