All wells having a history of flowing as a result of artesian pressure shall be maintained and equipped to prevent flowing due to pressure in the aquifer system. Wells without any history of flowing that begin to flow shall be repaired, or retrofitted as necessary to prevent flowing. Such repair or retrofit shall be completed within a period of 30 days of notice by the county. This includes flowing as a result of a failed casing or other deteriorated component, or the absence of a surface seal.
