Wells drilled in areas underlain by metavolcanic rocks identified on the 1958 State Geologic Map as bedded argillites of the Carolina Slate Belt shall be cased to a minimum depth of 35 feet. These areas are generally described as follows: a dominant landscape of gently sloping ridges and strongly sloping side slopes with well drained soils occurring on the uplands. The soils are characterized by deep soils with firm silty clay subsoils and soils with shallow rock and saprolite. The major soil series are Georgeville, Herndon, Tatum, Nason, Lignum, and Goldston.

(A) It shall be unlawful for any person or firm to rent or offer for rent, lease, or offer for lease, any residence or place of business without a potable water supply. The owner shall provide proof that the water quality meets bacteriological standards recommended by the Division of Health Services. The supply shall also have at least one sample recorded with the Health Department as to the nitrate level.
(B) All wells under this section shall be protected according to the recommended standards of the Division of Health Services.
(C) All supplies that serve two connections, residences or businesses, or more but less than 15 will be sampled by the Health Department for bacteriological analysis semi-annually.
(D) Where only one connection, residence or business, is involved, the Health Department shall be notified by the owner or agent upon occupancy of each new tenant. The Health Department will collect a sample for bacteriological analysis at that time.
(E) All water supplies covered under this section that fail to meet the bacteriological standards shall be treated by an approved chlorination method. If periodic contamination occurs, those water supply systems shall be equipped with mechanical devices to ensure adequate disinfection.
