045-5 Wyo. Code R. §§ 5-19 - Groundwater Monitor Wells
Requests for the construction of these wells on highway right-of-way may come from Federal or State agencies as well as from private individuals who have a requirement to monitor groundwater for pollution.
License Form E-54 may be issued for these facilities as long as the well location(s) is not interfering with maintenance activities or anticipated construction/ reconstruction of the road, and as long as the location of the facility and the periodic extraction of samples or inspection does not create a hazard to pedestrians or vehicle traffic during and after the placement of the well.
Upon completion of the testing/monitoring activity, the well shall be capped and the site restored by the Licensee as specified by the Department's engineer.
Private use of these wells for irrigation or other purposes after completion of the testing period shall not be permitted.
Notes
State regulations are updated quarterly; we currently have two versions available. Below is a comparison between our most recent version and the prior quarterly release. More comparison features will be added as we have more versions to compare.
