Texas Industrial Hazardous Waste Focused Investigation For Class V UIC Checklist

Deep-well injection and/or underground injection projects can cause serious risk to groundwater supplies if not managed correctly. The Texas Industrial Hazardous Waste Focused Investigation For Class V UIC Checklist covers topics related to the investigation of Class V Underground Injection Control wells. Most Class V wells rely on gravity to drain fluids directly below the land surface. Dry wells, cesspools, and septic system leach fields are examples of simple Class V wells. Because their construction often provides little or no pretreatment and these fluids are injected directly into or above an underground source of drinking water, proper management is important. A Class V Well serves as a disposal well to remove waste by discharging said waste deep underground. This app covers topics related to waste generation, storage, and disposal, how the waste is collected above ground, where off-site disposal sites and onsite disposal units are located, how subsurface fluid is distributed, whether or not disposal wells are authorized, and much more information.
