11-5.9 Inspection and Completion of Work.
a. No annular seal shall be installed or placed for any well except in the presence and with the approval of the Health Officer or his designee except as provided below. The contractor shall notify the Division of Environmental Health at least twelve (12) hours before a well is proposed to be sealed. If the Health Officer or his designee fails to appear at the well site at the time designated for sealing the well, then the well may be sealed without the presence of the Health Officer or his designee. Any requirement for notice established by the Health Officer pursuant to this subsection shall be included on the face of or by attachment to every well permit.
b. No well shall be operated or deemed to be destroyed until the work is complete, as provided in this section. No work is complete or deemed to be complete unless and until:
1. The permittee has given notice to the Health Officer that the work is ready for final inspection including placement of a protective seal; and
2. The final inspection is made or waived by the Health Officer or his designee.
3. The Health Officer is supplied with a copy of the Water Well Drillers Report as supplied to the California Department of Water Resources.
c. Water Well Drillers Reports are to be accessible only to the well driller who drilled the well and the current property owner or their designee with a written authorization from the property owner. Such an authorization shall include the owner’s name, the name of the designee, and the assessor’s parcel number. The written request shall be maintained with the well log. (Ord. #23-90, S1)
