This subchapter is intended to protect the public health, safety and welfare by complying with s. NR 811.10, Wis. Adm. Code, which directs suppliers of water for municipal water systems to require the abandonment of all unused, unsafe or non-complying wells located on the premises served by their systems and to provide a permit system to allow retention of safe, code-complying wells, for the purposes of eliminating sources of unsafe water, preventing such wells from becoming channels for vertical movement of contaminated water, eliminating all existing cross-connections and preventing all future cross-connections. The requirements of this subchapter apply to all wells located on premises served by the city water system.
