Description This handbook was prepared to provide you with helpful information in planning the construction of your well. State law requires that all wells meet certain minimum standards for construction. These standards are outlined in "Minimum Standards for Construction and Maintenance of Wells". You and your well driller share the responsibility to ensure that the wells on your property are constructed to these standards.
