7.2.3.5 Goals Achieved <br />As this action is implemented, the City's WHPA/DWSMA delineations will remain current. New well owners <br />will also be identified and educational materials identified/developed as part of other well management <br />strategies can be provided to these new well owners. <br />Success criterion: Bi-annual determination of whether there are new high capacity wells in or near the <br />DWSMAs and if there have been any major changes in permitted appropriations for existing high capacity <br />wells in or near the DWSMAs. <br />7.3 Potential Contaminant Source Properties <br />The management objectives outlined in this section consist of providing information to owners of <br />potential Class V well properties, promoting proper operation of storage tanks, maintaining an up-to-date <br />database of storage tank properties in the DWSMAs, promoting proper handling of chemicals and wastes, <br />reduction of waste streams at potential contaminant source properties within the DWSMAs, and <br />maintaining the Inner Wellhead Management Zone (IWMZ) around each well so that potential <br />contaminants are prevented from entering the IWMZs. <br />7.3.1 Notification of Owners of Potential Class V Well Properties <br />During the PCSI, seven separate property parcels where Class V wells may be or may have been located <br />were identified within the West DWSMA. The City will provide a fact sheet on Class V wells and reporting <br />requirements to owners of properties with active businesses where Class V wells may be or may have <br />been located. The fact sheet will describe what a Class V well is and the impacts such wells can have on <br />groundwater quality. <br />7.3.1.1 Source of Action <br />City staff, perhaps with the assistance of the MDH, U.S. EPA, and/or Wellhead Protection Consultant, will <br />obtain or prepare a packet that includes information on what constitutes a Class V well and what federal <br />requirements are associated with Class V wells. City staff will mail the information packet to targeted <br />property owners in the West DWSMA. <br />7.3.1.2 Cooperators <br />Potentially staff MDH, U.S. EPA, and the Wellhead Protection Consultant <br />7.3.1.3 Time Frame <br />Distribution of the information on Class V wells will occur within two years of approval of this Plan. <br />7.3.1.4 Estimated Cost <br />Approximately $1,000 to $2,000. Estimated costs include City staff time, printing and postage costs and, <br />potentially, Wellhead Protection Consultant costs. <br />24 <br />
