Admin. Code Chapter 40A-2, in which case permit action shall be completed within 90 days of receipt of a complete application for the construction of an artificial recharge well or Fl. Admin. Code Chapter 40A-2, application.

(c) The work being done for a purpose and in a manner which is consistent with generally accepted engineering, hydrologic, and hydrogeologic practices.
(d) Whether the construction of the well will adversely affect the ground water resources.
(e) Whether the proposed well’s proximity to an area of ground water contamination delineated under the provisions of Fl. Admin. Code Chapter 62-524, may adversely affect the ground water resources or present a threat to the health, safety, and welfare of individuals who, through ingestion, inhalation, or dermal absorption may be exposed to ground water contamination.

This criteria shall include stipulations on any of the following items: casing depth, construction method, well depth, water quality sampling, grout specifications, the installation of a water treatment system such as a filter and setback distance from a specific known source of contamination;
(n) Other such reasonable conditions as are necessary to assure that the well will comply with the requirements of Florida Statutes Chapter 373, and will not adversely impact the water resources of the District.
(4) If the permit is obtained by the owner, the permit will be granted with the condition that the permit document be signed by the licensed water well contractor who will perform the work and return the permit to the District prior to construction, repair, or abandonment.
