Monitoring well plan files, 1984-[ongoing].

The Division of Industrial Waste Water Management implements programs to prevent or clean up the pollution of surface and ground water in Massachusetts by industry.

Well plans are submitted by applicants to the division for review and approval; the division seeks to ensure that monitoring of wells adequately represents monitoring of the quality of affected drinking water supplies.
