However, reconstructions do not require a new high capacity well application or fee. • Contact the department about the project and submit well reconstruction details in writing (e.g., via email at DNRHiCapApplications@wisconsin.gov). • The department will review the reconstruction details for code compliance and, if acceptable, provide an email approving the well reconstruction. • Within 30 days following reconstruction activities, submit a new well construction report, including the original high capacity well number. Therefore, we have attached the WDNR requirements from the code that will apply to this project for your reference. As you are aware, the following well construction exists at Well #6. 1. 22” casing is grouted in place from the surface to 350’ below ground level 2. 20.75” open hole from 350’ to 1070’ total depth a. Within the open hole formation, we find a defined Shale layer (aquitard) from 410’ to 430’ Through the packer testing that has been performed, we have verified that there is significant downward flow from the upper “perched” aquifer to the lower aquifer, above and below this shale layer. The packer test has confirmed a differential hydrostatic pressure of over 60’ between the aquifers. The packer test also confirmed that a reduction in the nitrate levels can be sustained by isolating the upper aquifer. Therefore, we are recommending a well reconstruction to install a liner to essentially extend the surface casing to a depth of 440’, which is about 5’ below the Grey Shale recorded from 410’ to 430’ (see attached well construction log ZU712). The intent will be to seal off the intrusion of water from the upper aquifer flowing down into the lower aquifer to improve water quality.
