Title
Standard Guide for Maintenance and Rehabilitation of Ground-Water Monitoring Wells
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Jul 10, 1996
Scope:
This guide covers an approach to selecting and implementing a well
maintenance and rehabilitation
program for ground-water monitoring wells. It provides information on
symptoms of problems or
deficiencies that indicate the need for maintenance and
rehabilitation. It is limited to monitoring
wells, that are designed and operated to provide access to,
representative water samples from, and
information about the hydraulic properties of the saturated subsurface
while minimizing impact on
the monitored zone. Some methods described herein may apply to other
types of wells although the
range of maintenance and rehabilitation treatment methods suitable for
monitoring wells is more
restricted than for other types of wells. Monitoring wells include
their associated pumps and
surface equipment.
This guide is affected by governmental regulations and by site
specific geological,
hydrogeological, geochemical, climatological, and biological
conditions.
The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard.
