Any well constructed for this facility shall comply with the well surface seal (pedestal) specifications of the San Joaquin County Well Standards 4.10 and the Water Well Standards State of California Bulletin 7 -81. The following issues are not conditions of the public water system permit but are recommended for consideration. 1. The use of low flow toilets and low water use equipment is recommended as a conservation measure and to reduce the load on the existing septic systems. 2. The EHD encourages incorporation of a flow meter as part of the installation of a new water source. This can be a useful tool in the overall water-monitoring program 3. The EHD strongly encourages that the well site be secured with fencing in a manner that allows water system staff access for maintenance and operation. 4. The EHD strongly encourages that water line(s) for domestic use(i.e.hand washing, toilets, showers,break rooms, drinking faucets, food preparation sinks, emergency wash sinks/showers and the like.)be separated at the well from the water line(s)that supply water for industrial, irrigation or fire suppression uses. An appropriate back-flow prevention assembly shall be installed on the non-domestic use water line(s). For final approval to place The Nest Water System into service an inspection of the facility distribution system and new water source by EHD must be arranged.
