When dealing with lined evapotranspiration beds, what is the required distance for public water wells?

The correct distance for the placement of lined evapotranspiration beds relative to public water wells is 150 feet. This requirement is based on the need to ensure that there is a sufficient buffer zone to protect the groundwater from potential contamination. Evapotranspiration beds are designed to manage wastewater safely, but they can still have some risk of leachate and contaminants under certain conditions. By maintaining a separation distance of 150 feet, the buffer helps to provide additional protection, allowing for natural filtration to occur and reducing the likelihood of contaminants reaching the well water supply. This is an essential consideration in protecting public health and maintaining safe drinking water standards.
