Section VIII. USDW Contaminations

A Class II, III, or V injection well with a violation of a permit or rule
requirement is said to be in noncompliance. A Class I or IV well with
any violation is said to be in significant noncompliance (SNC). Note:
A Class II, III, or V well with certain types of violations may also be
in significant noncompliance. (See Form 7520-2B (Reverse) for
definitions of SNC violations.)

Enter under each well class the number of times a well in noncompli­
ance has allegedly contaminated an underground source of drinking
water (USDW) this year to date.

Section V. Summary of Violations

Section IX. % MIT Violations Resolved in 90 Days
Enter under each well class the percentage of MIT violations
(identified in Section V., under “Mechanical Integrity”) resolved
within 90 days.

(Includes all noncompliance, significant and non-significant)
In order to calculate the percentage:
Note: Also Report Significant Noncompliance Information on Form
7520-2B.
A. Total Wells: Enter under each well class the number of wells with
a violation(s) identified this year to date, whether or not the well has
been returned to compliance. These totals track the percentage of the
injection well universein noncompliance each year. Enter a well only
once each year.
B. Total Violations:
Item 1-6: Enter under each well class the number of times each
violation (be specific) has been identified this year to date.
Section VI. Summary of Enforcement
A. Total Wells: Enter under each well class the number of wells with
violations that have received an enforcement action(s) this year to
date. These totals track the percentage of the injection well universe
that receives an enforcement action each year. Enter a well only once
each year.
B. Total Enforcement Actions:
Item 1-8: Enter under each well class the number of times wells with
violations have received an enforcement action(s) (be specific) this
year to date.
Section VII. Number of Wells Returned to Compliance
A “Well Returned to Compliance” is a well in violation of UIC
program requirements that has had the violation(s) corrected and the
resolution of the violation(s) has been verified by the regulating
authority. Note: An enforcement action alone (e.g., well shut-in) does
not constitute a “return to compliance.”
A. Enter under each well class the number of wells returned to
compliance in the current quarter only.
B. Enter under each well class the number of wells returned to
compliance (as a result of an enforcement action against a violation)
this year to date. These totals track the percentage of the injection
well universe that returned to compliance through an enforcement
action(s) each year. Enter a well only once each year.

1. Add up the total number of MIT violations to date
whether of not they were identified in this reporting
period, e.g., 10.
2. Add up the number of these violations to date that were
resolved in 90 days or less, e.g., 5.
3. Calculatethe percentage of total MIT violations todate
that have been resolved in 90 days or less, e.g., 50%.
