If no structures exist within 1,000 feet of the permitted facility boundary, is spacing of greater than 1,000 feet between wells appropriate?
No. This cannot be the only criteria for requesting a variance or modification of the requirements. Please note that the 1,000 feet maximum spacing requirement was based on the assumption that there were no nearby structures. If structures or other receptors are nearby, spacing of less than 1,000 feet between wells may be necessary. Please note that to justify larger spacing than 1,000 feet between wells, the operator must demonstrate that there is no potential for adverse impacts on the public health and safety and the environment from such wider spacing. The factors specified in 27 CCR 20923(a)(2) shall be used to make the demonstration.
