Adm. Code 611.212, for wells that may be subject to surface water influences; 12)         the type, design capacity, head rating, and depth of pump setting; 13)         the column pipe diameter, length, material, and joint; 14)         the discharge pipe diameter, depth of cover, material, and valving; 15)         the casing vent diameter; 16)         the airline length; 17)         the location of the raw water sample tap; 18)         a description of how the top of the well casing is sealed; 19)         a description of access to the well site; and 20)         well hydraulics and aquifer property data. c)         The following information must be submitted on plans for well construction permit applications: 1)         the well location with the following information: A)        a 2,500-foot radius showing the location of potential routes, potential primary sources, and potential secondary sources of contamination; B)        cleanup sites within 2,500 feet of the proposed well site with any of the following: i)          No Further Remediation (NFR) letter; ii)         Groundwater Management Zone (GMZ); iii)        Environmental Land Use Covenant (ELUC); or iv)        an ordinance that restricts the use of groundwater; and C)        a 400-foot radius showing the location of the sources of pollution listed in 35 Ill. Adm. Code 604.150(a); 2)         a cross-section of the well showing finished grade, natural ground surface, vent, casing, column pipe, screen, well depth, pump depth, grout, gravel pack, and discharge piping; 3)         all discharge piping, including pressure gauge, meter, sample tap, check valve, shut-off valve, and vacuum/air release valve, if applicable; 4)         well house construction, if provided; 5)         the locations of all electrical junction boxes; 6)         the locations of all observation wells; and 7)         piping showing the ability to pump to waste. d)         The following information must be submitted on plans for surface water intake construction permit applications: 1)         plan and profile views of the intake structure showing the location, elevation of intake ports, fish screens, valves, piping, and pumps, if applicable; 2)         for sites subject to flooding, the maximum flood level based upon the highest flood level specified in the best available information, such as the flood of record, the 100-year flood projection, or the 500-year flood projection; 3)         location of inspection manholes, if applicable; and 4)         location of chemical treatment, if applicable.
