Goal 1:
Assure that all new and
decommissioned wells
are constructed in
accordance with
requirements
established by the
Washington
Department of Ecology
(ECY) or defer
enforcement to ECY
Inspect at least 50%
of all new wells
constructed with
25% of these with
the well driller
present and 90% of
all wells being de-
commissioned
Be available when well
start notifications are
received to conduct
inspections within 3 days
of start
When a well application
is received for a
decommissioning contact
the well driller to discuss
timing and schedule.

Goal 2:
Integrate water
adequacy review with
compliance with Water
Resource Inventory
Area (WRIA) 17 and
the In-Stream Flow
Rule (ISFR)
Comply with
reporting
requirements from
ECY by updating
database to include
means to track ISFR
information
Determine through review
of building permit
applications and
subdivision potable water
review if subject to
requirements of ISFR rule
(map check and parcel
info)
Determine the sub-basin
and management area in
accordance with rule.
Add activities and
conditions that allow for
data tracking

Goal 3:
Integrate water
adequacy review with
compliance to the
Seawater Intrusion
Ordinance
Comply with the
requirements of the
(DCD) Jefferson
County Seawater
Intrusion ordinance
and update maps
annually
Create report in database
to determine through
quality testing required
for building permits and
subdivisions potable
water review if subject to
the requirements
Establish new at risk or
high risk zones

new at risk zone 5 0 3 2 2
Number of wells that established a
new high risk zone 3 0 1 2 2
Number of Hydro-geological
assessments reviewed NR* NR* 2 NR* 2 NR* 2 NR*
Goal 4:
Minimize delay of
building permits and
subdivisions project
approval and
completing by
prioritizing water
adequacy review
Conduct initial
review of all potable
water review
applications within
14 days of
application
Create reports in database
to establish date of initial
review and statistics to
better assess issues
around timely approval
Percent of reviews completed in 14
days NR* NR* 50% 75% 75%
Goal 5
Ensure consistent
compliance with
drinking water
requirements
Work toward
coordination with
other permitting
agencies. Those
agencies include but
are not limited to
DOH (in-stream
flow rule and public
water supplies),
Washington State
Department of
Agriculture (food
processing permit
applications), JC
food safety and JC
onsite, JCDCD
Establish regular meeting
dates and agreements
when applications trigger
coordination
Partner with WSU in
ongoing educational
workshops along with
other regulatory agencies
