Sec. 144.79  General.

    This subpart tells you what requirements apply if you own or operate 
a Class V injection well. You may also be required to follow additional 
requirements listed in the rest of this part. Where they may apply, 
these other requirements are referenced rather than repeated. The 
requirements described in this subpart and elsewhere in this part are to 
protect underground sources of drinking water and are part of the 
Underground Injection Control (UIC) Program established under the Safe 
Drinking Water Act. This subpart is written in a special format to make 
it easier to understand the regulatory requirements. Like other EPA 
regulations, it establishes enforceable legal requirements.
