Injection Well Information Program
USEPA's Underground Injection Control (UIC) program is explained in this hypertext-based software package, with a focus on Class V injection wells in particular. These wells inject wastewater directly into or above underground sources of drinking water, so it is important to understand why they exist, why they may pose a danger to the environment, and how they may be operated and maintained safely. Important information for the generalpublic and for well owners and operators. Created: 1993 by M. Sears; updated 1999 and 2005
