Proposal -Countywide Unused Well Sealing Cost-share Program <br />o Funds from the funding partners will be used only for wells within their respective <br />boundaries. <br />® RCD will return un-used funds (minus project management casts) to water jurisdictions, <br />in the event that insufficient wells are sealed. <br />® $5,000 each would allow approximately fve {S) wells per water jurisdiction to be sealed. <br />This is based on an average of $870 total cost per well sealed during the ongoing grant <br />project RCD is currently operating. Drillers' costs vary by well depth and access <br />difficulty. <br />Water jurisdictions can augment their funding if they choose to seal additional wells. <br />Possible eligibility criteria: <br />® Eligibility criteria can be set by your Board and can vary by District/WMO. <br />m Option: Weil sealing must not be associated with a pending property transaction. <br />® Option: Properties must be owner-occupied and homesteaded. <br />® O_pti~on: Income restrictions. <br />Details of our current well` sealing cost-share program can be seen at: <br />httpa,'~a-l~~+~.co.ranisey.tnn.tlslcd?cast share 1il.ndins;.htm. <br />Please call me at {651) 266-7273 with any questions. <br />Sincerely, <br />__~'~. i <br />Geoffrey Nash, P.G. <br />Groundwater Specialist <br />Ramsey Conservation District <br />x:\groundwater\abandoned well sealing proposals-well sealing-watersheds-wmos\proposal-grass lake wmo--countywide-unused well sealing <br />cost-share program.docx <br />
