FCSAP advisory bulletin (FAB) : how, when and why do I decommission a groundwater monitoring well?: En84-135/2016E-PDF
“ Most jurisdictions in Canada have guidelines and procedures outlining proper groundwater monitoring well installations. The majority of environmental site investigation and remediation plans incorporate these guidelines and procedures into their workplans. In addition to an installation and sampling plan for groundwater monitoring wells at contaminated sites, a proper decommissioning of monitoring wells should be incorporated into the workplans. Groundwater monitoring wells that are no longer in use or damaged can be conduits for contamination to aquifer(s) and soil. Aquifers are a vital resource for Canadians as a source for drinking water, irrigation water and for replenishing surface water; therefore they require appropriate management and protection“--p. 1
