A. The rules, regulations, standards, and methods stated herein apply to water wells that are drilled, bored, dug, augered, or driven. They are designed to provide for the restoration, as nearly as possible, of those subsurface and surface conditions that existed prior to drilling, boring, digging, or augering activities and for the installing of a well, taking into account any changes that may have occurred as a result of "natural stresses." The purpose of these regulations is to prevent contamination of aquifers by surface waters and the interchange of water between aquifers.
