The purpose of these Regulations is to protect the beneficial use of the Guam’s underground and surface water resources in the interest of the people of Guam and for the public welfare by prescribing rules and procedures governing the development and operation of water supply wells and surface water supply wells. The Regulations require permits for well drilling and operation of wells and provide rules relative to drilling, operation, maintenance, rehabilitation and discontinuation of wells. They prescribe environmental impact assessment guidelines for well drilling operations. One provision also concerns the control of developments regarding use of surface waters.
