§ 9.80.080. Extension of casing above surface—Furnishing records and samples of earth required.

The casing of every well shall extend one foot above the surface of the ground at the location of the well, or, if in the judgment of the superintendent greater extension is required to prevent the possible contamination and pollution of the city's water supply, the casing shall extend such distance above the surface of the ground as in his judgment is necessary to effect such purpose. The owner of the well shall furnish to the superintendent a complete log during the construction of the well, which shall record the top and bottom of each change in formation and shall also furnish, if required by him, the superintendent, samples of the material at each change in formation, these samples to be enclosed in covered glass containers and plainly labelled with the depth at top and bottom of the section of the well from which they were taken, and should any stratum be of greater thickness than ten feet samples shall be taken and preserved of such section as each ten feet or fraction thereof in the manner herein described.
