In this peer review process, member states of the Underground Injection Practices Council (UIPC), the USEPA and the USDOE have attempted to look at the major ground water protection efforts of state regulatory agencies, their underground injection control (UIC) programs. It is the belief of the UIPC that the national UIC program represents one of the oldest, largest and perhaps one of the most effective environmental programs to protect our nation's Underground Sources of Drinking Water (USDWs). These programs have been in place for many years. During that time our national commitment to ground water protection and the available technologies to protect it have changed extensively. In light of these changed commitments and new technologies, the UIPC set out to look at the California UIC program. Topics/processes addressed in this report include: permitting, mechanical integrity testing, compliance, plugging and abandonment, inventory/data management, public outreach, and personnel qualifications.
