SPS 385.60(4)(c)3.a.a. The water level in the observation pipe shall be recorded after completion of the observation pipe installation and 7 days later.
SPS 385.60(4)(c)3.b. b. The highest of the 2 water levels shall be used to complete the hydrograph procedure.
SPS 385.60(4)(c)4. 4. The permanent USGS groundwater elevation well or wells as assigned by the governmental unit or department shall be read within 24 hours of establishing the actual free water elevation at the site.
SPS 385.60(4)(c)5. 5. The hydrograph procedure shall be completed and the results shall be submitted for review to the governmental unit having jurisdiction in a format specified by the department.

SPS 385.60(4)(d)3. 3. The hydrograph procedure shall be completed and the results shall be submitted for review to the governmental unit having jurisdiction in a format specified by the department.
SPS 385.60 Note Note: The Department forms required in this chapter are available for a nominal fee at telephone 800-DOC-SALE or 411 (Telecommunications Relay) or at docsales@doa.state.wi.us, or at no charge at the Department's Web site at http://dsps.wi.gov through links to Division of Industry Services forms.
SPS 385.60(4)(e) (e) The governmental unit or the department may request more than one USGS groundwater well or other wells assigned by the governmental unit or the department be used to complete the hydrograph procedure.
SPS 385.60(4)(f) (f) The governmental unit or the department may reject or suspend use of the hydrograph procedure when erratic groundwater tables are present due to recent, significant recharge events.
SPS 385.60(5) (5)Artificially controlled navigable waters determination.
SPS 385.60(5)(a)(a) If the groundwater elevation at a site is influenced by the artificial control of navigable waters by a recognized management entity, all of the following conditions shall be addressed:
SPS 385.60(5)(a)1. 1. If loamy sand or coarser soil textures prevail at a site, the groundwater elevation at the site shall be compared to the current and highest controlled navigable water elevation.
SPS 385.60(5)(a)2. 2. The highest normal groundwater elevation at such sites shall be the higher of either the observed elevation or an adjusted elevation based on the controlled water.
SPS 385.60(5)(b) (b) An artificially controlled navigable waters determination report shall be prepared and submitted for review to the governmental unit having jurisdiction upon completion of the determination and associated report.
SPS 385.60(6) (6)Soil saturation observation pipe removal. The following requirements shall apply to all groundwater elevation observation pipes installed pursuant to this section:
SPS 385.60(6)(a) (a) Removal timeline. Unless specifically approved by the governmental unit or department, all groundwater elevation observation pipes shall be removed within 60 days after the completion of soil saturation determination.
SPS 385.60(6)(b) (b) Contamination conduit. Any groundwater elevation observation pipe found by the department or governmental unit to be acting as a conduit for groundwater contamination shall be ordered removed immediately.
SPS 385.60(7) (7)Verification.
SPS 385.60(7)(a)(a) Verification.
SPS 385.60(7)(a)1.1. The governmental unit or department may request verification of soil saturation determinations pursuant to s. SPS 385.50 (2), and proper observation pipe installation pursuant to this section.
SPS 385.60(7)(a)2. 2. The governmental unit or the department may require any groundwater elevation observation pipe deemed by the governmental unit or the department to be in poor contact with the surrounding soil to be reinstalled pursuant to this section.
SPS 385.60(7)(b) (b) On-site visits.
SPS 385.60(7)(b)1.1. The governmental unit or department may visit sites during soil saturation determination periods or at other reasonable times to determine the accuracy of data.
SPS 385.60(7)(b)2. 2. A written record of on-site visits in subd. 1. shall be maintained by the agency conducting the visits.
