Protective Aspects of Class I Hazardous Waste Disposal Wells
This video discusses the use of disposal wells and the monitoring conducted to verify the suitability of the well for continued injection of waste. Monitoring is of two types: continuous and periodic. Continuous monitoring provides data regarding how the well is operated, and is used to document operational changes that could signal any change in the well condition. Periodic monitoring is used to validate the continuous monitoring, and to more thoroughly investigate well and disposal reservoir conditions to verify waste containment.
