17-50-102. Purpose.
(a) In that there is an ever-increasing demand for water in this state necessitating the construction of water wells, it is imperative that the general health, safety, and welfare be protected by providing a means for the proper development of the natural resource of underground water in an orderly, sanitary, reasonable, and safe manner, without waste, so that sufficient potable supplies for the continued economic growth of our state may be assured. To that end it is essential that persons engaged in water well drilling cooperate with the State of Arkansas in the development of ground water resources.
(b) In that there is an ever-increasing demand for water in this state necessitating the construction of water wells and pump installation, it is imperative that the general health, safety, and welfare be protected by providing the Commission on Water Well Construction with jurisdiction over pump installation, which is an inherent part of water well construction. The regulation of pump installation and installers is essential to fulfill the intent of this chapter.
