Submersible Well Pumps and Water ContaminationA five-year investigation by the Department

of Natural Resources and Department ofHealth and Family Services, Division of Healthhas determined that certain submersible pumpsused to draw water from wells may leak con-taminants into drinking water and may pose ahealth risk.

Contaminants leaked from these pumpscome from either mineral oil contained inpump motors or from a dielectric fluid used inthe pump motor’s capacitor. “Non-food-grade” mineral oils used in some submersiblepump motors contained polyaromatic hydro-carbons and other fuel-like compounds. Thedielectric fluid in capacitors used in certainpump motors manufactured before 1979 wasmade of polychlorinated biphenyls, or PCBs.

Depending on its size, a motor may containfrom one-half liter to more than 20 liters of oil.Capacitors may contain up to five ounces ofPCBs. Small amounts of these substancesgradually leak out of submersible well pumpmotors during normal wear-and-tear. Largeramounts may leak into well water when thepump suddenly fails due to lightning strikes,electrical failures or shorts.

The World Health Organization, Interna-tional Agency for Cancer Research and theOccupational Health and Safety Administrationclassify certain non-foodgrade mineral oils ashuman carcinogens. PCBs are classified asprobable human carcinogens by the U.S. Envi-ronmental Protection Agency. EPA has estab-lished a maximum contaminant level of 0.5parts per billion PCBs in drinking water.

Human exposure to non-food-grade sub-mersible pump motor oils or to PCBs fromPCB-filled capacitors may occur when a persondrinks water from these wells. Exposure mayalso occur when contaminated water is used forcooking, showering or bathing or when con-taminated water vapor is inhaled after it isreleased from steam heat radiators, dish orclothes washers, humidifiers, vaporizers orshowerheads.

The Wisconsin Division of Health recommendsthat as a health precaution consumers should:

avoid exposure to well water contaminatedwith submersible pump oils not classified as“food grade” by the U.S. Food and DrugAdministration or U.S. Department ofAgriculture; andavoid exposure to and consumption of watercontaining PCBs until the PCBs have beeneliminated from the water supply, as con-firmed by laboratory analysis.In 1992, the Department of Natural Re-

sources estimated that between 100,000 and200,000 of Wisconsin’s 800,000 wells maycontain submersible pump motors filled withoil. Some of these pumps may contain non-toxic, food-grade oil, while others do not. In1989, an estimated 10,000 to 15,000 oil-filledmotors contained capacitors filled with PCBs.More accurate estimates are not available atthis time.

Typically, submersible pumps are used forresidential wells, rural restaurants, taverns,motels, grocery stores, child care facilities andhealth care facilities. Larger motors are used inwell-water systems serving some subdevelop-ments, condominiums, hotels and motels,shopping malls, hospitals, commercial estab-lishments, schools, industrial facilities, camp-grounds and private and public water utilities.

To guard against potential exposure tosubmersible pump motor oil or capacitor fluidswell owners can:

Determine the manufacturer and modelnumber of their submersible well pump,then contact a state-licensed well driller,pump installer or the DNR to learn whetherthe pump motor is likely to contain non-food-grade mineral oils, a PCB filled capaci-tor or both.Replace an oil filled submersible pumpmotor with a water or propylene glycolfilled submersible pump motor or with anabove ground pump unit if it can be deter-mined, or if it is suspected, that the pump islikely filled with non-food-grade oil. Whena contaminated pump is replaced, wellowners should clean the well and plumbingsystem according to the protocol in Appen-dix C of this document.Replace the pump, clean the well andplumbing system, and take drinking watersamples for testing by a certified privatewater testing lab if they know or suspect thepump has a capacitor containing PCBs. Donot use the well if a test Indicates PCBs arepresent above state or federal drinking waterstandards.

A Wisconsin-licensed pump installer canadvise well owners on leak detection, pumpreplacement, water supply system cleanup andproper disposal of contaminated pumps.

The approximate cost of replacing a domes-tic submersible pump ranges from $600 to$1,200. An accompanying cleanup of the welland/or plumbing system will add to this cost.

Appendices A and B list pump types andmodels which the Department of NaturalResources has determined may contain non-food-grade oils or capacitors filled with PCBs.The list is not complete, due to the difficulty offinding and confirming information on pumpsfrom the manufacturers. The information onPCBs reflects pumps and motors manufacturedafter 1960.

A list of state-certified laboratories that cantest drinking water samples for the presence ofPCBs is included in Appendix D of this docu-ment. Well owners also may contact pumpmanufacturers directly for more information.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration(FDA) has approved propylene glycol andcertain types of mineral oil for occasional con-tact with or for addition to food products.These oils are commonly referred to as “food-grade mineral oils.”

The Department of Natural Resources hasdetermined that certain submersible pumpmotors were filled with oil that did not meetFDA requirements for occasional food contact orfor addition to food products. These “non-foodgrade” oils are commonly referred to as:transformer oil, heat transfer fluid, refrigeratorcompressor oil, electrical insulating oils, hy-draulic oil, cable oil, spindle oil, agriculturalspray oil, turbine oil, and machine or cutting oil.

During a study of a substantial volume ofliterature, staff from the Department of NaturalResources and Department of Health andFamily Services (DHFS) found references indi-cating that some non-food-grade oils used insubmersible pump motors were lightnaphthenic distillates containing polyaromatichydrocarbons and long chain aliphatics.

Non-Food-Grade Mineral Oils areKnown Carcinogens

Some of these oils have a boiling point, pourpoint, viscosity and other characteristics that areconsistent with refined oils, which have beendocumented to cause or promote cancer inhumans and animals. The World Health Orga-nization (WHO), International Agency forResearch on Cancer (IARC) and the Occupa-tional Health and Safety Administration(OSHA) classify certain nonfood-grade mineraloils as human carcinogens.

Though the cancer impacts of these oilsusually receive the most publicity, other effectssuch as reproductive damage, immune systemsuppression, respiratory distress and otherorgan damage have been documented in ani-mals and humans exposed to mineral oils.

The Wisconsin Department of Health andFamily Services recommends “... that expo-sure to well water contaminated with sub-mersible pump oils not classified as food-grade by the Food and Drug Administrationor Department of Agriculture be avoided.Efforts should be made to minimize thelikelihood of such exposures occurring.”

Polychlorinated BiphenylsThe U.S. Environmental Protection Agency

(EPA) has designated PCBs as probable humancarcinogens. PCBs were banned in 1978 fromproduction or use in the United States. EPA hasestablished a maximum contaminant level(MCL) of 0.5 parts per billion (ppb) for PCBs indrinking water. If PCB contamination is de-tected in drinking water, people should notdrink the contaminated water or use it forshowering, bathing, washing or preparing fooduntil the PCBs have been eliminated from thewater supply system. Elimination of PCB froma water supply system must be confirmed bylaboratory analysis.

Potential Exposure can be MinimizedPotential exposure to non-food-grade oil

can be minimized or prevented by replacingan oil-filled submersible pump motor with awater or propylene glycol filled submersiblepump motor or with an above ground pumpunit. Clean the well and plumbing systemaccording to the protocol in Appendix C ofthis document.

Oil or PCBs that are released from submers-ible pumps into wells are groundwater con-taminants analogous to fuel oil and otherpetroleum products.

Food-Grade vs. Non-Food-Grade Mineral Oils

Submersible water well pumps aredriven by electric motors that are designedto operate under water. There are two basicmotor designs for underwater operation.

One design uses special insulation mate-rials on the electrical components of themotor, and the motor housing is filled withclean water or with an antifreeze materialcalled propylene glycol. Water or propyleneglycol prevents the entry of dirty or sandladen well water into the motor housing andbearings, preventing premature pumpmotor or bearing failure.

The second design uses oil in the motorhousing to prevent the entry of well waterinto the motor. If water were to enter intothe bearings or into the electrical compo-nents, the motor eventually would fail.

An electrical device called a capacitorhelps to get a motor started. The capacitorcan be located within the motor housing orit can be located in a control panel that islocated out of the well and usually ina building.

Before 1979, most capacitors containedPolychlorinated Biphenyl (PCB) dielectricfluid. In 1986 and again in 1989, the Depart-ment of Natural Resources published newsreleases and technical information on thesubject of PCB contamination of wellsand drinking water from submersiblepump motors.

To understand how one might be exposed tooils or PCBs in drinking water, it is importantto understand how these materials escape fromthe motor into the well water.

OilOn most submersible motors, a mechanical,

rotating seal is used to keep the oil inside themotor housing and to keep water out. Springs,diaphragms, centrifugal force and the relativedensity of the oil are used to make sure that thepressure of the oil inside the motor is slightlyhigher than the pressure of the water surround-ing the motor.

This prevents the water from entering themotor under normal operating conditions, andallows small amounts of oil to seep across theface of the seal to provide lubrication to theseal. Without lubrication, the seal would fail.As a motor continues to function, the bearings,seals and other moving components wear,allowing oil to escape through the seal inincreasing quantities.

Well Water ContaminationIn addition, corrosion of the motor casing,

lightning strikes, electrical failures like shorts inthe motor, or other types of catastrophic fail-ures allow substantial quantities of oil to escapefrom the motor. Escaped oil mixes with wellwater and is drawn into the pump intake,ending up in the water supply system.

PCBsPCBs that are on the surface of the capacitor

body during pump motor assembly mix withthe oil contained in the motor housing. Fur-ther, PCBs that migrate from inside the capaci-tor to the oil in the motor housing also mixwith the oil. PCBs are then released concur-rently with the oil from the motor housing aspreviously described.

Human exposure to these contaminants mayoccur when a person 1) drinks contaminatedwater (oral exposure), 2) inhales contaminatedwater vapor released from steam heat radia-tors, cooking, dish or clothes washers, humidi-fiers, vaporizers or showerheads (respiratoryexposure) and 3) showers or bathes (dermal orskin exposure). The oils of concern form stableemulsions — or are suspended in miniaturedroplets in a fairly stable state — in water or airand are consequently difficult to see or feel.

OilScientific studies have shown that when

certain components of mineral oil are appliedto animal skin (epidermis), within minutesmeasurable quantities of some of the com-pounds can be found in internal organs. Otherscientific studies have shown that mineral oilsare not effectively expelled from the lungs.Consequently, mineral oil can remain in thelungs for a longer period of time than otherforeign materials.

A mixture of oil and water will be deliveredat the tap from a contaminated water supply.The oil may not be visible in the water becauseit may be in an emulsion with the water. De-pending on the type and concentration of oil, aperson may or may not notice a petroleumodor.

PCBsPCBs from submersible pump motor capaci-

tors may mix with the oil contained in themotor housing. Exposure to PCBs occurs whenoil containing PCBs leaks into the water supplysystem.

Both PCBs and mineral oils are found almosteverywhere in the environment. However, riskof exposure associated with oil or PCBs in wellwater can be substantially reduced by remov-ing the submersible pump motor and cleaningthe well and plumbing system to remove anyremaining contaminants.

Magnitude of the Problem in WisconsinOil-filled sub-

mersible motorsare used onpumps thatserve a varietyof facilities.Smaller unitsare typicallyused for residentialwells, rural restau-rants, taverns, motels,grocery stores, child carefacilities and health carefacilities. Larger units areused for subdevelopment water systems,condominiums, hotels/motels, shopping malls,hospitals, commercial establishments, schools,industrial facilities, campgrounds, private andpublic water utilities.

OilIn 1992, of approximately 800,000 wells in

Wisconsin, the DNR estimated that over100,000 wells may contain submersible pumpmotors that are filled with oil.

Some of those submersible motors containfood-grade oil as classified by the FDA, whileothers contain varying grades of oil that do notmeet the FDA requirements for a food-gradeclassification. Available information does notallow an accurate estimate of the number ofmotors containing each type of oil. Dependingon the size of the motor, each motor maycontain from 1/2 liter to about 20 liters of oil.

PCBsIn 1989 the DNR estimated that approxi-

mately 10,000 to 20,000 of the oil filled motorscontained an electrical component called acapacitor, which is filled with PCBs.

A list of submersible motors that are knownto contain oil is included in Appendix A of thisdocument. In an attempt to identify whichsubmersible motors are likely to contain FDAapproved food-grade oil and which are notlikely to contain FDA approved food-grade oil,the DNR has relied on responses from pumpmanufacturers and laboratory test results.

There are likely other submersible pumpbrands that used oil-filled motors. Conse-quently, unless a well owner knows for certainthat their submersible pump motor containsFDA approved food-grade oil, it would beprudent to assume the oil is non-food-grade.Your Wisconsin licensed pump installer or welldriller may be able to assist you in determiningwhich kind of pump you have. The U.S. Foodand Drug Administration has an establishedanalytical method for determining whether anoil meets food-grade criteria.

Identifying Pump Motors with PCB-filled Capacitors

Appendix B of this document provides a listof submersible pump motors known to containPCBs. Pumps are identified by brand, modeland serial number when available.

A list of laboratories certified to conductPCB analysis is contained in Appendix D of thisdocument. The cost of analysis varies for eachlaboratory. Some laboratories analyze watersamples, some analyze oil samples and someanalyze both water and oil samples for PCBs.

There is currently no appropriate field testfor analyzing oil.

Replacing Pumps and Cleaning WaterSupply Systems

A Wisconsin licensed pump installer canassist you with the pump replacement andwater supply system cleanup. Depending onthe well and pump size, the cost for a licensedperson to replace a domestic submersible pumpis estimated to be between $600.00 and$1200.00. Costs associated with cleaning a welland plumbing system will vary and are inaddition to pump replacement costs.

Information obtained by the Departmentindicates that by the beginning of 1992, all themanufacturers of small, domestic submersiblewater supply pumps converted to water orpropylene glycol filled motor technology.Therefore, new small domestic submersiblepump motors are not likely to contain oil.

Instructions for identifying and cleaningcontaminated water supply systems are con-tained in Appendix C of this document.

The DNR recommends that submersiblepump owners who wish to replace their pumpsemploy licensed pump installers to replacepumps, clean water supply systems and prop-erly dispose of contaminated pumps. Thefollowing instructions and those in Appendix Capply to anyone who attempts water supplysystem cleanup and pump disposal.

Handling and Disposing of SubmersiblePump Motors

Residential water supply pumps that arelikely to contain non-food-grade oil or PCBsshould be handled with care. Avoid directcontact with pumps and pump fluids. Userubber or plastic (disposable) gloves, protectiveouter clothing and safety glasses. Use a clayabsorbent such as cat litter, oil dry or bentoniteto soak up spilled oil.

Oil-filled submersible pump motors that donot contain PCBs can be salvaged and recycledor placed with household waste for disposal.

Pumps suspected of containing PCBs requirespecial encapsulation and disposal precautions.The objectives are to prevent inadvertentexposure of people to, or contamination ofprivate property with, PCBs and to preventpossible migration of PCBs to soil or ground-water. Make sure you review the manufactur-ers’ information concerning model and serialnumbers to determine if the motor containsPCBs.

After a pump suspected of containing PCBshas been removed from a well, one of thefollowing or comparable encapsulation optionsshould be used to reduce the likelihood thatPCBs will contaminate private property orvehicles, or leak from the pump motor into thesoil, groundwater, or the landfill:

Option 1 - Cap one end of a section of metal orPVC pipe, place the pump (motor)inside, fill the remaining space inthe pipe with a clay absorbent (kittylitter) and seal the open end with acap.

Option 2 - Wrap the pump (motor) in heavyplastic (10 mil), fold the ends of theplastic over the ends of the pump(motor), tape the plastic from end toend with heavy duty plastic wrap-ping tape, place the wrapped pumpin a box, fill the remainder of thebox with absorbent material (kittylitter) and tape the box closed withheavy duty wrapping tape.

Option 3 - Follow the instructions for option 2except substitute an appropriatelysized disposal bag, such as a heavyduty asbestos disposal bag, for theplastic wrap. A shipping box from anew pump may be used to cover thebag. Void spaces in the box shouldbe filled with absorbent material.

Submersible pump motors suspected ofcontaining oil or PCBs may be disposed of atDNR licensed, engineered landfills. A list ofthose landfills has been included in Appendix Eof this advisory document.

Pumps Containing PCBs must be Properly EncapsulatedNote that any attempt to salvage materials fromPCB-contaminated pump motors would subjectthe salvager to more stringent transportation anddisposal regulations.

If the pump head has not been contami-nated, it may be removed from the motor,salvaged and recycled. A pump head is con-taminated if there is a film of oil on it when it isremoved from the well.

Pump motors that are packaged in accor-dance with options 1, 2 and 3 may be left withthe well owner (homeowner) for disposal withtheir household refuse. If the pump installertakes the motor from the property, it should bedisposed of at a licensed engineered landfillwithin a short period of time.

Motors should not be accumulated by a welldriller or pump installer. PCBs are regulatedby the Department of Natural Resources.Accumulation of PCB contaminated motors bya pump installer may subject that individual toregulation under PCB management rules.

If the quantity of PCBs requiring disposalexceeds two pounds (approximately 6 pumps),contact a DNR regional solid and hazardouswaste specialist. A list of DNR contacts hasbeen provided in Appendix F of this advisorydocument.

A. 0. Smith - Representatives of this companystate that their records indicate that oilsrecognized as food-grade by the FDA wereused in submersible pump motors. How-ever, they did not provide any supportingdocumentation or copies of their records.

Barnes - Also known as Peabody Barnes, Inc.,this company was acquired by BurksPumps, Inc. Representatives of BurksPumps state that the oils used in Barnessubmersible motors was a paraffinic typeoil. No documentation was provided toindicate whether the oil used in thesesubmersible pump motors was food-grade.Limited analytical data suggests that oilsused in Peabody Barnes submersible motorswere not likely food-grade. MontgomeryWard and Johnston Water Systems usedmotors supplied by Barnes at various times.

Byron Jackson - Currently known as BW/IPInternational, Inc., documentation wasprovided indicating that submersible pumpmotors currently produced by this companycontain food grade oil. Documentationindicating whether oils were food-gradewas not provided for motors producedbefore 1991.

Century - Century Electric Motors was previ-ously a division of Transamerica/Delevall,now known as IMO. Century motors wereused on many different submersible pumpbrands including but not limited toAeromotor, Berkley, Tait, Pumptron, RedJacket, Rapidayton, Webtrol, Flint & Wallingand Teel/Grainger. Century Motors ceasedoperation in 1986 though many of thebrands that used Century motors are stillavailable. Manufacturers who purchasedbrand names associated with CenturyMotors have provided documentationindicating that food-grade oil was used

from 1978 to 1986 and state that oil usedbetween 1962 and 1978 was food gradethough they did not provide sufficientsupporting documentation. Limited analyti-cal data suggests that oil used in at leastsome pre 1978 motors was probably notfood-grade oil.

Exodyne - Exodyne purchased the assets ofMagney Electric Motors, Inc. Documenta-tion was provided indicating that submers-ible pump motors currently produced byExodyne contain food- grade oil. Documen-tation for motors produced by MagneyElectric Motors before 1991 was not avail-able.

F.E. Myers - Documentation provided by F.E.Myers and analytical data confirm that non-food-grade oil has been used in oil-filledsubmersible pump motors manufactured byMyers. Between 1981 and 1983, Myersdiscontinued oil-filled motor production andconverted to water filled motor technology.All Myers submersible motors since 1983 usea water filled design.

Fairbanks Morse - Except for pumps utilizingFranklin water filled motors, all motorscontain oil. Fairbanks Morse has provideddocumentation indicating that food-gradeoil was used in motors manufactured from1978 to 1990. Company representatives statethat “Information available to FairbanksMorse is that from 1969 to 1978 an oil whichwas used was FDA approved and nontoxic.” Documentation provided byFairbanks Morse does not indicate that theoil used from 1969 to 1978 was FDA ap-proved, food-grade material. CompanyRepresentatives also state that “Before 1969,information available to Fairbanks indicatesthat the oil used was a white mineral oilwhich was pharmaceutical-grade and safe

APPENDIX AIdentifying Oil-filled Motors

The following list of oil filled submersible pump motors was compiled from information the De-partment of Natural Resources obtained from the manufacturers, well drillers, pump installers, techni-cal journals, sales literature, scientific literature, field examination and limited analytical analysis. Thelist is not exhaustive. Because of the variability of petroleum products and the motor manufacturingprocess, it is impossible to provide greater accuracy at this time.

It is important to note that in most cases, specific model identification or serial numbers were notprovided making identification of specific motor units difficult.

for human contact.” However, FairbanksMorse provided no supporting documenta-tion or copies of available records.

General Electric - General Electric (GE) indicatedthat they were not going to review theirrecords to determine what types of oil wereused in the various submersible pumpmotors they manufactured. PCBs have beenfound in GE submersible pump motor oil,the presence of which require a non-food-grade classification. General Electric motorswere used on different brands of submers-ible pumps. e.g. Hoosier

Red Jacket - Currently, Red Jacket is a divisionof the Marley Pump Company. Submersiblepump motors manufactured by Red Jacketare water cooled and do not contain oil.However, Century Electric submersiblepump motors were used on 3,000 of the RedJacket pumps nationwide between 1978 and1981. Documentation has been providedindicating that food-grade oil was used inthese motors. See the Century Motor sectionrelative to these motors.

REDA, A Camco Company - REDA was previ-ously a division Of TRW. Representatives ofREDA state that REDA has not manufac-tured a submersible pump for use in potablewater supply wells since 1979. Documenta-tion has been provided indicating that food-grade oil was used in motors designed foruse in potable water supplies from 1965through 1979. REDA has also manufacturedmotors for purposes other than potablewater supply wells that do not contain food-grade oil. They state that they do not knowwhether some of these motors may havebeen installed in potable water supply wells.Prior to 1965, REDA motors contained non-food-grade oil. REDA motors were suppliedto various manufacturers during the 1950sincluding Clayton-Mark, Dempster, Duro,Flint and Walling, Rapidayton, Red Jacket,Rom and Woodmansey.

STA-RITE - Documentation was provided indi-cating that food-grade oils were used insubmersible pump motors manufacturedbetween 1961 and 1966 and from 1975through 1991. Representatives of STA-RITEstate that food grade oils were always usedin submersible motors but did not providesufficient confirmational documentation formotors manufactured prior to 1961 andbetween 1966 and 1975. However, limitedanalytical data suggests that food-grade oilwas used. STA-RITE also supplied motorsto Sears, Roebuck and Company.

APPENDIX BSubmersible Pump Units that are Known to Contain PCBs

The following manufacturer’s models and serial numbers have been compiled and updated fromliterature searches and information supplied by pump installers and pump manufacturers. Thisinformation represents the best descriptions currently available.

Please be aware that the list is not complete with regard to all manufacturers and brand names andthe information has not been confirmed in all cases. Although the list is the best available, its accuracycannot be guaranteed.

The available information is for pumps manufactured after 1960. Some brands contained PCBsprior to 1960 but did not contain PCBs after 1960.

The following units are those identified as sources of PCB contamination in well water:

Determining If a Water System is ContaminatedThe only way to know for certain whether a

water supply system is contaminated is toobserve oil in the well or plumbing system orto have an oil or water sample from the well orplumbing system analyzed for PCBs. However,there are ways to be reasonably certain ofcontamination without actually having asample analyzed. The following procedure willallow an individual to determine if watersystem contamination is likely:

1. If a pump has been recently removed fromor replaced in your well and the pump thatwas removed looks or feels oily, oil hasleaked into the well water, or, there may bean iron bacteria infestation. The water can betested for iron bacteria to help determine ifthe oily texture results from oil or from ironbacteria.

2. Appendix B describes the submersiblepumps that are known or suspected ofcontaining PCBs. Appendix A describes thesubmersible pumps that are known orsuspected of containing mineral oil andfurther indicates the current level of knowl-edge as to whether the oil is a FDA approvedfood-grade oil, non-food-grade oil or un-known. Try to determine if your pump is onone or both lists, Note whether the pump ison the PCB list, the oil-filled list and whetheror not FDA approved food-grade oil wasused. Also try to determine if one of thesuspect pump units has ever been in the wellor if an older pump has ever been replaced.If you can find free oil product in your wellor plumbing system, that may indicate that asubmersible pump has leaked at some pointin time.

3. Check the top of the water in your toilettanks for an oily film. An oily film mayindicate pump motor oil leakage. Proceedwith the following steps for confirmationwhether you find oil here or not.

4. Obtain a clean, clear glass container. If yourhot water heater has a pressure relief valveon the top of the tank, manually open thevalve and catch a sample of the water fromthe overflow pipe in the clear, glass container.BE CAREFUL! THE WATER IS HOT.

Let the water settle for 30 minutes. If oil ispresent in the hot water it may float to thesurface as evidenced by an oily film as thewater cools. The glass may be placed in arefrigerator to accelerate the process. If youdo not see oil, proceed with the followingsteps for further confirmation.

5. Find the electrical control panel and turn offthe electricity supplied to the pump. Thereshould be a valve located on a pipe enteringor leaving the water pressure tank near thebottom of the tank. Drain the pressure tanktaking note of any unusual material thatmay come out of it. Since oil floats on top ofthe water, it will likely be the last thing outof the tank. Try to obtain a sample of any oilin the clear glass container. If you do notsee or feel oil, proceed to the next step.Any time that the well or plumbingsystem is opened or entered, conduct astandard chlorination procedure andtake a water sample for bacterialanalysis to ensure an uncontami-nated system.

To reduce the risks of electricalshock and other hazards and toensure that the proper tools areavailable, only a licensed pumpinstaller should carry out theremainder of these instructions.6. Obtain or construct a top bailer.

A top bailer is easily con-structed from 2 feet of 1 inchsteel pipe threaded on one end,a pipe cap, and a length ofclean stout-type cable. Drill a1/2 inch hole through the pipewall on the end opposite thethreading.Make sure that any cutting oilused to form the pipe and capthreads has been thoroughlycleaned off the bailer materials.Thread the cap tightly to thethreaded end of the pipe.Fasten the cable securelythrough the 1/2 inch hole at theother end of the pipe.

APPENDIX C

14

Make sure that the cable is long enough toallow you to lower the pipe to the waterlevel. Tie the free end of the cable securelyto a stationary object so that if you loosecontrol of the cable, you will still be able toretrieve the bailer.Remove the well cap. Lower the bailerslowly into the well until you hear it start tofill. A “ploop, ploop, ploop” sound will letyou know that the bailer is filling. It isimportant to lower the bailer slowly becauseyou want to stop lowering the instant youhear it start to fill. Immediately, before thebailer has time to fill completely, retrieve thebailer.Empty the contents into the clear glasscontainer and look for oil. If you observe oil,the bailer can be used to bail any remainingfree oil product from the top of the watercolumn in the well.Note: this method will not work if a spool

pitless adapter is used in the well. The assis-tance of a Wisconsin Licensed Pump Installerwith the proper equipment to remove thepitless adapter will be required.

Cleaning and Chlorinatingthe Water System

After having determined that a well needsto be cleaned, and assuming that the old pumphas been removed from the well, the followingprocedure can be used to clean and disinfectthe well and plumbing system:

1. Make sure that all of the free oil product hasbeen purged from the top of the watercolumn in the well and from the plumbingsystem. Pay particular attention to thepressure tank, hot water heater, heatingsystem boiler if applicable, water treatmentunits such as filters and water softeners,toilet tanks and anti hammer chambersusually located near faucets. If free oilproduct remains in the system, the remain-der of the cleaning procedure is not likelyto succeed.

2. Calculate the volume of water in the well.For each 100 gallons of well water volume,mix about 8 ounces of liquid dish washingdetergent (not automatic dishwasher deter-gent) in hot water in a 5 gallon bucket. Thisensures that the soap is in solution before itis introduced into the well. Remove thewell cap and pour the soapy solution intothe well.

3. Thoroughly mix the soap with the water inthe well by running a surge block up anddown the borehole.

4. Install the new pump and fill the plumbingsystem with soapy water solution.

5. Add lengths of discharge (drop) pipe to thepump, to place the pump near the bottom ofthe borehole. Attach a length of hose to thetop of the discharge pipe and route thedischarge to an appropriate location.

6. Pump the soapy water from the well until itis clear of soap, raise the pump 5 feet andrepeat pumping until the water is clear ofsoap. Continue repeating this procedure asyou raise the pump in 5 foot incrementsuntil the pump reaches the surface of thewater column. You will need to removelengths of drop pipe as appropriate andreconnect the discharge hose to dischargethe soapy water to an appropriate location.

7. Soapy water from the discharge hose may beused to wash down the inside of the casing.

CAUTION: Be careful not to run the water so fastas to deplete the water in the well and run thepump dry. This can be accomplished bymonitoring the well water level and adjusting theflow from the discharge accordingly.

8. Reinstall the new pump.9. Pump fresh water through the plumbing

system to purge the soapy water and anycontaminants from the plumbing system.

10.Don’t forget to take a water sample and get achemical analysis to confirm whether PCBhas been successfully removed from the welland plumbing system.

15

Do not discharge soapy, contaminatedwater within 100 feet of any body of water,drainage way, wetland or in an area wherechildren may play.

Disposal options for soapy water are listedin order of preference below.

1. If a sewer line connected to a wastewatertreatment plant serves the residence, all ofthe soapy water solution should be allowedto drain to the normal sewer line. Let thewater discharge until all the soap is purgedfrom the system. You should obtain priorapproval from the wastewater treatmentplant to discharge the soapy water totheir facility.

2. If a tank truck is available, the soapy watermay be discharged to the tanker andtransported to a local wastewater treatmentplant. You should obtain prior approvalfrom the wastewater treatment plant todischarge the soapy water to their facility.The soapy water should be discharged tothe tanker until the system is purged ofsoap. Several tank loads may be needed.

3. Although not the preferred option, thesoapy solution may be discharged to aseptic system. However, a few precautionsare warranted. The amount of water thatwill be pumped may hydraulically over-load the septic system, which may causesewage to back-up into the residence or thesewage may seep up through the groundsurface. This will be temporary, but shouldbe avoided if possible. If the privatesewage disposal system utilizes an effluentpump to pump wastewater to the drainagefield such as in a mound or a pressuredistribution system, the sewage pumpsmay not be able to accommodate thecontinuous flow of soapy water. Therefore,you will have to reduce the flow of soapywater accordingly.

Soapy Water Disposal4. When no other option is available, the soapy

water solution may be discharged through alawn type sprinkler to an area where peopleare unlikely to spend a lot of time. Examplesinclude: nearby woods orvacant acreage owned bythe well owner.After the soapy water

has been discharged,conduct a normal chlori-nation on the water sup-ply system to preventbacterial contamination.
