A. Releases. No person shall discharge or permit the discharge of any regulated substances or petroleum products, whether treated or untreated, to soils, air, groundwater, or surface water in any recharge area or protection zone, that may have a deleterious effect upon the groundwater in the city of Midvale, unless the release is in compliance with federal, state, and local regulations.

B. Prohibitions and Restrictions. Table 1 (codified in Section 13.06.120) is a summary matrix of potential contamination sources and their prohibited, permitted, or conditional use in the protection zones referenced in Section 13.06.030(B).

C. Review of Development Plans. All development plans that lie within the primary recharge area shall be reviewed by a registered geologist who has demonstrated expertise in the assessment of recharge rates. Any development that will result in a loss of the beneficial use of groundwater or that may have an adverse or negative effect upon local groundwater quality shall be rejected. Plans that are rejected may be revised by the developer and resubmitted to the city of Midvale for subsequent review by a registered geologist. Developments that do not lie within either the primary or secondary recharge area may proceed with the development plan processing requirements of the city of Midvale. (Ord. 2-17-98 § 5)
