DEC Well Database
The heart of the searchable on-line database is the ability to locate and track wells regulated under Article 23 of the Environmental Conservation Law, mainly oil, gas, solution salt mining and underground gas storage wells. In addition, the law also regulates brine disposal, stratigraphic and geothermal wells greater than 500 feet deep.
