Class V storm water drainage wells manage surface water runoff (rainwater or snow melt) by placing it below the ground surface. They are typically shallow disposal systems designed to infiltrate storm water runoff below the ground surface. A Class V well by definition is any bored, drilled, or driven shaft, or dug hole that is deeper than its widest surface dimension, or an improved sinkhole, or a subsurface fluid distribution system (an infiltration system with piping to enhance infiltration capabilities).
Construction and operation of a Class V stormwater drainage well requires a US EPA permit, and potentially additional State and local permits.
