Notice of Intent Forms

REQUIREMENTS effective January 19, 2018
Prior to filing a Notice of Intent (NOI) with us, check with your local permitting agency to ensure you are drilling in compliance with the requirements. Some areas may require additional fees or a property owner to connect to a public water supplier.

1. Fill out the form using the appropriate link below.
2. Provide a valid e-mail address for us to send your validation.
3. As soon as Ecology receives your form, we will send your validation to the email address you provided.
4. Environmental Investigation wells and Geotechnical Soil Borings are decommissioned immediately after construction; we recently changed the way our forms page works to take this into account. You will now get two PDFs when you complete your Notice of Intent - one for the construction and one for the decommissioning. You no longer need to fill out two forms with the same information, just fill out your Notice of Intent to construct and we'll take care of the rest.
