Terms Used In Kansas Statutes 82a-1218
- Injunction: An order of the court prohibiting (or compelling) the performance of a specific act to prevent irreparable damage or injury.
- Secretary: means the secretary of health and environment. See Kansas Statutes 82a-1203
- Temporary restraining order: Prohibits a person from an action that is likely to cause irreparable harm. This differs from an injunction in that it may be granted immediately, without notice to the opposing party, and without a hearing. It is intended to last only until a hearing can be held.
- well point: means any driven well which is 25 feet or less in depth and is constructed by manually driving into the ground a drive point fitted to the lower end of tightly connected sections of pipe that are 2 inches or less in diameter. See Kansas Statutes 82a-1203
(a) The provisions of Kan. Stat. Ann. §§ 82a-1216 and 82a-1217 shall not apply with respect to any sand point or well point which is used for domestic purposes, or the reconstruction, replacement or treatment thereof, and which has not been abandoned, until the secretary adopts minimum standards for the construction, reconstruction, treatment and plugging of sand points or well points, except that a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction or permanent injunction may be obtained pursuant to Kan. Stat. Ann. § 82a-1217 if a health hazard is shown to exist or to be imminent.
