The area of review for an aquifer recharge (AR) project is the area determined by a radius of at least 1/2 mile from each proposed AR injection well. In the application for authorization, the applicant shall provide information on the activities within the area of review, including the following factors and any adverse interactions between the factors and the AR project:
  (1) locations of:
    (A) all artificial penetrations that penetrate the injection interval, including but not limited to: water wells and abandoned water wells from commission well files or groundwater district files; oil and gas wells and saltwater injection wells from the Railroad Commission of Texas files; and waste disposal wells/other injection wells from the commission disposal well files; and
    (B) springs, quarries, and any other bodies of water, surface or subsurface features that connect to the injection interval;
  (2) completion and construction information, where available, for identified artificial penetrations;
  (3) site-specific, significant geologic features, such as faults and fractures;
  (4) land surface elevations for projects used to mitigate subsidence;
  (5) land use in the drainage basin and geographic extent of the drainage basin for projects using improved sinkholes and caves; and
  (6) all information required for the consideration of an AR injection well under §331.267(a) of this title (relating to Additional Requirements).
