Drywell definition

Drywell means an unlined or partially lined underground pit (regardless of geometry) into which drainage from roofs, basement floors, water softeners or other non-wastewater sources is discharged and from which the liquid seeps into the surrounding soil.
Drywell means a well, other than an improved sinkhole or subsurface fluid distribution system, completed above the water table so that its bottom and sides are typically dry except when receiving fluids.
Drywell means a well which is a bored, drilled or driven shaft or hole whose depth is greater than its width and is designed and constructed specifically for the dis- posal of storm water.
