· OSE: Well-tagging program from ~Fall 2018 for new production wells (e.g., domestic, livestock, irrigation, commercial-use wells). Non-production wells are not tagged, e.g., monitoring wells, piezometers, etc. Tags are alpha-numeric and entered into WATERS. Tag is either a barcode or QR code on the tag, but the agency does not have a way to use them yet. The tags are provided for by a Department of Health grant.
