Direct Implementation
Term · Environment · MLC-T-ENV-008047
1. The oversight/implementation of a UIC program by an EPA Regional office. EPA assumes DI responsibilities for the UIC Program if a state, tribe, or territory has not obtained primacy.
2. Direct Implementation (DI) States are those in which U.S. EPA administers the UIC program. Because a State may apply for primacy for one or more class of UIC wells, primacy may be partial or whole. In Region 5, U.S. EPA administers the UIC program as summarized in this table http://www.epa.gov/region5/water/uic/uicpartners.htm#primacy_table. In addition, the Region 5 UIC Program directly implements federal UIC regulations on Indian lands.
