All of the following guidelines are provided by a state's Department of Health for well location EXCEPT?

The guideline specifying that a well must not be located where the water table is less than 10 feet below the surface is inaccurate for the context of what is typically provided by a state's Department of Health regarding well location. Generally, health departments focus on ensuring that wells are safe and accessible but do not dictate a specific requirement for the water table's depth as a universal guideline. Instead, they emphasize more practical considerations like the distance from potential contaminants (like septic systems), maintenance accessibility, and flooding risks. Ensuring these conditions helps protect the water quality and ensures the well can be maintained properly over time.
