Sec. 5. Water Conflict Resolution.

In the event that a land occupier or person
proposes  to  develop  a  new  point  of  withdrawal,  and
  the  new  point  is a high-capacity well,  the  land  occupier  or  person  shall  notify
the  District before construction of the well begins.   The  District
shall  in  turn  notify  other  local
units  of  government  with  water  systems  who  may  be  impacted  by
the  proposed  withdrawal.   The  District  shall  then  review  with
the  assistance  of  the  Illinois  State  Water  Survey  and the State
Geological Survey  the  proposed
point  of  withdrawal's  effect  upon  other  users  of  the  water.
The review shall be completed within 30 days of receipt of the notice.
The  findings  of  such  reviews  shall  be  made  public.
