I am working on a sewer rehabilitation project using CIPP in a wellhead protection area. It has become a concern that leaching of the resin from the CIPP could contaminate the wellhead protection area. Does anyone know of any studies or information pertaining to such concerns?

What kind of groundwater or soil is in the area? Once CIPP is cured out there is no 'leaching'. Very high or low Ph, over 10, below 3) may cause a little but not enough to worry about. Because the caustic or acid soils/waters would eat the well casing.
