Minnesota HF3716 adds variance considerations for submerged closed loop heat exchanger systems.

Minnesota HF3716 introduces variance considerations for submerged closed loop heat exchanger systems. The bill requires the commissioner to consider requests for variances to isolation distance requirements for water supply wells containing these systems if strict compliance would impose an undue burden. The commissioner must evaluate factors critical to the effective design and operation of the system, including spacing between wells and minimizing lateral piping. The bill also includes a revisor instruction to renumber and revise cross-references in Minnesota Statutes.
