The operator shall notify, in writing, the Board of Minerals and Environment of the penetration of an aquifer and the location of the test hole penetrating such aquifer as soon as practically possible, but not more than ninety days after penetration. The board may waive this requirement if, after consultation with the state geologist, the board determines that further hydrological information is no longer necessary from a particular area of the exploration operation or from the entire area of the exploration operation.
