S.D. Admin. R. 74:29:11:24
Pipeline systems must be constructed of materials that have the strength, thickness, and chemical properties needed to prevent failure due to pressure gradients, physical contact with the waste or fluids to which the pipes are exposed, climatic conditions, stress of installation, seismic, and stress of daily operation.
Design and construction requirements for well field pipelines and pipelines between the wellfield and processing and satellite facilities shall include an early detection and shut down capability in the event of pressure drop or loss of flow as approved by the department. This may include automatic motor operated valves with pressure transmitters and manually operated valves, or devices approved by the department.
Alternative pipeline designs may be approved if they provide an equivalent degree of protection to surface and ground water.
