shall drill, deepen or convert any well to a production well without a permit
from the Department.

If the application does not contain all of the required information or
documents, the Department shall notify the applicant in writing. The
notification shall specify the additional information or documents necessary to
an evaluation of the application, and shall advise the applicant that the
application will be deemed denied unless the information or documents are
submitted within 60 days following the date of notification.
d)
Any well for which a permit is
required under the Act, other than a plugged well, which was drilled prior to

issued, is required to be permitted. Application for a permit shall be
made on forms prescribed by the Department. The application shall be executed
under penalties of perjury, and accompanied by the required bond under Subpart
