This chapter is enacted to provide for the protection of the county's groundwater
sources from degradation that could result from inadequately constructed, defective,
or improperly abandoned wells, to provide for regulation of small water systems in
accordance with federal standards as mandated by the state, and to require submission
of tentative subdivision maps and building permit applications to the health officer
for him to review the availability of an approved water supply prior to recordation
of final maps and issuance of building permits. Notwithstanding the foregoing, by
enacting this chapter, the county of Contra Costa neither assumes nor undertakes any
obligations or responsibilities of any kind to assure, guarantee, preserve, or otherwise
guard the adequacy, potability, or any other qualitative or quantitative feature of
the county's groundwater sources in any manner whatsoever, and no cause of action
against the county, its agents, directors, or employees shall be deemed to accrue
under any theory whatsoever on the basis of the enactment of this chapter or any subsequent
amendment thereto.
