Dear Ms. Miller:

The Division of Waste Management (DWM) Underground Storage Tank (UST) Section received the August 3,
2020 Ground Water Monitoring Report on August 3, 2020. Please complete the following;

 Reinstall damaged\destroyed monitoring wells MW-1M, 3M and TW-1M (not reimbursable)
 Sample groundwater in February 2020.
 The submitted Mann-Kendall reports on MWs 1 and 3 indicated not all contaminants are stable or
decreasing.

Because a release or discharge has been confirmed, a Licensed Geologist or a Professional Engineer, certified
by the State of North Carolina, is required to prepare and certify all reports submitted to the Department in
accordance with Title 15A NCAC 2L .0103(e) and 2L .0111(b).

Please note that before you sell, transfer, or request a “No Further Action” determination for a property that
has not been remediated to below “unrestricted use” standards, you must file a Notice of Residual Petroleum
("Notice") with the Register of Deeds in the county where the property is located (NCGS 143B-279.9 and
143B-279.11).

Failure to comply with the State's rules in the manner and time specified may result in the assessment of civil
penalties and/or the use of other enforcement mechanisms.

If you have any questions regarding the actions or the rules mentioned in this letter, please contact me at
