INTRODUCTION
The site is located at 415 US Highway 117 in Burgaw, Pender County, North Carolina. The
site consists of a convenience store which stores petroleum products in underground
storage tanks (USTs) for retail sale. Seven USTs are located at the site. Recently, a
release was identified during equipment upgrade activities. An excerpt from the Site
Check Report prepared by Paragon Environmental Consultants, Inc. and dated June 18,
2020, is below:
Please find enclosed a report summarizing the site check activities for the fill ports of all seven of the USTs at the above referenced facility. A site inspection conducted by the DEQ – UST Section of the tank system at the Go Gas 14 noted that the fill ports were not in compliance on the four gasoline USTs and the three diesel USTs at this facility. On May 27, 2020 Paragon Environmental Consultants, Inc. mobilized to the site to perform assessment sampling at each of the spill buckets on the four 12,000 gallon gasoline USTs, the one 12,000 gallon diesel UST, and the two 10,000 gallon diesel USTs. The results of our findings are summarized herein. Soil samples (two from each tank) were obtained from the [sic] directly above the top of the USTs immediately adjacent to the containment sumps that contained the fill ports at this subject facility. Paragon collected samples from both the south and north sides of each of these containment sumps at depths of approximately three feet below surface grade. The gasoline tank samples were labeled as spill bucket #1 through #4 (with samples A and B obtained from each spill bucket) respectively from the north gasoline tank (tank nearest to US Highway 117 N.) to the south gasoline tank (tank nearest to the building). Soil samples were also collected from the three diesel USTs. The samples from spill bucket #5 were labeled with the north and south sides identified the same as with the gasoline tank samples. The samples from spill bucket #6 and spill bucket #7 were collected from both the east and west sides of each of these containment sumps. Figure 1 illustrates the site layout and the soil sample locations. All of the soil samples obtained adjacent to the fill port containment sumps were submitted to Meritech, Inc. for laboratory analysis by EPA Method 5030. This method tests for total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) from low boiling-point fuels such as gasoline, aviation fuel, and gasohol. The current action level for Method 5030 constituents is 50 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg). The soil samples obtained from the diesel portions of the tank system were also analyzed by Meritech, Inc. according to EPA Method 3550. This method tests for TPH from high boiling-point fuels such as diesel, kerosene, and fuel oil. The current action level for Method 3550 constituents is 100 mg/kg. Sample SB1-A was also analyzed by VPH methods for BTEX as required by the current UST Section guidelines if a TPH

concentration exceeding 50 mg/kg is detected by Method 5030.
The soil sample from the north side of the spill bucket containment sump on
tank #1 (SB1-A) indicated a TPH concentration of 738 mg/kg according to
EPA Method 5030. This concentration exceeds the DEQ action limit for this
TPH method. The sample from the south side of this same spill bucket was
below the action limit for Method 5030 TPH. All of the other soil samples
from the gasoline USTs at the Go Gas 14 were below the laboratory
detection limit according to EPA Method 5030. The analytical results for the
diesel UST soil samples at 415 US Highway 117 N. were below the detection
limits by EPA Methods 5030 and 3550. Table 1 summarizes the TPH
analytical results for this project. Sample SB1-A showed Benzene at a
concentration of 1.53 mg/kg which is above the lowest Maximum Soil
Contaminant Concentration (MSCC) of 0.0056 mg/kg. Toluene was detected
at a concentration of 35.5 mg/kg, exceeding the lowest MSCC of 4.3 mg/kg.
Ethylbenzene was detected at a level of 25 mg/kg, above its lowest MSCC of
4.9 mg/kg. Xylenes were reported at a concentration of 133.5 mg/kg, which
exceeds the lowest MSCC of 4.6 mg/kg. Table 2 summarizes the soil
analytical results for the BTEX site check sample. Attachment A
contains a copy of the laboratory analytical report and the chain-of-custody
record for the samples obtained by Paragon on May 27, 2020.
Based on the request by NCDEQ, Progress completed a Phase I Limited Site Assessment.
The Phase I Limited Site Assessment is summarized below:
Progress mailed 40 water-supply well questionnaires to the property owners within a 500-
foot radius of the site. Fifteen of the questionnaires have been completed and returned
at the time of this report. Progress also completed a visual reconnaissance within 1,500
feet of the site. Progress identified evidence of two water-supply wells during the
vehicular reconnaissance of accessible properties within 1,000 feet of the site or based on
the returned questionnaires. Only one well located at 807 Ridgewood Avenue appears to
be utilized for drinking within 1,000 feet of the subject site.
Based on the relative shallow depth to groundwater (approximately two feet below land
surface), Progress did not collect a soil sample for laboratory analysis as part of this
assessment.
On October 15, 2020, Progress was on-site to install and sample one, two-inch monitoring
well (MW-1) to an approximate depth of 15 feet bls with 10 feet of 0.01 slotted Schedule
40 PVC screen using the hollow stem auger drilling method. However, it was discovered
that a monitoring well was identified proximal to the anticipated installation location.
Following consultation with North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ)
personnel, it was determined that it would be prudent to collect and test a groundwater
sample from the existing monitoring well. Progress collected a groundwater sample from
the monitoring well using a disposable bailer and new length of cord and transferred the

sample to the laboratory containers into a cooler packed with ice. The groundwater
sample collected from monitoring well MW-1 was analyzed for volatile organic compounds
(VOCs) using Standard Method 6200B, for ethylene dibromide (EDB) using EPA Method
504.1, for lead using the Standard Method, and for volatile petroleum hydrocarbons (VPH)
using the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MADEP) Method.
Laboratory analysis of the groundwater sample collected from monitoring well MW-1
detected benzene (245 µg/L), naphthalene (35.2 µg/L), C5-C8 Aliphatics (2,180 µg/L),
C9-C12 Aliphatics (2,070 µg/L), and C9-C10 Aromatics (799 µg/L) at concentrations
exceeding their respective North Carolina 2L Groundwater Quality Standards
(NC2LGWQS). Please note, none of the detected concentrations exceed the applicable
Gross Contamination Levels (GCLs).
Based on the results of the receptor survey and groundwater sampling activities, Progress
made the following conclusions:
1. The site meets the criteria for a High Risk site based on the presence of one active
water-supply well being identified within 1,000 feet of the source area.
2. Public water is readily available to properties located along Jacksonville Highway
and North Carolina Highway 117.
3. Based on the shallow depth to groundwater (approximately two feet below land
surface) soil samples were not collected as part of this assessment.
4. Laboratory analysis of the groundwater sample collected from monitoring well
MW-1 detected benzene (245 µg/L), naphthalene (35.2 µg/L), C5-C8 Aliphatics
(2,180 µg/L), C9-C12 Aliphatics (2,070 µg/L), and C9-C10 Aromatics (799 µg/L) at
concentrations exceeding their respective NC2LGWQS. Please note, none of the
detected concentrations exceed the applicable GCLs.
5. Progress recommends providing a copy of this report to the Wilmington Regional
Office of the NCDEQ, Division of Waste Management, UST Section.
Additional assessment activities have included the following:
On June 24, 2021, 3D Environmental Investigations, LLC, mobilized a track-mounted drill
rig to install three soil borings and construct three monitoring wells (MW-2 through MW-4,
Figure 2). The purpose of the assessment was to also install and sample a deep
monitoring well. Because the site is located within the Coastal Plain, it is imperative that
any subsurface assessment does not promote the cross contamination of subsurface
aquifers that are separated by a continuous and competent confining layer (i.e. clay).
Progress noted the presence of a clay layer in the subsurface at the site that extends
from approximately four feet to the terminus of the shallow Type II monitoring wells
(fifteen feet bls). Following discussions with NCDEQ personnel it was determined that the

installation of a Type III deep monitoring well was not necessary at this time. Please
note, Progress did collect and screen soil samples from the location of the proposed deep
monitoring well (DW-1). Progress collected soil samples at 2.5 foot intervals beginning at
the ground surface to 15 feet below land surface (bls). The soil borings were advanced
using the direct push drilling method.
Laboratory analysis of the soil samples collected from MW-2 and MW-4 did not exhibit
detectable concentrations of TPH-G or TPH-D. Laboratory analysis of the soil sample
collected from MW-3 detected TPH-D (9.5 mg/Kg) at a concentration that does not
exceed its North Carolina Action Level of 100 mg/Kg. Laboratory analysis of the soil
sample collected from DW-1 detected TPH-G (10,500 mg/Kg) and TPH-D (542 mg/Kg) at
concentrations that exceed the respective North Carolina Action Levels of 50 mg/Kg of
100 mg/Kg. Laboratory analysis of the soil sample collected from DW-1 (proximal to
monitoring well MW-1) also indicated targeted compounds at concentrations above their
respective Soil-to-Groundwater Maximum Soil Contaminant Concentrations (MSCCs), with
the concentrations of C5-C8 Aliphatics and C9-C10 Aromatics exceeding their respective
Residential Cleanup Levels. Please note, none of the petroleum hydrocarbons or VPH
ranges exceed their respective Industrial/Commercial Cleanup Levels.
On June 24, 2021, 3D Environmental Investigations, LLC, installed three, two-inch
monitoring wells (MW-2 through MW-4) to approximate depths of 15 feet bls. The wells
were installed using the direct push drilling method. Progress returned to the site on July
1, 2021 to collect groundwater samples from the monitoring wells. The groundwater
sample collected from monitoring well MW-1 was analyzed for VOCs using Standard
Method 6200B, for VPH using the MADEP Method, for ethylene di-bromide (EDB) using
EPA Method 504.1, and for lead.
Laboratory analysis of the groundwater samples collected from monitoring wells MW-2,
MW-3, and MW-4 did not detect targeted compounds above their respective NC2LGWQS,
with the exception of lead in the groundwater sample collected from monitoring well MW-
2. Laboratory analysis of the groundwater samples collected from monitoring well MW-1
detected several targeted compounds above their respective NC2LGWQS. Please note,
none of the compounds were detected at concentrations exceeding the applicable GCL.
Based on the findings of this Additional Risk Assessment Report, Progress made the
following conclusions and recommendations:
Groundwater flow beneath the site appears to be flowing radially beneath the site,
but generally is expected to flow to the west-southwest in the vicinity of the site
towards Osgood Branch;
Soil impacted above the Soil-to-Groundwater MSCCs and the Residential Soil
Cleanup Levels appears to be located proximal to the former fuel dispensers;
Groundwater contamination in excess of the NC2LGWQS persists in on-site
monitoring well MW-1. Compounds were not detected in the groundwater sample
collected from monitoring well MW-1 in excess of their applicable GCLs. Only lead

Provide a copy of this report to the property owner.
On September 7, 2021, Bridger Drilling, LLC, installed one additional, two-inch monitoring
well (MW-5) to approximate depths of 15 feet bls. The well was installed using the direct
push drilling method. The monitoring well was constructed with 10 feet of 0.01 slotted
Schedule 40 PVC screen. Progress collected groundwater samples from the existing
monitoring wells and the newly installed monitoring well. The groundwater samples were
collected using a disposable bailer and new length of cord and transferred to laboratory
containers. The groundwater sample collected from monitoring well MW-5 was analyzed
for VOCs using Standard Method 6200B, for VPH using the MADEP Method, for ethylene
di-bromide (EDB) using EPA Method 504.1, and for lead. The groundwater samples
collected from monitoring wells MW-1 through MW-4 were analyzed for VOCs using
Standard Method 6200B and EDB by EPA Method 504.1.
Laboratory analysis of the groundwater sample collected from monitoring well MW-1
detected benzene (4,110 µg/L), ethylbenzene (840 µg/L), naphthalene (316 µg/L), methyl
tert-butyl ether (42.7 µg/L), toluene (3,640 µg/L), 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene (1,380 µg/L),
total xylenes (4,397 µg/L) at concentrations exceeding their respective North Carolina 2L
Groundwater Quality Standards (NC2LGWQS). Please note, the concentrations of
detected compounds did not exceed the applicable GCLs.
Laboratory analysis of the groundwater sample collected from monitoring wells MW-2
through MW-5 did not detect VOCs (including EDB) at concentrations exceeding the
laboratory detection limits and/or the NC2LGWQS. Additionally, the groundwater sample
collected from monitoring well MW-5 did not exhibit concentrations of lead or VPH ranges
that exceed their respective NC2LGWQS.
Based on the results of the groundwater sampling event, Progress made the following
conclusions:
NCDEQ has classified the site as “high risk” based on the presence of an
identified water-supply well used for drinking water within 1,000 feet of the
site. Municipal water is available to all properties in the vicinity of the site.
Based on review of the laboratory data from the previous assessment
activities, soil impacted above the Soil-to-Groundwater MSCCs and Residential
Soil Cleanup Levels persists in the vicinity of monitoring well MW-1. Soil

contamination in excess of the Industrial/Commercial Soil Cleanup Levels was
not identified at the site.
Laboratory analysis of the groundwater samples collected from monitoring
wells MW-2 through MW-5 did not detect targeted compounds above their
respective NC2LGWQS. Laboratory analysis of the groundwater sample
collected from monitoring well MW-1 detected several targeted compounds
above their respective NC2LGWQS. Please note, none of the compounds were
detected at concentrations exceeding the applicable GCL.
Free product has historically been measured in monitoring well MW-1;
however, during the most recent sampling event free product was not
measured in monitoring well MW-1.
Based on the findings of this Groundwater Monitoring Report, Progress made the
following recommendations:
Groundwater flow beneath the site appears to be flowing radially beneath the site,
but generally is expected to flow to the west-southwest in the vicinity of the site
towards Osgood Branch;
Soil impacted above the Soil-to-Groundwater MSCCs and the Residential Soil

On November 21, 2022, Progress collected groundwater samples from the existing
monitoring wells. The groundwater samples were collected using a disposable bailer and
new length of cord and transferred to laboratory containers. The groundwater samples
collected from monitoring wells MW-2 through MW-5 were analyzed for VOCs using
Standard Method 6200B. Note that monitoring well MW-1 contained approximately 0.4
feet of free product and, therefore, was not sampled.
Laboratory analysis of the groundwater sample collected from monitoring wells MW-2
through MW-5 did not detect VOCs at concentrations exceeding the laboratory detection
limits and/or the NC2LGWQS.
Based on the results of the groundwater sampling event, Progress makes the following

0.4 feet of free product in monitoring well MW-1;
The site meets the criteria for a High Risk site based on the presence of one active
water-supply well being identified within 1,000 feet of the source area;
Prior to a real estate transaction occurring, a Notice of Residual Petroleum (NORP)
must be filed with the Pender County Register of Deeds. Progress recommends
that a copy of this report be submitted to the NCDEQ; and,
Based on the presence of free product, Progress recommends implementing an
Aggressive Fluid Vapor Recovery (AFVR) event at the site.
HISTORIC FREE PRODUCT

event. During the most recent sampling event, monitoring well MW-1 contained
approximately 0.4 feet of free product and, therefore, was not sampled.
FIELD ACTIVITIES
On January 26, 2023, Progress and Contaminant Control, Inc. (CCI) were on-site to
remove free product from monitoring well MW-1 during an aggressive fluid vapor
recovery (AFVR) event. Prior to the commencement of free product recovery activities,
free product was measured in monitoring well MW-1 with a thickness of 0.25 inch. The
activities were completed in an effort to remove free product detected in the monitoring
well MW-1. The AFVR event was initiated at 9:05 am. The vacuum pressure maintained
during the event ranged from 23 to 26 inches of mercury throughout the event. Volatile
organics were measured in the effluent exhaust using a photoionization detector (PID) at
2,000 ppm throughout the event.
The AFVR event terminated at 1:55 pm as the vacuum truck was at capacity. The AFVR
event recovered approximately 3,156 gallons of petroleum contaminated groundwater
and free product. A copy of the disposal manifest is included in the Appendix.
Free product was not detected in the vacuum truck following a period of stabilization.
Tables B-8 and B-9 summarize the AFVR field activities and estimated recovery of
gasoline as vapor (5.657 pounds or 0.91 gallons of gasoline).
Following the completion of activities, free product was not detected in monitoring well
MW-1.
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on the results of the AFVR event, it is Progress’s opinion that the free product appears
to have been successfully removed from the proximity of monitoring well MW-1. Progress
recommends continued assessment of monitoring well MW-1 for free product and
implementation of additional AFVR activities, if warranted.

Calculations
PPMw = “wet” concentration
PPMd = “dry” concentration
PPMc = PPMv, volumetric concentration of VOC emissions as carbon, dry basis, at STP
Cc:m
Cc = Cc:m (62.43 x 10-9 lb-m3/mg-ft3), lb/dscf, mass concentration of VOC emissions as carbon, dry basis, at STP
PMRc = Cc (Qstd) (60 min/hr), lb/hr, pollutant mass removal rate of VOC’s as carbon
PMRg = (PMRc) (Mg/Mcg), lb/hr, pollutant mass removal rate of VOC’s as gasoline
K = number of carbons in calibration gas (methane K=1, propane K=3, hexane K=6)
Mc = 12.01 mg/mg-mole, molecular wt. of carbon
K3 = 24.07 dsm3/106 mg-mole, mass to volume conversion factor at STP
Cc = lb/dscf, mass concentration of VOC emissions as carbon, dry basis, at STP
Mg = 103 mg/mg-mole, molecular wt. of gasoline (value may vary depending on contaminant)
Mcg = 89 mg/mg-mole, weight of carbon in gasoline molecule
Average values for molecular weight of gasoline, weight of carbon in gasoline molecule, and the conversion of pounds of gasoline emissions to gallons
of liquid gasoline are from Automotive Fuels Reference Book, by K. Owens and T. Coley, Second Edition, 1995, published by the Society
of Automotive Engineers.
