The Department requires that all work following the submittal of the Limited Site Assessment Report (Title
15A NCAC 2L .0405) be preapproved if State Trust Fund reimbursement is anticipated. To comply with this requirement, a completed Preapproval/Claim Authorization Form, encompassing the required remedial activities, must be received in this office within 14 days of the date of this letter. Upon completion of the
preapproved activities, you should submit your claim promptly. Reimbursement funds are budgeted based on completed preapprovals, but lengthy delays in reimbursement can occur if claims are not submitted immediately following work completion. 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(e). If you have any questions regarding trust fund eligibility or reimbursement from the Commercial Leaking Petroleum Underground Storage Tank Cleanup Funds, please contact the UST Section Trust Fund Branch at [phone]. If you have any questions regarding the actions that must be taken or the rules mentioned in this letter, please contact me [e-mail] or at the address or telephone number listed below. Sincerely,
Ryan A. Bond, P.G. Environmental Program Consultant Winston-Salem Regional Office UST Section, Division of Waste Management, NCDEQ
