On July 20, 2015, HDR reviewed the NCDENR DWR Source Water Assessment Program (SWAP) online database for public water supply sources to identify any wells located within a 0.5-mile radius of the ash basin compliance boundary, confirm the location of wells included in the Public Water Supply Water Sources GIS point data set, and identify any wellhead protection areas located within a 0.5-mile radius of the compliance boundary. The NCDENR SWAP database provides detailed assessments of all public drinking water intakes and wellhead protection areas in North Carolina. The website address is: (http://swap.ncwater.org/website/swap/viewer.htm). On July 20, 2015, Mr. Brian Booth with HDR contacted Mr. Sean McGuire, GIS Specialist with the NCDENR PWSS, by telephone. Mr. McGuire stated that as of July 20, 2015, the data contained in the Public Water Supply Water Sources GIS point data set obtained from the NC OneMap GeoSpatial Portal was current through November 18, 2009. The most current GIS data set of public water supply locations available from North Carolina state agencies was acquired and reviewed by HDR on July 20, 2015. The current data matches the previous data obtained from the NC OneMap GeoSpatial Portal. This new data set is current through June 2015. The most current data is available by request. The GIS point data for the public water supply wells includes, but is not limited to information such as public water supply (PWS) system identification numbers, ownership information, PWS source type, well depth, and well yield. Mr. McGuire indicated the Public Water Supply Water Sources GIS point data set and the SWAP online database was in the process of being updated. No public water supply wells were identified in the Public Water Supply Water Sources GIS point data set or on the NCDENR SWAP online database within a 0.5-mile radius of the Dan River ash basin compliance boundary. No wellhead protection areas were identified on the NCDENR SWAP online database within a 0.5-mile radius of the Dan River ash basin compliance boundary.
