Land Owner Agreements (LOA) for the following fields do not appear to match the deed
information available per County GIS maps. Please note that reciprocating setback waivers are
necessary for adjacent parcels not owned by the same individual but are being submitted as
a single field. Please review the following discrepancies, provide the additional documentation as
necessary, and revise the LASC and LOA forms as needed to reflect these changes:

provided LOA was signed by Ms. Rosamund West, please provide LOAs for these parcels that
are signed by the owner. Additionally, please provide the necessary reciprocating setback
waivers and an updated site map depicting the setback at the property boundary.
e. Field NC-NO-10-01 is located across two parcels, Parcels No. 4041-20-1775 and 4041-30-
2993. The county GIS lists John L. Carpenter, Jr. as the owner for these parcels; however, the
provided LOA was signed by Stephen Lucas Clements. Please provide an LOA for Mr.

f. For Field NC-NO-12-1, located on Parcel No. 4949-97-2062, county GIS lists the owners as

According to the submitted maps, there appear to be multiple water supply wells that would be
located within the compliance boundaries of land application fields. 15A NCA 02L .0107(d)
prohibits the construction or operation of water supply wells within the compliance boundary,
which is established either 250 feet from the waste boundary or 50 feet within the property
boundary, whichever is closer to the source [15A NCAC 02L .0107(b)]. Water supply wells appear
to be within the compliance boundaries for the following fields:
• NC-HX-06-03 — One well is located on Mr. Bernard Michael Morris's property south of
Wright Road and west of the field, and one well is located on Mr. Bernard F. Morris Jr.'s
property south of Wright Road and east of the field.
• NC-NO-10-(02-03) — The well located between Fields 02 and 03.
• NC-WR-03-02 — The well to the south of the field.
• NC-NO-12-01 — The well at the center of the field.
• NC-NO-21-06 — The well to the northwest of the field.
• NC-NO-21-33 — The well to the northeast of the field.
• NC-NO-21-22 — The well to the north of the field.
• NC-NO-21-27 — The well to the north of the field.
An alternative to this requirement can be approved in accordance with 15A NCAC 02T .0105(h).
Upon the Permittee's request, the compliance boundary may be located closer to the waste disposal
area (i.e. more restrictive) due to an on -site water supply well. If this option is chosen, the following
items shall be resubmitted:
a. Section III on page 2 of 3 of the Land Owner's Agreement form (LOA 06-16) shall be updated
for the above fields to request for the alternative boundary; and

b. A letter requesting redefined boundaries for all affected fields. For example, a statement that
says "Field NC-XX-XX-XX: A redefined compliance boundary is requested for this site. The
redefined compliance boundary is located [LOCATION] and shall be located 50 feet from the
well located on [LANDOWNER'S NAME] property" would be acceptable for each request.
New maps do not need to be submitted, just a letter requesting redefined boundaries for all
affected fields. Please note that the new boundary must be at least 50 feet from the water supply
well.
3. Our records indicate that parcel NC-HX-09-07 owned by Nat Justice West (Parcel 0703013) is
already active and associated with Permit No. WQ0001989. This field was previously included as
a residual site for WQ0001989 under the September 5, 2007 permit. Cumulative Pollutant Loading
Rate (CPLR) results are necessary for fields that have previously been active residual sites.
H. Site Maps:
The site map for NC-WR-3-2 indicates rock outcrops throughout the application area. Rock outcrops are
not suitable for land application, and setbacks — which were not depicted — are required pursuant to 15A
NCAC 02T .I 108(c). These setbacks will modify the acreage of field NC-WR-3-2. Please update the site
map and the LASC documents as necessary.
