Any exceedances of this naturally occurring TOC concentration in the downgradient wells shall be subject to the additional sampling and analysis as described above_: It any volatile organic compounds are detected by method 0 ,` or the equivalent method 502.2, then EPA methods fat► and Ell Faust also be run to detect other organic compound which may be present. The results of all analyses specified in the monitoring requirements, including 604 and 611 if required, must be submitted simultaneously. The results of the sampling and analysis shall: be sent t the N.C.

Victual water usage figures substantiate the facility's ability to stay within its hydraulic limits The wetlands area was constructed only after attempts to acquire an NPDES Permit and/or construct a conventional septic system had tailed. t the time of the inspection, the writer Hated evidence of where a discharge had occurred` from the wetlands disposal area.. The berm adjacent, to a nearby intermittent'stream had breached and wastewater had at some past. time, entered the stream. No discharge was occurring at the time of the visit. It appeared that the deed Canary grass` was growing at the bottom of the disposal area;, however, its ability to function as a wetlands treatment system is questionable.

High nutrients entering the disposal area may have attributed to the proliferation of duckweed noted during the inspection. Groundwater results from the adjacent wells have documented exceedances of groundwater standards primarily for fecal coliform. Remedial action is proposed. It is recommended that all conditions of the subject Permit remain intact and the Permit be reissued for a period of two (2) years.

Actual water usage figures substantiate the facility's ability to stay within its hydraulic limits. The wetlands area was constructed only after attempts to acquire an NPDES Permit and/or construct a conventional septic system had failed. At the ,time of the inspection, the writer noted evidence of where a discharge had occurred from the wetlands disposal area. The berm adjacent to,a nearby intermittent stream had breached and wastewater had at some past time, entered the stream. No discharge was occurring at the time of the visit. it appeared that the Reed Canary grass was growing at the bottom of the disposal area, however, its ability to function as a wetlands treatment system is questionable. The sequentin. g batch pretreatment unit is designed to provide secondary treatment page Three prior to entering nhe AisPosal arca.

NORTH CAROLINA ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT COMMISSION DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PERMIT FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF A WELL OR WELL SYSTEM In accordance with the provisions of Article 7, Chapter 87, North Carolina General Statutes, and other applicable Laws, Rules and Regulations, PERMISSION IS HEREBY GRANTED TO McGee Corporation FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF A MONITOR WELL SYSTEM located 0.3 mile northwest of SR 1365 on U.S. Highway 74 in Union County in accordance with the application dated December 9, 1986 and in conformity with specifications and supporting data, all of which are filed with the Department of Natural Resources and Community Development and are considered a part of this Permit. The monitor well system is to be constructed in the residuum of the Charlotte Belt Hydrogeologic System for the purpose of monitoring an artificial wetlands disposal system. This Permit is for well construction only, and does not waive any provisions or requirements of the Water Use Act of 1967, or any other applicable laws or regulations. Construction of a well under this Permit shall be in compliance with the North Carolina Well Construction Regulations and Standards, and any other laws and regulations pertaining to well construction. This Permit will be effective from the date of its issuance until June 16, 1987 and shall be subject to other specified conditions, limitations, or exceptions as follows: 1. The borehole shall not penetrate to a depth greater than the depth to Permit No. 89-0199-WM-0021 Page Two be monitored or the depth from which contaminants are to be recovered. 2. The well shall not hydraulically connect separate aquifers. 3. Construction materials shall be compatible with the contaminants to be monitored or recovered. The casing shall equal or exceed Schedule 40. 4. The well shall be constructed in such a manner that water from land surface cannot migrate into the gravel pack or well screen area. 5. When a sand pack is placed around the screen, a seal shall be installed above the sand. 6. Grout shall be placed in the annular space between the casing and the borehole wall from land surface to a depth within two feet above the top of the well screen or to the bottom of the casing for open end wells. The top of the well screen should not be above the mean high seasonal water level. 7. All monitoring wells shall be properly developed by the well driller. Development shall include removal of formation materials, mud, drilling fluids and additives. 8. All wells shall be secured to reasonably insure against unauthorized access and use. The well shall be permanently labeled with a warning that it is for monitoring purposes and the entrance to the well must be secured with a lockable cap. 9. All wells shall be afforded reasonable protection against damage during construction and use. 10. Each well shall have permanently affixed an identification plate. 11. A completed GW-1 and copies of all water quality results must be submitted for each well to the Division of Environmental Management. 12. When any monitor well is no longer useful for its intended purpose, it shall be properly abandoned and an abandonment report filed with the Division of Environmental Management.

Given the clayey nature of the saprolite and an existing assumed depth of 15 feet to the water table, the proposed loading rate would' raise the water table 4.5 and 3.7 feet of the center and edge of the bermed disposal area, respectively. (3) The edge of the disposal area appears to he 15-20 from the ' property eundary, well .l within the pe- rimeter f (4) GGiven only secondary treatment, ; plus chlorin ti hs, and the fact that the primary soil sne that would be counted on for waste attenuation A horizon") has been removed according to the soils reports, there i a very high probability that there would he a contra- vention on of GA standardsboth at and outside the pe- rimeter of compliance. a �._nce.: i The hydraulic gradient as a result of disposal, in conjunction with the proximity of the creek to south of the treatment area, will result in ovemeht fs me degree re of contaminated groundwater into that; creek, of least initially.. The word "initially" is used above due to the possibilitythat the hydraulic loading rate, in con- junction with the organic load of waste, and the ap- parently clayey nature of the saprolite, may result over time, in a sealing at the subsurface e prc l it turning the wetland into a lagoon. While the situation outlined in () above might mitigate long term violationsf groundwater rnd surface water stan- dards, the lack of site specific subsurface data: precludes an reliable prediction of to what degree, and for how long, the waters 'would be rntaminat d`. n order to mitigate these potential problems to 'a more acceptable level we would suggest the following: (A) The proposed disposal area should be relocated ace that the edges of the disposal area are - at least 75 feet from the property boundary () One upgradient and threes downgradient wells (total' should be installed to monitor changes in groundwater dwate quality. The wells should be installed at Yeast two weeks prior to disposal and should be bard and , constructed as approved by the Mooresville Regional Office, from whom construction permits must :the ob- tained. (C) The wells should be sampled within 48 hours ' f completion and thereafter every March, July and No- vember for the following: NO 3 Fe NH Fecal Coliform c " (initially & thereafter November only) TDS Water Level (measured prior to sampling) l ( Because of the remaining potential for groundwater contamination*, which would lessen but not deleted by increased buffer, we would suggest that the company be urged to prepare contingency plans for waste dis- posal in the event that the disposal operations re- s nit in contamination of a degree and/or duration which is environmentally unacceptable.

Prior to operation of the system it is recommended that one boring be done within the proposed area to establish permeability of the site. This boring should also establish depth to bedrock or auger refusal. 3. Adequate buffer zones should be established for the system in order to avert any off -site migration. 4.
