IV. GROUNDWATER REQUIREMENTS
1. All monitoring wells (MW-1, MW-lB, MW-5, MW-7, MW-9, MW-11, MW-12, MW-16
(see attached map)) shall be sampled every February, May, and August for the following
parameters:
EPA Method 602 Xylenes
Water Level
2. Monitoring wells, MW-3, MW-9, MW-11, MW-12, and MW-16 should also be sampled
every February, May, August, and November for the following parameter:
EPA Method 610.
3. The measurement of water levels must be made prior to sampling for the remaining
parameters. The depth to water in each well shall be measured from the surveyed point on
the top of the casing.
The measuring points (top of well casing) of all monitoring wells shall be surveyed to
provide the relative elevation of the measuring point for each monitoring well.
4. The results of the sampling and analysis shall be sent to the Groundwater Section, Permits
and Compliance Unit, P.O. Box 29535 Raleigh, N.C. 27626-0535 on Form GW-59
[compliance Monitoring Report Form] every March, June, September, and December.
5. The influent and effluent of the treatment system shall be sampled every February, May,
August, and November for EPA Method 602 including xylene. The effluent should also be
sampled for pH, NO3, NH3, TKN and total phosphorus using the aforementioned
schedule.
6. The results of the sampling and analysis shall be sent to the Groundwater Section, Permits
and Compliance Unit, P.O. Box 29535 Raleigh, N.C. 27626-0535 every March, June,
September, and December.
7. Any additional groundwater quality monitoring, as deemed necessary by the Division, shall

for the disposal system constructed after December 31, 1983 is established at either (1) 250
feet from the waste disposal area, or (2) 50 feet within the property boundary, whichever is
closest to the waste disposal area. An exceedance of Groundwater Quality Standards at or
beyond the Compliance Boundary is subject to immediate remediation action in addition to
the penalty provisions applicable under General Statute 143-215.6A(a)(1).
In accordance with 15A NCAC 2L, a REVIEW BOUNDARY is established around the
disposal systems midway between the Compliance Boundary and the perimeter of the
waste disposal area. Any exceedance of standards at the Review Boundary shall require
remediation action on the part of the permittee.
9. Within sixty (60) days of completion of all monitoring wells, the permittee shall submit two
original copies of a scaled topographic map (scale no greater than 1 ":100') signed and
sealed by a professional engineer or a state licensed land surveyor that indicates all of the
following information:
a. the location and identity of each monitoring well,
b. the location of the waste disposal system,
c. the location of all property boundaries,
d. the latitude and longitude of the established horizontal control monument,
e. the relative elevation of the top of the well casing (which shall be known as the
"measuring point"), and
f. the depth of water below the measuring point at the time the measuring point is
established.
The survey shall be conducted using approved practices outlined in North Carolina General
Statutes Chapter 89C and the North Carolina Administrative Code Title 21, Chapter 56.
The surveyor shall establish a horizontal control monument on the property of the waste
disposal system and determine the latitude and longitude of this horizontal control
monument to a horizontal positional accuracy of +/- above shall be surveyed relative to this
horizontal control monument. The positional accuracy of features listed in a. through e.
above shall have a ratio of precision not to exceed an error of closure of 1 foot per 10,000
feet of perimeter of the survey. Any features located by the radial method will be located
from a minimum of two points. Horizontal control monument shall be installed in such a
manner and made of such materials that the monument will not be destroyed due to
activities that may take place on the property. The map shall also be surveyed using the
North American Datum of 1983 coordinate system and shall indicate the datum on the map.
All bearings or azimuths shall be based on either the true or NAD 83 grid meridian. If a
Global Positioning System (GPS) is used to determine the latitude and longitude of the
horizontal control monument, a GPS receiver that has the capability to perform differential
GPS shall be used and all data collected by the GPS receiver will be differentially
corrected.
The maps and any supporting documentation shall be sent to the Groundwater Section,
N.C. Division of Environmental Management P.O. Box 29535 Raleigh, N.C. 27626-
0535.
10. All components of the groundwater recovery, treatment, and disposal system shall be
properly weather -proofed to prevent freezing and failure of the system.

is determined that the system is malfunctioning, all repairs should be made as soon as
possible and reported to the Mooresville Regional Office within 48 hours.

12. The permittee shall retain copies of records of all monitoring information, including all
calibration and maintenance records, all original strip chart recordings for continuous
monitoring instrumentation and copies of all reports required by this permit, for a period of
at least three (3) years from the date of the sample, measurement, report or application.
Records of this monitoring information shall include, but not be limited to, the following:
a. the date, exact place, and time of sampling or measurements,
b . the individual who performed the sampling or measurements,
c. the date the analyses were performed,
d. the analytical techniques or methods used, and
e. the results of any such sampling, measurements, and analyses.
V. INSPECTIONS
1. Adequate inspection, maintenance and cleaning shall be provided by the Permittee to insure
proper operation of the subject facilities.
2. The Permittee or his designee shall inspect the groundwater recovery and treatment
facilities to prevent malfunctions and deterioration, operator errors and discharges which
may cause or lead to the release of wastes to the environment, a threat to human health, or a
nuisance. The Permittee shall keep an inspection log or summary including at least the date
and time of inspection, observations made, and any maintenance, repairs, or corrective
actions taken by the Permittee. This log of inspections shall be maintained by the Permittee-
for a period of three years from the date of the inspection and shall be made available upon
request to the Division of Environmental Management or other permitting authority.
3. Any duly authorized officer, employee, or representative of the Division of Environmental
Management may, upon presentation of credentials, enter and inspect any property,
premises or place on or related to the disposal site and facility at any reasonable time for the
purpose of determining compliance with this permit; may inspect or copy any records that
must be kept under the terms and conditions of this permit; or may obtain samples of
groundwater, surface water, or leachate.

7. The issuance of this permit does not preclude the Permittee from complying with any and
all statutes, rules, regulations, or ordinances which may be imposed by other government
agencies (local, state, and federal) which have jurisdiction.
