and one (1) downgradient, shall be installed to monitor groundwater quality. The well(s)
shall be constructed in the bedrock aquifer and such that the water level in the well is never
above or below the screened (open) portion of the well at any time during the year. The
general location and name for each well is marked on Attachment A. Each monitoring well
shall be located at the review boundary, constructed in accordance with this permit, and
approved by the Mooresville Regional Office.
3. Monitor wells MW -1 and MW -2 shall be sampled initially after construction (and prior to
waste disposal operations) and thereafter every March, July, and November, for the
following parameters:
TDS NO3
pH Water Level
Chloride TOC
Ammonia Nitrogen Fecal Coliform
Volatile Organic Compounds - In November only (by Method 1 or 2 below)
Method 1: Method 6230D (Capillary - Column), "Standard Methods For The
Examination of Water and Wastewater", 17th ed., 1989
Method 2: Method 502.2 "Methods For The Determination Of Organic Compounds
In Drinking Water", U.S. EPA -60014-881039

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.
If TOC concentrations greater than 10 mg/l are detected in any downgradient monitoring
well, additional sampling and analysis must be conducted to identify the individual
constituents comprising this TOC concentration. If the TOC concentration as measured in
the background monitor well exceeds 10 mg/l, this concentration will be taken to represent
the naturally occurring TOC concentration. Any exceedances of this naturally occurring
TOC concentration in the downgradient wells shall be subject to the additional sampling
and analysis as described above.
If any volatile organic compounds are detected by Method 6230D, or the equivalent Method
502.2, then the Mooresville Regional Office Groundwater Supervisor, telephone number
(704) 663-1699, must be contacted immediately for further instructions regarding any
additional follow-up analyses required. The results of all initial and follow-up analyses
must be submitted simultaneously.
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

construction.
6. The Mooresville Regional Office, telephone number (704) 663-1699, shall be notified at
least forty-eight (48) hours prior to the construction of any monitoring well so that an
inspection can be made of the monitoring well location. Such notification to the regional
groundwater supervisor shall be made during the normal office hours from 8:00 a.m. until
5:00 p.m. on Monday through Friday, excluding state holidays.
7. 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.
