Ms. Martin,
Thanks for getting the list to me. Can you provide physical addresses for the PWSs? And if you have contact information, it should
prove useful also.
As for the DuPont Employee Recreation Center, I have been told that the only source of potable water for the DuPont -Fayetteville
facility is now municipal water. The facility shut-in their water wells this summer. The wells produced from a deep aquifer. Prior to
shut-in, the wells were tested for C-8, and the analytical results came back as non -detect. However, I will confirm this information with
the facility.

Mr. Stanley,
Since our earlier mention of the Mt. Pisgah Baptist Church, the Regional
GIS person has identified that there apparently are two duPont
facilities - one in Cumberland County and one in Bladen County. Our
original search for PWSs near the duPont facility focused on the
facility in Cumberland County. We have determined that the duPont
facility of interest is actually the facility located in Bladen County,
NC.
For this reason, the following four PWSs (located within 2 miles of the
Bladen County duPont facility) are ones that EPA would ask.that duPont
consider monitoring during the January 23 - February 3 sampling period:
William 0 Huske Lock and Dam (NC0309547)
DuPont Employee Rec Center (NC0326797)
Willis Creek AME Zion Church (NC0326735)
Nance's Country Store (NC0326728)
NOTE: Mt. Pisgah Baptist Church is no longer on our list of PWSs of
interest.
Thank you for the provided information and for your coordination with
duPont concerning this request for C8 monitoring at nearby PWSs. (BY
THE WAY, WHAT IS "HWS"?)

Ms. Martin,
DuPont -Fayetteville recently submitted an outline of near -term
investigative activities at the site. The facility plans to collect
groundwater, surface water, and sediment samples during the period from
January 23 to February 3. SESD should be on -site during this time.
The HWS has proposed that SESD collect ten samples. This scope of work
is based on guidance the HWS received from SESD. The majority of these
will be samples that SESD splits with DuPont -Fayetteville. (DuPont's
sampling program for this event is considerably larger.)
As the HWS and DuPont -Fayetteville discussed the samples to be
collected during the sampling event mentioned above, we also talked
about sampling PWSs. Since we haven't received a list of PWSs from EPA
or guidance on sampling (such as a recommended radius from the plant),
PWSs were not included in this sampling event. Please keep in mind
that this idea has not been, as far as I know, proposed to DuPont
corporate management. The plant environmental manager indicated he
needs the details of EPA's request before sending it on to corporate
management. However, he believes that, unless the scope of work is
extremely large, it will be approved.
The HWS and DuPont -Fayetteville also discussed Mt. Pisgah Baptist
Church. The address given for the church in your previous e-mail is
the plant's address. We did, however, locate a Mt. Pisgah Baptist
Church about five miles north of the plant. Considering the distance
from the plant to the church, DuPont -Fayetteville proposed, and the HWS
concurred, that it would be better to wait for EPA's final list of
PWSs.

Larry Stanley

C8 monitoring at duPont

Mr. Stanley,
I have received your voice mail message. It would be great if duPont
would do monitoring for C8 at public water systems (PWSs) near the
plant. With regard to the PWSs that EPA would ask to be monitored, that
list is not yet final. Our GIS folks have searched and located one PWS
within a mile of the duPont facility. That is the Mt. Pisgah Baptist
Church at 22828 NC Highway 87W. (The initial info I had about a nearby
school should be ignored for now.)
As indicated, EPA Region 4 has limited the search for PWSs to the
one -mile radius. We have not yet gotten confirmation from EPA
Headquarters that a one -mile radius is agreeable. We expect to hear
from Headquarters soon and will forward any additional information to
you.
Thank you so much for doing what you can to accommodate requests from
the drinking water program,
