Dear Michael,
After checking with our staff we will be able to help you with these analyses from the two locations. If I understand
correctly, the sampling will be coordinated through NCDEQ and that they will deliver the samples to EPA here in RTP.
Please let me know if the process has changed, otherwise we'll go ahead with this plan.
Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks
jennifer

Dear Jennifer Orme-Zavaleta, PhD,
| hope this email finds you well. I am the Town Manager for the Town of Carolina Beach North Carolina and I would like
torequest your help with some sampling and tests. | was given your name bythe N[DECFDVVRregarding testing you
have been performing for the 6enXissue inthe Wilmington Area. Previously the State indicated tousthat the Pee Dee

aquifer had not tested positive for the GenXcompound. However, recently Wrightsville Beach receive apositive test
result of24to 28 pptofGenX at Well # 11 that draws water from the Pee Dee Aquifer. Carolina Beach is approximately
8 miles from the Cape Fear Public Utility Authority's ASR Well and the Wrightsville Well # 11 and we too draw water
from the Pee Dee aquifer. My council and their constituents are very concerned about the possibility of the Pee Dee
Aquifer having GenX and potentially effecting our wells. We would like to participate in the current study sampling run
through the EPA lab in Raleigh regarding this issue. We believe that our results could be used by the EPA asa control
site for this issue. We are formally requesting to be a part of this study or if that is not possible, we would like to pay the
EPA toperform tests ontwo samples from our wells. VVeintend onpaying two other firms toalso test these
samples. This way vvecan have confirmation from different lab ofthe results. Please let meknow ifyou are willing to
help uswith our efforts. | look forward tohearing from you.
Sincerely,
Michael
