Subject: Roxboro Steam Electric Plant Coal Pile Groundwater Assessment Plan Comments
Dear Mr. Draovitch:
On May 7, 2019, the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality Division of Water Resources
(Division) received the proposed Groundwater Assessment Plan for the Coal Pile at the Roxboro Steam
Electric Plant. The Division has reviewed and hereby approves the proposed assessment activities under
the condition that the following item is addressed as part of the plan implementation and the results reported
in the facility's Corrective Action Plan (CAP) that includes the subject area.
• If the physical well locations of the proposed monitoring wells deviate by more than one hundred
(100) feet from the original proposed locations, please contact the Raleigh Regional Office prior to
boring/well installation.
The results should also be incorporated into the CAP's geochemical and groundwater fate and transport
models. If the results of the modeling show current or future impacts to groundwater and/or surface water
from this area, then appropriate remedial strategies shall be proposed in the CAP.
If you have any questions, please contact Eric Rice (Raleigh Regional Office) at [phone] or Steve
Lanter (Central Office) at [phone].
