Dear Underground Storage Tank Owner/operator:
The General Assembly of North Carolina introduced legislation during the 1995 Short Session to
address the continued solvency of the Leaking Petroleum Underground Storage Tank Cleanup
Funds.. The Underground Storage Tank (UST) Senate Bill 1317 (SB 1317) was ratified on June
21, 1996. SB 1317 requires the Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources
(Department) to rank all UST -related contamination incidents according to the Department's
revised Site Priority Ranking System which classifies sites as: A,-B (highest priority), C, D or E
(lower priority).* Further, SB 1317 requires the Department to notify the UST owner, operator
and/or other responsible party (RP), as applicable, of the ranking of their site. Please find below
a statement notifying you of the priority ranking the Department has assigned to your site. - -
Your site has been assigned a priority ranking score of:
FIRST COLONY CO
Site: COLTSGATE ROAD
Incident # : 15664 PROPERTY
Rank: 060E County: ME
SB 1317 temporarily suspends the requirement to cleanup a discharge or release from a
petroleum UST for lower priority sites (i.e., those ranked C, D or E). This legislation is effective
July 21,1996. Therefore, costs for site assessment or corrective actions at C, D or E sites which
are incurred after July 21,1996, will not be reimbursed from either the Commercial or
919 North Main Street, Ay
