SECTION I. Initial Risk Classification (Check all that apply)
1. High Risk
All UST and Non -UST Petroleum Releases
A. An existing water supply well, including one used for non -drinking purposes, has been contaminated by any UST release or
any non -UST petroleum release;
B. There exists a serious threat of explosion due to the accumulation of vapors in a confined space, as a result of the release;
C. Vapors from the discharge or release pose a serious exposure risk through vapor intrusion into inhabited structures; or
D, There exists an imminent danger to public health, public safety or the environment, as a result of the release.
Commercial UST, Noncommercial Motor Fuel UST, and Non -UST Petroleum Releases Only
E. A water supply well used for drinking water is located within 1,000 feet of the source area of a confirmed release;
F. A water supply well not used for drinking water is located within 250 feet of the source area of a confirmed release; or
G. The groundwater within 500 feet of the source area of a confirmed release has the potential for future use in that there is
no source of water supply other than the groundwater;
Noncommercial UST Releases OnIV (including Noncommercial Farm or Residential Motor Fuel USTs)
H. A water supply well, including one used for non -drinking purposes, is located within 150 feet of the source area of a
confirmed release;
I. Unassessed free product has been found within 30 feet of a property boundary with a landowner other than the
responsible party for the release; or
J. An unabated surface exposure of free product remains present at a confirmed release from a noncommercial UST
2. Intermediate Risk (Commercial UST and Non -UST Releases Only)
A. Surface water is located within 500 feet of the source area of a confirmed release and the maximum groundwater
contaminant concentration exceeds the applicable surface water quality standard and criteria found in 15A NCAC 213 .0200
by a factor of 10;
B. In the Coastal Plain Physiographic Province (as designated on a map entitled Geologic Map of North Carolina published by
the Department in 1985), the source area of a confirmed release is located where there is recharge to an unconfined or
semi -confined deeper aquifer which the Department determines is being used or may be used as a source of drinking
water;
C. The source area of a confirmed release is located within a designated wellhead protection area, per 42 USC 300h-7(e);
D. The levels of groundwater contamination associated with a confirmed release for any contaminant (except ethylene
dibromide, benzene and the aliphatic and aromatic carbon fraction classes) exceed 50 percent of the solubility of the
contaminant at 25 degrees Celsius or 1,000 times the groundwater quality standard or interim standard established in 15A
NCAC 2L .0202, whichever is lower (these levels have been termed "gross contamination levels"); or
E. The levels of groundwater contamination associated with a confirmed release for ethylene dibromide or benzene exceed
1,000 times the federal drinking water standard set out in 40 CFR 141(these levels have also been termed "gross
contamination levels').
3. Low Risk
A. A low risk classification means that the risk posed by a release does not meet any of the high or intermediate risk
criteria or, based on site -specific information received by the Department, the release does not pose a significant risk.
