Incident Number: 36096
Risk Classification: High
The UST Section, Division of Waste Management (DWM), Mooresville Regional Office
(MRO) received the September 26, 2019 Corrective Action Performance Report-Revl on October 7,
2019, the October 15, 2019 Corrective Action Monitoring Report on October 16, 2019, and the
November 19, 2019 Initial Action Abatement Report on November 21, 2019. The reports were
reviewed and approved on December 9, 2019. The paper report copies will be maintained in the
MRO. The electronic copies have been loaded to the DWM's electronic document storage system
(Laserfiche).
The report states:
• Site remediation was performed via the soil vapor extraction and air sparge systems activated
on April 18, 2012 (shut down in August 2019).
• On June 19, 2018, Apex collected groundwater samples from twelve monitoring wells (MW-
9, MW-11, MW-12, MW-14, MW-17, MW-20, MW-21, MW-22, MW-23, MW-24, MW-25,

and DMW-3). The dissolved -phase endpoint for benzene of 1.0 µg/L was exceeded in
monitoring well MW-23.
• Free product was not detected in any of the groundwater monitoring wells gauged during this
phase.
• Groundwater flow direction beneath the site is influenced by water table depression and
mounding created by system operation at the recovery/sparge wells. Historical groundwater
flow direction has been measured to the north-northwest.
• Apex also collected groundwater samples from six supply wells (5922, 5925, 5927, 5955
Turkey Road and 2847 and 2865 Lane Street). Petroleum compounds have never been
detected in any of the area potable water supplies. Tetrachloroethene at a concentration of
1.15 µg/L was detected in supply well SW-5922, which was consistent with the previous
sampling events. Sentinel wells MW-21, MW-22, and MW-25 continue to indicate that the
gasoline plume is confined to the original source zone identified and described in both the
CSA and approved CAP.
Per this Notice of Regulatory Requirements:
• The remediation system shall remain off. The system must be properly maintained and the
switch ready in case future use is necessary.
• Continue semi-annual groundwater sampling/monitoring.
• The next sampling event for the Monitoring Report shall be conducted in December 2019.
• The next Monitoring Report is due no later than January 31, 2020.
Please note that sampling and correction action must be conducted in accordance with the
Guidelines for Assessment and Corrective Action for UST Releases. Failure to comply in the
manner and time specified may result in the assessment of civil penalties and/or the use of the other
enforcement mechanisms.
