Risk-based Assessment and Corrective Action

Yancey County
Incident Number: 41679
Risk Classification: Low

Dear Mr. Walston:
A review of information on file with the Underground Storage Tank (UST) Section, Division of Waste
Management, Asheville Regional Office indicates that groundwater contamination meets the cleanup
requirements for a low-risk release under Title 15A NCAC 2L .0202 and .0400, but contamination exceeds
the limits allowed for the unrestricted use of a site where closed under risk-based cleanup standards.
The UST Section determines that no further action is warranted for this incident. All required actions have
been completed. On February 3, 2023, the UST Section received a certified copy of the Notice of Residual
Petroleum which is filed with the Register of Deeds in Book CRP 892, Pages 150-154, and was provided
with proof of receipt of the conditional Notice of No Further Action letter or of refusal by the addressee to
accept delivery of the letter or with a description of the manner in which the letter was posted.
This determination shall apply unless the UST Section later finds that the discharge or release poses an
unacceptable risk or a potentially unacceptable risk to human health or the environment. Pursuant to Title
15A NCAC 02L .0407(a) you have a continuing obligation to notify the Department of any changes that
might affect the risk or land use classifications that have been assigned.
This No Further Action determination applies only to the subject incident; for any other incidents at the
subject site, the responsible party must continue to address contamination as required.
If you have any questions regarding trust fund eligibility or reimbursement from the Commercial Leaking
Petroleum Underground Storage Tank Cleanup Funds, please contact the UST Section Trust Fund Branch
at [phone].
