Dear Ms. Tolar:
A review of information on file with the Underground Storage Tank (UST) Section, Division of Waste
Management, Fayetteville Regional Office, indicates that soil and groundwater contamination meet 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 closed using risk-based cleanup standards.
Please note: There is a Notice of Residual Petroleum (NRP) that was previously recorded with the Robeson
County Register of Deeds (filed 7/20/2017, Bk: 2094, Pg: 443-448) for the subject incident location. This
previously recorded NRP is applicable to the soil and groundwater contamination and remains valid.
Be advised that, as contamination exceeds the groundwater quality standards established in Title 15A
NCAC 2L .0202, groundwater within the area where contamination is present or is expected to migrate is
not suitable for use as a water supply. Be advised that as soil contamination may exceed the residential
MSCCs, the property containing the soil contamination is suitable only for industrial / commercial use as
stipulated in the Notice of Residual Petroleum (recorded copy attached).
As groundwater contamination exceeds the groundwater quality standards established in Title 15A NCAC
2L .0202, and soil contamination may exceed the lower of the residential or soil-to-groundwater MSCCs,
public notice in accordance with 15A NCAC 02L .0409(b) also is required. Within 30 days of receipt of
this letter, a copy of this letter must be provided by certified mail (or otherwise be made available by posting
