Risk -based Assessment and Corrective Action
for Petroleum Underground Storage Tanks
Suzanne Wittebort Property
3130 Fairfax Drive, Charlotte
Mecklenburg County
Incident Number: 48021
Risk Classification: Low
A review of information on file with the Underground Storage Tank (UST) Section, Division of
Waste Management, Mooresville 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 where closed under risk -based
cleanup standards. Groundwater was not sampled as part of the site investigation.
The UST Section determines the subject incident to be eligible conditionally for no further action
status. However, final approval of no further action status is contingent on the filing of the approved Notice
of Residual Petroleum with the Register of Deeds in the county in which the release is located (received
September 11, 2021), verified by the receipt of a certified copy of the filed NRP by this office (see
attachment); and receipt of confirmation that public notice requirements have been completed, as described
below.
Be advised that as soil contamination may exceed the residential MSCCs, the portion of the
property containing the soil contamination is suitable only for restricted residential use ("residential" being
inclusive of, but not limited to, private houses, apartment complexes, schools, nursing homes, parks,
recreation areas and day care centers), as stipulated in the Notice of Residual Petroleum (attached).
Groundwater is prohibited from use as a water supply. Water supply wells of any kind shall not be installed
or operated at the site.
