Incident Number: Pending
Dear Ms. Kromm:
The attached report documents the initial response and abatement activities completed for a
release of heating oil from a non-commercial, underground storage tank (UST) located on the
above referenced property. On September 6, 2019, leakage from the UST was discovered
during an inspection of the soil beneath the tank. The release was reported to your office by
Sensible Solutions on September 17, 2019. The 1,000-gallon UST was cleaned and filled
(decommissioned in-place) on October 1, 2019. No impacted soil was removed from the
source area of the release.
No water supply wells were found in the surrounding area. Per the tank owner's request,
closure of the release incident will be obtained via deed recordation of a Notice of Residual
Petroleum and completion of public notice.
Sincerely,
Mark Hosler, L.G.
Enclosure

2.0 SITE HISTORY and CHARACTERIZATION
The project site is a residential property located at 518 Tarleton Avenue in Burlington, North
Carolina (see Figure 1 - USGS topographic map). The subject property is surrounded by single-
family homes (see Figure 2— Land Use Aerial View). The Williams High School campus is located
within about 500 feet southeast of the subject site.
According to the Alamance County Tax Office records, the house on the property was built in
1950. The subject underground heating oil storage tank (UST), located behind the garage, as
shown in Figure 3 and the photographs in Appendix A, was installed when the house was built.
Tables 1 and 2 contain readily available ownership and storage tank system information.
Leakage from the subject UST was discovered in soil beneath the tank on September 6, 2019
during an inspection performed by Sensible Solutions. The amount of oil released was unknown.
The release was reported to the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality, Division of
Waste Management, UST Section Winston-Salem Regional Office via UST-61 Form (see
Appendix B) on September 17, 2019.
3.0 INITIAL RESPONSE and ABATEMENT ACTIVITIES
Sensible Solutions was contracted by the property owner to manage the closure of the subject
UST. The UST was cleaned and filled with an environmentally safe, expanding tn-polymer foam
on October 1, 2019. Zebra Environmental & Industrial Services, of High Point, North Carolina,
was subcontracted to provide the tank cleaning and fluid disposal services. Lisbon Maintenance
Company, of Garland, North Carolina, provided the foam-filling service. A copy of the fluid
disposal manifest is included in Appendix C. No impacted soil was excavated for off-site disposal.
4.0 SOURCE INVESTIGATION
The subject site is located within the Carolina Slate Belt physiographic province. The native soil
in the source area of the release generally consisted of a tan and light brown, slightly fine sandy
SILT (ML) that likely originated from the in situ weathering of metamorphosed granitic rock (CZg
on the Geologic Map of North Carolina, 1985). The depth to groundwater was estimated to be
greater than 20 feet below ground surface, based on the topographic map (see Figure 1).
The subject UST measured 3.8 feet in diameter and 12.0 feet in length. The bottom of the UST lay
at a depth of about 5.8 feet below ground surface. Total tank capacity was 1,000 gallons.
The subject residence and surrounding homes were observed to be connected to the municipal
water distribution system. No water supply wells were found on the subject site or within 150
Page 2
feet of the source area of the release. No other sensitive receptors exist in the immediate vicinity
of the subject release.
5.0 CONCLUSIONS and RECOMMENDATIONS
A 1,000-gallon heating oil UST on the residential property located at 518 Tarleton Avenue in
Burlington, North Carolina was closed in-place on October 1, 2019 (no impacted soil was removed
from the source area of the release). The petroleum residuals in the soil underlying the UST were
not believed to pose a health hazard to the occupants at the subject residence or on neighboring
properties. No water supply wells were found on the subject property or within 150 feet of the
source area. Therefore, the release incident should be classified as "Low Risk". Upon recording a
Notice of Residual Petroleum (NRP) at the county register of deeds office and the completion of
public notice, closure of the release incident should be granted by the NCDEQ, UST Section.

Definitions of Sources
Tank: means the tank that stores the product and is part of the underground storage tank system
Piping: means the piping and connectors running from the tank or submersible turbine pump to the dispenser or other end-use equipment (Vent, vapor recovery, or fill
lines are excluded.)
Dispenser: includes the dispenser and the equipment used to connect the dispenser to the piping (e.g., a release from a suction pump or from components located above
the shear valve)
Submersible Turbine Pump (STP) Area: includes the submersible turbine pump head (typically located in the tank sump), the line leak detector, and the piping that
connects the submersible turbine pump to the tank
Delivery Problem: identifies releases that occurred during product delivery to the tank. (Typical causes associated with this source are spills and overfills.)
Other:

serves as the option to use when the release source is known but does not fit into one of the preceding categories (e.g., for releases from vent lines, vapor
recovery lines, and fill lines)
Unknown: identifies releases for which the source has not been determined
Definitions of Causes
Spill: use this cause when a spill occurs (e.g., when the delivery hose is disconnected from the tank fill pipe or when the nozzle is removed from the dispenser)
Overfill: use when an overfill occurs (e.g., overfills may occur from the fill pipe at the tank or when the nozzle fails to shut off at the dispenser)
Physical or Mechanical Damage: use for all types of physical or mechanical damage, except corrosion (e.g., puncture of tank or piping, loose fittings, broken
components, and components that have changed dimension)
Corrosion: use when a metal tank, piping, or other component has a release due to corrosion (e.g., for steel, corrosion takes the form of rust)
Installation Problem: use when the problem is determined to have occurred specifically because the UST system was not installed properly
Other: use this option when the cause is known but does not fit into one of the preceding categories (e.g., putting regulated substances into monitoring wells)
Unknown: use when the cause has not been determined
