Risk-based Assessment and Corrective Action for Petroleum Underground Storage Tanks Greystone Inn 220 Greystone Lane, Lake Toxaway Transylvania County Incident Number: 41171 Risk Classification: Low Ranking: Low Dear Mr. Ellis:
Information received by the Underground Storage Tank (UST) Section, Division of Waste Management, Asheville Regional Office on March 1, 2023, has been reviewed. The review indicates that groundwater
contamination meets the cleanup requirements for a low-risk noncommercial site under Title 15A NCAC 2L .0202 and .0400, as modified by Session Law 2015-241, but contamination exceeds the limits allowed for unrestricted closure of a site.
The UST Section determines that no further action is warranted for this incident. All required actions have been completed. On March 1, 2023, the UST Section received a certified copy of the Notice of Residual Petroleum which is filed with the Register of Deeds (Book: DOC 1070, Page:388-391) and on April 14, 2023 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 2L .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. Be advised that, as contamination may exceed 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.
