Dear Mr. Regenthal:
Re: Conditional Notice of No Further Action ISA NCAC 2L .0407(d) Risk-based Assessment and Corrective Action for Petroleum Underground Storage Tanks
Miller's Country Store 1706 US Highway 17 (old address)
(2044 -2052 US Higlnvay 17 N) Merry Hill, Be1tie County Incident Number: 31939
Risk Classification: Low Rank: L 0135 D
The Notice of Residual Petroleum received on December 2, 2022, has been reviewed and signed. A review of the information on file indicates that soil contamination exceeds the residential maximum soil
contaminant concentrations (MSCCs) established in Title I SA NCAC 2L .0411 and groundwater contamination meets the cleanup requirements for a low-risk site but exceeds the groundwater quality standards established in Title I SA NCAC 2L .0202.
The UST Section determines the subject incident to be eligible conditionally for no fmther action status. However, final approval of no further action status is contingent on the filing of the approved NRP
(attached) with the Register of Deeds in the county in which the release is located, verified by the receipt of a certified copy of the filed NRP by this office; and on receipt of confirmation that public notice requirements have been completed, as described in the following paragraphs.
Be advised that as groundwater contamination exceeds the groundwater quality standards established in Title I SA NCAC 2L .0202, groundwater within the area of contamination or within the area where groundwater contamination is expected to migrate is not suitable for use as a water supply as stipulated in
the Notice of Residual Petroleum (attached). Be advised that as soil contamination exceeds the residential MSCCs, the property containing the contamination is suitable only for industrial/commercial use as stipulated in the Notice of Residual Petroleum (attached).
