Maysville Mineral Oil Spill Carteret-Craven Electric Cooperative (CCEC) Substation - Maysville 7076 NC Hwy 58, Maysville Jones County Incident Number: 96942
Dear Mr. Pittman: The Initial Site Assessment Report received by the UST Section, Division of Waste Management, Washington Regional Office on January 16, 2023 has been reviewed. The report documents initial
abatement actions taken to mitigate a release of Non PCB Mineral Oil. The release of mineral oil from the Maysville substation was caused by vandalism involving gunshots to several transformers. Immediate response included recovery of mineral oil by vacuum trucks, absorbent booms and pads. Approximately 105 tons of contaminated material was excavated until no visual product was observed. In accordance with SL 2011-38, the UST Section determines that no further action is
warranted for this incident. This No Further Action determination applies only to the subject incident: for any other incidents at the subject site, the responsible party must continue to address contamination as required. If you have any questions regarding this notice, please contact me at the address or telephone
number listed below.
Sincerely, Carrie Stone
