Dear Mr. Hildebran:
A review of information on file with the Underground Storage Tank (UST) Section, Division of Waste
Management, UST Central 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 were closed under risk-based cleanup standards.
The UST Section determines that no further action is warranted for this incident. All required actions have
been completed. On 6/17/2023, the UST Section reviewed a certified copy of the Notice of Residual
Petroleum which is filed with the Register of Deeds on 6/12/2023 in book 2085 and page 1883-1887.
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 02L .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 groundwater contamination exceeds the groundwater quality standards established in
Title 15A NCAC 02L .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.
