Box 117 Denver, NC 28037 Re: Health Risk Evaluation of Water Supply Incident Number: 3898 Dear Ms. Little and Ms. Little: Please find attached the Sample Analytical Results for a water sample collected from your well, identified as WSW-Little, located at 5683 East NC Highway 150, Denver, Catawba County, June 26, 2023. The sample was collected and analyzed as part of the investigation of a petroleum release in the vicinity. The water sample was analyzed for specific target analytes (contaminants), which are listed on the attached Sample Analytical Results. Contaminants were detected in the water sample, as shown on the attached Sample Analytical Results. Because contaminants were detected in the water sample, a Health Risk Evaluation of the water supply was requested from an environmental toxicologist in the Division of Waste Management. The Health Risk Evaluation has been attached. If you have any questions, please contact me at the address or telephone number listed below. Sincerely, Brad C. Newton, P.G. Hydrogeologist Mooresville Regional Office UST Section, Division of Waste Management, NCDEQ Attachments: Little Sample Analytical Results Health Risk Evaluation cc: KB’s Auto Mobile Detailing – 5683 NC Highway 150 E Denver, NC 28037 Catawba County Health Department County Manager, Catawba County July 13, 2023 TO: Brad Newton Mooresville Regional Office NC UST Section RE: Health Risk Evaluation Incident # 3898 Little Well Sampling Results 5683 East NC Highway 150 Denver, NC During this sampling event, two contaminants were detected in the well water. The standards used to determine if the water is suitable for drinking and cooking are the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCLs) or, if no MCLs exist, North Carolina Groundwater Standards (2L). If any contaminant concentrations exceed applicable standards for using the water for drinking and cooking, those contaminant concentrations are further analyzed to determine if the water is suitable for other household uses, such as showering, bathing, washing dishes, flushing toilets, and hand washing. The chart below compares the detected contaminant concentrations with the applicable standards: Sample ID Contaminant Concentration (µg/L) MCL (µg/L) 2L (µg/L) 99385 Chloroform 0.500 80* 1,2-Dichloroethane 1.62 5 µg/L – Micrograms of contaminant per liter of water, roughly equivalent to parts per billion. * As total trihalomethanes. RECOMMENDATION: None of the contaminants detected exceed the applicable water standards. Therefore, no restrictions on the use of this water are recommended at this time. Although none of the contaminant levels exceed the applicable regulatory values, the level of 1,2-dichloroethane in this well exceeds 0.5 µg/L, the value recommended by the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS). The well user may want to contact the Private Well and Health program at (919) 707- 5900 for more information.
