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 performed by an environmental toxicologist in the Division of Waste Management. The Health Risk Evaluation, which is attached also, compares the detected concentration of contaminants to acceptable concentrations and provides a recommendation for safe use of the water. If you have any questions, please contact Dave Lilley at (919) 707-8241 or contact me at the address or telephone number listed below for the Mooresville Regional Office. Sincerely, Brad C. Newton, P.G. Hydrogeologist Mooresville Regional Office UST Section, Division of Waste Management, NCDEQ Attachments: Smith Sample Analytical Results Health Risk Evaluation cc: Gaston County Health Department Gaston County Manager October 10, 2023 TO: Brad Newton Mooresville Regional Office NC UST Section RE: Health Risk Evaluation Incident # 40718 Smith Well Sampling Results 1924 Perfection Road Belmont, NC During this sampling event, one contaminant was 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 the contaminant concentration exceeds the applicable standard for using the water for drinking and cooking, the contaminant concentration is 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 concentration with the applicable standard: Sample ID Contaminant Concentration (µg/L) MCL (µg/L) 2L (µg/L) 92689184011 Methyl-tert-butyl ether 0.61 20 µg/L – Stands for micrograms of contaminant per liter of water and is roughly equivalent to parts per billion. RECOMMENDATION: The detected contaminant did not exceed the applicable water standard. Therefore, no restrictions on the use of this water are recommended at this time.
