Glendale Springs, Ashe County, NC DWM Incident #6146 Dear Mr. and Ms. Smith: The North Carolina Division of Waste Management, Underground Storage Tank Section is conducting an
environmental assessment at the referenced site. As part of the assessment, samples were collected from water supply wells in the area on April 13, 2010 for analysis of volatile organic compounds. According to the laboratory,
the water sample collected from the supply well at your property contained isopropyl ether and methyl tertiary butyl ether at concentrations of 0.97 micrograms per liter (µg/l), and 1.6µg/l, respectively. A portion of the analytical report is attached. The North Carolina water quality standards for isopropyl ether and methyl tertiary
butyl ether are 70 µg/l and 20 µg/l, respectively. The compounds were detected at concentrations below the North Carolina Standards. If you have any questions regarding the sampling results, the DWM UST Section recommends contacting the Ashe County Health Director.
