Incident Number 17199 Risk Classification: Low Ranking: Low
Dear Mr. Helton:
A review of information on file with the Underground Storage Tank (UST) Section, Division of Waste Management, Green Square Central Office indicates that soil contamination does not exceed the soil screening levels established by the UST Section and the constituent specific
groundwater contamination does not exceed the groundwater quality standards established in Title
15A NCAC 2L .0202. The UST Section determines no further action is warranted for this incident. All required actions have been completed. As soil contamination exceeds the lower of the soil-to-groundwater or
residential MSCCs, public notice in accordance with 15A NCAC 2L. 0409(b) has been completed.
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. 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.
