Dear Amran S. Hussein:
Information received by this regional office of the Underground Storage Tank Section, Division of Waste
Management, on July 20, 2020, confirms a release or discharge from a petroleum underground storage tank
(UST) system at the above-referenced location. Records indicate that you are the owner or operator of this
UST system. Therefore, as a responsible party, you must comply with the initial response and abatement
action requirements of the Title 15A of the North Carolina Administrative Code (NCAC), Subchapter 02L
.0404 and, if applicable, the assessment and reporting requirements of Title 15A NCAC 02L .0405, within
the timeframes specified in the attached rules. If Title 15A NCAC 02L .0405 is applicable, you must
comply with its requirements even if you do not receive formal notification from the UST Section.
Initial abatement action requirements include the preparation and submittal of an Initial Abatement Action
(IAA) Report, in accordance with Title 15A NCAC 02L .0404 and the most recent version of the Guidelines
for Site Checks, Tank Closure, and Initial Response and Abatement, within 90 days of discovery of the
release.
Because a release or discharge has been confirmed, a Licensed Geologist or a Professional Engineer,
certified by the State of North Carolina, is required to prepare and certify all reports submitted to the
Department of Environmental Quality in accordance with Title 15A NCAC 02L .0103(e) and 02L .0111(e).
Please note that before you sell, transfer, or request a “No Further Action” determination for a property that
has not been remediated to below “unrestricted use” standards, you must file a Notice of Residual Petroleum
