REGAN Secretary MICHAEL SCOTT Director May 5, 2017 Mr. Gregory Daniel Neel 2765 Union Ridge Road Burlington, NC 27217 Re: Health Risk Evaluation of Water Supply Tracking ID: Incident #12913, WSW-2765, McMillan Well Dear Mr. Neel: Please find attached the Sample Analytical Results for water samples collected from your well, identified as WSW-2765, located at 2765 Union Ridge Road, Burlington, Alamance County, on February 28, 2017. The samples were collected and analyzed as part of the investigation of a petroleum release in the vicinity. The water samples were analyzed for specific target analytes (contaminants), which are listed on the attached Sample Analytical Results. Contaminants were detected in the water samples, as shown on the attached Sample Analytical Results. Because contaminants were detected in the water samples, 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. The water supply well at this property is treated by a Point-of-Entry treatment system to remove contaminants. Water samples were taken at three points on the system. A Health Risk Evaluation was performed for any of the samples that contained contaminants above the detection limits. The post-treatment sample contained an amount of chloromethane that did not exceed the applicable water standard. 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 Winston-Salem Regional Office.
