Dear Mr. Atwell:
Information received by this regional office of the Underground Storage Tank Section, Division of Waste
Management, on April 14, 2023, 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. (Be aware that 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).

Carolina General Statutes 143B-279.9 and 143B-279.11).
Failure to comply with the State's rules in the manner and time specified may result in the assessment of
