Dear Mr. Wynne:
Pursuant to Session Law 2015-241, Section 14.16B, 38690, Incident Number 38690, has been
ranked as Low Risk.
North Carolina General Statute (NCGS) 143B-279.9 and 143B-279.11 require a Notice of Residual
Petroleum (Notice) to be filed with the Register of Deeds in Pitt County, where the release is located, when
a release from an underground storage tank has not been remediated to below “unrestricted use standards”.
The Notice is required either prior to conveyance of a contaminated property or prior to receiving a Notice
of No Further Action. “Unrestricted use standards” for groundwater are the groundwater quality standards
and interim standards contained in Title 15A NCAC 2L .0202, and “unrestricted use standards” for soil are
the residential maximum soil contaminant concentrations (MSCCs) established in Title 15A NCAC 2L
.0411. The Notice must be filed for soil and groundwater.
The Notice must be prepared in accordance with the attached instructions and format. It must
contain a legal description of the property containing the source of contamination and legal descriptions of
any other properties which you own (or control) which are contaminated by the release. The Notice must
also include appropriate land use restrictions for these properties. In addition, the Notice must identify all
other properties (adjacent, adjoining, downgradient, etc.) on which contamination is known to exist at the
time the Notice is prepared.
The Notice must be sent to this regional office of the UST Section within 30 days of the date of
this letter for approval and notarization. The approved and notarized Notice must then be filed by you with
the Register of Deeds, and a certified copy of the filed Notice must be submitted to this office within 30
days of its return to you.
Failure to comply with this letter is a violation of North Carolina law and may result in the
assessment of civil penalties and/or the use of other enforcement mechanisms available to the state. If you
have any questions regarding this letter, please contact Allison Ward at the address or telephone number
for the Regional Office listed below.
Sincerely,
