RE: Public Outreach Letter Report
Lane’s Cleaners
212 East Cornwallis Street
Greensboro, Guilford County, NC
DSCA Site ID DC410065
Dear Ms. Rivera:
ATC Associates of North Carolina, P.C. (ATC) has prepared this report to document public
outreach activities at the above referenced site. The work was performed under contract to the
North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality Dry-cleaning Solvent Cleanup Act
Program as authorized in State Lead Authorization for Work #001.
On August 21, 2024, ATC mailed a prenotification letter to the source property owner/DSCA
Petitioner. The purpose of the prenotification letter was to give the recipient advanced notice to
public outreach activities as part of site-related work. The prenotification letter informed the
recipient that survey forms and letters would be mailed to the surrounding public on August 28,
2024, which serve two main purposes: (1) to inform the public about the ongoing assessment and
(2) to gather data on potential water supply wells in the vicinity. The recipient was also given
contact information for the ATC Project Manager and the DSCA Program Manager, in the event
the owner had questions regarding the mailing, and an example letter that would be sent to the
public.
On August 28, 2024, ATC mailed Dry-Cleaning Solvent Contamination outreach letters to all
owners of off-source properties located within 500 feet of the Lane’s Cleaners site. Each letter
was mailed via United States Postal Service (USPS) and was accompanied by a Water Supply
Well Information Request Form to be filled out and returned to ATC in the provided self-
addressed and stamped envelope. ATC issued 29 letters to property owners in the area inquiring
about 46 properties. Water Supply Well Information Request Forms were completed and
returned for 30 properties. One letter was returned to ATC as undeliverable. Based on the
responses, no water supply wells were identified.

In addition, ATC mailed Dry-Cleaning Solvent Contamination outreach letters to the Interim
Greensboro City Manager, the Guilford County Health Director, and the Guilford County
Environmental Health Supervisor via USPS on August 28, 2024. All letters included a figure
indicating which property owners in the site vicinity would receive an outreach letter. ATC did
not receive comments from any entity in response to the outreach letters.
A public outreach table with response information is included as Table 1. A public outreach map
indicating property owners that were notified, property owners that responded to the mailing, and
letters that were undeliverable is included as Figure 1. Copies of the prenotification letter that
was sent to the source property owner, letters sent to the local government entities, and an
example letter sent to private property owners are included as Appendix A.
ATC appreciates the opportunity to assist you with this project. If you have questions or require
additional information, please do not hesitate to contact us at (919) 871-0999.
Sincerely,
ATC Associates of North Carolina, P.C.

water supply wells, installing and sampling of groundwater monitoring wells, soil sampling, indoor
air sampling, etc. Obtaining samples from private properties may be a part of this investigation.
