contaminant concentrations established in 15A NCAC 2L .0115(m) or the soil cleanup levels
established by the Department in the Groundwater Section Guidelines for the Investigation and
Remediation of Soil and Groundwater (March 1997). A review of the file information also shows
that contaminated groundwater does not exceed gross contamination levels that were established in
ISA NCAC 2L .0115(g).
Based on information provided to date, the UST Section detennines that no further action
is warranted for this incident. This determination is conditional pending completion of the public
notice specified below. Once proper public notice has been given, this determination will apply
unless the UST Section later determines that the discharge or release poses an unacceptable risk or
a potentially unacceptable risk to human health or the environment.
Please be advised that because contaminated groundwater has not been restored to the level
of the standard or interim standard established in 15A NCAC 2L .0202, groundwater within the area

assigned to the discharge or release. Such changes include, but are not limited to, changes in zoning
of real property, use of real property or the use of groundwater that has been contaminated or is
expected to be contaminated by the discharge or release, if such change could cause the UST Section
to reclassify the risk. Please note that this responsibility not only pertains to changes involving the
property on which the release occurred, but to changes involving the surrounding properties as well.
Please be advised that you must comply with the public notice requirements of ISA NCAC
2L .0115(k) as specified below. If public notice is not provided as required, this no further
