Subject: Semi-annual Leachate Sampling Results – September 2016
Duke Energy Carolinas, LLC
Allen Steam Station
Retired Ash Basin (RAB) Ash Landfill, Phase I, Cells 1 and 2, Permit #36-12

Dear Ms. Werner:

In accordance with the landfill Operations Plan, Duke Energy is providing the results of semi-
annual leachate sampling for the Allen Retired Ash Basin (RAB) Ash Landfill located in Belmont,
North Carolina.

On September 19, 2016, leachate samples were collected from the leachate collection system.
The samples were collected by Duke Energy personnel. A summary of sampling results can be
found in Table 1. As noted in the table, 15 NCAC 2L .0202 standards are provided for reference
only. The parameters tested are not bound by state groundwater or surface water standards. The
leachate is conveyed to the station’s ash impoundment, which discharges via a NPDES permitted
outfall. All laboratory analytical and field results are provided as Attachments 1 and 2, respectively.

Duke Energy personnel sample landfill leachate at Allen Steam Station’s RAB Ash Landfill semi-
annually during March and September. The next landfill leachate sampling event will occur during
March 2017 with documentation to follow.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me at 704-382-4761 or at
[e-mail]

Sincerely,
Sean DeNeale, Engineer III
Environmental Services

Data Flags & Calculations:
Any analytical tests or individual analytes within a test flagged with a Qualifier indicate a deviation from the method quality
system or quality control requirement. The qualifier description is found at the end of the Certificate of Analysis (sample results)
under the qualifiers heading. All results are reported on a dry weight basis unless otherwise noted. Subcontracted data
included on the Duke Certificate of Analysis is to be used as information only. Certified vendor results can be found in the
subcontracted lab final report. Duke Energy Analytical Laboratory subcontracts analyses to other vendor laboratories that have
been qualified by Duke Energy to perform these analyses except where noted.
Data Package:
This data package includes analytical results that are applicable only to the samples described in this narrative. An estimation of
the uncertainty of measurement for the results in the report is available upon request. This report shall not be reproduced, except
