Duke Energy proposes that the Part 1 CAP reports (submitted 90 days after the Groundwater Assessment
Reports were submitted) include: background information, a brief summary of the CSA findings, a brief
description of site geology and hydrogeology, a summary of the previously completed receptor survey, a
description of 2L and 2B exceedances, proposed site -specific groundwater background concentrations, a
detailed description of the site conceptual model, and groundwater flow and transport modeling. Part 2
would contain the remainder of the CAP including the risk assessment, alternative methods for achieving
restoration, conceptual plans for recommended corrective actions, implementation schedule, and a plan
for future monitoring and reporting.
