Well Construction/Abandonment Permit No. WV0100033
Variance Request to Rule 15A NCAC 2C. .0113(b)(1)(A)
Property located at 611 Brevard Road,Asheville, NC
Buncombe County, NC
Dear Mr. Krause:
On July 9, 2009, the Asheville Regional Office of the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received your request
for a variance to the well construction rules, specifically, a variance request to Rule 15A NCAC 2C. .0113(b)(1)(A).
This rule requires a well's casing to be removed entirely prior to abandonment or properly grouted in accordance with
15A NCAC 2C .0107(e) (i.e., 20 ft below land surface).On July 1, 2009 DWQ issued you a variance denial letter and
instructed you to abandon the subject supply well due to insufficient grout and the location of the well.
Due to the inherent difficulty in removing well casing from consolidated rock formations, we are granting your
variance request that the well not have to be grouted to standards prior to permanent abandonment. However, you
should"make an effort to remove the casing entirely if possible thereby negating this permit and its conditions entirely.
Specific permit conditions are attached and should aid in mitigating any potential problems that could adversely affect
groundwater in the vicinity of the well. Permit conditions are enforceable under North Carolina law.
The granting of this permit, which includes a variance, is for the abandonment of the well only, and in no way
relieves the owner or agent from other,requirements of the North Carolina Well Construction Standards, or any other
applicable law, rule or regulation that may be regulated by other agencies. If you are dissatisfied with this decision, you
may commence a contested case by filing a petition under G.S. 150-23 within sixty (60) days after receipt of the decision.
A copy of this permit, which includes a variance, should be attached to the required Well Construction Abandonment
Record (GW-30).
If you have any questions regarding this variance, please contact Landon Davidson at 296-4500.
