MOORESVILLE REGIONAL OFFICE
DWO-GROUNDWATER SECTION
On behalf of Southern States Cooperative, Inc. (Southern States), MACTEC Engineering and
Consulting, Inc., formerly Law Engineering and Environmental Services, Inc. (MACTEC) has
completed the first and second semi-annual ground -water sampling events for 2003 at the subject
site (Figure 1). The work was performed according to MACTEC's Meeting Notes — March 5,
2003 Site Visit, dated March 20, 2003. This report briefly outlines our recently completed field
activities and the results of the ground -water analyses.
Background
The previous schedule of sampling and reporting consisted of semi-annual sampling and analysis
from selected site monitoring wells for nitrite and nitrate. The semi-annual sampling was
performed during April and October of each year. Ground water was recovered from recovery
wells RW-2 and RW-4 five months of the year (November, through March), followed by no
pumping for seven months (April through October). Cyclical pumping allows ground water to
recover in all of the monitoring wells during the time when the recovery wells are not operating,
thus enabling them all to be sampled. The monitoring wells are sampled and analyzed for nitrite
and nitrate. Recovery wells are also sampled for nitrite and nitrate but only during the time when
they operate.
As a result of the Report Review and Site Reranking correspondence dated September 17, 2002,
the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NCDENR) requested the
spring 2003 semi-annual sampling event be conducted approximately one month after the recovery

system was shut down to allow the ground -water table to return to non -pumping elevations.
Additionally, NCDENR requested the analysis of ammonia in addition to nitrate and nitrite for the
spring 2003 sampling event. On March 5, 2003, a site meeting was held at the facility between
representatives of Southern States, MACTEC, and Mr. Matt Heller of NCDENR. At this time we
discussed the current operation of the recovery system and sampling and reporting schedule. Mr.
Heller requested continuation of semi-annual sampling from the site monitoring wells in April and
October of each year and annual reporting by November 30 of each year.
Recovery and Monitoring Well Abandonment and Replacement
The realignment of US 70 through the site necessitated that North Carolina Department of
Transportation (NCDOT) acquire a right-of-way through the property (see Figure 2). This right-
of-way will encompass an area within which three of our monitoring wells and one of the recovery
wells (i.e., RW-4; see Figure 2) were located at the site. Therefore, MACTEC abandoned the three
monitoring wells K65W7 "A", K65W7 "H" and K65W7 "I" and recovery well RW-4 and replaced
them in August 2004. The three new wells K65W7 "J", K65W7 "K", K65W7 "L" and the
recovery well RW-6 were installed to the northeast of the abandoned wells. The new wells were
surveyed to a relative elevation. Additionally, a top of casing (TOC) measurement for the well was
recorded relative to well K65W6 "D". Well construction details/construction records and well
completion logs are provided in Appendix'A. Well locations are shown on Figure 2.
Field Sampling
On April 16, 2004, and October 28, 2004, MACTEC collected representative samples of ground
water from on -site monitoring wells (Figure 2). Depths to ground water were measured at each
monitoring well prior to well purging and are summarized in Table 1. Ground -water flow for the
site is illustrated on the ground -water contour maps for each sampling event (Figures 3 and 4). The
contours represent equipotential lines for the respective set of data. The natural direction of ground-
water flow is toward the south-southwest.
Field sampling procedures followed those normally employed to gather ground -water samples
from monitoring wells and were outlined in the approved Corrective Action Plan (CAP) of January
28, 1994 for ground -water recovery. Each well was first purged to bring fresh formation water
into the well. A volume of water equal to at least three well volumes (or to dryness twice) was
2

removed from each well prior to sampling. Disposable bailers and new polypropylene rope were
used to collect each sample. Field indicator parameters of pH, temperature, and specific
conductivity were measured with calibrated meters after purging each well volume of ground
water.
The semi-annual ground -water monitoring program consists of sampling the following wells:
K65W6 "A"
K65W6 "E"
K65W7 "D"
K65W7 "H"
K65W7 "L"
K65W6 `B"

K65W7 "J"
RW-4
K65W6 "D"
K65W7 "C"
K65W7 "G"
K65W7 "K"
RW-5
During the April 16, 2004 sampling event, Wells K65W6 "D", K65W7 "C", K65W7 "E", and
K65W7 "G" did not have sufficient water to purge or sample. During the October 28, 2004
sampling event, Wells K65W6 "D" and K65W7 "C" did not have sufficient water to purge or
sample. During the October 28, 2004 sampling event, Wells K65W7 `B" and K65W7 "B" could
not be located.
Monitoring well K65W6 "C" was covered with fill material due to previous construction activities
at the site, and as a result was inaccessible for future reporting periods. Therefore, this well could
not be purged or sampled during the reporting period.
Ground -water samples were placed in laboratory provided containers and delivered on ice to Pace
Analytical Laboratories, Inc. in Huntersville, North Carolina. Ground -water temperature, specific
conductance, and pH were measured at the time of sampling and are provided in Table 2.
Analytical Results
On April 16, 2004 the indicator parameters (pH, temperature and specific conductivity) were
measured at each well, prior to sample collection. The results of the field parameters are
summarized in Table 2. Specific conductance of the ground -water samples ranged from 81.4
µmhos/cm (K65W7 "D") to 2,930 µmhos/cm (K65W6 "A"). Values of pH ranged from 4.0
(K65W7 "A") to 7.63 (K65W6 "E"). The temperature of the ground -water samples ranged from
12.7 °C (K65W7 "D") to 18.0 °C (K65W6"B").

The samples were analyzed for nitrate -nitrogen in accordance with EPA Methods 353.2-354.1.
Additionally, the samples were analyzed for ammonia at the request of NCDENR. The analytical
results are summarized in Table 3. A nitrate isopleth map is presented on Figure 5 (April 2004).
Nitrate concentration in samples collected April 16, 2004 ranged from 0.1 mg/L (RW-4) to 200
mg/L (K65W7 "A"). Ammonia concentration in samples collected April 16, 2004 ranged from
<0.10 mg/L (K65W6 "A", K65W6 `B", K65W6 "B", K65W7 `B", K65W7 "D", K65W7 "F" and
K65W7 "I") to 150 mg/L (RW-4).
On October 28, 2004 the indicator parameters (pH, temperature and specific conductivity) were
measured at each well, prior to sample collection. The results of the field parameters are
summarized in Table.2. Specific conductance of the ground -water samples ranged from 127.8
µmhos/cm (K65W7 "D") to 2,905 µmhos/cm (K65W6 "A"). Values of pH ranged from 3.64
(K65W6 `B") to 12.20 (K65W7 "L"). The temperature ranged from 14.7 °C (K65W7 "F",
K65W7 "J" and K65W7 "K") to 17.0 °C (K65W6 "E").
The samples were analyzed for nitrate -nitrogen and nitrite -nitrogen in accordance with EPA
Methods 353.2-354.1 and 353.2, respectively. The analytical results are summarized in Table 3.
A nitrate isopleth map is presented on Figure 6 (October 2004). Nitrate concentration in samples
collected October 28, 2004 ranged from <0.10 mg/L (K65W7 "F") to 150 mg/L (K65W6 "A").
Nitrite was detected in wells K65W7 "J" (0.3 mg/L) and K65W7 "K" 0.78 mg/L) during the
October 28, 2004 sampling event. Nitrite was not detected in the other wells that were sampled
above the laboratory reporting limit during the October 28, 2004 sampling event.
Remediation System Information
During this reporting period, (November 2003 — October 2004) recovery well RW-2 was in
operation from December 22, 2003 through April 2, 2004. Recovery well RW-2 pumped at an
average rate of approximately 57 gallons per minute (gpm).
Conclusions
The following conclusions can be summarized from the previous sections with regard to the
ground -water sampling activities at the subject property:

December 22, 2004
• There was a slight increase. in the nitrate concentrations in the new monitoring wells
K65W7 "J", K65W7 "K" and K65W7 "L" in comparison to the previous sampling events
of the wells that were replaced (K65W7 "A", K65W7 "H" and K65W7 "I").
• Nitrite has not been detected in any of the site monitoring wells above the ground -water
standard of 1.0 mg/L as established in Title 15A of the North Carolina Administrative
Code, Subchapter 2L, Part .0202 since October 1993.
Recommendations
Based upon the results of the ground -water sampling activities, MACTEC recommends the
following:
• Continuation of semi-annual ground -water sampling for the site monitoring wells in April
and October of each year.
• Submittal of an annual report by November 30 of each year.
• Continuation of pulsed pumping for the ground -water remediation system.

through our client's property located in Statesville, North Carolina (see Figure 1). This proposed
realignment of US 70 has necessitated that North Carolina. Department of Transportation
(NCDOT) acquire a right-of-way through our client's property at Statesville (see Figure 2). This
right-of-way will encompass an area within which three of our monitoring wells and one of the
recovery. wells (i.e., RW-4; see Figure 2) are located at the site. Therefore, the purpose of this
letter is to request permission to abandon these four wells shown on Figure 2 and replace themin
proposed new locations north of both their existing locations and of the proposed NCDOT right-
of-way.
MACTEC proposes to disconnect the electrical systems at the recovery well and remove them
(i.e., control panel, pump, etc.) prior to the commencement of the proposed abandonment of
these four wells. Each well will be sounded for a measurement of the total depth prior to
abandonment. Each well will be disinfected using a calcium hypochlorite solution containing
approximately 70% chlorine. Abandonment of these wells will be completed by
removing/cutting down the well casing to ground surface and backfilling each borehole with
cement/bentonite grout mix. This grout mix will be placed within the well using a tremie pipe
placed to the bottom of each well. Each well will be grouted from the bottom to. the top. Upon
achieving a return of the grout mix at the ground surface the tremie pipe will be removed from
the well.
Since the commencement of the ground -water recovery system at this site, the recovery
capability of the system has been appreciably less (i.e., lower ground -water withdrawal rates) in
the northern area of the constituent plume compared to the southern area of the constituent
plume. Therefore, MACTEC recommends that these monitoring wells and therecovery well be
replaced on the north side of the proposed NCDOT right-of-way. Hence, the new location for
the monitoring wells and recovery well shall be north of the proposed alignment for US 70 and
within 50 feet of the existing ground -water discharge line from RW-2 and RW-4, and the
electrical conduit line. The proposed locations for the replacement wells are shown in Figure 2.

The drilling of these wells shall be preceded with a soil boring using auger drilling with blow
counts and collection of soil samples for characterizing the subsurface formations. Soil samples
will be obtained every 5 feet to auger refusal from the borehole employing split -spoon sampling
techniques. These soil samples will be used to describe the soils encountered in.the boring.
The auger drilling shall continue to auger refusal. Estimated depth to auger refusal is 120 feet.
The results of the drilling of this borehole will be used to determine the depths of the proposed
monitoring wells.
Summary details of the existing wells and the identification of the proposed replacement wells are
as follows:

The borehole shall be converted to new replacement monitoring well K65W7"K". The borehole
will be reamed out to 10-inch diameter to the top of rock. A 4-inch diameter solid PVC casing
will be installed to the top of rock. This casing shall be grouted in place by tremie pipe from
bottom to ground surface. The grout around the casing will be allowed to set for 24 hours.
Following that, a 10-foot corehole will be cored using NQ core barrels below the bottom of the
casing. The core will be retained in a core box for characterization by a registered geologist.
Following the completion of the mid -depth monitoring well, we propose to drill an 8-inch
diameter borehole for shallow monitoring well (i.e., K65W7"J") to an estimated depth of 65 feet
below ground surface. This depth will be determined from the soil boring described previously.
A 2-inch diameter 10-foot long 0.010" slotted Schedule 40 PVC well screen with solid PVC well
casing will be installed to ground surface. A fine sand will be placed around the well screen to
two feet above the top of the well screen by tremie pipe. Two -feet of bentonite shall be placed
above the sand pack. The annulus will be grouted with cement/bentonite mix from the bottom to
ground surface by tremie pipe.
The last monitoring well (i.e., K65WT L') will be drilled with a 12-inch diameter borehole to the
top of rock, an estimated depth of 120 feet below ground surface. An 8-inch steel or PVC casing
will be installed to the 120-foot depth and grouted from the bottom.to ground surface by tremie
pipe. A 6-inch diameter bore hole will be air drilled to an approximate depth of 180 feet below
ground surface. A 4-inch diameter Schedule 40 solid PVC well casing will be installed to ground
surface. The annulus will be grouted with cement/bentonite mix from bottom to top by tremie
pipe. The grout seal around the casing will be allowed to set for 24 hours. Subsequently a 20-
foot.NQ hole will be cored below the bottom of casing. This core will be retained in a core box
for characterization by a registered geologist.
All three monitoring wells will be finished with above ground aluminum locking protective
covers. Each of these three monitoring wells will be developed for a minimum of two 'hours
either by pump or air.
Based on the findings from the installation of the three monitoring wells a depth for the recovery
well will be selected. Subsequently a 14-inch diameter hole will be drilled to a depth of 150 feet
below ground surface. A 6-inch diameter 100-foot long 0.010" wire wound Stainless Steel well
screen with solid steel well casing will be installed to ground surface. A fine sand will be placed

around the well screen to 2 feet above the top of the well screen by tremie pipe. Two -feet of
bentonite shall be placed above the .sand pack. The annulus will be grouted with a
cement/bentonite mix from the bottom to ground surface by tremie pipe. This well will be the
replacement well RW-6. Subsequently Recovery Well RW-6 will be developed for a minimum
of two hours.
The equipment associated with the recovery well (i.e., vault, piping, electrical, control panel,
pump, etc.) will be placed within and around Recovery Well RW-6. The pump discharge will be
connected to the existing discharge line. A sampling port and flow meter will be connected to the
discharge line. The power will be tapped from the existing power line and run in a conduit to the
vault adjacent to RW-6. The recovery system will be tested prior to demobilization from the site.
A driller certified in North Carolina will install these wells. Following their completion, the
location of.these wells will be surveyed. Upon the completion of the survey MACTEC will
submit the abandonment forms to NCDENR and a set of well completion forms for the new
wells.

RE: Report Review and Site Reranking
Southern States Facility (Wayside Estates)
GW Incident No. 5038
Iredell County, N.C.
On May 13, 2002, I received a "Three Year Monitoring Report" for the subject site. On
August 23, 2002, I received an updated water supply well survey. Thank you for your submission
Of this information. I have completed my review of both reports. In response to the updated well
survey, I have reranked the site. The current site ranking is 90 B. This ranking increases the level
of regulatory oversight. It has no effect on groundwater clean-up requirements.
During my review of the monitoring report, 1 noted that it was well organized and written.
Based upon my review of the report, I am requesting that you continue semi-annual monitoring
through at least spring 2003. Due to the ongoing drought, I am requesting that the spring 2003
sampling event be conducted at least one month after the remediation system has been turned off
to allow the water table to return to non -pumping levels. This sampling event, at the approximate
time of the seasonal high water table, will afford the best opportunity to collect data from the largest
number of wells. During this sampling event, I request that you analyze all samples for ammonia
in addition to nitrate.
If you think that it would be beneficial for comparison purposes, you may also conduct a
sampling event immediately prior to system shutdown in March/April 2003. You may complete this
sampling event in addition to, or in lieu of the October/November 2002 sampling event. After the
results of the spring 2003 sampling event have been reviewed, I would like to meet with you and
Matt Gustis at the site. During our visit, I would like to discuss the following:
1. Options that may allow for operation of the recovery system throughout the year;
2. The possibility of increasing groundwater recovery in the vicinity of recovery well RW-
5;
3. The possibility of reducing the groundwater recovery in the vicinity of recovery well
RW-1;
4. The relocation of wells due to the NC DOT road project;
5. Existing data gaps;

are pleased to submit this Meeting Notes — March 5, 2003 Site Visit for the Southern States
facility. The following individuals attended the March 5, 2003 meeting held at the Southern
States fertilizer facility located in Statesville, North Carolina:
Matt Heller, P.G. Division of Water Quality, NCDENR
Jim Wright, P.E. Southern States Cooperative, Inc.
Vance Dann Southern States Cooperative, Inc.
Matthew Gustis, P.E. MACTEC
After introductions, Matt Heller stated that he would like to walk the site to see the location of the
current remediation system, the former ponds, and the area to be impacted by future North
Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) construction activities. Additionally, Matt
Heller stated that he would like to discuss the issues brought up in his Report Review and Site
Reranking correspondence dated September 17, 2002.
Mr. Gustis described the current operation of the ground -water recovery system. It consists of
three pumping wells (RW-2, RW-4, and RW-5), a pH adjustment holding tank, and a National
Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit to discharge the effluent to the waters
of North Carolina. Mr. Gustis continued to explain the historical operation of the system and the
relative efficiency of each well. Recovery Well RW-5 is installed to a total depth of 70 feet
below grade with a screened interval from 50-feet to 70-feet below grade which extends into the
top ten feet of the partially weathered rock. Recovery Well RW-5 maintains a.pumping rate of 1
gallon per minute (gpm). Recovery Well RW-4 is installed to a total depth of 103 feet below
grade with a screened interval from 28-feet to 103-feet below grade which extends into the top
ten feet of fractured bedrock. Recovery Well RW-4 maintains a pumping rate of 4 to 8 gpm.
Recovery Well RW-2 is installed to a total depth of 162 feet below grade with a 6-inch open hole
borehole extending approximately 129 feet into fractured bedrock. RW-2 maintains a pumping
rate of 50 to 60 gpm. The system is operational from November 1 through March 31. It is shut
down during the summer months due to historically high concentrations of ammonia which have
exceeded the NPDES permit limitations.
Mr. Heller questioned the storage and handling processes at the facility. Jim Wright stated that
Southern States currently mixes and stores fertilizers at the property. All process water is
obtained through an on -site water supply well and stored in a water tank. This process water is

recirculated within the plant without exterior discharge. Historically, discharge water was
discharged into holding ponds located near the southwestern portion of the property. Mr. Heller
inquired about the on -site water supply well. Later discussions with Danny Rose of Southern
States indicated that the water supply well can pump a capacity of 65,000 gallons per day (gpd)
and is 260 feet deep. Typically, the facility utilizes approximately 30,000 gpd during the peak
season.
We further discussed the proposed NCDOT construction activities at the facility. Mr. Gustis
explained that the NCDOT will be constructing an expansion of Highway 70 through a portion of
the property. Recovery Well RW-4 and Monitoring Wells K65W7"A," K65W7"H," and
K65W7"I" are within the proposed right-of-way and will have to be abandoned and reinstalled.
MACTEC, as requested by the NCDOT, has submitted a proposal to abandon and reinstall the
aforementioned monitoring and recovery wells and to install a conduit underneath the proposed
roadway to reroute the discharge piping for RW-2. MACTEC is still coordinating with the
NCDOT on these issues.
We discussed options for operation of the recovery system throughout the year. Mr. Heller would
like Southern States to perform their next semi-annual sampling event at the end of April 2003,
approximately one month after system operations have ceased. At this time he would like to
sample for ammonia in addition to nitrates and nitrites from the monitoring and recovery wells.
An evaluation can be made at a later time as to the benefit of operating the system year round.
Mr. Gustis pointed out that MACTEC's findings in their Three Year Monitoring Report, dated
May 9, 2002, indicated that the benefits of seasonal pumping were similar to those of continuous
pumping. Based upon nitrate mass extraction rates per gallon of 150.8 kilograms per million
gallons for continuous pumping versus 135.0 kilograms per million gallons for seasonal pumping
and the fact that nitrate extraction rates decline asymptotically with increased time of continuous
pumping, seasonal pumping appears to be beneficial.
We discussed the possibility of increasing ground -water recovery from RW-5. Mr. Gustis stated
that RW-5 has historically pumped at a rate of approximately one gallon per minute. It
apparently was never installed to a proper depth when the system was installed by Canonie
Environmental. Mr. Gustis presented the option of reinstalling RW-4 further north due to the
NCDOT activities and closer to RW-5 to help capture the higher concentrations of nitrates. Mr.
Heller mentioned the possibility of extending RW-5 deeper. However, as a first step, he was
interested in relocating RW-4 as an option for optimizing the recovery system. We also discussed
the possibility of reducing the recovery from RW-2. Mr. Heller stated to use our judgment on
this issue. Mr. Heller questioned whether or not the off -site water supply wells located west of
the facility have been sampled. Mr. Gustis stated that to the best of his knowledge they have not.
Mr. Heller may sample those wells at a later time. Mr. Heller also discussed the option of
operating the system year round and using the discharge in the summer months for plant process
water. This option may or may not be feasible and would have to be evaluated by Southern
States.
Actions that Mr. Heller would like Southern States to take include:
Collecting ground -water samples from the monitoring and recovery wells
for nitrates, nitrites, and ammonia in April 2003;
Submitting an annual report summarizing the October 2002, and April
and October 2003 semi-annual sampling events by November 30, 2003;
Continuing ground -water monitoring on a semi-annual basis;

DWQ-GROUNDWATER SECTION
On behalf of Southern States Cooperative, Inc. (Southern States), MACTEC Engineering and
Consulting, Inc., formerly Law Engineering and Environmental Services, Inc. (MACTEC) has
completed the second semi-annual ground -water sampling event for 2002 and the first and second
semi-annual ground -water sampling events for 2003 at the subject site (Figure 1). The work was
performed according to MACTEC's Meeting Notes — March 5, 2003 Site Visit, dated March 20,
2003. This report briefly outlines our recently completed field activities and the results of the
ground -water analyses.
Background
The previous schedule of sampling and reporting consisted of semi-annual sampling and analysis
from selected site monitoring wells for nitrite and nitrate. The semi-annual sampling was
performed during April and October of each year. Ground water was recovered from recovery
wells RW-2 and RW-4 five months of the year (November through March), followed by no
pumping for seven months (April through October). Cyclical pumping allows ground water to
recover in all of the monitoring wells during the time when the recovery wells are not operating,
thus enabling them all to be sampled. The monitoring wells are sampled and analyzed for nitrite
and nitrate. Recovery wells are also sampled for nitrite and nitrate but only during the time when
they operate.,
As a result of the Report Review and Site Reranking correspondence dated. September.17, 2002,
the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NCDENR) requested the

spring 2003 semi-annual sampling event be conducted approximately one month after. the recovery
system was shut down to allow the ground -water table .to return to non -pumping elevations.
Additionally, NCDENR requested the analysis of ammonia in addition to nitrate and nitrite. On
March 5, 2003, a site meeting was held.at the facility between representatives of Southern States,
MACTEC, and Mr. Matt Heller of NCDENR. At this time we discussed the.current operation of
the recovery system and sampling and reporting schedule. Mr. Heller requested continuation of
semi-annual sampling from the site monitoring wells in April and October of each year and annual
reporting by November 30 of each year. Additionally, he requested an annual report by November
30, 2003 summarizing the results of the October 2002, May 2003, and October 2003 sampling
events.
Field Sampling
On October 18, 2002, May :2, 2003, and October 17, 2003, MACTEC collected representative
samples of ground water from on -site monitoring wells (Figure 2). Depths to ground water were
measured at each monitoring well prior to well purging and are summarized in Table :1. Ground-
water flow for the site is illustrated on the ground -water contour maps for each sampling event
(Figures 3, 4, and 5). The contours represent equipotential lines for the respective set of data. The
natural direction of ground -water flow is:toward the south-southwest.
Field sampling procedures followed those normally employed to. gather ground -water samples
from monitoring wells and were outlined in the approved Corrective Action Plan (CAP) of January
28, 1994 for ground -water recovery. Each well was first purged to bring fresh formation water
into the well. A volume of water equal to at least three well volumes (or to dryness twice) was
removed from each well prior to sampling. Disposable bailers and new polypropylene rope were
used to collect each sample. Field indicator parameters of pH, temperature, and specific
conductivity were measured with calibrated meters after purging each well volume of ground
water.
The semi-annual ground -water monitoring program consisted of sampling the following wells:
K65W6 "A"
K65W6 "E"
K65W7 "D"
K65W7 "H"

During .the October 18, 2002 sampling event, Wells K65W6 `B", K65W6 "D", K65W7 "A",
K65W7 `B", K65W7 "C", K65W7 "E", and K65W7 "G" did not have sufficient water to purge or
sample. During the May 2, 2003 sampling event, Wells K65W6 "D", K65W7 `B", K65W7 "C",
and K65W7 "E" did not have sufficient water to purge or sample. During the October 17, 2003
sampling event, Well K65W6 "D" did not have sufficient water to purge or sample and Well
K65W7 "E" could not be located.
Monitoring well K65W6 "C" was covered with fill material due to previous construction activities
at the site, and as a result was inaccessible for future reporting periods. Therefore, this well could
not be purged or sampled during the reporting period.
Ground -water samples were placed in laboratory provided containers and delivered on ice to Pace
Analytical Laboratories, Inc. in Huntersville, North Carolina. Ground -water temperature, specific
conductance, and pH were measured in the field at the time of sampling and are provided in Table
2.
Analytical Results
On October 18, 2002 the indicator parameters (pH, temperature and specific conductivity) were
measured at each well, prior to sample collection. The results of the field parameters are
summarized in Table 2. Specific conductance of the ground -water samples ranged from 124.7
µmhos/cm (K65W7 "D") to.3,230 µmhos/cm . (K65W6 "A").. Values of pH ranged from 5.49
(K65W7 "H") to 7.48 (K65W7. "F"). The temperature ranged from 15.6 'C (K65W7 "F") to 19.3
°C (RW-2).
The samples were analyzed for nitrate -nitrogen and nitrite -nitrogen in accordance with EPA
Methods 353.2-354.1 and 353.2, respectively. The analytical results are .summarized in Table 3.
A "nitrite concentration map is presented on Figure 6 (October 2002) and a nitrate isopleth map is
presented on Figure 7 (October 2002). Nitrite results are presented as a concentration. map
because there are insufficient data to generate contours for nitrite concentration. Nitrate
concentration in samples collected October 18, 2002 ranged from 2.4 mg/L (K65W7 "D".) to 170
mg/L (K65W6 "A"). Nitrite was not detected in any of the wells above the laboratory reporting
limit during the October 18, 2002 sampling event.

13.6 °C (K65W7 "G") to 20.8 °C (RW-4).
The samples were analyzed for nitrate -nitrogen and nitrite -nitrogen in accordance with EPA
Methods 353.2-354.1 and 353.2, respectively. Additionally, the samples were analyzed for
ammonia at the request of NCDENR. The analytical results are summarized in Table 3. A nitrite
concentration map is presented on Figure 8 (May 2003) and a nitrate isopleth map is presented on
Figure 9 (May 2003). Nitrite results are presented as a concentration map because there are
insufficient data to generate contours for nitrite concentration. Nitrate concentration in samples
collected May 2, 2003 ranged from 1.3 mg/L (K65W7 "G") to 230 mg/L (K65W7 "A").... Nitrite
was not detected in any of the wells above the laboratory reporting limit during the May 2, 2003
sampling event, except K65W7 "H and RW-4, which contained 0.054 mg/L and 0.12 mg/L,
respectively. Ammonia concentration in samples collected May 2, 2003 ranged from <0.10 mg/L
(K65W6 "A", K65W6 `B", K65W "6E", K65W7 "F", K65W7 "G", and K65W7 ``I") to 150 mg/L
(RW-4).
On October 17, 2003 the indicator parameters (pH, temperature and specific conductivity) were
measured at each well, prior to sample collection. The results of the field parameters are
summarized in Table 2. Specific conductance of the ground -water samples ranged from 149.3

K65W7 "D", K65W7 "F", K65W7 "G", and K65W7 "I") to 9.1 mg/L (K65W7 "C").
Remediation System Information
During this reporting period, (April 2002 — October 2003) recovery wells RW-2 and RW-4 were in
operation from December 17, 2002 through March 31, 2003. Recovery well RW-2 pumped at an
average rate of. approximately 48 gallons per minute (gpm). Recovery well RW-4 pumped at an
average rate of approximately 4 gpm while in operation.
Conclusions
The following conclusions .can be summarized from the previous sections with regard to the
ground -water sampling activities at the subject property:
• There is an overall general .trend toward decreasing nitrate concentrations for the
monitoring wells across the site.
• Based upon the nitrite concentrations, nitrite is not a constituent of concern for this site.
• Nitrite has not been detected in any of the site monitoring wells above the ground -water
standard of 1.0 mg/L as established in. Title 15A of the North .Carolina Administrative
Code, Subchapter 2L, Part.0202 since October 1991.
• Increasing ground -water elevations resulting from rainfall in late 2002 and early 2003
allowed MACTEC to collect samples from site monitoring wells that have historically
been dry (K65W6 "B", K65W7 "A", K65W7 "B", and K65W7 "C").
Recommendations
Based upon the results of the ground -water sampling activities, MACTEC recommends the
following:
• Continuation of semi-annual ground -water sampling for the site monitoring wells in April
and October of each year.
5

2002 — 2003 Annual Report November 26, 2003
Southern States Fertilizer Plant
MACTEC Project No. 30150-6-1318
• Discontinuance of analysis of the semi-annual .ground -water samples for nitrite.
e Submittal of an annual report by November 30 of each year.
• Continuation of pulsed pumping for the ground -water remediation system.
• Due to proposed NCDOT construction activities at the facility which involve an expansion
of Highway 70 through a portion of the property, Recovery Well RW-4 and Monitoring
Wells K65W7"A," K65W7"H," and K65WT I' are within the proposed right-of-way and
will have to be abandoned and reinstalled. MACTEC recommends relocation of RW-4
north/northeast closer to RW-5 in, order to improve system efficiency and recovery of
higher concentrations of nitrates.

Ground -water Incident # 5038
Dear Mr. Heller:
On behalf of Southern States Cooperative, Inc. (Southern States), Law Engineering and
Environmental Services, Inc. (LAW) has completed the first and second semi-annual ground-
water sampling events for 2001 at the subject site (Figure 1). The work was performed according
to LAW's approved Proposed Change to Ground -Water Remediation System Operating and
Reporting Schedule, dated January 27, 1999. This report briefly outlines our recently completed
field activities and the results of the ground -water analyses.
On December 16, 1998, representatives from LAW, Southern States, W.R. Grace & Co. and
Wilson Environmental Management, Inc. met with you regarding proposed changes to the
current operating, sampling and reporting schedule for the subject site. The following report
describes those proposed changes outlined in our letter to you of January 27, 1999. Additionally
this report provides an overview of the past -three years of pulsed pumping and how it compares
to continuous operation of the ground -water remediation system.
Based on a combination of the review of the ground -water remediation effort for the past seven
years, the general trend of reduced nitrate concentrations, and the reduced ranking for this site,
LAW and Southern States request that the ground -water sampling schedule for this site be
reduced to an annual cycle.

LAW Project No. 30150-6-1318
1. INTRODUCTION
Southern States Cooperative, Inc. (Southern States) owns and operates a fertilizer plant located on U.S.
Highway 70 approximately six miles east of Statesville, North Carolina (Figure 1). The facility was
reportedly constructed in the 1950s. Southern States purchased the facility from W.R. Grace & Co. in
February 1988. Various farm and garden fertilizers are manufactured at the plant using raw materials
brought in by truck and rail. The materials are usually off-loaded directly onto conveyor belts for
transfer to storage areas within the plant. Finished products are warehoused on —site pending shipment.
Small warehouse areas at the north end of the main plant and a small building just east of the main plant
are also used to store premixed, bagged products on pallets. These products are sold directly to
consumers without modification by Southern States.
The manufacturing facility is currently self-contained; process water is recirculated within the plant
without exterior discharge. This is possible due to the use of air scrubbers to reduce smokestack
emissions. The scrubbers utilize a "wet" system and the scrubber water is consumed in the granulation
process.
Prior to changes in the scrubber design approximately twenty years ago, process water was discharged
from time.to time. This process water was discharged to two former ponds located approximately 1,000
feet southwest of the plant. Two other ponds were reportedly closed. One of these ponds was located
east of the plant and was reportedly closed approximately thirty years ago. The other pond was located
300 feet southwest of the plant and was reportedly closed in the mid-1980's. The ponds located around
the plant were reportedly unlined. Therefore, the discharge of process water to some of these ponds did
create a situation conducive for potential leakage of these process waters into the subsurface media. In
1989, Southern States retained Law Engineering and Environmental Services, Inc. (LAW) to assist with
the evaluation and remediation at the facility. On December 12, 1989, the North Carolina Department of
Environment and Natural Resources (NCDENR) (formerly the Department of Environment, Health and
Natural Resources [NCDEHNR]) issued a Notice of Violation (NoV) for the site.
The NoV stated that excessive concentrations of nitrate and/or nitrite had been discovered in two wells
located at the site. Additional assessment was required by NCDENR to be conducted at the site. W.R.

LAW Project No. 30150-6-1318
Grace & Co., the primary responsible party, retained Canonie Environmental Services Corporation
(Canonie) to monitor the environmental assessment work for the site. Canonie subsequently contracted
LAW to assist with the fieldwork associated with the assessment of the site. LAW performed the field
work for assessing the extent of the leakage from the .two aforementioned ponds into the subsurface
media. Monitoring wells were installed across the site, south of the plant, and were screened at various
depths below ground surface. The locations of the monitoring wells are shown on Figure 2.
I
LAW performed several hydraulic tests and an aquifer test in October 1991 at the site under the direction
of Canonie in order to acquire the data for the design of the remedial system proposed for the site. On
January 28, 1994, Canonie submitted a corrective action plan for ground -water recovery at the subject
property. Correspondence from NCDENR, dated March 18, 1994, included review comments for the
plan and stated that semi-annual sampling should be conducted until the corrective action system was
operational. Accordingly, LAW collected semi-annual ground -water samples during 1994. The ground-
water recovery system was installed in late 1994. The recovery system became operational in January
1995.

2. BACKGROUND
Ground -water recovery operations began in January 1995; however, the pH of the discharge water was
below National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit limitations. Therefore, a
sodium hydroxide caustic agent was introduced into the wastewater stream in an effort to raise the pH.
Ground -water recovery resumed on June 29, 1995. The ground -water recovery system consisted of three
recovery wells (i.e., RW-2, RW-4 and RW-5). The locations of these recovery wells are shown on Figure
2.
Recovery Well RW-2 is located near the southern property boundary and consists of an open hole in
fractured bedrock from a depth of 37 feet below ground surface to a total depth of 162 feet below ground
surface. Recovery Well RW-4 was installed approximately 650 feet north of Recovery Well RW-2.
Recovery Well RW-4 consists of a 75-foot long screen spanning the bottom ten feet of the residual soil,
partially weathered rock and the upper ten feet of the fractured bedrock. The top of the screen is 28 feet
below ground surface and Recovery Well RW-4 has a total depth of 103 feet below ground surface.
Recovery Well RW-5 was installed approximately 160 feet south-southeast of the plant. Recovery Well
RW-5 consists of a 20-foot long screen spanning the bottom ten feet of the residual soil, and the top ten
feet of the partially weathered rock. The top of the screen is 50 feet below ground surface and the total
depth of Recovery Well RW-5 is approximately 70 feet below ground surface.
Because of the elevated ammonia concentrations present in the recovered ground water from Recovery
Well RW-4, the recovered ground water discharged to Fourth Creek did not meet the ammonia discharge
limits established by NCDENR within the NPDES permit. Therefore, the pumping schedule for the
recovery wells was altered to increase the potential for meeting the discharge limits during the summer
months (i.e., April 1 through October 31). Ground water was recovered continuously from two recovery
wells (RW-2 and RW-5) throughout the entire year and from three recovery wells (RW-2, RW-4 and
RW-5) from November through March. Recovery Well RW-4 was not pumped from April 1 through
October 31 due to the NPDES permit restrictions on ammonia. The monitoring wells at the site were
sampled on a semi-annual schedule, with sampling performed during May and November. of each year.

Southern States Cooperative, Inc. — Three Year Monitoring Report May 9, 2002
Statesville Facility
LAW Project No. 30150-6-1318
In a letter mailed to Southern States, dated November 5, 1998, NCDENR raised some concerns about the
ground -water remediation system. As a result of this letter 'a meeting was held on December 16, 1998 at
the NCDENR office in Mooresville, North Carolina. Representatives from Southern States, W.R. Grace
& Co., LAW and NCDENR were present at this meeting. Several issues were discussed at this meeting
in regard to the ground -water remediation system at the Southern States Statesville facility. These issues
were as follows:
♦ the NCDENR ranking of the site at 150/B was questioned based on a more recent water well
survey;
♦ revised operation of the ground -water remediation system was proposed;
♦ the feasibility of performing a risk assessment for this site was discussed; and
♦ a request to abandon RW-1 and RW-3 was raised by W.R. Grace & Co.
Based on the discussions during the meeting, the latter two issues were dropped from further pursuit at
that time. However, in LAW's Proposed Change to Ground -Water Remediation System Operating and
Reporting Schedule, dated January 27, 1999, the discussions pertaining to the first two issues were
presented in writing and submitted to NCDENR as a basis for reviewing the site ranking and revising the
operation of the ground -water remediation system.
In a letter from NCDENR dated February 17, 1999 the ranking of the site was revised to 30/1) and
NCDENR agreed with the proposed revised operation of the ground -water remediation system.
The goal of the revised operational plan for the ground -water remediation system was to implement
pulsed pumping of the system, rather than continuous pumping. This approach was proposed for the
following reasons:
1. To determine whether or not pulsed pumping will influence recovery efforts more
effectively than continuous pumping;
2. To allow ground water to recover in all of the monitoring wells during the time when the
recovery wells are not operating, thus enabling all of the monitoring wells to be sampled;
and
3. To eliminate the discharges of recovered ground water with ammonia concentrations
exceeding the NPDES discharge limits.

Southern States Cooperative, Inc. — Three Year Monitoring Report May 9, 2002
Statesville Facility
LAW Project No. 30150-6-1318
The pulsed pumping approach involved operation of the three recovery wells (RW-2, RW-4, and RW-5)
for approximately five months of the year (November through March), followed by a period of seven
months (April through October) with no pumping. Recovery wells are also sampled for nitrite and
nitrate, but only during the time when they operate.
The semi-annual sampling schedule for the monitoring wells was altered to match the pumping schedule.
The months in which samples were _to be collected changed from November and March to October and
April. The October sampling event allows for samples to be collected after the system has been off for
seven months prior to the recommencement of the pumping. The April sampling event allows for
samples to be collected after the system has been operating for five months. Reporting was proposed to
change from a semi-annual basis to an annual basis with annual reports submitted to the NCDENR after
the October sampling event. The pulsed pumping schedule would be continued for three years, at the end
of which time a more comprehensive report would be submitted to NCDENR with comments and
recommendations based on the results from the three years of pulsed pumping. A three-year period was
planned because it was thought that would allow enough time for data to be collected to better evaluate
the impact of the pulsed pumping and ground -water remediation at this site.
This report was prepared pursuant to the NCDENR letter approving the pulsed pumping schedule
outlined in LAW's Proposed Change to Ground -Water Remediation System Operating and Reporting
Schedule, dated January 27, 1999. The purpose of this report is to present a summary of the three years
of pulsed pumping of the ground -water remediation system.

3. OPERATIONAL ACTIVITIES
_ As discussed in Section 2 the ground -water remediation system at the Southern States facility
i I commenced operations in January 1995. The period of continuous pumping was continued through to
the end of March '1999. The pulsed pumping schedule began on April 1, 1999 and has continued through
to the end of March 2002. Further details of the operation of the ground -water remediation system are
provided in Section 3.3. Both before the installation of the ground -water remediation system and during
the operation of the ground -water remediation system the site has been monitored on a semi-annual basis.
Monitoring of the ground -water remediation system consisted of measuring depths to ground water in
each of the monitoring wells and the collection of ground -water samples (see Section 3.1) for analysis in
the laboratory for nitrate and nitrite (see Section 3.2).
3.1 Monitoring Activities
For each semi-annual sampling event LAW mobilized to the subject property to collect representative
samples of ground water from the on -site monitoring wells (Figure 2). , Depths to ground water were
measured at each monitoring well prior to well purging and are summarized for three events in Table 1.
These three events were selected to represent the following conditions:
• pre-remediation "natural' conditions (February 18, 1991), which were approximately four years prior
to the commencement of continuous pumping; -
• the end of the period of continuous pumping (March 30, 1999); and
• the end of the period of pulsed pumping (March 28, 2002).
Ground -water flow for the site prior to the commencement of pumping in 1995 is illustrated on the ground-
water contour map (Figure 3). Ground -water contours and flow for the site at the end of the period of
continuous pumping are shown on Figure 4 and at the end of the period of pulsed pumping are shown on
Figure 5. The contours represent equipotential lines for the respective set of data. The natural direction of
ground -water flow is toward the south-southwest.
Field sampling procedures followed those normally used to gather ground -water samples from
monitoring wells and were those outlined in the approved corrective action plan of January 28, 1994 for
ground -water recovery. Each well was first purged to bring fresh formation water into the well.. A
volume of water equal to at least three well volumes (or to dryness twice) was removed from each well
3-1

prior to sampling. Disposable bailers and new polypropylene rope were used to collect each sample.
Indicator parameters (specific conductance, pH and temperature) were measured in the field and have
been reported in previous annual reports. Field indicator parameters of pH, temperature, and specific
conductivity were measured with calibrated electronic meters after purging each well volume of ground
water.
Besides the three active recovery wells located at the site there are fourteen monitoring wells that are
regularly sampled during each semi-annual sampling event. One of the goals of changing the operation
of the ground -water remediation system to pulsed pumping was to permit the ground water in several of
the monitoring wells to recover from the lowered water table induced by the pumping prior to activating
the ground -water remediation system each November.
The semi-annual ground -water monitoring program consisted of sampling the following wells:
K65W6 "A"
K65W6"B"
K65W6"C"
K65W6"D"
K65W6 "E"
K65W7 "A'
K65W7 `B"
K65W7 "C"
K65W7"D"
K65W7"E"
K65W7"F"
K65W7"9"
K65W7 "H"
K65W7 "P'
RW-2
RW-4
RW-5
During the period of continuous pumping, seven of the monitoring wells (i.e., K65W6`B", K65W6"D",
K65W7"C", K65W7"D", K65W7"B", K65W7"F", and K65W7"G") did not have sufficient water to
purge and/or sample. One other monitoring well (i.e., K65W7"B") did not have sufficient water to purge
and/or sample for the latter half of the period of continuous pumping. Additionally during the last two
sampling events of this period Monitoring Well K65W7"A" did not have sufficient water to purge and/or
sample. Therefore, by the end of the period of. continuous pumping nine of the fourteen monitoring wells
were not dependable for acquiring sufficient water to purge and/or sample.
Monitoring Well K65W6 "C" was covered with fill material due to construction activities at the site, and
as a result was inaccessible for future reporting periods. Therefore, this well could not be purged or
sampled during the entire period of pulsed pumping.
During the period of pulsed pumping four of the monitoring wells (i.e., K65W6"D", K65W7`B",
K65W7"C", and K65W7"E") did not have sufficient water to purge and/or sample. Of the five
monitoring wells that were sampled at each sampling event during the period of continuous pumping, one
was covered due to construction activities (K65W6 "C") and the other four were continuously sampled
3-2

LAW Project No. 30150-6-1318
during the period of pulsed pumping (i.e., K65W6"A", K65W6"E", K65W7"H", and K65W7"P'). The
switch to pulsed pumping enabled intermittent sampling of four of the remaining five monitoring wells
and continuous sampling of one monitoring well (K65W7"D"). Additionally, during the period of the
pulsed pumping, rainfall in North Carolina has been significantly lower than the average rainfall. Thus
groundwater elevations have been exhibiting an overall decline, thereby potentially reducing the number
of monitoring wells with sufficient ground water available for sampling purposes.
Upon collection of the ground -water samples, they were placed in laboratory provided containers and
delivered to a North Carolina certified laboratory (i.e., Pace Analytical Services, Inc. in Huntersville,
North Carolina and Prism Laboratories, Inc. in Charlotte, North Carolina).
3.2 Laboratory Analytical Results
As required by the corrective action plan, the samples were analyzed for nitrate -nitrogen and nitrite -
nitrogen in accordance with EPA Methods 353.2-354.1 and 353.2, respectively. The analytical results
are summarized in Table 2 and the laboratory report from the March 29, 2002 event has been included as
Appendix A.
Of all the analytical data for nitrite from the monitoring wells at this site, only one sampling event
exhibited a nitrite concentration exceeding the North Carolina Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) of 1
milligram per liter (mg/L) as presented in Title 15A of the North Carolina Administrative Code, Section
2L, Subchapter .0202 (15A NCAC 2L.0202). This sampling event was conducted on February 10, 1993
with the ground -water sample collected from K65W7 "P'. The nitrite concentration was 9 mg/L. Both
before and since then the other sixteen nitrite concentrations for this monitoring well are below the MCL
and in most instances below the Minimum Detection Level (MDL). Hence, the single exceedance of the
nitrite MCL is an anomalous event. Therefore, based on these results nitrite is not a concern at this site.
There are two sampling events with a complete nitrate data set for the period prior to the commencement
F of continuous pumping (i.e., 1/22/92 and 2/10/93). However, an inspection of the latter, data indicates
that three of the nitrate concentrations (i.e., K65W6"A", K65W7"H", and K65W7"P') do not fit the
overall nitrate trend for the respective monitoring well. Therefore, the nitrate data for the former
sampling event was selected as being representative of the period prior to the commencement of the
3-3

LAW Project No. 30150-6-1318
sampling event was selected as being representative of the period prior to the commencement of the
continuous pumping. A nitrate isopleth map for this sampling event is presented on Figure 6 (January
22, 1992).
Nitrate concentrations for the sampling events at the end of each of the pumping periods (i.e., continuous
— 3/30/99; and pulsed — 3/29/02) are presented on Figures 7 and 8. Fluctuations in nitrate concentrations
are typical and may be related to ground -water recharge and/or seasonal variations. Trend plots for
nitrate concentrations in each monitoring well are included in Appendix B.

3.3 Remediation System Operation
The ground -water, remediation system at the Southern States facility commenced operations in January
1995. However, because of several operational problems the system was down for most of the first half
of both 1995 and 1996. Only after August 1996 was the ground -water remediation system able to
maintain a continuous withdrawal of ground water. The continuous ground -water withdrawal continued
through to the end of March 1999 for a total period of approximately 32 months.
From March 1999 to the end of March 2002 the ground -water remediation system has been operated on a
pulsed pumping schedule. During the period of pulsed pumping the ground -water remediation system
was pumped for a total of 14 months (there were approximately two months of downtime during startup
in November 2000, though the system was pumped for an extra month).
During the periods of pumping, Recovery Well RW-2 typically pumps from 50 to 60 gallons per minute
(gpm). Recovery Well RW-4 typically pumps from 4 to 8 gpm and Recovery Well RW-5 approximately
1 gpm. Therefore, about 90 percent of the recovered ground water is extracted from Recovery Well RW-
2. Recovery. Well RW-4 contributes approximately 9 percent of the flow. Combining the pump rates of
the three recovery wells, the total ground -water withdrawal rate ranged from 55 to 70 gpm during the
periods of operation.
For the period of the continuous pumping the ground -water remediation system recovered 88 million
gallons of ground water. During the subsequent period of pulsed pumping approximately 29 million
gallons of ground water were recovered. Based on an average flow rate per month, the ground -water
remediation system recovered 2.76 million gallons per month for the period of continuous pumping and
2.07 million gallons per month for the period of pulsed pumping.

4. DATA INTERPRETATION
The data collected during the operation monitoring visits conducted at the site over the past seven years
were presented in Section 3. The assessment of the ground -water remediation system is done in two
parts. In the first part the recovery operational data are reviewed in Section 4.1 in order to assess the
operation of the ground -water remediation system at the Southern States facility. In the second part,
Section 4.2 reviews the trend of the nitrate concentrations for the monitoring wells located at the site.
4.1 Review
The goal of the ground -water remediation system is to remove nitrates from the subsurface media
underlying the site. Hence, the primary purpose of this report is to assess whether the ground -water
remediation system has been meeting this goal. A secondary purpose of this report is to assess the
effectiveness of a continuously pumped ground -water remediation system versus a pulsed pumped
system. There are a number of approaches available for reviewing the data in order to evaluate the
success of meeting this goal and also, to compare the operation of a continuously pumped system versus
pa pulsed pumping system.
Using the nitrate concentrations for the recovered ground water from each of the recovery wells. and flow
rate data, the estimated total mass of nitrate recovered through the ground -water remediation system is
17,260 kilograms. Of this total mass, 13,300 kilograms were recovered during the period of continuous
pumping. Another 3,960 kilograms of nitrate were recovered during the period of pulsed pumping. In
order to make a fair comparison between the two different pumping periods the nitrate mass per gallon
pumped from the underlying aquifer needs to be determined from the available data. During the period
of continuous pumping the average nitrate extraction rate was 150.8 kilograms per million gallons and
during the period of pulsed pumping the average nitrate extraction rate was 135.0 kilograms per million
gallons. The rate of nitrate extraction during the latter pumping period was reduced by 10 percent from
the nitrate extraction rate for the first pumping period.
However, a lower nitrate extraction rate during the latter pumping period does not necessarily mean that
pulsed pumping is less effective than continuous pumping, because typically the nitrate extraction rates
decline asymptotically with increased time of .continuous pumping. Therefore, a comparison of the
nitrate extraction rates from the ground -water remediation system for the continuous and pulsed pumping
4-1

LAW Project No. 30150-6-1318
periods was indeterminate for assessing the optimum pumping approach. In a review of pulsed pumping,
the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) was also unable to assess whether it was
any better or worse than continuous pumping for several sites (Ref.: Evaluation of Ground -Water
Extraction Remedies, Volume I — Summary Report, EPA/540/2-89/054, September 1989).
4.2 Trend Analysis
The second part of the assessment of the ground -water remediation system is to summarize the trends of
the nitrate concentrations in the monitoring wells. As outlined in Section 3.1 there were fourteen
monitoring wells actively monitored as part of the ground water monitoring program at the site.
However, Monitoring Well K65W6"C" was lost due to construction activities in 1998. A review of the
nitrate concentrations, for, January 22, 1992 (prior to commencement of pumping), March 30, 1999 (end
of the continuous pumping period), and March 29, 2002 (end of the pulsed pumping period) was made in
order to determine overall trends.
At the end of the continuous pumping period five monitoring wells exhibited a decrease in nitrate
concentrations (i.e., K65W6"A", K65W6"C", K65W7"D", K65W7"H", and K65W7"P') and two
monitoring wells exhibited an increase in nitrate concentrations (Le., K65W6`B" and K65W6"E")
compared to January 22, 1992 concentrations. At the end of the pulsed .pumping period five monitoring
wells exhibited a decrease in nitrate concentrations (i.e., K65W6"A", K65W7"D", - K65W7"F",
K65W7"H", and K65W7"I") and four monitoring wells exhibited an increase in nitrate concentrations
(i.e., K65W6`B", K65W6"E", K65W7"A", and K65W7"G") compared to January 22, 1992
concentrations. It should be noted that the nitrate concentration in Monitoring Well K65W7"G" is
below the MCL of 10 mg/L for nitrate, except for the most recent concentration of 31 mg/L, which is an
anomalous value compared to the data history for this well.
Nitrate concentration plots for the monitoring wells are presented in Appendix B.

5. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
5.1 Conclusions
The following conclusions can be summarized from the previous sections with regard to the operation of
the ground -water remediation system for the Southern States facility in Statesville, North Carolina:
♦ Changing the ground -water remediation system from a continuously pumped system to a pulsed
pumped system did enable more monitoring wells to be sampled than previously sampled.
♦ A total of 17,260 kilograms of nitrate have been recovered from the ground water underlying the
site.
♦ A comparison of the nitrate extraction rates from the ground -water remediation system for the
continuously and pulsed pumping periods was indeterminate for assessing the optimum pumping
approach.
♦ Both the continuously pumped ground -water remediation system and the pulsed pumping were
capable of removing nitrate from the ground water at relatively similar rates.
♦ Based on the nitrite concentrations, nitrite is not a constituent of concern for this site.
♦ There is a general trend toward decreasing nitrate concentrations for the monitoring wells across
the site.
5.2 Recommendations
Based on NCDENR's revised site ranking to 30/1) in a letter dated February 17, 1999, LAW recommends
that consideration be given to performing a risk assessment for this site. In the event that agreement
cannot be reached in performing a risk assessment, LAW recommends that the pulsed pumping of the
system be continued "for another three years. LAW also recommends that the ground -water monitoring
network be sampled on an annual basis during the month of October, prior to the commencement of the
pumping during the winter months. The rationale for recommending annual ground -water sampling is
based on a combination of the extensive monitoring well data set already available for this site, the lower
ranking of the site, and the inability of acquiring a meaningful and complete data set at the end of each
pumping period (i.e., March) because of the reduced ground -water elevations due to pumping.

Dear Mr. Gustis:
Pace Analytical Services, Inc.
9800 Kincey Avenue, Suite 100
Huntersville, NC 28078
I am writing regarding the questions and/or concerns that you had with the nitrate data for
samples K65W6"A" (922178959) and K65W7"G" (922178991).
Phone: [phone]
Fax.• 704.875.9091
I, along with the inorganic laboratory supervisor, reviewed the data from these two samples. For
sample K65W7"G" (922178991), this sample was originally analyzed full strength; however, the
results from this analytical run exceeded, the calibration range of our instrument. The sample was
reanalyzed at a ten -fold dilution. The results from this analytical run were 31.4 mg/L, which is
the result that was reported to you. The results from this analysis confirmed the results of the
original run.
With regards to sample K65W6"A" (922178959), the sample was originally analyzed full
strength with the results exceeding the calibration range of the instrument. The sample was
reanalyzed using a five -fold dilution. However, due to an error with the instrument software,
nitrate was misidentified and was reported as < 0.50 mg/L. The nitrate data from the five -fold
run still exceeded the calibration range of the instrument. Therefore, a revised report is being
reissued to you with estimated values for this sample. This sample could not be reanalyzed after
discovery of the error because the hold time for the analysis had expired.
We have corrected the error with our software, and this type of error should not reoccur.
If you need additional information regarding the data for these samples, please contact me at
704-875-9092 Ext. 229.
Sincerely yours,
Mavis Jones
