and standards specified in 15A NCAC 02C .0200, shall be subject to corrective action as
provided under rule 15A NCAC 02C .0206.
2. The following corrective actions shall apply to elevated concentrations of inj ectants or reaction
byproducts resulting from the permitted injection activity:
(A) Continued monitoring until concentrations return to pre -injection values or meet the
standards specified in 15A NCAC 02L .0202, whichever are greater. The frequency,
duration, and location of monitoring shall be appropriate for site specific conditions and
potential receptors.
(B) Groundwater quality parameters that do not attenuate as described in 2(A) above may
warrant a corrective action plan as provided under rule 15A NCAC 02C .0206, depending

PART VIII - PERMIT RENEWAL [15A NCAC 02C .0211(b)]
In order to continue uninterrupted legal use of the injection facility for the stated purpose, the
Permittee should submit an application to renew the permit 120 days prior to its expiration date.
PART IX - CHANGE OF WELL STATUS [15A NCAC 02C .0240]
1. The Permittee shall provide written notification within 15 days of any change of status of an
injection well. Such a change would include the discontinued use of a well for injection. If a
well is taken completely out of service temporarily, the Permittee must install a sanitary seal.
If a well is not to be used for any purpose that well must be permanently abandoned according
to 15A NCAC 2C .0240, Well Construction Standards.
2. When operations have ceased at the facility and a well will no longer be used for any purpose,
the P -iinittee shall abandon that injection well in accordance with the procedures specified in
15A NCAC 2C .0240, including but not limited to the following:
(A) All casing and screen materials may be removed prior to initiation of abandonment
procedures if such removal will not cause or contribute to contamination of the
groundwaters.
(B) The entire depth of each well shall be sounded before it is sealed to insure freedom
from obstructions that may interfere with sealing operations.
(C) The well shall be thoroughly disinfected, prior to sealing, if WQROS staff determines
that failure to do so could lead to the contamination of an underground source of
drinking water.
(D) Drilled wells shall be completely filled with cement grout or bentonite grout, which
shall be introduced into the well through a pipe which extends to the bottom of the well
and is raised as the well is filled.
(E) In the case of gravel -packed wells in which the casing and screens have not been
removed, neat -cement, or bentonite grout shall be injected into the well completely
filling it from the bottom of the casing to the top.
(F) In those cases when, as a result of the injection operations, a subsurface cavity has been
created, each well shall be abandoned in such a manner that will prevent the movement
of fluids into or between underground sources of drinking water and in accordance with
the terms and conditions of the permit.
(G) The Permittee shall submit a Well Abandonment Record (Form GW-30) as specified
in 15A NCAC 2C .0225(k)(1)(A) within 30 days of completion of abandonment.
