IV. INJECTION WELL PERMIT APPLICATIONS (Complete these two sections for all systems that use injection
wells, including closed -loop groundwater remediation effluent injection wells, in situ remediation injection wells, and heat
pump injection wells.)
Description Of Well(S) And Facilities — New, Renewal And Modification
I. Type of injection system:
❑ Heating/cooling water return flow (5A7)
❑ Closed -loop heat pump system (5QM/5QW)
Z In situ remediation (5I)
❑ Closed -loop groundwater remediation effluent injection (5LP'Non-Discharge")
❑ Other (Specify: )
2. Does system use same well for water source and injection? ❑ Yes No
3. Are there any potential pollution sources that may affect injection? N Yes ® No
What is/are the pollution source(s)? The primary culprit for groundwater impacts is the unlined MSW landfill
that was operational from 1985 to the end 1997. The secondary culprit is the old construction/demolition
landfill that is south of the unlined MSW landfill (between the MSW and MW-5 & MW-5A) and is identified
as a disposal area on the site drawings in the injection well application (Fig. 1). What is the distance of the
injection well(s) from the pollution source(s)? 450' to 500' ft.
4. What is the minimum distance of proposed injection wells from the property boundary? 300' + ft.
5. Quality of drainage at site: ❑ Good ❑ Adequate ® Poor
6. Flooding potential of site: ❑ Low ❑ Moderate ® High
7. For groundwater remediation systems, is the proposed and/or existing groundwater monitoring program
(number of wells, frequency of monitoring, monitoring parameters, etc.) adequate? ® Yes ❑ No. Attach
map of existing monitoring well network if applicable. If No, explain and recommend any changes to the
groundwater monitoring program: The current groundwater monitoring system is for the closed, unlined
Robeson County landfill. Monitoring wells exist between the new, lined landfill currently operating and the
closed, unlined MSW landfill. MW-5 & 5A are located at the compliance boundary of 500' from the waste
wells located at the site have been approved by the Division of Waste Management - Solid Waste Section for
monitoring of said landfill to meet the intent of groundwater monitoring required by 40 CFR 257 and 258
(Subtitle D Landfill rules as required by RCRA).
8. Does the map presented represent the actual site (property lines, wells, surface drainage)? ® Yes or ❑ No. If
no or no map, please attach a sketch of the site. Show property boundaries, buildings, wells, potential pollution
sources, roads, approximate scale, and north arrow.
Injection Well Permit Renewal And Modification Only:
1. For heat pump systems, are there any abnormalities in heat pump or injection well operation (e.g. turbid water,
failure to assimilate injected fluid, poor heating/cooling)?

AQUIFER/PROTE% ION SECTION REGIONAi, STAFF REPORT
Date: I /2 62 hi
ADDITIONAL REGIONAL STAFF REVIEW ITEMS
Enclosed with this staff report is a copy of the 100 year floodplain map and topographic map for the area
depicting the area in and around MW-5 & 5A and the injection site. The proposed area of remediation by
injection well technology is within the 100 year floodplain (blue shading) of Big Marsh Swamp. Ground
surface elevation at the vicinity of MW-5 & 5A and the injection area is approximately 126' to 127 +/- msl and
the 100 year floodplain elevation mapped for the area is approximately 128' to 129' +/- msl.
There are no groundwater users in the area of the remediation site. Down gradient of injection site is Big Marsh
Swamp. Any private groundwater supply wells near the injection site would be across Big Marsh Swamp and
the nearest water supply well north of Big Marsh Swamp would be at least 3000' or more away.
No major or identified industrial/commercial sources of pollution at or near the landfill site (within 2000' of the
landfill property boundary). Possible minor sources of groundwater impacts in the area (other than the disposal
units) would be maintenance of equipment at the yard waste area located east of the C&D landfill (approx. 700'
from MW-5 & 5A).
A copy of the final UIC permit should be provided to the Solid Waste Section in the Division of Waste
Management. The contact person for this site is Ms. Elizabeth Werner (919) 508-8496. The mailing address is

Right -I have a copy of this figure also. However, it indicates on the Attachment H page that' a map of the injection and
monitoring point locations is included'. Also, Figure 5 shows a series of injection points, but page 5 of the application
shows 3 proposed injection Wells are to be constructed. I'll ask for clarification in an Add Info letter.

Medical Evaluation and Risk Assessment Uni
Occupational and Environmental Epidemiology Branch
North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services
SUBJECT: Use of Non -Biological Product by Regenesis to Enhance Biodegradation
of Contaminated Groundwater
Carmen Hooker Odom, Secretary
I am writing in response to a request for a health risk evaluation regarding the use
of a non -biological product by Regenesis to enhance biodegradation of contaminated
groundwater. Based upon my review of the information submitted, I offer the following
health risk evaluation:
1. Ingestion may result in burns to the lips, tongue, and mouth. Exposure to
the eyes can cause distortion of cellar membranes, loss of corneal,
conjunctival and lens epithelium and loss of endothelium of the cornea
and blood vessels. Inhalation may produce upper airway edema,
respiratory failure, wheezing, pulmonary edema, and pneumonitis. Skin
exposure may cause pain, redness, irritation and severe burns
(Micromedex TOMEs Plus System CD-ROM Database, Volume 71,
2007).
2. If the products are released into the environment in a way that could result
°' in a suspension of fine solid or liquid particles (e.g., grinding, blending,
vigorous shaking or mixing), then proper personal protective equipment
should be used. The application process should be reviewed by an
c.' industrial hygienist to ensure that the most appropriate personal protective
equipment is used.
O
3. Persons working with this product should at least wear goggles or a face
shield, gloves, and protective clothing. Face and body protection should
Location: 5505 Six Forks Road, 2nd Floor, Room D1 • Raleigh, N.C. 27609
An Equal Opportunity Employer
be used for anticipated splashes or sprays. Again, consult with an
industrial hygienist to ensure proper protection.
4. Eating, drinking, smoking, handling contact lenses, and applying
cosmetics should never be permitted in the application area during or
immediately following application. Safety controls should be in place to
ensure that the check valve and the pressure delivery systems are working
properly.
5. The Material Safety Data Sheets should be followed to prevent adverse
reactions and injuries.
6. Access to the area of application should be limited to the workers applying
the product. In order to minimize exposure to unprotected individuals,
measures should be taken to prevent access to the area of application.
7. Violent reactions or ignition could occur under the appropriate conditions
with acids, alcohols, p-bis (1, 3-dibromoethyl) benzene, cyclopentadiene,
germanium, hyponitrous acid, maleic anhydride, nitroalkanes, 2-
nitrophenol, potassium peroxodisulfate, sugars, 2, 2, 3, 3-
tetrafluoropropanol, and thorium dicarbide. Measures should be taken to
prevent such reactions (Micromedex TOMEs Plus System CD-ROM
Database, Volume 71, 2007).
8. Measures should be taken to prevent contamination of existing or future
wells and surface waters that may be located near the application area.
Please do not hesitate to call me if you have any questions at (919) 707-5912.
