Attached are two copies of an Underground Injection Control (UIC) Permit application with
attachments for the above -referenced project site. This site previously had a UIC Permit
(#WI0600011) issued for organic substrate injections to promote in -situ anaerobic
bioremediation of volatile organic compounds in Site groundwater. Permit #WI0600011 expired
in September 2008, and a new UIC permit is being requested to continue with the ongoing
bioremediation program.
Abbott is requesting the new UIC permit to inject additional organic substrates to promote
reductive dechlorination and other bioremediation processes. Specifically, Abbott proposes to
inject Anaerobic BioChem, a patented, NCDENR-approved substrate material. Additionally,
studies conducted by our consultant demonstrate low populations of indigenous dechlorinating
bacteria are present in Site groundwater. To improve this situation, injections of RTB-1
Dehalococcoides spp. bacteria culture (also approved by NCDENR) will be performed on a
limited pilot test basis during the initial Anaerobic BioChem injections, followed by full-scale
injections of RTB-1 bacteria culture within six months if the indigenous populations of DHC
bacteria do not flourish without bioaugmentation.
Please note that much of the Site information provided in the Attachments to the enclosed permit
application is unchanged from the application submitted for prior permit #WI0600011. Abbott's
objective is to maintain and enhance the bioremediation program that has been ongoing since
2002. Updated Site information and groundwater data, including a recent subsurface

investigation report and groundwater monitoring report, are included as attachments to this
permit application to demonstrate the effectiveness of the remediation programs.
Finally, the property ownership has changed since the prior UIC permit application was made by
Abbott in 2002. The current property owner is Marketta, LLC, who purchased the property from
Scotland Development Corporation. We have attached a copy of the Release and Right of Entry
Agreement between Abbott and Scotland Development Corporation for your review. This
agreement allows Abbott perpetual, full access to the Site property, regardless of future
ownership, for the purposes of conducting environmental investigations and remediation. This
Release and Right of Entry Agreement document meets the intent of (and replaces) the `Consent
of Property Owner' signature requirement in Section VII, Page 7 of the UIC permit application.
If you have any questions and/or need additional information, please contact me at (847) 938-
4219 or Curt Michols at [phone].
