Please note the following:
• Per permit condition Part VII.5, prior to closing this permit, the Permittee must meet
groundwater quality standards or pre -injection levels, whichever concentration is higher,
for all of the injection constituents; otherwise, continued monitoring as approved in the
monitoring plan will be required until such levels can be established;
• Per permit conditions Part VII.3 &4, and IX.2(G), within 30 days after each injection event,
please provide the well construction (if not previously submitted) and injection information

MEMORANDUM
TO: Debra Watts
FROM: Michael Rogers
RE: Renewal Permit to Inject Sodium Permanganate and Potassium Permanganate
Smitty's Cleaners — DSCA Site No. 26-0003
Permit WI0600068
I recommend that Permit Number WI0600068 be re -issued to the petitioner for DSCA Site 26-0003 to inject Sodium
Permanganate and Potassium Permanganate to remediate soils and groundwater contaminated with chlorinated ethenes,
which are primarily PCE and PCE breakdown products. This permit was originally issued on February 28, 2011, and
expired on January 31, 2014. The Permittee indicates there have been no injections since the permit was issued and
therefore, has requested the permit be renewed without modification.
Since the permit for this injection activity has previously been approved and information contained therein is essentially
the same, I am attaching this modified memo. Please refer to the previous permit issuance memorandum for more
information on this site.
REGIONAL OFFICE COMMENTS:
Jim Barber conducted a site inspection and confirmed there have been no changes since the last inspection and it does not
appear there have been any injection activities.
Jim Barber with the Fayetteville Regional Office recommends permit issuance.
