Dear Mr. Lee:
In accordance with an email request received from Jeff Smith on August 17, 2007 and subsequent
communication, we are forwarding herewith the corrected Attachment C of Permit No. WQ0000484,
issued August 10, 2007, for the subject facility.
The following corrections have been made to Attachment C:
The minimum allowable pH in the ground water, as indicated by the periodic sampling of the 29
monitoring wells, has been lowered from 6.5 standard units to 4.2 standard units. This exception to
the 15A NCAC 02L .0202(g)(114) groundwater quality standard is being granted in accordance with
15A NCAC 02L .0202(b)(3) because of the low natural pH of groundwater in this area, as evidenced
by historical monitoring data from upgradient wells.
Please replace Attachment C with the corrected Attachment C into Permit No. WQ0000484, issued
August 10, 2007.
If you have any questions regarding this request, please do not hesitate to contact David Goodrich at (919)
715-6162. Thank you for your cooperation.
Sincerely,
for C een H. Sullins

1. 3 X year monitoring shall be conducted in April, August & December; Annual monitoring shal I be conducted every December.
2. The measurement of water levels shall be made prior to purging the wells. The depth to water in each well shall be measured from the surveyed
top of the casing. The measurement of pH shall be made after purging and prior to sampling for the remaining parameters.
3.The. measuring points (top of well casing) of all monitoring wells shall be surveyed to provide the relative elevation of the measuring point for each monitoring
well. The measuring points (top of casing) of all monitoring wells shall be surveyed relative to a common datum_
4. If TOC concentrations greater than 10 mg/1 are detected in any downgradient monitoring well, additional sampling and analysis must be conducted to identify the individual
constituents comprising this TOC concentration. If the TOC concentration as measured in the background monitor well exceeds 10 mg/l, this concentration will be taken to
represent the naturally occurring TOC concentration. Any exceedances of this naturally occurring TOC concentration in the downgradient wells shall be subject to the
additional sampling and analysis as described above.
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) - In December only, analyze by one of the following methods:
a. Standard Method 6230D, PQL at 0.5 gg/L or less
b. Standard Method 6210D, PQL at 0.5 µg/L or less
C. EPA Method 8021, Low Concentration, PQL at 0.5 µg/L or less
d. EPA Method 9260, Low Concentration, PQL at 0.5 µg/L or less
e. Another method with prior approval by the Division
Any method used must meet the following qualifications:
a. A laboratory must be DWQ certified to run any method used.
b. The method used must, at a minimum, include all the constituents listed in 'fable VUI of Standard Method 6230D.
C. The method used must provide a PQL of 0.5 ug/L or less that must be supported by laboratory proficiency studies as required by the DWQ Laboratory
Certification Unit. Any constituents detected above the MDL but below the PQL of 0.5 ug/L must be qualified (estimated) and reported.
6. If any volatile organic compounds (VOC) are detected as a result of monitoring as provided in Attachment C, then the Fayetteville Regional Office Aquifer Protection
Supervisor, telephone number (910) 433-3300, must be contacted immediately for further instructions regarding any additional follow-up analyses required.
7. Monitoring wells shall be reported consistent with the nomenclature and location information provided in Figure 2 and this attachment.
