Re: Semi -Annual Sprayfield Sampling Results
A.B. Carter, Inc., Permit #WQ0004270
Gastonia, North Carolina
H&H Job No. ABC.030
To Whom It May Concern:
On behalf of A.B. Carter, Inc. (A.B. Carter), enclosed are the results for the August 2024 sampling
and analysis conducted at the above -referenced facility. Per an email dated July 12, 2022 from the
Non -Discharge Branch Chief, Nathaniel Thornburg, monitoring and reporting for the facility has
been suspended with the exception of nitrate, pH, and water level for monitoring well MW-19 due
to the decommissioning of the spray field system. The nitrate concentration detected in the sample
from MW-19 was below the 15A NCAC 02L.0202 Groundwater Quality Standard (2L Standard).
Therefore, A.B. Carter is requesting a rescission of the permit.
If you have any questions regarding the enclosed results, please feel free to give me a call at (919)
723-2512 or Mike Jeffords of A.B. Carter at [phone].
Sincerely,
Hart & Hickman, PC
Gregory Kanellis, P.E.

Are any of the monitor wells in need of repair or maintenance (damaged casing, unlocked or missing cap, missing
NO
identification plate, area overgrown, etc.)? If the answer is "Yes ", contact the Regional Off ce for guidance.
4
Are any monitored constituents equal to or above the established standards?
YES
if the answer to question 4 is "NO", skip to section 8.
If the answer to question 4 is "YES" list the affected wells individually with constituent(s) and concentration(s)
exceeding standards in the space provided below:
MW-19: pH = 5.11
5
For the constituents identified in question 4 above, have standards been exceeded previously for the
YES
same constituent(s) in the same well(s) in the last two years?
if the answer to question 5 is "NO", skip to section 8.
If the answer to question 5 is "YES", list in the space provided below, each well with constituents) exceeding
standards, concentrations) reported, and sample collection date for each occurrence (for the last two years).
MW-19: pH= <6.5 (8/15/22, 2/6/23, 8/4/23, 2/5/24)
MW-19: Nitrate= >10 mg/L (8/15/22, 216/23, 814/23, 2/5/24)
6
Are the monitoring wells listed in section 5 located at or beyond the review boundary?
YES
If the answer is "YES", a groundwater quality problem may be occurring. CONTACT THE REGIONAL
OFFICE IMMEDIATELY FOR GUIDANCE. if the answer is "NO", monitoring wells may be improperly
located; contact the Regional Office.
pH has historically been low and this has been discussed with DEQ — determined to be background
conditions. DEQ has been contacted regarding the detected nitrate concentrations in MW-19. The permit
has been reclassified/declassified due to the decommissioning of the spray field system. Nitrate was below
the 2L Standard during the most recent sampling event and rescission of the permit has been requested.
7
Is the permittee implementing previously approved actions required by the Division involving this
NO
groundwater quality problem?
If the answer to question 7 is "YES", describe those actions in the space provided below.
If the answer to question 7 is "NO" contact the Regional Office within 90 days: an evaluation may be
required to determine the gact the waste d%osa_l�system is having at the review and compliance
boundaries surrounding this facility. Failure to do so may subiect the permittee to a Notice of Violation.

Waypoint Analytical, LLC (Charlotte) received sample(s) on 8/27/2024 for the analyses presented in the
following report.
The above referenced project has been analyzed per your instructions. The analyses were performed in
accordance with the applicable analytical method.
The analytical data has been validated using standard quality control measures performed as required by the
analytical method. Quality Assurance, method validations, instrumentation maintenance and calibration for all
parameters were performed in accordance with guidelines established by the USEPA (including 40 CFR 136
Method Update Rule May 2021) unless otherwise indicated.
Certain parameters (chlorine, pH, dissolved oxygen, sulfite...) are required to be analyzed within 15 minutes of
sampling. Usually, but not always, any field parameter analyzed at the laboratory is outside of this holding time.
Refer to sample analysis time for confirmation of holding time compliance.
The results are shown on the attached Report of Analysis(s). Results for solid matrices are reported on an as -
received basis unless otherwise indicated. This report shall not be reproduced except in full and relates only to
the samples included in this report.
Please do not hesitate to contact me or client services if you have any questions or need additional information.
Sincerely,
