Re: Water -Supply Well Construction Permit Application, Cherry Glade Well, Pasquotank
County, North Carolina
Dear Mr. May,
Please find enclosed an application for a permit to construct one water -supply well (Cherry
Glade) for the Pasquotank County Reverse Osmosis (RO) Water Treatment Plant (WTP),
Pasquotank County, North Carolina. Groundwater Management Associates, Inc. (GMA) is
working as a subconsultant to Pasquotank County's engineer (Green Engineering) to provide
professional consulting services associated with the drilling, construction, and testing of one
water -supply well at 876 Cherry Glade Road, Elizabeth City, Pasquotank County, North Carolina.
GMA's contract with Green Engineering authorizes GMA to prepare and submit this well permit
application on behalf of Pasquotank County. If successful, the water -supply well will become a
new source of raw water to support the wellfield expansion for the Pasquotank County RO WTP.
The new Cherry Glade water -supply well will be constructed in the Castle Hayne Aquifer.
The enclosed permit application includes: the GW-22W form, the Pasquotank County - RO
(2023) Local Water Supply Plan, maps detailing the location, parcel information, and proposed
well site, a diagram of the proposed well construction details, and a copy of the Well Site
Investigation letter issued by Rebecca Sadosky with the NCDEQ Public Water Supply Section.
The water -supply well will be constructed of stainless -steel casing and stainless -steel screens,
and it will be built according to the North Carolina Well Construction Standards (NCAC 02C).
Casings will be properly grouted to prevent interconnection of the aquifers. A NC Certified Well
Contractor will be contracted to perform the drilling operations after bidding is completed.

Mr. Kegley

may actually be different than indicated due to seasonal populations and the accuracy of data submitted. Water systems that have calculated long-term per capita
water demand based on a methodology that produces different results may submit their information in the notes field.
Your long-term water demand is 43 gallons per capita per day. What demand management practices do you plan to implement to reduce the per capita water
demand (i.e. conduct regular water audits, implement a plumbing retrofit program, employ practices such as rainwater harvesting or reclaimed water)? If these
practices are covered elsewhere in your plan, indicate where the practices are discussed here.
Are there other demand management practices you will implement to reduce your future supply needs?
What supplies other than the ones listed in future supplies are being considered to meet your future supply needs?
How does the water system intend to implement the demand management and supply planning components above?
Additional Information
Has this system participated in regional water supply or water use planning? No
What major water supply reports or studies were used for planning?
Please describe any other needs or issues regarding your water supply sources, any water system deficiencies or needed improvements (storage, treatment,
etc.) or your ability to meet present and future water needs. Include both quantity and quality considerations, as well as financial, technical, managerial,
permitting, and compliance issues:

On March 28, 2024, Mr. Clif Whitfield with the NC Department of Environmental Quality Public
Water Supply (PWS) Section, met with Mr. Chuck Lewis and Mr. Rodney Tart, P.E. with Green
Engineering, PLLC to conduct a preliminary investigation for two well sites. The proposed well
sites are listed below and are shown in the attached drawings provided by Green Engineering.
The proposed wells have been assigned Water System Facility (WSF) Identification Numbers and
Sampling Point Codes as indicated below.

It should be noted that the Wesley 211 Well is not proposed and has already been drilled.
This well was drilled in 2010 based on a preliminary well site approval letter dated March
4, 2010, that was issued for Wesley No. 2 Well. During construction of the Wesley No. 2
Well, the borehole collapsed, and the well driller moved over 20 feet and drilled a
replacement well (Wesley 2R Well). The existing Wesley 2R Well appears to meet all
criteria for wellsite approval.
The proposed Cherry Glade Well must be drilled within 24 months of the date of this
letter. If not drilled within this 24-month period, this Preliminary Well Site Approval
letter is void and permission to drill the well is no longer valid. To regain permission to
drill this well, PWS Section staff must revisit the proposed site to conduct an investigation
and issue a new preliminary well site approval letter before the well may be drilled.
In addition, this "Preliminary Well Site Approval" is to acknowledge that according to the
information and documentation provided, we understand that the proposed wells are located on
lots so that the area within 100 feet of the wells is owned or controlled by the person supplying
the water and that the supplier of water will protect the well lots from potential sources of
pollution and construct landscape features for drainage and diversion of pollution as required in
15A NCAC 18C .0203(a)(1). Furthermore, an email dated April 1, 2024, indicates Green
Engineering, PLLC has determined that the proposed well locations satisfy the minimum
horizontal separation distances specified in 15A NCAC 18C .0203(a)(2) and summarized in the
following table:
Distance
Potential Source of Pollution
in feet
100
• From any sanitary sewage disposal system, sewer, or sewer pipe (unless sewer is
constructed of water main materials and joints, in which the sewer pipe shall be
at least 50 feet from the well.
• From buildings, mobile homes, permanent structures, animal houses or lots,
cultivated areas to which chemicals are applied.
• From surface water.
• From a chemical or petroleum fuel underground storage tank with secondary
containment.
• From any other potential source of pollution not listed in this table.
200
• From a subsurface sanitary sewage treatment and disposal system designed for
3,000 or more gallons of wastewater a day, unless your well water source is a
confined aquifer.
300
• From any cemetery or burial ground.
Soo
• From a septage disposal site.
• From a chemical or petroleum fuel underground storage tank without secondary
containment
• From the boundary of a ground water contamination area.
• From a sanitary landfill or non -permitted non -hazardous solid waste disposal
site.
1,000
• From a hazardous waste disposal site or in any location which conflicts with the
North Carolina Hazardous Waste Management Rules cited in NCAC 13A.

We also understand that the owner will ensure that the lots are graded or sloped so that surface
water is diverted away from the wellheads and that the wells shall not have greater than a 1
percent annual chance of flooding in accordance with 15A NCAC 18C .0203(a)(4).
PWS Section "Authorization to Construct" and "Final Approval'
Subsequent to well drilling and evaluating water quality and quantity (i.e., collecting and
analyzing samples and performing a 24-hour well drawdown test) the owner must submit an
"Application for Approval of Engineering Plans and Specifications For Water Supply Systems" to
document proposed well completion (i.e., selected pump, wellhead and well house details) and
associated transmission lines, treatment and/or storage facilities and other critical information
about the public water system. In accordance with 15A NCAC 18C .0305 (a) no construction shall
be undertaken until the PWS Section issues an "Authorization to Construct" letter. In addition, in
accordance with 15A NCAC 18C .0309(a) the new wells and all associated treatment, storage or
transmission/distributions lines shall not be placed into service until the PWS Section has issued
a "Final Approval." These steps are described in the Engineering Planning and Development
Guidance Document available at
https• [/files nc gov/ncdeq/Water%20Resources/files/pws/planreview/EPD Guidance July201
9.pdf
Be aware that plans, specifications and reports for the new wells must be certified by a
Professional Engineer. Therefore, it is recommended that a Professional Engineer or Licensed
Geologist (or their designated representative) experienced in the construction of water supply
wells conduct on -site monitoring of well construction. At a minimum, certain critical phases of
well construction such as installation and grouting of casing should be monitored. In many
situations it may be necessary to go beyond the minimum requirements in order to protect the
public health and ground water resources.
Other Agency Approvals Required
This PWS Section "Preliminary Well Site Approval" letter does not address other agency
applicable rules and requirements pertaining to well construction and registration.
Local county well construction rules and ordinances may include additional requirements.
Well construction must meet the standards specified in the Well Construction Standards (15A
NCAC 2C). Be aware that these rules require a permit to be obtained from the Water Quality
Regional Operations Section of the Division of Water Resources before the well is constructed if
it is anticipated that the new well will be part of a water system with a design capacity of
100,000 gallons per day or greater. In addition, these rules require that wells be constructed by
a properly certified well driller. For more information, call 919-707-3668 or go to:
