days of well abandonment.
2. Within sixty (60) days of permit issuance, the permittee shall submit two original copies
of a scaled topographic map (scale no greater than 1": 100) signed and sealed by a
professional engineer or a state licensed land surveyor that indicates all of the following
information:
a. the location and identity of each monitoring well,
b. the location of the waste disposal system,
c. the location of all property boundaries,
(continued on next page)
d. the Iatitude and longitude of the established horizontal control monument,
e. the relative elevation of the top of the well casing (which shall be known as the
"measuring point"), and
f. the depth of water below the measuring point at the time the measuring point is
established.
The survey shall be conducted using approved practices outlined in North Carolina
General Statutes Chapter 89C and the North Carolina Administrative Code Title 21,
Chapter 56. The surveyor shall establish a horizontal control monument on the property
of the waste disposal system and determine the latitude and longitude of this horizontal
control monument to a horizontal positional accuracy of +/- 10 feet. All other features
listed in a. through e. above shall be surveyed relative to this horizontal control
monument. The positional accuracy of features listed in a. through e. above shall have a
ratio of precision not to exceed an error of closure of 1 foot per 10,000 feet of perimeter
of the survey. Any features located by the radial method will be located from a minimum
of two points. Horizontal control monument shall be installed in such a manner and
made of such materials that the monument will not be destroyed due to activities that may
take place on the property. The map shall also be surveyed using the North American
Datum of 1983 coordinate system and shall indicate the datum on the map. All bearings
or azimuths shall be based on either the true or NAD 83 grid meridian. If a Global
Positioning System (GPS) is used to determine the latitude and longitude of the
horizontal control monument, a GPS receiver that has the capability to perform
differential GPS shall be used and all data collected by the GPS receiver will be
differentially corrected.
The maps and any supporting documentation shall be sent to the Permits and Compliance
Unit, Groundwater Section, 1636 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC, 27699-1636.
3. Monitor wells MW-1, MW-2, MW-4, MW-5, MW-16, and MW-17 (at the Pine Island

Attachment B shall be sampled initially after construction and thereafter every March,
July, and November for the following parameters:
6

Water Level pH
Chloride Total Dissolved Solids (TDS)
Fecal Coliforms Total Organic Carbon (TOC)
Nitrate (NO3) Total Ammonia
Volatile Organic Compounds - In November only using one of the following:
(A) Standard Method 6230D, PQL at 0.5 ug/L or less
(B) Standard Method 6210D, PQL at 0.5 ug/L or less
(C) EPA Method 8021, Low Concentration, PQL at 0.5 ug/L or less
(D) EPA Method 8260, Low Concentration, PQL at 0.5 ug/L or less
(E) Another method with prior approval by the Groundwater Section Chief
Any method used must meet the following qualifications:
(1) A laboratory must be DWQ certified to run any method used.
(2) The method used must, at a minimum, include all the constituents listed in
Table VIII of Standard Method 6230D.
(3) The method used must provided a PQL at 0.5 ug/L or less which 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 at 0.5 ug/L must be qualified (estimated) and reported.
If any volatile organic compounds are detected by the methods listed, then the
Washington Regional Office Groundwater Supervisor, telephone number [phone],
must be contacted immediately for further instructions regarding any additional follow-up
analyses required. The results of all initial and follow-up analyses must be submitted
simultaneously.
The measurement of water levels must be made prior to sampling for the remaining
parameters. The depth to water in each well shall be measured from the surveyed point
on the top of the casing.
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.
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/1, 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.
The results of the sampling and analysis must be. received on Form GW-59 (Groundwater
Quality Monitoring: Compliance; Report Form) by the Groundwater Section, Permits and
Compliance Unit, 1636 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC, 27699-1636.on or before the
last working day of the month following the sampling month.
4. Irrigation wells connected to and shared with the lines for reuse water will require a
complete disconnect feature (air gap), as opposed to a check valve, to protect the
irrigation wells.

5. The COMPLIANCE BOUNDARY and REVIEW BOUNDARY for the spray irrigation
areas, shall be established at the property boundary in accordance with 15A NCAC 2H
.02I9 (k)(1)(C)(I)(III). An exceedance of Groundwater Quality Standards at or beyond
the Compliance Boundary is subject to immediate remediation action in addition to the
penalty provisions applicable under General Statute 143-215.6A(a)(1).
6, The COMPLIANCE BOUNDARY for the high rate disposal system is specified by
regulations in 15A NCAC 2L, Groundwater Classifications and Standards. The
Compliance Boundary is for the disposal system constructed after December 31, 1983 is
established at either (1) 250 feet from the waste disposal area, or (2) 50 feet within the
property boundary, whichever is closest to the waste disposal area. An exceedance of
Groundwater Quality Standards at or beyond the Compliance Boundary is subject to
immediate remediation action in addition to the penalty provisions applicable under
General Statute 143-215.6A(a)(1).
In accordance with 15A NCAC 2L, a REVIEW BOUNDARY is established around the
disposal systems midway between the Compliance Boundary and the perimeter of the
waste disposal area. Any exceedance of standards at the Review Boundary shall require
remediation action on the part of the permtttee.
7. Any additional groundwater quality monitoring, as deemed necessary by the Division,
shall be provided.
V. INSPECTIONS
Adequate inspection, maintenance, and cleaning shall be provided by the Peznuttee to
insure proper operation of the subject facilities.
2. The Pernuttee or his designee shall inspect the wastewater treatment and disposal
facilities to prevent malfunctions and deterioration, operator errors and discharges which

a nuisance. The Permittee shall keep an inspection log or summary including at least the
date and time of inspection, observations made, and any maintenance, repairs, or
corrective actions taken by the Permittee. This log of inspections shall be maintained by
the Permittee for a period of three years from the date of the inspection and shall be made
available upon request to the Division or other permitting authority.
3. Any duly authorized officer, employee, or representative of the Division may, upon
presentation of credentials, enter and inspect any property, premises or place on or related
to the disposal site or facility at any reasonable time for the purpose of determining
compliance with this permit; may inspect or copy any records that must be maintained
under the terms and conditions of this permit, and may obtain samples of groundwater,
surface water, or leachate.
