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.
If any volatile organic compounds are detected by Method 6230D, then the Wilmington
Regional Office Groundwater Supervisor, telephone number 910/ 395-3900 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 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, P.O. Box 29578 Raleigh, N.C. 27626-0578 on or before the last

forty-eight (48) hours prior to the construction of any monitoring well so that an inspection
can be made of the monitoring well location. Such notification to the regional groundwater
supervisor shall be made during the normal office hours from 8:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. on
Monday through Friday, excluding state holidays.
7. Within sixty (60) days of completion of all monitoring wells, the permittee shall submit two
original copies of a scaled topographic map (scale no greater than V: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,
d . the latitude 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
8 �r
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
