Dear Ms. Southerland:
Subject: Permit No. WQ0006822
Jiffy Mart, Incorporated
Jiffy Mart - Hines Street
Groundwater Remediation
Wilson County
On March 25, 1993, the Division of Environmental Management issued Permit No. WQ0006822
to Jiffy Mart, Incorporated for the construction and operation of the subject groundwater remediation
facilities. On May 4, 1993, the Division received a "Petition for a Contested Case Hearing" and a letter of
explanation from Edgerton Environmental Services, Inc., which specified various conditions and
requirements of Permit No. WQ0006822, to which Jiffy Mart, Incorporated objects. The Division has
reviewed these objections and they are discussed below:
Objection 1: On page 1, the narrative description of the permit should specify a 500 gallon tank
with a 400 gallon aeration compartment and a 100 gallon equalization compartment.
Response 1: The permit has been modified accordingly.
Objection 2: On page 1, the narrative description of the permit should specify transfer pumps
rather than transfer tanks.
Response 2: The permit has been modified accordingly.
Objection 3: Request that condition IV.1 be modified to require groundwater monitoring semi-
annually rather than quarterly.

Response 3: The purpose of requiring quarterly sampling is to help establish that the remediation
system is operating, as proposed, to clean up the groundwater. Monitoring quarterly
will enable the Division to evaluate the system and to establish a general trend of
treatment efficiency. Until that trend is established, the Division will not modify the
monitoring frequency requirements.
Objection 4: Request that conditions IV.1 and IV.2 be modified to require that sample and analysis
results be submitted to the Division's Groundwater Section within 45 days after
sample collection rather than within 30 days, to allow adequate lab time and time for
the consultant to reduce and compile the data.
Response 4: Conditions IVA and IV.2 require the submittal of the required sample and analysis
results on form GW-59, which is a straightforward process; therefore, the Division
does not feel that the requirement for data submittal needs to be extended beyond the
originally specified 30 days. This requirement has not been revised.
Objection 5: Request that condition IV.6 be modified to require that the groundwater recovery,
treatment, and disposal system be inspected weekly for the first month and then
monthly thereafter.
Response 5: The remediation system is not closed loop and the gallery is located outside of the
plume. Any release of water that is not properly treated will result in the
contamination of groundwater; therefore, the Division feels that the requirement for
weekly inspections must remain.
This permit modification shall be final and effective from the date of issuance until February 28,
1998, shall void Permit No. WQ0006822, which was issued on March 25, 1993, and shall be subject to
the conditions and limitations as specified therein. Please pay particular attention to the monitoring
requirements in this permit. Failure to establish an adequate system for collecting and maintaining the
required operational information will result in future compliance problems.
If you need additional information concerning this
733-5083.

significant amounts of wastes which are abnormal in quantity or characteristic, such
as the dumping of the contents of a basin or tank; the known passage of a slug of
hazardous substance through the facility; or any other unusual circumstances.
2

b. Any process unit failure, due to known or unknown reasons, that render the facility
incapable of adequate wastewater treatment such as mechanical or electrical failures
of pumps, aerators, compressors, etc.
C. Any failure of a pumping station, sewer line, or treatment facility resulting in a by-
pass directly to receiving waters without treatment of all or any portion of the
influent to such station or facility.
d. Any time that self -monitoring information indicates that the facility is not in
compliance with its permit limitations.
Persons reporting such occurrences by telephone shall also file a written report in Ietter
form within 15 days following first knowledge of the occurrence. This report must outline
the actions taken or proposed to be taken to ensure that the problem does not recur.

Quality Standards beyond the Compliance Boundary is subject to penalty provisions
applicable under General Statute 143-215.6(1)a. The sale of property, by the Permittee,
which is within or contiguous to the disposal system site may alter location of the
Compliance Boundary.
For facilities permitted on or after December 30, 1983, the Compliance Boundary is

property boundary.
If the title to any property which may affect the location of the Compliance Boundary is

NCAC 2L, Groundwater Classifications and Standards. A REVIEW BOUNDARY is
established around disposal systems midway between the Compliance Boundary and the
perimeter of the waste disposal area. When the concentration of any substance equals or
exceeds the maximum allowable concentration of that substance at the REVIEW
BOUNDARY, as determined by monitoring, the permittee shall ie ther (i) demonstrate,
through predictive calculations or modeling, that natural site conditions, facility design and
operational controls will prevent a violation of standards at the Compliance Boundary; or,
(ii) submit a plan for the alteration of existing site conditions, facility design or operational
controls that will prevent a violation of standards at the Compliance Boundary, and
implement that plan upon its approval by the Director.
5. All components of the groundwater recovery, treatment and disposal system shall be
properly weather -proofed to prevent freezing and failure of the system.
6. The groundwater recovery, treatment, and disposal system shall be inspected weekly. If it
is determined that the system is malfunctioning, all repairs should be made as soon as
possible and reported to the Raleigh Regional Office.
7. Two (2) weeks prior to system start-up, the Permittee shall notify the Division of
Environmental Management's Raleigh Regional Office that operation is about to
commence.
1. Adequate inspection, maintenance and cleaning shall be provided by the Permittee to insure
proper operation of the subject facilities.
2. The Permittee or his designee shall inspect the groundwater recovery and treatment
facilities to prevent malfunctions and deterioration, operator errors and discharges which
may cause or lead to the release of wastes to the environment, a threat to human health, or a
nuisance. The Pemfittee 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 of Environmental Management or other permitting authority.
