VI. GENERAL CONDITIONS
1. Failure to abide by the conditions and Iimitations contained in this permit may subject the Permittee

6. In the event there is a desire for the facilities to change ownership, or there is a name change of the
Permittee, a formal permit request must be submitted to the Division on official Division forms,
documentation from the parties involved, and other supporting materials as may be appropriate. The
approval of this request will be considered on its merits and may or may not be approved. The
Permittee of record shall remain fully responsible for compliance until a permit is issued to the new
owner.
7. The Permittee shall retain a set of approved plans and specifications for the life of the facilities
permitted herein.
8. The Permittee shall maintain this permit until all permitted facilities herein are properly closed or
permitted under another permit issued by the appropriate permitting authority.
9. The Permittee must pay the annual fee within 30 days after being billed by the Division. Failure to
pay the fee accordingly may cause the Division to initiate action to revoke this permit pursuant to
15A NCAC 02T .0105(e).

Notes:
1, 3 X year monitoring shall be conducted in April, August, and December; Annual monitoring shall be conducted every December.
2. The measurement of water levels shall be made prior to purging the wells. The depth to water in each well shall be measured from the surveyed point on the top of the casing. The measurement
of pH shall be made alter purging and prior to sampling for the remaining parameters. t
3. 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. The measuring points (top
of casing) of all monitoring wells shall be surveyed relative to a common datum.
4. Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) - In December only, analyze by one of the following methods:
a. Standard Method 6230D, PQL at 0.5 gg/L or less
b. Standard Method 621OD, PQL at 0.5 pg/L or less
c. EPA Method 8021, Low Concentration, PQL at 0.5 µg/L, or less
d. EPA Method 8260, Low Concentration, PQL at 0.5 µg/L or less
e. Another method with prior approval by the Aquifer Protection Section Chief
Any method used must meet the following qualifications:
a. A laboratory must be DWQ certified to run any method used.
b. The method used must, at a minimum, include all the constituents listed in Table Vlll of Standard Method 6230D.
c. The method used must provide a PQL of 0.5 pg/L or less that 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 of 0.5 µg/L must be qualified (estimated) and reported.
5. If any volatile organic compounds (VOC) are detected as a result of monitoring as provided in Attachment C, then the Raleigh Regional Office Aquifer Protection Supervisor, telephone number
[phone] must be contacted immediately for further instructions regarding any additional follow-up analyses required.
WQ0021934 Version 2.0 Attachment C Pagel of 2

6. If TOC concentrations greater than 10 mg/l 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/l, 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.
7. Monitoring wells shall be reported consistent with the nomenclature and location information provided in Figure Y and this attachment.
