Subject: Completion of Permanent Alternate Water Supply Requirements Under General
Statute 130A-309.211(cl)
Dan River Combined Cycle Station
Dear Mr. Draovitch:
On August 3, 2018, the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) received a
request from Duke Energy for Dan River Combined Cycle Station for confirmation of completion
of the permanent alternate water provision under the Coal Ash Management Act (CAMA) General
Statute (G.S.) 130A -309.211(c1). Based on our review of the submitted documentation, DEQ
hereby confirms that Duke Energy has satisfactorily completed the alternate water provision under
CAMA G.S. 130A -309.211(c1) at the Dan River facility.
Please note that, since Duke Energy is still in the process of submitting or finalizing the Corrective
Action Plan for the Dan River facility and the results of groundwater modeling have not yet been
received, DEQ reserves the right to determine that additional households are eligible and shall be
provided permanent alternate water solutions per G.S. 130A-309.211(cl) based on any new
information provided. Any future determination of additional eligible households by DEQ will not
affect this confirmation of Duke's compliance with the October 15, 2018 deadline in G.S. 130A-
309.211(cl). Further, this confirmation letter does not constitute a final classification for any
impoundment under G.S. 130A -309.213(d).
