Sullins Director April 7, 2011 SUBJECT: Well Water Sample Results Dewhite Talbert 178 Burl Owens Rd., Lexington, NC 27292 Davidson County Dear Mr. Talbert: Dee Freeman Secretary Enclosed is a copy of the lab report from your well taken on March 14, 2011 by Derek Denard and Shuying Wang with Aquifer Protection Section of the North Carolina Division of Water Quality Winston-Salem Regional Office. In addition, please see Well Sampling Summary below (page 2) with results compared to groundwater standards. With the exception of Fecal Coliform and Iron all results met groundwater standards found in the North Carolina Administrative Code 15A NCAC 02L .0202. The Iron result was 610 µg/L (the groundwater standard is 300 µg/L). The higher Iron concentration is likely from natural sources such as the geology of the area or from your plumbing since the sample was taken from a spigot. The Fecal Coliform result for the well water was 640 colonies/100 mL (the groundwater standard is (colony/100 mL) and is considered unsafe for human consumption. If you have any concerns about health effects, please contact the N.C. Occupational and Environmental Epidemiology Branch at (919) 733-3410 or your local health department. Please note that these results do not indicate a possible source for the Fecal Coliform such as the land application of animal waste or wastewater residuals. Sources of the Fecal Coliform could be from numerous natural, domestic, and agricultural sources. These other sources of Fecal Coliform could include pets, livestock, wildlife, and septic systems that influence groundwater quality nearer the surface. The presence of Fecal Coliform in your well may be attributed to your well construction. Since your well is a bored type well, it is most likely not grouted (scaled) from water on the surface. As a result, bored type wells receive groundwater from sources closer to the surface instead of the deeper aquifer. Well construction standards for Water Supply Wells are found in North Carolina Administrative Code 15A NCAC 02C .0108. Please see the enclosed brochure "Water Supply Well Construction" for information on drilling and construction standards for a safe and dependable water supply.

More than half of the people who live in North Carolina rely on groundwater wells as their primary source of household water. Well pollution that does occur in water supply wells is typically due to improper well location or well construction. The Division of Water Quality's mission is to protect and enhance North Carolina's surface water and groundwater resources for the citizens of North Carolina and future generations. In conjunction with this mission, the North Carolina Well Construction Standards (15A NCAC 02C .0100) were developed to require the location, construction, repair, and abandonment of wells, and the Installation of pumps and pumping equipment to conform to such reasonable standards and requirements as may be necessary to protect the public welfare, safety, health, and ground water resources. Permits All wells must conform to minimum specifications for construction and teiting. Before you can construct a well, you must first obtain a permit. Permits for domestic water supply wells are issued through your' local county health department. For a list of county health departments: Irttp://wwwncalhd:or !c� ourily,htm Certified Well Contractors If you hire a well contractor to construct, repair or abandon your domestic water supply well or any other well, North Carolina iequires that the driller must be certified by the Stite's Well Contractors Certification Commission. You can check to see if your driller is certified by visiting the North Carolina Well Contractor's Certification Commission website at: hit :111h2o.enr.state.nG.us/wGindeK.hrm Water Suooly Well Coristruction The following are general construction standards for Water Supply Wells. Construction standards for wells other than water supply can be found in 15A NCAC 02C .0108. Location: Water supply wells have set back requirements to minimize the potential for contamination to enter the well of seep around the well and into the groundwater. Some potential sources of contamination requiring setbacks are: • Septic tanks, drainfields, drainfield ir areas, cesspools, and privies • Animal barns and feedlots • Building perimeters, Including attached structures • Chemical or petroleum storage tanks • Landfills For a complete list of set back requirements, please refer to 15A NCAC 02C .0107(a). Casing: A casing Is the pipe or tubing that is installed in the borehole of the well that helps support the sides of hole from caving and can also prevent contamination from entering the well. In general, a well must be cased with approved casing to a depth of at least 20 feet. However, some localities require greater casing depths and some localities will allow casing to depth of less than 20 feet. Check with your Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) Aquifer Protection Section (APS) regional office to determine the re ed casing depth for your area. This info is also found in 15A NCAC 02C .0116 and�l7. If the well is constructed to obtain water from a consolidated rock formation, the casing must be seated at least five feet Into the consolidated rock. Also, a drive shoe must be attached to the bottom of the casing it the casing is driven into rock. The drive shoe protects the casing from damage during instatletlon. If the well is constructed to obtain water from an CONTACT INFORMATION If you have any questions about disinfecting your well, please call your regional DENR Aquifer Protection Section for more information.

Disinfecting your water supply well and piping system is an effective way to ensure that your water is sanitary and safe to drink. Disinfection of a water supply well is necessary if lest results indicate bacterial contamination. Chlorination of your well, piping system, and water heater is also necessary if your well is contaminated by flood water. Disinfection may be used to control iron and sulfur bacteria to a limited degree. You may also wish to chlorinate your well as part of an annual well maintenance practice. In addition, all water wells are required to be disinfected upon completion of construction, maintenance, repairs or pump installation and testing. microscope. The standard method of disinfection produces a 100 parts per million (or 100 milligrams per liter) chlorine concentration in your water. Another type of chlorination termed "shock chlorination" uses the same methods to introduce chlorine but achieves at least a 200 parts per million residual chlorine or more. Shock chlorination is typically recommended when test results indicate the presence of bacteria. REMEMBERI The only people allowed to break a well seal are the well owner, plumbers installing or repairing well pumps, and certified well contractors. Hour to Chlorinate Your Water �ly Well To safely chlorinate your well, you should use safety goggles, gloves and appropriate clothing. Follow chlorine product manufacturer's instructions. Concentrated chlorine can produce holes in clothing and skin burns. You can use household bleach or a solution made from high test calcium hypachlorite containing 65% - 75% available chlorine. High-test calcium hypochlorite, including trade names HTH and Chlor-Tabs, is available from home improvement stores, swimming pool product suppliers, and driller supply stores. Do not use stabilized chlorine tablets or any chlorine product that contains fungicides, aigaecides or other disinfectants; read the product labe carefully. You may wish to ask the well contractor that installed your wethe! have these products available. To determine the amount of chlorine c calcium hypochlorite needed to produce 100 parts per million residual chlorin solution, you must follow these steps: 1) Determine the thickness of the wab column in your well. To accomplish thi- you must determine the depth to water froi • s Permit: AWC290021 Owner - Facility: Red Acres Farm LLC Facility Number: 290021 Inspection Date: 03/1112011 Inspection Type: Compliance Inspection Reason for Visit: Complaint Inspection Summary: Today's inspection was the result of a complaint received from the Davidson County health Dept. regarding a complaint they received from a Mr. Talbert. Per the County Health Dept., on March 8, 2011 Mr. Talbert brought what was purported to be a sample of his well water into their office. The sample was reportedly black in color and Mr. Talbert alleged that his well hadbeencontaminated by the recent application of municipal sludge onto the field next to his property. Through follow-up conversations between APS-WSRO staff and Mr. Talbert, our office was told by Mr. Talbert that the waste was, reportedly, animal waste from a nearby cattle farm. Upon further investigation, staff discovered that the application field is owned by David Leon Phillips, Jr. and received an application of dairy waste from Red Acres Farm, LLC. on March 5, 2010. The application field in question is Tract-3070 Field-1 and is listed in the farm's Waste Utilization Plan (WUP). 10. Per the operator's records, approximately 164,000 gal. of slurry waste was applied onto 23.21 acres of land to be planted in com within 30 days. Since the agronomic rate is 197 lbs. N/acre and the waste was applied at only 70lbs. N/acre (based on a waste analysis of 9.9lbs. N/1000 gal.), there was no overapplication of nitrogen. The field is currently covered in soybean stubble. Additionally, no run-off of waste from the field was observed. There is a wooded buffer between the field and Mr. Talbert's property and the waste was applied at least 20 feet away from the property line. The application field was not frozen or wet at the time of application, however, it did receive 1.3 inches of rain in the 24 hours post -application. All of the operators waste applicationrecords appeared to be complete and in order."- DWQ did document, however, that the _animal -waste was —applied approximately 90 feet from Mr. Talbert's well. The farm's WUP states that waste shall not be applietl any closer than 100 feet to wells. It should be noted that Mr. Talbert's concrete well cover was observed to be askew and nor properly placed over the well opening. Although no animal waste was detected on Mr. Talbert's property, the operator of the cattle farm was cautioned about application set -backs in the future. Page:2 Or AWC zRoo, l \1 J.

This installation meets NRCS design and specification requirements and is hereby approved for cost share payment. The work includes installing a second -stage waste storage pond with skimmer pipe and emergency spillway. In reviewing the design package, I found some adjustments to be made. These new calculations resulted in altering the crest elevation of the emergency spillway and the elevation of the "begin pump" max liquid level marker. Both of these changes were carried out. My revised calculations are to be filed in the case file.

This bill required that a properly certified operator be designated as the Operator in Charge for each animal waste management system that serves 250 or more swine, 100 or more confined cattle, 75 or more horses, 1,000 or more sheep, or 30,000 or more confined poultry with a liquid animal waste management system. The deadline for designating an Operator in Charge for animal waste management systems involving cattle, horses, sheep, or poultry was January 1, 1997. Because a training and certification program was not yet available for these systems, you were allowed to apply for and were issued a temporary animal waste management certificate from the Water Pollution Control System Operators Certification Commission (WPCSOCC). Because you applied for and were issued a temporary certificate, you were allowed to be designated as the Operator in Charge of an animal waste management system. Your temporary certificate expires December 31, 1997, and is not renewable. Our records indicate that you have not obtained a permanent animal waste management system operator certification. If you intend to remain the Operator in -Charge of the facility for which you were designated, you must obtain a permanent animal waste management system operator certification of the appropriate type before your temporary certification expires on December 31, 1997. To obtain a permanent certification, you must be 18 years of age, complete ten hours of approved training, and pass an examination. If you do not intend to remain the Operator in Charge, a properly certified animal waste management system operator must be designated as Operator in Charge of the facility prior to the expiration of your temporary certification. This year's final training program for both Type A and Type B animal waste management systems is scheduled for December 10 and 11, 1997, at the Hunt Horse Complex in Raleigh. If you would like information about this training program, please contact your local cooperative extension agent or call Dee Ann Cooper at 919/515-6968. For those enrolled in this training and registering with Ms. Cooper prior to December 1, an exam will be offered at the Hunt Horse Complex on December 11, beginning at 1:00 pm.
