Re: Well Samples Required: WELL-05-2019-116000,Site Address:4089 LOVE RD
Since July 151, 2008, a program mandated by the State of North Carolina to regulate private drinking
water wells required all county well programs to sample new wells constructed after that date.
According to Rules .3801, .3802,and .3803 of the North Carolina Administrative Code (15A NCAC 18A)
all wells must be sampled for bacteria, nitrate, nitrite, pH, and a number of naturally occurring inorganic
minerals.
Our records indicate that we have not been notified that your well has power and is ready for sampling.
Despite this, our office has made several attempts to check the status of the well and potentially
collect the samples but have been unable to do so, due to a locked property gate or other property
inaccessibility. Please contact our office so that we can schedule a time, at your convenience,to meet
at the property and collect the required samples.
The fees normally charged for these samples were included in the cost of your well permit, so there is
no additional charge for this service. The samples will be taken from an outside source.The sample test
results will be sent to you when they are received by our office. Typical process time is 6-8 weeks.
Please contact our office if we can answer any questions or provide additional assistance. You may reach
our office at(828)465-8270, or by e-mail at: EHAdministrativeAssistants@catawbacountync.gov.
