Re: Well Samples Required. Permit: WELL-05-2020-132231
Site Address: 4424 Laney Rd, Maiden NC 28650
Our records indicate that the above referenced well permit was issued 5/11/2020. We have received a well
record from your well contractor indicating the well has been completed.
In recent weeks, our staff inspected the completed work and noted that well tags were missing and the
spigot does not have a backflow preventer. For these reasons, we cannot final your well case and issue a
Well Certificate of Completion. Despite this, the fee you paid for the well permit included water samples.
If you would like our office to sample and test your well water, please contact us at the number below.
The samples would be taken from an outside source, so it is not necessary that you are present.There is no
additional charge for these samples.The sample test results would be sent to you when they are received
by our office.Typical process time is 6-8 weeks.
If you have additional questions, please call us at (828)465-8270, or by e-mail at:

BIOLOGICAL ANALYSIS REPORT
Private well water information and recommendations -

BIOLOGICAL ANALYSIS RESULTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR USES OF YOUR
PRIVATE WELL WATER(These recommendations are based on biological analysis only.)
X No coliform bacteria were found in your well water. Your water can be used for all purposes
including drinking, cooking, washing dishes,bathing and showering.
Total coliform bacteria were detected in your water sample. Total Coliform are a group of related
bacteria that are(with few exceptions)not harmful to humans. A variety of bacteria,parasites,and
viruses, known as pathogens, can potentially cause health problems if humans ingest them. EPA considers
total coliforms a useful indicator of other pathogens for drinking water. Total coliforms are used to
determine the adequacy of water treatment and the integrity of the distribution system
It is recommended that your well water be re-tested to verify that the result is accurate.
Fecal coliform bacteria were detected in the sample. Do not use the water for drinking,
cooking,washing dishes,bathing or showering.
If the re-test shows contamination by bacteria contact your local health department for assistance. There
may be a problem with the construction of the well,the groundwater source, or operation of the well. The
well needs to be inspected by the local health department or a local well contractor to determine the
problem with the well and to give guidance on how to correct the problem.
Your well water was tested for biological contaminants(total coliform and fecal coliform bacteria).The
results were evaluated using the federal drinking water standards.
Drinking water may contain substances that can occur naturally in water or can be introduced into water
from man-made sources. Total coliform bacteria are found in soil and fecal coliform bacteria are found in
animal and human waste. Total coliform or fecal coliform bacteria in well water indicate that the well
may have structural problems or that the well was not properly disinfected.
If you have been drinking the well water and are pregnant,nursing, have a child in the household under 5
years of age,or immunocompromised (such as an individual with AIDS, cancer, hepatitis, dialysis or
surgical procedures) inform your physician of these results at your next visit.
If the contamination continues,you should investigate the possibility of drilling a new well or installing a
point-of-entry disinfection unit which can use chlorine,ultraviolet light, or ozone.
For further information please contact your county health department or the Occupational and
Environmental Epidemiology Branch at 919-707-5900.

TEST RESULTS AND USE RECOMMENDATIONS
1. ® Your well water meets federal drinking water standards for inorganic chemicals. Your water can be used for
drinking, cooking,washing,cleaning,bathing, and showering based on the inorganic chemical results only. You may
have other water sampling results that are not taken into account in this report.
2. ❑ The following substance(s)exceeded federal drinking water standards or the North Carolina 2L calculated health
levels.The North Carolina Division of Public Health recommends that your well water not be used for drinking and
cooking, unless you install a water treatment system to remove the circled substance(s). However, it may be used for
washing, cleaning,bathing and showering based on the inorganic chemical results on(v.
❑ Arsenic ❑ Barium ❑ Cadmium ❑ Chromium ❑ Copper ❑ Fluoride ❑ Iron
❑ Lead ❑ Manganese ❑ Mercury ❑Nickel ❑Nitrate/Nitrite ❑ Selenium ❑ Silver
❑Zinc
3. ❑ While your lead levels do not exceed federal or state standards,the North Carolina Division of Public Health has
concerns with any detection of lead. Should you have any questions please contact the NC Private Well and Health
Program at(919) 707-5900.
4. ❑ Re-sample for lead and/or copper. Take a first draw and 30-second flush sample inside the house(preferably the
kitchen sink) and a first draw and 4 minutes flush sample at the wellhead to determine the source of lead and/or copper.
5. ❑ The following substance(s)exceeded aesthetic drinking water standards. Your water can be used for drinking,
cooking,washing, cleaning, bathing, and showering based on the inorganic chemical results oniv, but aesthetic problems
such as bad taste, odor, staining of porcelain, etc. may occur. You may want to install a household water treatment system
to address aesthetic problems.
❑ Chloride ❑ Copper ❑ Fluoride ❑ Iron ❑ Manganese
❑ pH ❑ Silver n Sulfate ❑ Zinc
6. ❑ a. Sodium levels exceed the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's(USEPA)Health Advisory level for sodium of
20 mg/l. The North Carolina Division of Public Health recommends that only individuals on no or low sodium-restricted
diets not use this water for drinking or cooking. It may be used for washing, cleaning, bathing, and showering based on
the inorganic chemical results only.
❑ b. Your sodium level exceeds 30 mg/l and may pose aesthetic issues such as bad taste, odor, staining of porcelain,etc.
7. ❑ Re-sampling is recommended in months,to reinvestigate
