During the meeting, DEMLR and DWR staff emphasized the need for a more focused and immediate response to determinethe potential for another failure incident similarto that which occurredat the Dan River plant. You will recall that failure ofa corrugated metal pipe (CMP) storm drain installed beneaththe primary ash pond reservoir in the mid 1950's was the causeof the February 2, 2014 coal ash spill incident. As basis for discussion on this, you were provided with a document showing the resultsofrecentvisual inspectionsby DEMLR staffat the 14coal combustion (or former coal combustion) plant sites focused on the condition and material makeup ofdecant/spillway structures. A copy ofthis document is attachedto this letter. These inspections took placebetween February 20,2014 and March 1,2014. Duringthe inspection process, it was noted that eight ofthe thirty three jurisdictionalcoal ash ponds were served by decant structures with CMP components, one ofwhich was discovered by DEMLR staffon March 1, 2014 to have an active leak. Sixteen ofthe thirty three jurisdictional coal ash ponds were served by decant structures made of formed, cast and pipe configured concrete.
