The term “inactive” refers to the fact that cleanup was inactive at large numbers of sites at the time of program enactment. This data set includes closed remediation sites that have land use restrictions recorded as part of the remedy.The purpose of this data set is to provide a geographic representation of the location of inactive hazardous sites. This dataset is intended for general planning and mapping purposes (rather than highly accurate analytical or public health purposes). Many of the data points were collected through automatic geocoding methods using the address field. In many cases the address information is limited. Due to limits on currently available location information, some locations may be off by several miles.The Inactive Hazardous Sites Branch (IHSB), within the Superfund Section of the DWM, is responsible for oversight and approval of the assessment and remediation of all historical, and any recent accidental releases of hazardous substances and pollutants with the exceptions outlined below. The Branch oversees remedial actions, conducts any necessary enforcement of assessment and remediation at sites deemed to be a priority, and conducts the work itself at orphaned sites when state resources are available for such. For more information regarding the IHSB program, please visit http://portal.ncdenr.org/web/wm/sf/ihshome-83.966448-75.54345036.54780133.912700ISO 19115 Topic CategoryenvironmentEPA GIS Keyword ThesaurusCleanupComplianceContaminantEnvironmentHazardsHealthMonitoringRegulatoryRemediationSitesSpillsNoneNorth CarolinaUserDivision of Waste ManagementDWMhazardous substancesIHSBinactive hazardous siteInactive Hazardous Sites BranchNC DENRNorth Carolina Department of Environment and Natural ResourcesNorth Carolina General Statute 130A-310remediationThe North Carolina Inactive Hazardous Sites Response Act of 1987Inventory of regulated sites20150107CompleteAs neededNone.None.

Location data were plotted against the NC state county and municipal boundaries and checked for agreement. Distances calculated to be greater than 1000 feet between existing data and new data created through a number of mass geocodings were used to identify sites needing review of paper file records. Locations were corrected if necessary using on screen placement and Acme Mapper. Sites with geolocation method “Unknown or supplied by others” and having no street address, had their locations rechecked against paper file maps and corrected if necessary using on screen placement in Acme MapperVary by collection methodology. Please refer to the Location Methodology the internal metadata field GEOLOCATIO for details.20090527Data excerpt including 1906 records depicting inactive hazardous sites was acquired from Inactive Hazardous Sites Branch. Among other fields, the excerpt contains the recorded location methodology and site identifier.20090601Integrity tests against the NC county boundaries layer (see description of source data within this metadata under the Data Quality Information section) indicated suspect location data for 52 of the 1906 sites.

Conducted mass geocoding on address field and compared distance between the two sets of coordinates. If > 1000 feet apart, coordinates were rechecked against paper file maps and corrected if necessary using on screen placement in Acme Mapper. If those sites were also residential properties and plotted > 150 feet apart, locations were rechecked against paper file maps and corrected if necessary. In addition, the newly generated geocoded coordinates plotting <100 feet from the Unknowns, were uploaded so as to have an improved geolocation method.20131112Reviewed sites with geolocation method “Unknown or supplied by others” and having no street address, along with some sites with no DWQ file records.
