H&H Project No. ATL-001

Dear Carolyn:
1.0 Introduction

On behalf of CAMP Landowner, LP, Hart & Hickman, PC (H&H) is presenting this work plan
to conduct shallow soil sampling activities below the water tower at the Rite Aid Brownfields
property (Brownfields Project No. 20050-16-060) located at 1776 Statesville Avenue in
Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina (see Figure 1). In accordance with the
Brownfields Agreement approved for the site by the North Carolina Department of
Environmental Quality (DEQ) in October 2017, H&H proposes to collect shallow soil samples in
the “Area of Potential Soil Contamination” below a water tower as depicted on the plat
component of the Notice of Brownfields.

The soil sampling activities will be conducted in general accordance with the methods stated in
the DEQ Inactive Hazardous Sites Branch (IHSB) Guidance documents for the purpose of
determining if shallow soil (0 to 1 ft below the ground surface) located below the water tower is
non-hazardous and can be reused on the Brownfields Site during pending redevelopment
activities in this area, or if the shallow soil is hazardous and will require disposal at an off-site
permitted facility that can except and treat hazardous waste. A summary of our proposed
shallow soil sampling activities in this area is provided in the following sections.

2.0 Scope of Work

2.1 Shallow Soil Sampling and Laboratory Analysis

H&H proposes to advance five (5) shallow soil borings (CS-1 to CS-5) to a depth of one (1) ft
bgs below a water tower which will be submitted to the laboratory with direction that the
laboratory composite the samples into one (1) composite soil sample (COMP-1). H&H will
request that the laboratory analyze the COMP-1 soil sample for Toxicity Characteristic Leaching
Procedure (TCLP) metals analysis. The soil borings will be advanced with a decontaminated
stainless-steel hand auger and the soil samples will be field screened for the presence of odor,
staining, and elevated photoionization detector (PID) readings. H&H will request that the
laboratory hold the grab soil samples used to create the composite sample for possible analysis to
assist in delineation of soil if impacts are identified. Proposed soil sample locations are depicted
on Figure 2.

2.2 IDW Management

Investigation derived waste (IDW) soil cuttings will be placed back into the soil boring at each
location. If significant impacts are suspected in the soil cuttings based on field screening, those
soils will be placed into a sealed container for waste profiling and proper disposal.

2.3 Report Preparation

After receipt of the data, an assessment report will be prepared for submittal to DEQ. The report
will include the methods of the shallow soil sampling activities, a map depicting the locations of
the samples, a summary table of soil data comparing the COMP-1 sample TCLP results with US
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) maximum concentrations, and conclusions and
recommendations concerning our soil sampling activities.
