Brownfields Project No. 21048-17-060
Dear Mr. Arora:
The North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) Brownfields Program received
a request to export fill from the Wepak Corporation Brownfields Property (21048-17-060), owned
by 332 West Bland Street, LLC. This request was submitted on your behalf by Mr. Ralph McGee
of Hart & Hickman, PC on November 27, 2018 via email. Saturated conditions in the planned
parking area at the Bland Street and Church Street intersection are preventing the general
contractor from compacting the soil to levels meeting geotechnical requirements for placement of
asphalt. DEQ Brownfields and Solid Waste Section reviewed the provided representative soil
sampling results as well as previously collected soil samples for arsenic from the Reeves Land
Clearing and Inert Debris Landfill. Soils associated with SS-1, SS-2, and SS-3 may be managed
at a MSW Landfill, a Construction & Demolition (C&D) Landfill, or at the Reeves LCID Landfill.
Per the Wepak Corporation EMP, the soils will be field screened during excavation prior to export
from the property. If unanticipated impacts are identified during excavation, please refer to the
EMP for further actions and cease transfer until appropriate characterization can be completed.
In accordance with the site's approved EMP, an annual Redevelopment Summary Report will be
submitted to DEQ Brownfields. Details related to the disposition of this soil including but not
limited to, total volume, general description of field screening efforts, etc. should be included with
the Redevelopment Summary Report.
