1.0 Introduction
On behalf of Common Square Development LLC (Prospective Developer or PD),
Hart & Hickman, PC (H&H) is providing this Work Plan to conduct Brownfields assessment
activities at the West Boulevard Brownfields property (Brownfields Project No. 22076-18-060)
located at 200, 204, 208, 212, 216, and 224 West Boulevard, and 1721 and 1725 S. Tryon Street
in Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina (Site or subject Site). The Site consists of
eight contiguous parcels totaling approximately 1.9 acres of land located in a mixed commercial
and residential area of South End Charlotte. A Site location map is provided as Figure 1.
The southern portion of the Site along West Boulevard is developed with three former residences
that have most recently been used for commercial purposes including a salon, a clothing store,
and a law office. The western portion of the Site at the West Boulevard and S. Tyron Street
intersection is developed with a restaurant building and the northwestern portion of the Site
along S. Tryon Street is developed with a vacant residence. Remaining portions of the Site
include vacant undeveloped parcels. Surrounding properties include the Wilmore Centennial
Park located to the north, a high-density residential apartment complex located to the east, West
Boulevard and the Carolina Foods facility located to the south, and S. Tryon Street with a
restaurant and residences located to the west. The Site and surrounding area are shown in
Figure 2.
1.1 Background
The southern portion of the Site along West Boulevard and the western portion of the Site along
S. Tryon Street were developed with residences as early as the 1920s. The residential structures
were removed from the Site over time or were converted for use as commercial tenant spaces
with the exception of the residence located at 1725 S. Tryon Street. The 1725 S. Tryon Street

building is currently unoccupied, but has remained residential over time. The western corner of
the Site at the West Boulevard and S. Tryon Street intersection was undeveloped land as early as
the 1920s until the late 1940s to early 1950s when it was developed with a gasoline filling
station facility. Operations on the western corner parcel included a filling station until the 1960s,
an auto repair and detailing business from the 1970s until the 1980s, and a restaurant from the
1980s until the early to mid-2000s. The western Site building remained vacant from the mid-
2000s until the current restaurant (Sauceman’s) opened in approximately 2010.
Historically, properties adjacent to the Site were developed primarily for residential purposes
prior to the late 1920s. Several industrial and/or commercial facilities including a silk mill, a
brass foundry, a linen manufacturing and dyeing facility, and a food manufacturing facility
operated south of the Site as early as the 1920s. In the early to mid-1960s commercial
development increased to the south of the Site when the current Carolina Foods facility
expanded. By the 1990s, the Site area transitioned into a mixed commercial and residential area
of South End Charlotte. In recent years, properties in the vicinity of the Site to the north and east
have rapidly been redeveloped for high-density residential and commercial/retail purposes along
the nearby Lynx Blue Line light-rail.
1.2 Previous Environmental Assessments
Coastal Environmental Consulting, Inc (CEC) completed soil and groundwater assessment
activities at the Site between 2009 and 2015 to evaluate the potential for impacts associated with
on-Site filling station/auto repair operations and from potential off-Site sources. H&H has
reviewed the following CEC prepared reports and provided a brief summary of the assessment
results below:
Phase I & Limited Phase II Environmental Site Assessment, Commercial Site, 0.302 +/-
Acres, 224 & 228 West Boulevard, Charlotte, North Carolina dated March 2009
CEC reported that results of ground penetrating radar (GPR) survey activities completed at the
Site in December 2007 did not identify underground storage tanks (USTs) in the area of the

Assessment Work Plan\final to DEQ\Brownfields Assessment Work Plan Rev.1_West Boulevard (BPN
22076-18-060)_20190314.doc
former gasoline filling station operations in the western portion of the Site. March 2009
assessment activities completed by CEC consisted of collection of soil samples for laboratory
analysis of total petroleum hydrocarbons as gasoline range organics and diesel range organics
(TPH-GRO and TPH-DRO) in the area of the former UST systems. In addition, a groundwater
sample was collected for laboratory analysis of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the area
of the former UST basin. Approximate CEC soil and groundwater sample locations are shown
in Figure 2.
Laboratory analytical results of soil samples collected from the UST basin and dispenser islands
indicated that TPH-GRO and TPH-DRO were not detected above the laboratory reporting limits.
No petroleum-related compounds were detected in the groundwater sample collected from the
UST basin, however a low level of trichloroethene (TCE) was detected at 5.42 micrograms per
liter (µg/L) which exceeds the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) 2L
Groundwater Quality Standards (2L Standard) of 3.0 µg/L and the DEQ Division of Waste
Management (DWM) Residential Vapor Intrusion Groundwater Screening Level (GWSL) of 1.0
µg/L and the DWM Non-Residential GWSL of 4.4 µg/L.
Soil and Groundwater Sampling Report, Commercial Site, 0.302 +/- Acres, 224 & 228
West Boulevard, Charlotte, North Carolina dated February 2010
In January 2010, CEC completed additional soil and groundwater assessment activities in the
western portion of the Site to further evaluate the source of TCE impacts identified in the March
2009 groundwater sample. Four temporary groundwater monitoring wells were installed along
the southern Site boundary near West Boulevard for collection of groundwater samples in
upgradient portions of the Site to evaluate the potential for impacts from off-Site sources
(Figure 2). CEC collected two soil samples (shallow and deeper soil samples) from each
temporary monitoring well boring and two additional soil samples were collected from a boring
advanced in the area of the former UST basin. The soil and groundwater samples were
submitted for laboratory analysis of VOCs.

Assessment Work Plan\final to DEQ\Brownfields Assessment Work Plan Rev.1_West Boulevard (BPN
22076-18-060)_20190314.doc
Soil sample analytical results indicated that no VOCs were detected at concentrations above the
laboratory reporting limits in any of the ten (10) January 2010 soil samples. Groundwater
assessment results indicated that low levels of TCE (up to 13.5 ug/L) were detected at
concentrations exceeding the 2L Standards and GWSLs in each of the upgradient southern Site
boundary groundwater samples.
Limited Soil and Groundwater Assessment, Sauceman's Restaurant, 220, 224 & 228 West
Blvd, Charlotte, North Carolina, dated September 8, 2015
In August 2015, CEC personnel completed receptor survey activities in a 1,500 ft radius of the
Site as well as additional soil and groundwater assessment activities along the southern Site
boundary. Receptor survey results did not identify water supply wells, wellhead protection
areas, or surface water bodies located within the receptor survey search radii. Soil and
groundwater assessment activities included advancing four soil borings for collection of shallow
and deeper soil samples. Upon completion of the soil sampling activities, temporary
groundwater monitoring wells were installed within three of the four soil borings for collection
of groundwater samples (Figure 2). Soil and groundwater samples were submitted for laboratory
analysis of VOCs.
Soil sample analytical results indicate that no compounds were detected at concentrations
exceeding the DEQ Inactive Hazardous Sites Branch (IHSB) Preliminary Soil Remediation
Goals (PSRGs) in any of the soil samples.
Several compounds were detected in the groundwater samples at concentrations exceeding the
laboratory reporting limits. Low levels of tetrachloroethene or PCE (up to 3.8 µg/L) were
detected in each groundwater sample at concentrations exceeding the 2L Standard of 0.7 µg/L.
In addition, 1,1-dichloroethene (13 µg/L) was detected in one of the three groundwater samples
at a concentration exceeding the 2L Standard of 7 µg/L. Similar to previous groundwater
assessment activities completed along the southern Site boundary, TCE (up to 49 µg/L) was
detected in each groundwater sample at concentrations exceeding the 2L Standards and GWSLs.

Assessment Work Plan\final to DEQ\Brownfields Assessment Work Plan Rev.1_West Boulevard (BPN
22076-18-060)_20190314.doc
In summary, CEC assessment results indicate that former UST systems associated with historical
filling station operations are no longer present at the Site. In addition, results of soil and
groundwater assessment activities completed in the area of the former UST systems did not
identify evidence of a release in connection with historical filling station/auto repair operations.
However, results of assessment activities completed on the southern and topographically
upgradient Site boundary indicate that chlorinated solvent groundwater impacts are present in
the western portion of the Site and are attributed to an unknown off-Site source.
The Site received eligibility into the DEQ Brownfields Program via a Letter of Eligibility dated
January 7, 2019. The PD elected to participate in the Brownfields Program Redevelopment Now
option to expedite the Brownfields process. As part of this process, a kick-off/data gap meeting
with the PD, counsel for the PD, DEQ Brownfields personnel, and H&H was held on January 23,
2019 to discuss historical uses of the Site, available environmental information, proposed
redevelopment plans, data gaps, and the proposed schedule for completing the Brownfields
agreement.
The PD plans to redevelop the West Boulevard Brownfields property for high density residential,
office, and retail uses known as The Square at South End. Based on the proposed redevelopment
plan for the Site and conversations with DEQ Brownfields during the recent kick-off/data gap
meeting, H&H proposes to conduct groundwater and soil gas assessment activities at the Site to
further evaluate subsurface conditions for potential impacts. In addition, H&H proposes to
collect soil samples to evaluate the potential for impacts in areas of proposed cut during grading
as well as along the roof drip lines associated with former and existing residential buildings at
the Site. H&H will also collect background soil samples to establish Site-specific ranges for
naturally occurring metals. Although CEC completed receptor survey activities in the area
surrounding the Site as part of the 2015 assessment activities, H&H will complete receptor
survey activities for DEQ Brownfields purposes. The proposed Brownfields assessment
activities are outlined in the following sections.

Assessment Work Plan\final to DEQ\Brownfields Assessment Work Plan Rev.1_West Boulevard (BPN
22076-18-060)_20190314.doc
2.0 Brownfields Assessment Activities
The proposed assessment activities will be performed in general accordance with the DEQ IHSB
Guidelines for Assessment and Cleanup (Guidelines) dated October 2015, the DEQ DWM Vapor
Intrusion Guidance (VI Guidance) dated March 2018, and most recent versions of the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region IV Science and Ecosystem Support Division
(SESD) Field Branches Quality System and Technical Procedures guidance.
Prior to conducting field activities, H&H will contact North Carolina 811, the public utility
locator, to mark subsurface utilities located on the Site. H&H will also contract with a private
utility locator to screen proposed sample locations for subgrade utilities that may not be marked
by the public locator. Additionally, soil boring locations will be hand cleared to approximately 5
feet (ft) below the ground surface (bgs) prior to use of mechanical drilling equipment to further
screen the boring locations for the presence of subsurface utilities.
In accordance with Mecklenburg County rules, H&H will also obtain a Subsurface Investigation
Permit (SIP) from Mecklenburg County prior to temporary monitoring well installation and
sampling. After completion of the assessment activities, H&H will update the SIP on the
Mecklenburg County Well Information database with North Carolina licensed driller temporary
monitoring well abandonment records.
2.1 Receptor Survey
H&H will perform a Brownfields receptor survey in accordance with DEQ Brownfields Program
guidance to update the receptor survey information obtained by CEC in 2015. The receptor
survey will include information about land use in the Site area including zoning. H&H will also
conduct a field search for water supply wells, basements, utility manways and chases, storm
sewers, other underground utilities, drains, and surface water within a 1,500 ft radius of the
Brownfield property boundaries. In addition, H&H will review the online Mecklenburg County
Well Information System for potential wells in the area and, if warranted, contact utility
companies for information concerning underground utilities in the immediate area of the Site.

Assessment Work Plan\final to DEQ\Brownfields Assessment Work Plan Rev.1_West Boulevard (BPN
22076-18-060)_20190314.doc
The receptor survey will be completed using the most current version of the Brownfields
Property Receptor Survey form. A copy of a template Brownfields Property Receptor Survey
form is provided as Appendix A.
2.2 Soil Sampling Activities
Review of preliminary cut/fill analysis for the proposed redevelopment indicates that
approximately 600 cubic yards of import fill will be required to achieve final grade elevations.
A copy of the preliminary cut/fill analysis is provided as Appendix B. As shown in the cut/fill
analysis “heat map”, grading activities will include cut to depths up to 5 ft bgs in the
northwestern portion of the Site. Soil generated during grading activities is expected to be re-
used on-Site as part of redevelopment activities.
Background and Cut Area Soil Sampling Activities
To evaluate the potential for impact in areas of cut and to assist in management of soil during
grading activities, H&H proposes to advance three (3) soil borings in the northwestern portion of
the Site to depths corresponding to the approximate planned cut depths. In addition, H&H
proposes to advance two (2) shallow soil borings for collection of soil samples from areas at the
Site that do not appear to have been affected by historical uses to evaluate background
concentrations of metals. Proposed soil sample locations in areas of cut are shown in Figure 3.
The locations of the background soil borings will be determined based on field observations and
review of available historical resources.
The soil borings will be advanced utilizing a decontaminated stainless steel hand auger.
Continuous soil samples will be collected from the center of the hand auger bucket at each
boring. Soil samples will be logged for lithological description and field screened for indication
of potential impacts by observation for staining, odors, and the presence of organic vapors using
a calibrated photoionization detector (PID). Based on field screening results, one soil sample
will be collected from each soil boring for laboratory analysis from the depth interval interpreted
most likely to be impacted. If there is no obvious indication of potential impact in a soil boring
based on field screening results, a soil sample will be collected from shallow soil (i.e., no greater

than 3 ft bgs).
Following collection, the soil samples will be placed directly into dedicated laboratory supplied
sample containers, labeled with the sample identification, date, time, and requested analysis, and
placed in a laboratory supplied cooler with ice. Soil samples from areas of proposed cut will be
will be submitted to a North Carolina certified laboratory under standard chain of custody
protocols for analysis of VOCs by EPA Method 8260, semi-VOCs (SVOCs) by EPA Method
8270, and Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) metals plus hexavalent chromium
by EPA Methods 6020/7471/7199. Background soil samples will be submitted for analysis of
RCRA metals plus hexavalent chromium by EPA Methods 6020/7471/7199.
Drip Line Soil Sampling Activities
H&H proposes to collect shallow samples within the drip line of former and exiting residential
structures to evaluate potential impacts from lead-based paint. Please note that the Site building
located at 200 West Boulevard is an unpainted brick structure. As such, no drip line soil samples
are proposed for the 200 West Boulevard portion of the Site. The locations of the former and
exiting residential structures for drip line soil assessment are shown in Figure 2 and include the
following locations:
1721 S. Tryon Street
1725 S. Tryon Street
204 West Boulevard
208 West Boulevard
212 West Boulevard
216 West Boulevard
224 West Boulevard
One soil sample aliquot will be collected from 0-1 ft bgs on each side of the residences using a
decontaminated stainless steel hand auger. Continuous soil samples will be collected from the
center of the hand auger bucket at each soil boring and described for lithologic purposes,
observed for the presence of staining, and field screened for elevated volatile organic vapors
9

Assessment Work Plan\final to DEQ\Brownfields Assessment Work Plan Rev.1_West Boulevard (BPN
22076-18-060)_20190314.doc
using a calibrated PID. The soil sample aliquots will be combined and homogenized to form one
composite soil sample representative of drip line soil for each residence. Soil samples selected
for laboratory analysis will be collected directly into laboratory supplied glassware, labeled with
the sample identification, date, time, and requested analysis and placed on ice in a laboratory
supplied cooler. The samples will be delivered to a North Carolina certified laboratory under
standard chain of custody protocols for analysis of RCRA metals by EPA Method 6020/7471.
Following sampling activities, the soil borings will be properly abandoned and the surface will
be repaired similar to pre-assessment conditions. Additionally, the soil sample locations will be
estimated using a hand-held global positioning system (GPS) unit.
2.3 Groundwater Sampling Activities
H&H will contract a qualified drilling contractor to advance borings for installation of four (4)
temporary groundwater monitoring wells at the Site. Two temporary monitoring wells will be
installed along the eastern Site boundary near Hawkins Street, one temporary monitoring well
will be installed near the southern Site boundary near West Boulevard in the area of previous
CEC assessments, and one temporary monitoring well will be installed in the downgradient
(northwestern) portion of the Site near S. Tryon Street. Proposed temporary monitoring well
locations are shown in Figure 3.
The temporary groundwater monitoring well borings will be advanced with a track-mounted drill
rig capable of utilizing direct push technology (DPT) drilling techniques. If refusal is
encountered prior to reaching the water table in a proposed temporary groundwater monitoring
well location, H&H will instruct the driller to utilize alternative drilling techniques to advance
the boring to depths corresponding to the water table. H&H anticipates the depth to water to be
approximately 15 to 20 ft bgs. During drilling, continuous soil samples will be collected from
each boring and logged for lithologic description and field screened for the presence of staining,
odors, and the presence of organic vapors using a calibrated PID. Each temporary monitoring
well will be constructed of 1-inch diameter PVC well screen set to bracket the water table and 1-
10
S:\AAA-Master Projects\Beacon Partners- BEP or BCP\BCP-126 The Square at South End\Brownfields
Assessment Work Plan\final to DEQ\Brownfields Assessment Work Plan Rev.1_West Boulevard (BPN
22076-18-060)_20190314.doc
inch diameter PVC well casing to the ground surface. A sand filter pack will be placed from the
bottom of the borings to approximately 2 ft above the top of the well screens. The temporary
wells will be completed by placing a minimum of 2ft of hydrated bentonite seal above the sand
filter pack.
Once the temporary monitoring wells are installed, the wells will be allowed to equilibrate to
static conditions, and a decontaminated electronic water level indicator will be used to measure
the depth to the water table relative to the ground surface and to the top of the well casing in
each well. The elevation of the ground surface and top of casing for each well will be surveyed
relative to an on-Site datum. Using the measured depths to the water table and survey
measurements, H&H will calculate groundwater elevations at each well location and estimate
groundwater flow direction at the Site.
The wells will then be developed by removing a minimum of 3 to 5 volumes and until field
parameters have stabilized (pH± 0.1 Standard Units [SU] and conductivity varies no more than
5%). After development, groundwater samples will be collected utilizing low flow/low stress
purging techniques using a peristaltic pump or bladder pump and dedicated polyethylene tubing.
The intake point of the pump tubing will be placed in the approximate mid-portion of the
screened interval of the well, and groundwater will be removed at a rate no greater than 200
milliliters per minute. H&H will utilize water quality meters to collect measurements of pH,
temperature, dissolved oxygen, oxidation reduction potential, turbidity, and specific conductivity
at three to five-minute intervals during the purging process. Purging will be considered
complete when the field parameters stabilize (pH ± 0.1 SU, conductivity varies no more than
5%, and turbidity is less than 10 Nephelometric Turbidity Units [NTUs]).
Once groundwater parameters stabilize, groundwater samples for VOC analysis will be collected
directly into laboratory supplied sample containers using the “soda straw” method to eliminate
the potential for volatile compound loss through the pump head. Samples collected for the
remaining analyses will be collected directly into laboratory supplied sample containers from the
dedicated sample tubing discharge. The sample containers will be labeled with the sample

identification, date, time, and requested analysis, and placed in a laboratory supplied cooler with
ice. The groundwater samples will be delivered to a North Carolina certified laboratory under
standard chain of custody protocols for analyses of VOCs by EPA Method 8260 and SVOCs by
EPA Method 8270, and RCRA metals by EPA Methods 6020/7471.
Following installation and sampling activities, the groundwater sample locations will be
estimated using a hand-held GPS unit. Following surveying activities, the temporary monitoring
wells will be properly abandoned by a licensed well driller.
2.4 Soil Gas Sampling Activities
H&H proposes to collect exterior soil gas samples within the footprint of proposed buildings to
evaluate the potential for vapor intrusion into future structures. The proposed soil gas sample
locations are depicted on Figure 3.
The soil gas monitoring points will be installed utilizing the track-mounted DPT drill rig to
advance soil borings to approximately 5 to 10 ft bgs. Actual depths of the proposed soil gas
monitoring points will be based on depths to groundwater established during proposed
groundwater assessment activities and will be at depths greater than 5 ft bgs and more than
approximately 5 ft above the measured depth to the water table in the nearest proposed
temporary monitoring well.
After advancing the boring to depth, a six-inch stainless steel vapor implant screen point fitted
with ¼-inch diameter Teflon® tubing will be placed at the base of each borehole. Filter sand will
be placed from the base of the boring to 6 inches above the screened interval and the sampling
points will be completed by placing hydrated bentonite from the top of the filter sand to the
ground surface.
Prior to sample collection, a leak check will be conducted at each soil gas monitoring point by
constructing a shroud around the sampling system and flooding the air within the shroud with
helium gas. Helium within the shroud will be monitored using a helium gas detector. Using a
12
S:\AAA-Master Projects\Beacon Partners- BEP or BCP\BCP-126 The Square at South End\Brownfields
Assessment Work Plan\final to DEQ\Brownfields Assessment Work Plan Rev.1_West Boulevard (BPN
22076-18-060)_20190314.doc
syringe and three-way valve, the sample screen, sand filter pack, and sample tubing will be
purged of minimum of three volumes. Vapor from the soil gas sample tubing will then be
collected outside of the shroud into a Tedlar® bag and analyzed using the helium gas detector to
ensure that helium concentrations are less than 10% of the concentration measured within the
shroud.
Following a successful leak check, the soil gas samples will be collected into laboratory supplied
stainless steel Summa sample canisters connected to in-line flow controllers with a laboratory
calibrated vacuum gauge. The flow controller will be connected to the sample tubing at each
soil gas sampling point using a brass nut and ferrule assembly to form an air-tight seal. The flow
regulator will be pre-set by the laboratory to regulate the soil gas sample intake to a rate no
greater than 200 milliliters per minute. Once the sample train is assembled, the intake valve on
the canister will be fully opened to begin collection of the soil gas sample. Vacuum readings on
the Summa canister will be recorded prior to and following the sampling period to ensure
adequate sample volume was collected. A vacuum will be maintained within the canisters at the
conclusion of the sampling event.
After sample collection, the intake valve will be closed, and the regulator will be disconnected
from the canister. The starting and ending vacuum in each canister will be recorded on the chain-
of-custody and submitted to the laboratory along with the samples. The canisters will be placed in
laboratory supplied shipping containers, properly labeled, and shipped under standard chain of
custody protocols to a qualified laboratory for analysis of VOCs by EPA Method TO-15.
Following sampling activities, the soil gas monitoring point locations will be estimated using a
hand-held GPS unit. The soil gas monitoring points will then be abandoned and the ground
surface will be repaired similar to pre-drilling conditions.

22076-18-060)_20190314.doc
2.5 Quality Assurance – Quality Control
Non-dedicated equipment and tools will be decontaminated prior to use at each boring or
sampling location or following exposure to soil or groundwater. The following samples will be
collected for quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) purposes:
One duplicate groundwater sample will be collected and analyzed for the same
parameters as the parent sample.
One duplicate soil sample will be collected and analyzed for the same parameters as the
parent sample.
One duplicate soil gas sample will be collected and analyzed for VOCs by EPA Method
TO-15.
One trip blank will accompany the groundwater samples during sampling activities and
during sample shipment. The trip blank will be analyzed for VOCs by EPA
Method 8260.
Laboratory QA/QC procedures will be employed to ensure appropriate sample handling and
analysis and to aid in the review and validation of the analytical data. QA/QC procedures will be
conducted in accordance with the method protocols and will include regular equipment
maintenance, equipment calibrations, and adherence to specific sample custody and data
management procedures. Samples will be analyzed in conjunction with appropriate blanks,
laboratory duplicates, continuing calibration standards, surrogate standards, and matrix spiking
standards in accordance with approved methodologies to monitor both instrument and analyst
performance. Laboratory reporting limits for each analyte will be at or below appropriate
screening criteria, where possible. Additionally, H&H will request that the laboratory include
estimated concentrations for compounds that are detected at levels above the laboratory method
detection limit, but below the laboratory reporting limit (J flags).
The laboratory analytical data report and QA package for each group of samples submitted to
and analyzed by the subcontracted laboratory will be provided in an appendix to the final report.
Laboratory QA data consistent with Level II documentation will be provided for this project.

22076-18-060)_20190314.doc
A copy of the completed chain-of-custody record and shipping receipt will be appended to the
corresponding laboratory analytical report included with the final report.
2.6 Investigation Derived Waste
Investigation derived waste (IDW) generated during the proposed assessment activities will be
managed in general accordance with DEQ IHSB Guidelines. IDW generated during the
assessment activities will be thin spread on-Site. However, if significant impacts are suspected
(i.e., elevated PID readings, free-product, etc.) soil cuttings and groundwater will be
containerized in 55-gallon drums and staged on-Site pending analytical results of a composite
IDW sample. Based on laboratory analytical results of IDW samples, the drums will be
transported off-Site to a suitable facility for disposal.
2.7 Reporting
Following completion of the assessment activities and receipt of the analytical data, H&H will
document our findings in a Brownfields assessment report. The report will include a description
of the sampling activities, a figure depicting sample locations, soil boring logs, temporary
monitoring well and exterior soil gas monitoring point construction details, laboratory analytical
data, a discussion of the data in comparison to regulatory screening levels, and conclusions and
recommendations concerning our activities.
