Information regarding the proposed brownfields property: Proposed project name Eagle Island acreage 31 County Brunswick street address(es) Battleship Road NE city Leland zip 28451 tax ID(s) or PIN(s) 0390000901, 03900008, and 03900011. See Attachment 1 and Attachment 2. past use(s) As part of an October 2016 Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (Included as Attachment 3), Geosyntec Consultants observed several boat docks and slips, abanonded ASTs, and deteriorated 55 gallon drums on the site. Throughout the 1900's, buildings were observed in site photographs but occupancy and status is unknown. Historical land use of Eagle Island, including adjacent property, included agriculture, naval commerice, lumber production, turpentine distilling, fertilizer sales/production, and tar and resin storage in the 1800s and 1900s. Furthermore, a lamp black factory was reportedly built on the site in the mid to late 1800's. current use(s) Vacant/unoccupied with remnant building/structures and equipment cause(s)/source(s) of contamination: known See above regarding past use and chemical storage containers suspected Petroleum products, volatiles, PAHs, metals, PCBs. The January 2017 Phase I ESA completed by Geosyntec Consultants identified 4 RECs associated with the site. B. Regulatory Agency Involvement: List the site names and all identifying numbers (ID No.) previously or currently assigned by any federal, state or local environmental regulatory agencies for the property. The ID No's may include CERCLIS numbers, RCRA generator numbers for past and present operations, UST database, Division of Water Quality's incident management database, and/or Inactive Hazardous Sites Branch inventory numbers. (In many instances, the PD will need to actively seek out this information by reading X environmental site assessment reports, reviewing government files, contacting government officials, and through the use of government databases, many of which may be available over the internet.) Agency Name/ID No: Agency Name/ID No: Agency Name/ID No: Agency Name/ID No: Agency Name/ID No: Agency Name/ID No: C. In what way(s) is the property is abandoned, idled, or underused? The site is currently unoccupied and delapidated buildings/structures are present throughout the site. D. In what way(s) is the actual or possible contamination at the property a hindrance to development or redevelopment of the property (attach anv supporting documentation such as letters from lending institutions)? There is concern about existing impacts to groundwater and soil. To facilitate use of the property, mitigation measures may be required. Liabilitiy protections will make the property more desireable to interested buyers and lessees. E. In what way(s) is the redevelopment of the property difficult or impossible without a brownfields agreement (attach any supporting documentation such as letters form lending institutions)? Underlying impacts to groundwater and the residual soil impacts associated with the property leave potential buyers and future tenants trepidatious. A Brownfields Agreement would provide interested buyers protection from the associated environmental liability. F. What are the planned use(s) of the redeveloped brownfields property to which the PD will commit? Be as specific as specific as possible. The site will be developed for mixed residential/commercial use. This is anticipated to consist of single family lots, condominiums, apartments, office space, restaurants, and/or other commercial retail stores. G.

Estimated capital investment in redevelopment project: $5M 10 List and describe the public benefits that will result from the property's redevelopment. Be as specific as possible. (Examples of public benefits for brownfields projects include job creation, tax base increases, revitalization of blighted areas, preserved green space, preserved historic places, improving disadvantaged neighborhood quality -of -life related retail shopping opportunities, affordable housing, environmental cleanup activities or set asides that have community or environmental benefits. In gauging public benefit, NCBP places great value upon letters of support from community groups and local government that describe anticipated improvements in quality of life for neighboring communities that the project will bring about. The inclusion of such support letters with this application is recommended and encouraged.) The site will be used for residential and commerical purposes, creating jobs during construciton and post construction , revitalizing the blighted area and creating surrounding greenspace, walking paths and nature trails. Environmental remediation has already been performed to remove impacted surface soils and facilitate redevelopment. Increase tax base and return to beneficial use of signifant property. An extensive archeological study was funded and performed as part of the PD efforts to identify and preserve historic items of note. Special Note: Please describe all environment -friendly technologies and designs PD plans to utilize in its redevelopment strategy. For example, environment friendly redevelopment plans could include: Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Certification, green building materials; green landscaping techniques such as using drought resistant plants; energy efficient designs, materials, appliances, machinery, etc.; renewable sources of energy, and/or recycling/reuse of old building materials such as brick or wood.

Property Address(es): Battleship Road NE, Eagle Island, Leland, NC b. Property Seller: Vulcan Materials, Inc. c. Property Buyer: Burgess Group Consolidated, LCC d. Brief Property Usage History: As part of an January 2017 Phase I ESA (Phase I Executive Summary included as Attachment 3), Geosyntec Consultants observed several boat docks and slips, abanonded ASTs, and deteriorated 55 gallon drums on the site. Attachment 4 includes pictures of these observed site features. Throughout the 1900's, buildings were observed in site photographs but occupancy and status is unknown. Historical land use of Eagle Island, including adjacent property, included agriculture, naval commerice, lumber production, turpentine distilling, fertilizer sales/production, and tar and resin storage in the 1800s and 1900s. Furthermore, a lamp black factory was reportedly built on the site in the mid to late 1800's. e. The planned reuse will potentially involve the following use classification(s) (check all that apply): ❑ School/childcare/senior care ® Residential ® Commercial, retail (specify) ❑ Other commercial (specify) ® Office ® Light industrial ❑ Heavy industrial ® Recreational ® Open space ❑ Other (specify) II.

Protective Measures I am prepared to take steps necessary to make the property suitable for its planned uses while fully protecting public health and the environment. I propose that NCBP consider a brownfields agreement that will make the property suitable for the planned use(s) through the following mechanism(s) (check all that apply): ❑ Contaminant remediation to risk -based levels. ❑ Engineered Controls (e.g., low permeability caps, vapor mitigation systems, etc) ® Land use restrictions that run with the land that will restrict or prohibit uses that are unacceptable from a risk assessment/management perspective. (Important Note: In any 16 final brownfields agreement generated by the NCBP, land use restrictions will ultimately come with the continuing obligation to submit an annual certification that the Land Use Restrictions are being complied with and remain recorded at the applicable register of deeds office.) IV. Fees In connection with a brownfields agreement, the Act requires that the developer pay fees to offset the cost to the Department of Environmental Quality and the Department of Justice. In satisfaction of the Act, the following fees apply to a brownfields agreement that is developed for this project under the standard program, subject to negotiation of the brownfields agreement: a. A $2,000 initial fee will be due from the applicant PD when both of the following occur: 1) NCBP receives this application, the affidavit and proposed brownfields agreement, AND 2) NCBP notifies the applicant in writing that the applicant PD and the project are eligible for participation in the NCBP and continued negotiation of a brownfields agreement. b. A second fee of $6,000 will be due from the PD prior to execution of the brownfields agreement. Should the prospective developer choose to negotiate changes to the agreement that necessitate evaluation by the Department of Justice, additional fees shall apply. c. Any addendum/modifications to the BFA or NBP after they are in effect will result in an additional fee of at least $1,000. d. In the unexpected event that the environmental conditions at the property are unusually complex, such that NCBP's costs will clearly exceed the above amounts, NCBP and PD will negotiate additional fees. e. Additional fees are charged for the Ready for Reuse and Redevelopment Now programs. Please check this box and initial in space provided to indicate your acknowledgement of the standard brownfields fee structure. Please check this box and initial in space provided to indicate your interest in the Ready or Reuse or the Redevelopment Now programs, and your acknowledgement of the alternate fee structure as outlined in the Ready for Reuse or the Redevelopment Now Fee Consent Document (under separate cover).
