RE: Cenco Inc. Site, 609 Melynda Road, Charlotte, NC;
Brownfields Project # 18050-14-060
Dear Sarah:
Van Buren Law represents Melynda Road Realty, LLC ("MRR"), the
Prospective Developer. This letter will follow up on our discussion last week
regarding the following issues:
1. Existing Building. The existing building (which was damaged by
fire) is going to be repaired. After its repair, MRR plans to use the entirety of the
existing building for the purposes described in the original application: Other
Commercial (office and commercial operations, truck and storage container
maintenance and repair, intermodal and transportation services), Light
Industrial, Heavy Industrial, Warehousing and Distribution. The types of
maintenance and repair that will be performed at the site has been fully described
in prior letters (tire changes, repairs to chassis, etc.). MRR wants to be able to use
the entire area of the existing building for these purposes, even if portions of the
existing building were only used for storage in the past.
2. New Steel Building. MRR needs a place for its employees to work
while the existing building is being repaired. MRR proposes to install a 2,700
square foot steel building (60' long x 45' wide) in the area shown on the attached
map. The building will be fully enclosed, with one door and three bay doors. The
building will sit on a concrete slab with two footers (2-3 feet deep) running along
the outside edges of the slab. This building can be ordered and assembled in
approximately nine weeks, after appropriate building permits are obtained.

3. Amendment to EMP. John Reuscher of Hart and Hickman proposes
to amend the EMP to include the following additional actions to facilitate
construction of the new steel building:
a) Two grab soil samples will be collected from the soils that will be
disturbed in each of the footers for analysis of volatile organic
compounds (VOCs) by EPA SW-846 Method 8260B. In addition, one
composite soil sample will be collected for analysis of semi -volatile
organic compounds (SVOCs) by EPA SW-846 Method 8270D,
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) metals by EPA
Method 6010D and 7471A (mercury only), and polychlorinated
biphenyls (PCBs) by EPA SW-846 Method 8082A. A composite soil
sample will also be collected for possible analysis of PCB congeners
by EPA Method 1668A based on the results of the Method 8082A
analysis. The soil samples will be collected at depths of
approximately 3 feet below ground surface ("ft bgs").
b) One soil vapor sample will be collected at an approximate depth
of 20 ft bgs prior to construction of the building in the center of the
proposed building footprint. This soil vapor sample would be
analyzed for VOCs by Method TO-15.
c) All soils excavated to construct the building footers will be spread
under the slab for the new building.
We would appreciate any feedback has on these planned actions.
Very truly yours,
Carol Jones Van Buren
