Charlotte, Mecklenburg County
Brownfields Project No. 11037-07-060 and 21041-17-060 Mr. Belk and Mr. Drakeford,
The North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) Brownfields Redevelopment
Section (BRS) received and reviewed a request to export an approximate 3,000 cubic yards of soil from the Double Oaks Brownfields Property at 1302 and 1340 Newland Rd to North End Square II Brownfields Property located at 813 Oaklawn Ave. This request was submitted on your behalf by Mr. Robert Foster of WSP USA Environmental & Infrastructure, Inc. (WSP) in his Soil Transfer
Request letter report dated December 20, 2022. DEQ Brownfields reviewed the analytical data and site maps provided in the correspondence. Based on a review of the DEQ Risk Calculator which incorporated data from both properties did not increase risk at the receiving North End Square II Brownfield Property. Therefore, DEQ BRS
approves up to 3,000 cubic yards of soil to be exported from the Double Oaks Brownfields Property on Newland Road. All soil export must be conducted under the DEQ Brownfields approved EMP. Per the Double
Oaks Newland Rd 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 addition,
in accordance with the approved EMPs, annual Redevelopment Summary Reports 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
each Property’s Redevelopment Summary Report.
