Minimum Requirements Checklist
Site Assessment Work Plans and Reports
NCDEQ Brownfields Redevelopment Section– March 2023
Instructional Page
All references to Prospective Developers include follow-on owners who may be conducting
work in accordance with the Brownfields Property Management Branch.
To increase predictability and most efficiently assess Brownfields Properties and the redevelopment
timing requirements of Prospective Developers or follow-on owners, the Brownfields
Redevelopment Section has standardized the format for Site Assessments. This format has been
generated in the form of a checklist to allow for ease in submission by the prospective developer’s
consultant and for the Brownfields Redevelopment Section’s completeness review. This checklist
outlines the minimum requirements and submittal format under the Brownfields Redevelopment
Section for Assessment Requirements and Reporting. All Assessment Work Plans and Report
submissions to the Brownfields Redevelopment Section must include this completed checklist in the
outlined format.
These requirements allow DEQ to reduce review time for the Assessment Work Plan and Report
and increase process predictability for prospective developers. This checklist will also provide
reliable data for risk-based decisions and further expedite the project timeline. Any divergence from
these requirements will lengthen the process of assessing risks on the site, may necessitate
reprioritization of a project manager’s queue towards projects that meet these requirements.
Therefore, delaying production of the brownfields agreement and/or environmental management
plan. Any alterations to the checklist on a site-specific basis must be reviewed and approved by the
Section prior to implementation. However, in order to respect the schedule of all projects in house
and keep the Section’s entire project pipeline moving, we strongly recommend against seeking
changes to the checklist.
Based on a review of environmental and risk data from our project inventory, please note
there are some new points of emphasis that are included herein:
1. For ALL residential reuses; sub-slab vapor assessment (full list EPA TO-15) is required,
regardless if existing structures will be removed. If no structures or slabs exist on the
Brownfields Property, exterior soil gas assessment is required within all proposed structure
footprints.
2. ALL properties require groundwater data (VOCs, SVOCs and RCRA Metals) from a
minimum of three sample locations, depth to groundwater and a resulting potentiometric
map.
3. Soil shall be assessed based on areas of concern and redevelopment plans and across the
depth interval of the cut/grading.

Brownfields Assessment Work Plan
Piedmont Plating & Anodizing Company
Charlotte, North Carolina
Brownfields Project No. 26061-22-060
H&H Job No. H&A-002
1.0 Introduction
Hart & Hickman, PC (H&H) has prepared this Brownfields Assessment Work Plan (Work Plan)
for the Piedmont Plating & Anodizing Company Brownfields property (Brownfields Project No.
26061-22-060) located at 2401 Distribution Street and 2322, 2400, 2402, 2404, and 2406
Dunavant Street in Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina (Site). The Site consists of
four adjoining parcels (Mecklenburg County Parcel Identification Nos. [PIN] 12104204,
12104244, 12104216, and 12104215) that collectively total approximately 2.6 acres of land
located in a rapidly densifying area of the South End neighborhood approximately 2.5 miles
southwest of uptown Charlotte. A Site location map is provided as Figure 1, and the Site and
surrounding area are shown in Figure 2.
The Site is developed with one approximate 25,800 square foot (sq ft) warehouse building
constructed in 1961 (2401 Distribution Street), one approximate 18,500 sq ft multi-tenant
warehouse building constructed in 1961 (2322 Dunavant Street), one approximately 3,600 sq ft
warehouse building constructed in 1961 (2400 Dunavant Street), and one approximately 11,400
sq ft multi-tenant warehouse building constructed in 1961 (2402/2406 Dunavant Street).
Remaining portions of the Site are improved with asphalt-paved access drives, parking areas, and
landscaping. The Site buildings are occupied as follows:
The 2401 Distribution Street Site building is currently vacant.
The 2322 Dunavant Street Site building is currently occupied by The Dunavant
Restaurant, Barton Malow Construction, and a vacant tenant space.
The 2400 Dunavant Street Site building is currently vacant, and the adjoining 2402-2406

Dunavant Street Site building consists of a vacant tenant space (2402 Dunavant Street)
and SL Laser (a laser equipment supplier; 2406 Dunavant Street).
Proposed redevelopment of the Brownfields property includes razing the existing Site buildings
for construction of multi-story high density residential apartment building over a podium-style
parking deck with limited retail and amenities spaces at ground level. No residential units are
currently planned for ground level components of the proposed apartment building.
1.1 Background Information
As early as the 1930s, the Site consisted of undeveloped vegetated land. The Site was cleared
and graded in the 1950s, but remained undeveloped vacant land until the current warehouse
buildings were constructed in the early 1960s. The Site buildings were historically occupied as
follows:
The 2401 Distribution Street Site building was occupied by Colora Knits Inc. (hosiery
manufacturers) and Gold Seal Manufacturing Company Inc. in the early 1960s and
Mielco Industries (auto parts manufacturing) in the mid-1980s until the early 1990s. The
2401 Distribution Street Site building was then occupied by various distribution, retail,
and commercial office tenants from the 1990s until the late 2010s.
The 2322 Dunavant Street Site building was occupied by Piedmont Plating & Anodizing
Company from the early 1960s until the early to mid-1970s, when Southern Aluminum
Finishing Company acquired the property and continued plating and anodizing operations
until 2014. The warehouse building was renovated for commercial uses and has been
operated as a restaurant since 2018.
The 2400 and 2402/2406 Dunavant Street Site building was occupied by a dairy
equipment manufacturer in 1961 until the 1990s, and a lithographic printer from 1983
until 2016. The Site buildings have since been renovated for commercial uses and have
3

- brownfields assessment work plan r1_piedmont plating.doc
been occupied by a retail home furnishings business and a laser equipment supplier since
2017/2018.
Historical operations at the Site have consisted of hosiery manufacturing, auto parts
manufacturing, metal plating and anodizing, equipment manufacturing, and lithographic printing.
In more recent years, the Site buildings have been occupied by various retail and commercial
tenants. Historical operations are shown in Figure 3.
1.2 Previous Assessment Activities
H&H reviewed several reports prepared by others to obtain additional information associated
with previous environmental assessments completed for each Site parcel. A brief summary of
the previous environmental reports is provided below, and copies of historical data tables and
sample location maps are included in Appendix A.
2401 Distribution Street
Partner Engineering North Carolina, PLLC (Partner) conducted a Phase I ESA for the 2401
Distribution Street Site parcel in April 2021. According to information provided in the report,
the Site consisted of one parcel of land which was developed with one approximately 25,800 sq
ft commercial and industrial building. At the time of the report, the Site was occupied by Parker
Medical Associates for the manufacture of athletic protective guards and other resin/fiberglass-
based products, Dance Style Studios for custom dancewear design, and Friendship Trays for
food preparation and distribution. Historically, the Site building was occupied Colora Knits Inc.
for hosiery manufacturing and Gold Seal Manufacturing Company Inc., Boise Cascade Office
Supply Overflow, Mielco Industries Auto Parts Manufacturing (1984-1991), and Parker Medical
Products and a commercial kitchen (1991-2020s).
Results of groundwater assessments completed at the north-northeast adjacent Crayton Printing
Brownfields property identified tetrachloroethylene (PCE), trichloroethylene (TCE), and vinyl
chloride at concentrations above the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality
(DEQ) 2L Groundwater Quality Standards (2L Standards) in the samples collected in close

proximity and topographically upgradient of the 2401 Distribution Street Site parcel. Results of
the Phase I ESA identified the potential for impact to the Site from historical on-Site operations
and from known impacts in groundwater identified on the north-northeast adjacent Crayton
Printing Brownfields property to be environmental concerns in connection with the Site.
Following the completion of the Phase I ESA for 2401 Distribution Street, Partner completed a
Phase II Subsurface Investigation in May 2021 which the collection of one groundwater sample
and three exterior near slab soil gas samples for laboratory analysis. Each sample was collected
adjacent to the northern and topographically upgradient side of the 2401 Distribution Street Site
building. The May 2021 Phase II sample locations are shown in Figure 3.
Soil sample laboratory analytical results indicated that TCE (up to 3.4 micrograms per liter
[µg/L]) at concentrations slightly above the DEQ 2L Standard of 3.0 µg/L and the DEQ
Residential Vapor Intrusion Groundwater Screening Level (GWSL) of 1.0 µg/L. In addition,
low levels of PCE (up to 6.2 micrograms per cubic meter [µg/m3]), TCE (3.6 µg/m3), and vinyl
chloride (0.59 µg/m3) were detected in soil gas at concentrations above the laboratory method
detection limits, but below their respective DEQ Residential and Non-Residential Vapor
Intrusion Sub-slab and Exterior Soil Gas Screening Levels (SGSLs).
2322 Dunavant Street
In November 2021, Partner conducted a Phase I ESA for the 2322 Dunavant Street Site parcels
(Parcels 12104216 and 12104244). According to information provided in the report, the Site was
developed with one approximately 18,505 sq ft commercial retail/offices building. At the time
of the report, the Site was occupied by Barton Marlow for office space, The Dunavant
(restaurant), and a vacant tenant space. Historically, the Site was occupied by Piedmont Plating
& Anodizing Company from 1961 until 1973, when the Southern Aluminum Finishing Company
reportedly acquired the Site for similar operations until 2014.
According to information provided in the Partner Phase I ESA report, operations at the Site
consisted of anodizing aluminum, which is generally described as an electrochemical oxidation
process that consists of immersing metal into multiple chemical baths (primarily sulfuric acid) to
5
s:\aaa-master projects\hoffman & associates\h&a-002 2401 distribution st\brownfields assessment\work plan\final to deq\rev 1\26061
- brownfields assessment work plan r1_piedmont plating.doc
convert the metal surface into a decorative, durable, and corrosive-resistance product. Limited
information was available pertaining to chemical use and hazardous waste generation, storage,
and handling procedures.
Partner also reviewed a prior Phase I ESA prepared by ERM and dated October 2007. At the
time of the ERM report, the 2322 Dunavant Street Site building was occupied by the Southern
Aluminum Finishing facility. During the Site reconnaissance, the Site contact stated that plating
process wastewater generated during the anodizing processes is treated on-Site prior to
discharging to the municipal sanitary sewer system. During the pretreatment process, a caustic
solution was added to neutralize the wastewater pH levels, and a flocculating agent was added to
promote solids to settle within wastewater clarifying tanks. The wastewater would then cycle
through three 500-gallon process tanks prior to being discharged. Sludge collected from the
clarifier was pumped into a filter press and dried prior to disposal into an on-Site dumpster.
ERM also identified numerous aboveground storage tanks (ASTs) at the facility which contained
the wastewater pretreatment system, clarifier, backup tank for the wastewater pretreatment
system, hydrochloric acid, and electrolytic coloring solutions. Four to five dip tanks associated
with the anodizing process were also identified within the Site building. ERM did not identify
other ASTs, USTs, or other items of environmental concern at the Site. Based on this
information, ERM did not recommend additional assessment activities. However, results of the
Partner Phase I ESA identified on-Site historical aluminum plating and anodizing Site operations
as an environmental concern in connection with the 2322 Dunavant Street Site parcels. Partner
also identified the known chlorinated solvent impacts in groundwater identified at the adjacent
Crayton Brownfields Property (discussed above) as an environmental concern.
Following the completion of the Phase I ESA for 2322 Dunavant Street, Partner completed a
Phase II Subsurface Investigation in November 2021 which included the collection of three soil
samples and two exterior soil gas samples for laboratory analysis. Partner attempted to install
temporary groundwater monitoring wells for the collection of groundwater samples, but drilling
refusal was encountered prior to reaching the water table and no groundwater samples were
collected. The November 2021 Phase II sample locations are shown in Figure 3.
6
s:\aaa-master projects\hoffman & associates\h&a-002 2401 distribution st\brownfields assessment\work plan\final to deq\rev 1\26061
- brownfields assessment work plan r1_piedmont plating.doc
Results of the soil sampling activities did not identify compounds at concentrations above the
laboratory method detection limits. Results of the exterior soil gas sampling activities indicated
the presence of 1,3-butadiene (24.8 µg/m3) and benzene (22.8 µg/m3) at concentrations above
their respective DEQ Residential Vapor Intrusion SGSLs, but below the DEQ Non-Residential
Vapor Intrusion SGSLs.
2400 Dunavant Street
In April 2022, Partner conducted a Phase I ESA for the 2400 Dunavant Street Site parcel.
According to information provided in the report, the Site consisted of one parcel of land which
was developed with one approximately 11,400 sq ft warehouse building and one 3,600 sq ft
multi-tenant warehouse building. At the time of the report, the Site was occupied by Mrs.
Howard Fine Furnishings and Interiors (home goods storage), SL-Laser Systems (laser
equipment calibration), and vacant tenant space. Historically, the Site was occupied by a dairy
equipment manufacturer in the 1960s, an outwear manufacturer (knitting) in the early 1970s, a
lithographic printer from at least 1983 until 2016, and other various office and warehouse
occupants. Results of the Phase I ESA identified the potential for impacts from an
undocumented release associated with historical Site operations as an environmental concern in
connection with the Site.
Following the completion of the Phase I ESA for 2400 Dunavant Street, Partner completed a
Phase II Subsurface Investigation in May 2022 which included the collection of three soil
samples and two sub-slab soil gas samples for laboratory analysis. The two sub-slab soil gas
samples were collected within the former lithographic printer tenant space. Partner attempted to
install temporary groundwater monitoring wells for the collection of groundwater samples, but
drilling refusal was encountered prior to reaching the water table and no groundwater samples
were collected. The May 2022 Phase II sample locations are shown in Figure 3.
Soil sample results did not identify compounds at concentrations above the DEQ PSRGs or
background levels in the case of metals. Results of sub-slab soil gas sampling completed within
the tenant space for the former printing operations identified benzene (up to 21.8 µg/m3) and
1,1,2,2-trichloroethane (4.24 µg/m3) at concentrations above their respective DEQ Residential

Vapor Intrusion SGSLs but below the DEQ Non-Residential Vapor Intrusion SGSLs in the sub-
slab soil gas samples collected at the Site.
2023 Phase I ESA
In March 2023, H&H completed a Phase I ESA for the Site. Results of the Phase I ESA
identified the following environmental concerns:
The 2401 Distribution Street Site building was historically occupied by the Colora Knits
Inc. (hosiery manufacturers) and Gold Seal Manufacturing as early as the 1960s and
Mielco Industries (auto parts manufacturing) from the mid-1980s until the early 1990s.
Operations such as hosiery and auto parts manufacturing may have included use of dyes,
solvents, an/or petroleum products.
The 2322 Dunavant Street Site building was occupied by Piedmont Plating & Anodizing
Company from the early 1960s until the early to mid-1970s, when the Southern
Aluminum Finishing Company acquired the Site building and continued similar metal
plating and anodizing operations. Metal plating and anodizing operations may have
included the use of various chemicals and solvents.
The 2400 Dunavant Street Site building was occupied by a dairy equipment manufacturer
in the 1960s, an outwear manufacturer (knitting) in the early 1970s, a lithographic printer
from at least 1983 until 2016, and other various office and warehouse occupants.
Manufacturing operations such as dairy equipment and knitting as well as printing
operations commonly use dyes, solvents, and/or petroleum products.
Limited information is available pertaining to the use of potentially hazardous materials
or generation, storage, and management practices associated with hazardous waste for the
historical on-Site manufacturing, metal plating and anodizing, and printing operations.
As noted above, it is common for former Site operations to use various petroleum
products, solvents, and other potentially hazardous materials that can persist in the
environment if released or spilled. The Site buildings have recently been renovated and
8
s:\aaa-master projects\hoffman & associates\h&a-002 2401 distribution st\brownfields assessment\work plan\final to deq\rev 1\26061
- brownfields assessment work plan r1_piedmont plating.doc
there is no obvious evidence of environmentally sensitive systems remaining at the Site
(tanks, separators, drains, sumps, storage areas, etc.). However, based on the types and
duration of historical operations conducted within the Site buildings, the potential for
impact from undocumented releases represents an environmental concern that warrants
further evaluation.
As discussed above, Partner completed Limited Phase II Investigations for each Site
parcel in May 2021, November 2021, and May 2022. Phase II assessments completed at
the Site included the collection of soil, groundwater, and soil gas samples for laboratory
analysis to evaluate subsurface conditions for potential impacts associated with historical
on-Site and nearby off-Site uses. A low level of TCE (3.4 µg/L) was detected in a
groundwater sample collected in the northern and upgradient portion of the Site at a
concentration exceeding the 2L Standard (and DEQ Residential Vapor Intrusion GWSL).
H&H considers the presence of TCE in groundwater at concentrations above the 2L
Standard to be an environmental concern in connection with the Site.
The Site is located in a historically industrial and commercial use area of Charlotte.
Operations on nearby properties have included dry cleaning facilities, photofinishing, a
printing facility, and other manufacturing and industrial uses. In addition, several release
incidents are listed in the environmental databases for multiple nearby off-Site properties.
Results of groundwater assessment activities previously completed for the adjacent
property to the north have identified PCE, TCE, and vinyl chloride at concentrations
above the 2L Standards in monitoring wells located approximately 60 to 330 ft north-
northeast and cross-gradient to upgradient to the subject Site. The potential for impact to
the Site from documented and undocumented releases associated with historical
operations on nearby off-Site properties was identified as an environmental concern in
connection with the Site.
To address environmental concerns associated with historical on-Site and off-Site operations, 6
Summit Capital, LLC elected to enter the Site into the DEQ Brownfields Redevelopment Section
on August 29, 2022, and received a letter of eligibility on February 7, 2023. Hoffman &

Associates is under contract to acquire the Site from 6 Summit Capital, LLC and intends to
submit an updated Brownfields Property Application to be identified as the Prospective
Developer and complete the Brownfields agreement process. A kick-off/data gap meeting with
the DEQ Brownfields Redevelopment Section, 6 Summit Capital, LLC, Hoffman & Associates,
and H&H was held on April 12, 2023, and DEQ provided comments to the Brownfields
Assessment Work Plan (Work Plan) initially submitted for review on April 4, 2023. This Work
Plan has been revised to address DEQ comments.
Due to time constraints associated with the property transaction process and issuance of an
amended eligibility letter for the new applicant, H&H has prepared this Work Plan on behalf of
Hoffman & Associates to conduct Brownfields assessment activities at the Site to address data
gaps and further evaluate potential risks associated with the proposed residential development.
The purpose of the Brownfields assessment activities described herein is to further evaluate the
potential for impacts at the Site and assist with the management of Site media during proposed
redevelopment of the Site. The Brownfields assessment activities discussed in the following
sections focus on the collection of soil, groundwater, and soil gas samples for laboratory
analysis. In addition to the sampling activities, a receptor survey will be conducted to obtain
information associated with land use, potable water supply, and potential sensitive receptors in
the area surrounding the Site.
A summary of the proposed Brownfields assessment activities is provided in the following
sections.

2.0 Brownfields Assessment Activities
The Brownfields assessment activities will be conducted in general accordance with the DEQ
Inactive Hazardous Sites Branch (IHSB) Guidelines for Assessment and Cleanup of
Contaminated Sites (Guidelines) dated September 2022, the DEQ Division of Waste
Management (DWM) Vapor Intrusion Guidance (VI Guidance) dated September 2022, the most
recent versions of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region IV Laboratory
Services and Applies Science Division (LSASD) Field Branches Quality System and Technical
Procedures guidance, and the DEQ Brownfields Program Environmental Site Assessment Work
Plan Minimum Requirements Checklist dated March 2023.
Prior to conducting the proposed assessment 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 below ground surface (ft 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 activities, H&H will update the SIP on the Mecklenburg
County Well Information database with temporary monitoring well abandonment records
provided by a North Carolina licensed driller.
2.1 Receptor Survey
H&H will perform a receptor survey in accordance with DEQ Brownfields protocols. 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 Brownfields property boundary. In addition, H&H will review the online Mecklenburg

s:\aaa-master projects\hoffman & associates\h&a-002 2401 distribution st\brownfields assessment\work plan\final to deq\rev 1\26061
- brownfields assessment work plan r1_piedmont plating.doc
County Well Information System for potential water supply wells in the area and, if warranted,
contact utility companies for information concerning underground utilities in the immediate area
of the Site. The receptor survey will be completed using the most current version of the
Brownfields Property Receptor Survey template form. A copy of the Brownfields Property
Receptor Survey template form is provided in Appendix B.
2.2 Soil Sampling Activities
H&H will conduct soil sampling as part of the Brownfields assessment activities. The purpose
of the soil sampling is to evaluate the potential for impacts in areas of potential environmental
concern and to evaluate potential impacts in areas that may be disturbed during planned
redevelopment and grading activities.
Soil borings will be advanced adjacent to the former railroad spurs and loading dock areas
located in the central portion of the Site, near former ASTs associated with a historical metal
plating operations on the eastern portion of the Site, and within the 2322 Dunavant Street Site
building in the former metal plating process area and the former wastewater treatment system
area associated with the Piedmont Plating & Anodizing and Southern Aluminum Finishing
operations. To evaluate soil conditions in these areas, H&H will collect eleven (11) soil samples
for laboratory analysis from eleven (11) soil borings. Locations of the proposed soil borings are
shown in Figure 4, and a tabular summary of proposed sample depths, objectives, and laboratory
analyses is provided in Table 1.
H&H will team with a qualified drilling contractor to advance eleven soil borings (BF-SB-1
through BF-SB-11) at the Site utilizing a decontaminated stainless steel hand auger and a track-
mounted drill rig capable of direct push technology (DPT) drilling methods where accessible.
Continuous soil samples will be collected from the center of the hand auger bucket or acetate
lined macrocore sleeves at each boring. The soil samples will be logged for lithological
description and observed for obvious evidence of staining and unusual odors, and field screened
for the presence of volatile organic vapors using a calibrated photoionization detector (PID).
Soil samples for laboratory analysis will be collected as described below.
12
s:\aaa-master projects\hoffman & associates\h&a-002 2401 distribution st\brownfields assessment\work plan\final to deq\rev 1\26061
- brownfields assessment work plan r1_piedmont plating.doc
To evaluate background conditions in areas that appear to not be affected by historical
Site uses, two soil boring (BF-SB-1 and BF-SB-11) will be advanced along Distribution
Street and Dunavant Street to approximately 5 ft bgs. Soil samples for laboratory
analysis will be collected from the depth interval exhibiting the highest likelihood for
impact based on field screening results. If field screening results indicate that there is no
obvious evidence of impacts in a discrete depth interval, the soil samples will be
collected from a shallow depth interval (i.e., no greater than 7 ft bgs) to evaluate
background levels of compounds at the Site. The soil samples will be analyzed for
volatile organic compounds (VOCs) by EPA Method 8260, semi-VOCs (SVOCs) by
EPA Method 8270, Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) metals plus
hexavalent chromium, copper, aluminum, nickel, and zinc by EPA Methods
6020/7471/7199, and cyanide by EPA Method 4500.
One soil sample (BF-SB-2) will be advanced along Distribution Street to evaluate soil
conditions along the northern Site boundary. The soil boring will be advanced to
approximately 5 ft bgs and the sample will be collected from the depth interval exhibiting
the highest likelihood for impact based on field screening results. If field screening
results indicate that there is no obvious evidence of impacts in a discrete depth interval,
the soil sample will be collected from shallow soils (e.g., 0-2 ft bgs) to evaluate soil that
may be disturbed during future redevelopment activities. The soil sample will be
analyzed for VOCs by EPA Method 8260, SVOCs by EPA Method 8270, and RCRA
metals plus hexavalent chromium by EPA Methods 6020/7471/7199.
Four shallow soil borings (BF-SB-3 and BF-SB-6) will be advanced between former
loading docks and the former railroad spurs located in the central portion of the Site. The
borings will be advanced to approximately 5 feet (ft) below ground surface (bgs) and
samples will be collected from the depth interval exhibiting the highest likelihood for
impact based on field screening results. If field screening results indicate that there is no
obvious evidence of impacts in a discrete depth interval, the soil sample will be collected
from shallow soils (e.g., 0-2 ft bgs) to evaluate soil that may be disturbed during future
redevelopment activities. The soil sample will be analyzed for VOCs by EPA Method
13
s:\aaa-master projects\hoffman & associates\h&a-002 2401 distribution st\brownfields assessment\work plan\final to deq\rev 1\26061

8260, SVOCs by EPA Method 8270, and RCRA metals plus hexavalent chromium by
EPA Methods 6020/7471/7199.
Two soil borings (BF-SB-7 and BF-SB-8) will be advanced on the eastern corner of the
2322 Dunavant Street Site building, where former metal plating related ASTs were
staged. The borings will be advanced to approximately 8 ft bgs and samples will be
collected from the depth interval exhibiting the highest likelihood for impact based on
field screening results. If field screening results indicate that there is no obvious
evidence of impacts in a discrete depth interval, the soil sample will be collected from
shallow soils (e.g., 0-2 ft bgs) to evaluate soil that may be disturbed during future
redevelopment activities. The soil samples will be analyzed for VOCs by EPA Method
8260, SVOCs by EPA Method 8270, RCRA metals plus hexavalent chromium, copper,
aluminum, nickel, and zinc by EPA Methods 6020/7471/7199, and cyanide by EPA
Method 4500.
Two soil borings (BF-SB-9 and BF-SB-10) will be advanced within the 2322 Dunavant
Street Site building in the former plating and anodizing process area and in the area of the
former wastewater treatment system. The borings will be advanced to approximately 8 ft
bgs and samples will be collected from the depth interval exhibiting the highest
likelihood for impact based on field screening results. If field screening results indicate
that there is no obvious evidence of impacts in a discrete depth interval, the soil sample
will be collected from shallow soil to evaluate soil conditions directly below the building
slab. The soil samples will be analyzed for VOCs by EPA Method 8260, SVOCs by EPA
Method 8270, RCRA metals plus hexavalent chromium, copper, aluminum, nickel, and
zinc by EPA Methods 6020/7471/7199 and cyanide by EPA Method 4500 .
The soil samples selected for laboratory analysis will be placed in dedicated laboratory supplied
sample containers, labeled with the sample identification, date, and requested analysis, and
placed in a laboratory supplied cooler with ice. The samples will be delivered to a North
Carolina certified laboratory under standard chain of custody protocols for laboratory analysis.

- brownfields assessment work plan r1_piedmont plating.doc
Following sampling activities, the soil borings will either be permanently abandoned and the
surfaces repaired similar to pre-drilling conditions, or the boring will be converted into
temporary monitoring wells as described below. Additionally, the soil sample locations will be
estimated using a hand-held global positioning system (GPS) unit for exterior locations and
measured from known benchmarks (e.g., windows, walls, doors, etc.) for interior locations.
2.3 Groundwater Sampling Activities
H&H will contract a qualified drilling contractor to advance borings for installation of eight (8)
temporary groundwater monitoring wells at the Site. The purpose of the temporary groundwater
monitoring wells will be to evaluate current groundwater conditions in areas where previous
assessment activities have not been completed. The locations of the proposed temporary
monitoring wells are shown in Figure 4, and are described further below:
Two temporary monitoring wells (BF-TMW-1 and BF-TMW-2) will be installed in the
western and downgradient portion of the Site;
Three temporary monitoring wells (BF-TMW-3, BF-TMW-4, and BF-TMW-6) will be
installed in upgradient portions of the Site, along the northern Site boundary and
downgradient of historical off-Site operations;
One temporary monitoring well (BF-TMW-5) will be installed in the central portion of
the Site;
One temporary monitoring well (BF-TWM-7) will be installed in the eastern portion of
the Site, near the former metal plating wastewater AST staging area; and
One temporary monitoring well (BF-TMW-8) will be installed in the southern portion of
the Site.
The temporary groundwater monitoring well borings will be advanced with a track-mounted drill
rig capable of utilizing hollow-stem auger and/or air rotary drilling techniques. During drilling,
soil cuttings will be collected and logged for lithologic description and field screened for the
presence of obvious staining, unusual odors, and elevated volatile organic vapors using a
calibrated PID. Should obvious evidence of impacts be observed based on field screening
15
s:\aaa-master projects\hoffman & associates\h&a-002 2401 distribution st\brownfields assessment\work plan\final to deq\rev 1\26061
- brownfields assessment work plan r1_piedmont plating.doc
results, a soil sample will be collected for laboratory analysis using the methodologies described
in Section 2.2 above.
The temporary groundwater monitoring wells will be constructed of 1 or 2-inch diameter PVC
with a 10 to 15 ft section of pre-pack well screen set to bracket the water table and 1 or 2-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 an approximately 2 ft thick hydrated bentonite
seal above the sand filter pack.
Once the temporary monitoring wells are installed, the wells will be allowed to stabilize and
equilibrate to static conditions for approximately 24 hours following installation, and a
decontaminated electronic water level indicator will be used to measure the depth to the water
table relative to the ground surface and tops of well casings in each well. 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%). The ground surface
and top of well casings at each temporary monitoring well location will be surveyed by H&H
relative to a known elevation benchmark at the Site to calculate groundwater elevations and
estimate groundwater flow direction at the Site.
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 calibrated 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
16
s:\aaa-master projects\hoffman & associates\h&a-002 2401 distribution st\brownfields assessment\work plan\final to deq\rev 1\26061
- brownfields assessment work plan r1_piedmont plating.doc
directly into laboratory supplied sample containers using the “soda straw” method to minimize
the potential for volatile compound loss through the peristaltic 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. Groundwater samples BF-TMW-1 through BF-TMW-6 will be delivered to a
North Carolina certified laboratory under standard chain of custody protocols for analyses of
VOCs by EPA Method 8260, SVOCs by EPA Method 8270, and RCRA metals by EPA Method
6020/7470. Groundwater samples BF-TMW-7 and BF-TMW-8 will be delivered to a North
Carolina certified laboratory under standard chain of custody protocols for analyses of VOCs by
EPA Method 8260, SVOCs by EPA Method 8270, RCRA metals plus copper, aluminum, nickel,
and zinc by EPA Method 6020/7470, and cyanide by EPA Method 4500.
The groundwater sample locations will be estimated using a hand-held GPS unit. Following
sampling activities, the temporary monitoring wells will be permanently abandoned by a licensed
well driller and the surfaces will be repaired similar to pre-drilling conditions.
2.4 Soil Gas Sampling Activities
To evaluate the potential for structural vapor intrusion into the proposed buildings and to
establish baseline soil gas concentrations beneath the existing Site buildings, H&H will install
and sample eleven (11) temporary sub-slab soil gas sampling points. Note that the sub-slab soil
gas points may be adjusted due to access limitations and to minimize damage to the floor or floor
coverings. The proposed sub-slab soil gas sampling point locations are shown in Figure 4, and
the sampling activities are described below.
H&H proposes to install sub-slab soil gas sample points (BF-SSV-1 through BF-SSV-11) for the
collection of soil gas samples beneath the existing Site buildings. The sampling points will be
installed using a rotary hammer drill and 1½-inch diameter drill bit to advance a pilot hole into
the concrete slab to a depth of approximately 1¾ inches below the surface. A drill guide will
then be placed in the pilot hole, and a 5/8-inch diameter drill bit will be utilized to advance the
17
s:\aaa-master projects\hoffman & associates\h&a-002 2401 distribution st\brownfields assessment\work plan\final to deq\rev 1\26061
- brownfields assessment work plan r1_piedmont plating.doc
drill bit through the concrete slab and into the underlying soil. Following concrete borehole
advancement, loose concrete cuttings will be removed from each boring, and a Cox-Colvin
Vapor Pin™ (vapor pin) assembly (brass sampling point and silicone sleeve) will be seated in the
borehole using an installation/extraction tool and hammer to form an airtight seal. After
installation, the sub-slab soil gas points will be allowed to equilibrate for approximately 20
minutes before sampling activities begin.
The sub-slab soil gas samples will be collected utilizing laboratory supplied batch certified
Summa® canisters (1 or 3-liter canisters depending on laboratory availability) connected to an
air-flow regulator calibrated by the laboratory to collect the soil gas sample at a rate of
approximately 100 mL/min. Prior to collection of the soil gas samples, a “shut-in” test will be
conducted on the sampling train and helium leak checks will be conducted at each soil gas
sampling point. The purpose of the shut-in test and helium leak check is to ensure short
circuiting with ambient air does not occur during sampling. A description of the shut-in test and
helium leak testing procedures is provided below.
The shut-in test will be conducted by connecting the flow regulator with the vacuum gauge to the
Summa® canister and sealing the flow regulator with the laboratory provided brass cap. Once
the sampling train is “closed”, the sample valve on the Summa® canister will be opened and the
reading on the vacuum gauge will be recorded. The Summa® canister sample valve will then be
closed and the vacuum gauge will be observed to ensure no vacuum loss occurs. If the vacuum
reading remains the same, the shut-in test will be considered successful. If vacuum loss occurs,
the flow regulator and/or brass cap will be reseated, and the shut-in test will be repeated until the
vacuum reading remains stable.
Following the shut-in test, the Summa® canister will be connected to the sample point via
Teflon® sample tubing using a brass nut and ferrule assembly to create an airtight seal and the
leak check will be performed. The leak check will be performed by constructing a shroud over
the entire sampling train and flooding the shroud with helium gas. A calibrated helium gas
detector will be utilized to measure helium concentrations within the shroud. Once helium
concentrations stabilize within the shroud, the sample tubing will be purged of a minimum of
18
s:\aaa-master projects\hoffman & associates\h&a-002 2401 distribution st\brownfields assessment\work plan\final to deq\rev 1\26061
- brownfields assessment work plan r1_piedmont plating.doc
three sample train volumes outside of the shroud using a syringe and a three-way valve and a soil
gas sample will then be collected into a Tedlar® bag. The purged soil gas will then be analyzed
using the helium gas detector to ensure that helium concentrations in the soil gas point are less
than 10% of the helium concentrations measured within the shroud.
Following successful leak checks, the sample valves on the Summa® canisters will be opened
and the soil gas samples will be collected. Vacuum readings on the Summa® canisters will be
recorded prior to and following the sampling period to ensure adequate sample volume was
collected. A vacuum of approximately 5 inches of mercury or more will be maintained within
the canisters at the conclusion of the sampling event in accordance with DEQ DWM Vapor
Intrusion Guidance. Following sample collection, the Summa® canisters will be shipped to a
laboratory under standard chain-of-custody protocols for analysis of VOCs by EPA Method TO-
15. The laboratory will be requested to use reporting limits that are below DEQ Residential
Vapor Intrusion SGSLs.
After sampling is complete, the sample locations will be estimated by measuring from known
benchmarks within the buildings (e.g., doors, windows, etc.), and the sample locations will be
abandoned with surfaces repaired similar to pre-drilling conditions.
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 soil and groundwater sample will be collected and analyzed for the same
parameters as the parent samples per field day.
One trip blank will accompany the groundwater samples during the field activities as well
as during sample shipment and will be analyzed for VOCs by EPA Method 8260.
One duplicate sub-slab soil gas sample will be collected using a laboratory supplied “t-
fitting” which allows for two sub-slab soil gas samples to be collected from one sampling
19
s:\aaa-master projects\hoffman & associates\h&a-002 2401 distribution st\brownfields assessment\work plan\final to deq\rev 1\26061
- brownfields assessment work plan r1_piedmont plating.doc
point simultaneously. The duplicate soil gas sample will be submitted for analysis of
VOCs by EPA Method TO-15.
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.
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
Soil investigation derived waste (IDW) generated at the Site will be containerized and staged on-
Site. Analytical results of the assessment activities will be used to characterize the waste for
disposal. IDW generated during the proposed assessment activities will be managed in
accordance with 15A NCAC 02T.1503 and 15A NCAC 02H.0106.

3.0 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; a figure showing the
potentiometric surface and estimated groundwater flow direction, boring logs for the soil borings
and temporary well borings, temporary well construction logs; field forms and sampling logs;
laboratory analytical data; a discussion of the data in comparison to regulatory screening levels;
and conclusions and recommendations concerning our activities. H&H will also use the most
recent version of the DEQ risk calculator to further evaluate potential risks based on the data, if
warranted. The Brownfields Assessment Report will include the firm PE/PG license numbers
and individual PE/PG seal and signature.
