Lawson Street, Durham, Durham County, NC Brownfields Project ID: 22034-18-32 Terracon Project No. 70197104 Dear Mr. Johnson: P (919) 873-2211 F (919) 873-9555 Terracon.com On behalf of Durham Technical Community College (DTCC), Terracon Consultants, Inc. (Terracon) is pleased to submit these monitoring results for the Vapor Intrusion Mitigation System (VIMS) located at the above -referenced site. Per the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ) Vapor Intrusion Guidance, Terracon checks the vacuum readings from the active VIMS approximately every month and reports the results to the North Carolina Brownfields Program on a quarterly basis. The following table summarizes vacuum readings at the monitoring points located in the building from July 2021 to October 2022: Point ID VP-01 VP-02 VP-03 VP-04 VP-05 VP-06 7/26/2021 -1.090 -1.077 -1.073 -1.081 -1.057 -1.064 8/31/2021 -1.214 -1.215 -1.210 -1.221 -1.223 -1.232 9/28/2021 -0.639 -0.626 -0.640 -0.635 -0.645 -0.632 10/26/2021 -0.593 -0.577 -0.587 -0.589 -0.594 -0.582 11/29/2021 -0.445 -0.417 -0.440 -0.441 -0.453 -0.431 12/30/2021 -0.450 -0.419 -0.450 -0.446 -0.444 -0.440 1 /27/2022 -0.503 -0.478 -0.498 -0.500 -0.505 -0.485 2/25/2022 -0.510 -0.491 -0.510 -0.509 -0.513 -0.501 3/21/2022 -0.668 -0.650 -0.663 -0.662 -0.672 -0.651 4/26/2022 -0.535 -0.522 -0.540 -0.531 -0.543 -0.526 5/31/2022 -0.848 -0.836 -0.854 -0.842 -0.859 -0.848 7/6/2022 -0.530 -0.500 -0.525 -0.523 -0.529 -0.513 10/31 /2022 -0.395 -0.347 -0.391 -0.397 -0.397 -0.386 Note: Units are in kilopascals Facilities I Environmental I Geotechnical I Materials 1 VIMS Monitoring Report I Revision 1.0 Fairey Finishing Plant Brownfields Project I Durham, North Carolina November 11, 2022 1 Terracon Project No. 70197104 r Terracon The system was activated in February 2021 and the building has been occupied since Fall 2021. Vacuum readings from February 2021 to June 2021 are summarized in the VIMS Monthly Monitoring Report dated July 13, 2021 (Terracon, 2021). The locations of the vapor monitoring points and vent risers are shown in Exhibit 1. In general, the vacuum measurements appear to be stabilizing over time, although seasonal variations were observed. Decreases in pressure may also be due to increased permeability of the subsurface due to continued drying of the subgrade and/or potential blockages of the VIMS roof vent. During the next pressure monitoring event, Terracon or DTCC maintenance staff will check the VIMS roof vents for blockages. In general, vacuum measurements at each of the vapor monitoring points exceeded a pressure differential of 4 pascals, and thus the VIMS is considered sufficiently depressurized per the NCDEQ Vapor Intrusion Guidance (NCDEQ, 2018).
