1.0 Introduction

On behalf of the Prospective Developer (PD), Lowell OZB, LLC, Hart & Hickman, PC (H&H)
is pleased to present this Brownfields Assessment Work Plan (Work Plan) to conduct
Brownfields assessment activities at the Pharr Yarns – Lowell Brownfields property located at
700 West 1st Street in Lowell, Gaston County, North Carolina (Site). A Site location map is
provided as Figure 1.

The Site is comprised of three parcels of primarily vacant land (Parcel Identification Numbers
306362, 306363, and 127737) that total approximately 17.46 acres. A Duke Energy overhead
electrical right-of-way crosses the western and northern portions of the Site. Birch Street crosses
the eastern portion of the Site, and W. 1st Street bisects the northern and southern portions of the
subject Site. A brick garage is located in the southeastern corner of the Site.

In January 2021, H&H completed Phase II Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) activities at
the Site to evaluate potential impacts associated with several former underground storage tanks
(USTs) and former textile mill operations, which included a machine shop, a coal trestle and
nearby chimney (presumably used to burn coal), and an electrical substation. A summary of key
soil and groundwater data are summarized as follows:

Soil
 Soil analytical data do not indicate the presence of diesel-range total petroleum
hydrocarbons (TPH-DRO) or gasoline-range TPH (TPH-GRO) at concentrations above
the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) UST Section Action
Levels in samples collected adjacent to former USTs. 
 Tetrachloroethene (PCE) was detected in samples SB-4 (11-13 ft) and SB-5 (3-5 ft) at
concentrations above the Protection of Groundwater Preliminary Soil Remediation Goal

lowell, nc esa/brownfields assessment/work plan/final to deq/bf assessment work plan - pharr yarns lowell (6-20-23).doc
(PSRG) but below the Residential and Industrial/Commercial PSRGs. Sample SB-4 (11-
13 ft) was collected adjacent to the former coal trestle/machine shop, and sample SB-5
(3-5 ft) was collected within the former machine shop.  
 Multiple polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were detected in samples SB-5 (3-5
ft) and SB-13 (1-3 ft), which were collected within the former machine shop and the
former carpentry shop, respectively. The detected benzo(a)anthracene concentration in
sample SB-5 (3-5 ft) exceeds the Protection of Groundwater PSRG. The detected
benzo(a)pyrene concentrations in samples SB-5 (3-5 ft) and SB-13 (1-3 ft) exceed the
Protection of Groundwater and Residential PSRGs. 
 No polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) were detected above the laboratory method
detection limits (MDLs) in sample SB-3 (1-3 ft), which was collected at the former
electrical substation.

Groundwater
 Groundwater analytical data indicate that PCE and trichloroethene (TCE) were detected in
temporary well sample TMW-2 at concentrations above the respective DEQ 2L
Groundwater Standards (2L Standards). Sample TMW-2 was collected downgradient of the
former machine shop.
 PCE was also detected in samples TMW-3, TMW-4, and TMW-6 at concentrations greater
than or equal to the 2L Standard. These samples were collected in the northeastern, eastern,
and southern portions of the Site, respectively. 

On March 19, 2021, a Brownfields Property Application was submitted for the Site. A Letter of
Eligibility was received from the DEQ Brownfields Program on August 5, 2021. On October 13,
2021, a kick-off meeting was held with the Brownfields Program Project Manager, Mr. Bill
Schmithorst, to discuss prior Site history, proposed redevelopment plans, previous sampling
data, and potential data gaps. Mr. Schmithorst requested that supplemental soil and groundwater
assessment be performed to satisfy the DEQ Brownfields Program’s analytical requirements,
additional groundwater assessment be performed to evaluate potential off-Site migration of PCE
and TCE, and that soil gas assessment be performed to evaluate the potential for vapor intrusion
into proposed Site buildings.

This work plan describes proposed assessment activities to address data gaps that were identified
during the kick-off meeting. The proposed scope of work for soil, soil gas, and groundwater
sampling, including quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC), management of investigation
derived waste (IDW), and reporting is provided below.

2.0 Scope of Work

As noted above, the purpose of the Brownfields assessment activities described herein is to
address the requirements of the DEQ Brownfields Program and data gaps that were identified in
the kick-off meeting. Proposed sample depths, objectives, and laboratory analyses are
summarized in Table 1. Proposed assessment methodologies are summarized in the sections
below.

The proposed Brownfields assessment activities will be performed in general accordance with
the DEQ Inactive Hazardous Sites Branch (IHSB) Guidelines for Assessment and Cleanup
(Guidelines) dated September 2022, the Division of Waste Management (DWM) Vapor
Intrusion Guidance dated March 2018, Brownfields Vapor Intrusion Assessment Work Plan &
Report Checklist (VI Checklist) dated July 2021, and the most recent versions of the U.S. EPA
Region IV Laboratory Services and Applied Science Division (LSASD) Field Branches Quality
System and Technical Procedures guidance.

Prior to conducting field activities, H&H will contact North Carolina 811 One-Call, the public
utility locator service, to mark subsurface utilities at the Site. H&H will also team with a private
utility locator to identify and mark locations of sub-grade utilities at the Site that may not be
marked by the public locator.

2.1 Receptor Survey

H&H will perform a Brownfields receptor survey in accordance with DEQ Brownfields Section
guidance. The receptor survey will include information about land use and zoning in the Site
area. In addition, H&H will 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 Site. In addition, H&H will review the Mecklenburg County Well
Information System to identify registered water supply wells in the area and, if warranted,
contact the 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 form.

2.2 Utility Locating and Land Clearing

Before conducting the 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 using electromagnetic and ground-penetrating radar (GPR) methods.
Additionally, soil boring locations will be hand cleared to approximately 5 feet (ft) below the
ground surface (bgs) prior to use of mechanical drilling equipment to further screen the boring
locations for the presence of subsurface utilities.

If needed for drill rig access to proposed sample locations, the utility locating contractor may
also perform limited land clearing activities.

2.3 Soil Assessment Activities

H&H proposes to advance soil borings to further evaluate potential impacts from historical on-
Site and off-Site operations in likely areas of soil disturbance during grading and construction
activities.

H&H proposes to advance 23 soil borings to approximately 5 ft bgs from seven composite soil
sample areas using a decontaminated stainless steel hand auger. The boring locations are
described below.

 Four (4) soil borings (CS-1A through CS-1D) will be advanced to approximately 5 ft bgs
within the footprint of Building A in the northern portion of the Site.
 Six (6) soil borings (CS-2A through CS-2C and CS-3A through CS-3C – three borings
within each of two composite sampling areas) will be advanced to approximately 5 ft bgs
within the footprint of Building B in the northern portion of the Site.
 Four (4) soil borings (CS-4A through CS-4D) will be advanced to approximately 5 ft bgs
within the footprint of Building C in the northern portion of the Site.
 Three (3) soil borings (CS-5A through CS-5C) will be advanced to approximately 5 ft
bgs within the footprint of Building A in the southern portion of the Site.

lowell, nc esa/brownfields assessment/work plan/final to deq/bf assessment work plan - pharr yarns lowell (6-20-23).doc
 Six (6) soil borings (CS-6A through CS-6C and CS-7A through CS-7C – three borings
within each of two composite sampling areas) will be advanced to approximately 5 ft bgs
within the footprint of Building B in the southern portion of the Site.

From each soil boring, continuous soil samples will be collected from the borings and logged for
lithological description and field screened for indication of potential impacts by observation for
staining, unusual odors, and the presence of volatile organic vapors using a calibrated
photoionization detector (PID). The soil sample aliquots from each composite soil sample area
will be combined in the field to create representative composite soil samples for the 0-2 ft depth
interval. H&H will collect one soil sample from each of the composite soil sample areas and
depth intervals for laboratory analysis of semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) by EPA
Method 8270 and Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) metals by EPA Methods
6020/7471 plus hexavalent chromium by EPA Method 7199. H&H will also collect a grab soil
sample from an undisturbed portion of the soil sample aliquot within each composite soil sample
area and depth that exhibits the greatest evidence of impact for analysis of volatile organic
compounds (VOCs) by EPA Method 8260.

To evaluate naturally occurring metals in soil at the Site, three background soil borings (BG-1
through BG-3) will be advanced in the undeveloped area in the western portion of the Site. A
soil sample will be collected from 0-2 ft bgs from each background boring for laboratory
analysis of RCRA metals by EPA Methods 6020/7471 and hexavalent chromium by EPA
Method 7199.

Soil samples will be placed in laboratory-supplied sample containers, labeled with the sample
identification, date, and requested analyses, and placed in a laboratory-supplied cooler with ice.
The soil samples will then be submitted to a North Carolina-certified laboratory under standard
chain of custody protocols for the analyses as described above.

Following sampling activities at each location, the soil borings will be properly abandoned with
hydrated bentonite, and the ground surface will be restored to approximate pre-drilling
conditions. Additionally, the soil sample locations will be recorded using a sub-meter GPS unit.

2.4 Groundwater Assessment Activities

H&H proposes to subcontract with a North Carolina-licensed drilling contractor to advance
borings for the installation of six (6) temporary monitoring wells using a direct-push technology
(DPT) and hollow stem auger methods. The approximate locations of the proposed temporary
monitoring wells are described below.

 Two temporary wells (TMW-7 and TMW-8) will be installed in the northern
(downgradient) portion of the Site to assess the potential for off-Site migration of
groundwater contaminants.
 One temporary well (TMW-9) will be installed in the footprint of proposed Building A in
the northern portion of the Site.
 One temporary well (TMW-10) will be installed in the footprint of proposed Building B
in the northern portion of the Site.
 One temporary well (TMW-11) will be installed in the footprint of proposed Building A
in the southern portion of the Site.
 One temporary well (TMW-12) will be installed in the footprint of proposed Building B
in the southern portion of the Site.

During temporary well boring advancement, continuous soil samples will be collected and
logged for lithologic description and field screened for the presence of staining, odors, and
elevated concentrations of volatile organic vapors using a calibrated PID. The temporary
monitoring wells will be constructed of 2-inch diameter PVC with 10 or 15 ft of pre-packed well
screen (due to sampling for metals) set to bracket the water table and 2-inch diameter PVC well
casing to the ground surface. A sand filter pack will extend from below the base to
approximately 2 ft above the top of the pre-packed well screens followed by at least 2 ft of
hydrated bentonite. Based on estimated depths to groundwater ranging from approximately 15 to
25 ft bgs, H&H estimates that the temporary wells will be installed at depths ranging from
approximately 25 to 35 ft bgs.
8

https://harthick.sharepoint.com/sites/masterfiles-1/shared documents/aaa-master projects/henley capital llc (hny)/hny-001 -
lowell, nc esa/brownfields assessment/work plan/final to deq/bf assessment work plan - pharr yarns lowell (6-20-23).doc
The temporary monitoring wells will be developed by removing a minimum of 3 to 5 well
volumes until field parameters of pH and conductivity stabilize (pH ±0.1 Standard Unit [SU] and
conductivity varies no more than 5%) and development water is visibly clear of suspended
sediment.

After development of the temporary monitoring wells, groundwater samples will be collected
utilizing low flow/low stress purging techniques with a peristaltic 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 wells, and groundwater will be removed at a rate no
greater than 200 milliliters per minute. H&H will utilize a water quality meter to collect
measurements of pH, temperature, dissolved oxygen, oxidation reduction potential, turbidity, and
specific conductivity at 3 to 5-minute intervals during the purging process. Purging will be
considered complete when the parameters stabilize (pH ± 0.1 SU, conductivity varies no more
than 5%, and turbidity is less than 10 Nephelometric Turbidity Units [NTUs]). If turbidity of
less than 10 NTUs cannot be achieved, H&H will collect field-filtered and unfiltered samples for
laboratory analysis of RCRA metals.

Once groundwater parameters stabilize, the groundwater samples will be collected directly into
laboratory supplied sample containers using the “soda straw” method to minimize volatile loss
through the peristaltic pump head. The sample containers will be labeled with the sample
identification, date, and requested analysis, and placed in a laboratory supplied cooler and iced.

Following sample collection, water levels in the temporary monitoring wells will be gauged
utilizing a decontaminated water level meter, and the elevations of the monitoring wells will be
surveyed in the field by H&H personnel. The water level and survey data will be used to
generate a potentiometric map for inclusion in the Brownfields Assessment Report. After
completion of water level collection and survey activities, the temporary monitoring wells will
be properly abandoned by a licensed well driller by removing PVC riser pipe and filling the
boreholes with hydrated bentonite. The monitoring well locations will be estimated using a sub-
meter GPS unit.

2.5 Vapor Intrusion Assessment Activities

H&H proposes to install and sample 23 temporary soil gas points to evaluate the potential for
structural vapor intrusion into the future Site building. The approximate locations of the
proposed soil gas samples are described below.

 Four (4) soil gas sampling points (SG-1 through SG-4) will be installed in the footprint of
proposed Building A in the northern portion of the Site.
 Six (6) soil gas sampling points (SG-5 through SG-10) will be installed in the footprint of
proposed Building B in the northern portion of the Site.
 Four (4) soil gas sampling points (SG-11 through SG-14) will be installed in the footprint
of proposed Building C in the northern portion of the Site.
 Three (3) soil gas sampling points (SG-15 through SG-17) will be installed in the
footprint of proposed Building A in the southern portion of the Site.
 Six (6) soil gas sampling points (SG-18 through SG-23) will be installed in the footprint
of proposed Building B in the southern portion of the Site.

The soil gas points will be installed to a depth of approximately 5.5 ft bgs using a
decontaminated stainless steel hand auger and/or DPT drilling rig. The soil gas points will each
be constructed with a 6-inch long stainless steel screen set at the base of the boring connected to
the surface with ¼-inch new and dedicated Teflon® tubing. The annular space will be filled
with filter sand to approximately 6 inches above the screen, followed by a bentonite seal to the
ground surface. The soil gas points will be installed as temporary points and will be allowed to
equilibrate for a minimum of 24 hours after installation and prior to sample collection described
below.

Prior to soil gas point installation, a 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
10

https://harthick.sharepoint.com/sites/masterfiles-1/shared documents/aaa-master projects/henley capital llc (hny)/hny-001 -
lowell, nc esa/brownfields assessment/work plan/final to deq/bf assessment work plan - pharr yarns lowell (6-20-23).doc
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.

Prior to vapor sampling activities, a leak check will be conducted by constructing a shroud
around the sample train at each soil gas point and flooding the air with helium gas. Helium
concentrations inside the shroud will be measured using a calibrated helium gas detector and
maintained at concentrations of approximately 10% to 20% for the duration of the leak check.
Using a syringe and three-way valve, a minimum of three sample train volumes (including both
the tubing and annulus) will be purged at a maximum flow rate of 200 mL/min, and a sample
will be collected from the sample tubing outside the shroud into a Tedlar bag and analyzed using
the helium gas detector to ensure that helium concentrations are less than 10% of the helium
concentrations measured within the shroud. Note that the helium meter will not be connected to
the sampling train, as it is used independently to measure helium within the shroud and from a
Tedlar bag that is connected to the sampling train.

Following a successful leak check, the samples will be collected using batch-certified 1-liter or
3-liter stainless steel Summa® canisters connected to an air-flow regulator calibrated by the
laboratory for collection of a sample at a rate of approximately 100 milliliters per minute. To
conduct the sampling, the intake valve on the Summa® canister will be fully opened to begin
collection of the sample and vacuum readings on the Summa® canister will be recorded prior to
and following the sampling period to ensure adequate sample volume was collected. A vacuum
will be maintained within the canisters at the conclusion of the sampling event, and vacuum
measurements which include pre- and post-sampling, and sample collection time durations will
be recorded on the chain-of-custody. Canisters that have lost greater than 10% of their vacuum
as determined by comparing the vacuum recorded by the laboratory prior to shipment and the
vacuum recorded in the field during the leak test procedures will not be used for sampling. In
addition, a vacuum of at least five inches of mercury will be maintained on the sample canisters
until the conclusion of the sampling event.
11

lowell, nc esa/brownfields assessment/work plan/final to deq/bf assessment work plan - pharr yarns lowell (6-20-23).doc
After sample collection, the intake valve will be closed, and the regulator will be disconnected
from the sample canister. The canisters will be placed in laboratory supplied shipping
containers, properly labeled, and shipped under standard chain-of-custody protocols to an
accredited laboratory for analysis of VOCs by EPA Method TO-15.

Upon completion of sampling activities, soil gas sampling locations will be recorded in the field
using a hand-held GPS unit. The soil gas points will then be properly abandoned, and the ground
surface will be repaired to generally match pre-sampling conditions.

2.6 Quality Assurance/Quality Control Samples

Non-dedicated equipment and tools will be decontaminated prior to use at each boring or
sampling location or following exposure to soil, soil gas, and/or groundwater. Decontamination
of non-dedicated equipment will follow U.S. EPA Region IV guidance (LSASDPROC-205-R4)
and will consist of wiping the equipment clean, a water-rinse of the equipment, washing the
equipment in water and detergent (i.e., Liquinox® or Luminox®), and a final rinse with water.
The process will be repeated for grossly contaminated non-dedicated equipment.

For quality assurance and quality control purposes (QA/QC) and to evaluate the reproducibility
of the sample results, H&H will collect one duplicate soil, groundwater, and soil gas sample.
The duplicate samples will be submitted for the same laboratory analysis as their respective
parent samples. For the duplicate soil gas sample, H&H will utilize a laboratory-supplied “T-
sampler”, which allows for collection of two samples from the same location simultaneously.
Per laboratory standard operating procedures, a vacuum of approximately five inches of mercury
will be maintained within all canisters at the conclusion of the sampling event. In addition, one
laboratory-provided trip blank sample will be included for every cooler/shipment containing
groundwater samples for VOC analysis.

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
12

lowell, nc esa/brownfields assessment/work plan/final to deq/bf assessment work plan - pharr yarns lowell (6-20-23).doc
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 (i.e., 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.
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.

2.7 Investigation Derived Waste

Investigation derived waste (IDW) generated during the assessment activities will be thinly
spread on-Site. If significant impacts are suspected (i.e., free product), the soil cuttings and
groundwater will be containerized in 55-gallon drums and staged on-Site pending analytical
results of composite IDW samples.

2.8 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, figures depicting sample locations and groundwater flow,
tabulated sample data compared to applicable regulatory screening levels, soil boring logs,
laboratory analytical data, a discussion of the data in comparison to applicable regulatory
screening levels, risk calculations, and conclusions and recommendations concerning our
activities. The report will be sealed by a North Carolina Professional Engineer (PE) or Licensed
Geologist (LG), and the firm PE/LG numbers will be provided.
