Good morning Joselyn, Please see attached BF application for the new anticipated owner/PD of the former True Textiles site located in
Elkin, NC. This includes the signed affidavit; the original will be delivered to the Raleigh DEQ office per your
direction. As we discussed yesterday, this does not include the "dam parcel" and no application fee is included
because it was previously paid for by LBC Subs, LLC (the current seller). Thank for you expediting your review of the application! We look forward to receipt of a letter of eligibility on or before 30 September 2016. Please don't hesitate to call or email should you have any questions or require a revision to the
application to facilitate approval. Thank you!

Best, Kaitlyn

Brownfields Property Application
North Carolina Brownfields Program

Instructions/Important Information for Applicants
The Brownfields Property Reuse Act (Act) sets forth the conditions under which a site and a
prospective developer (PD) are eligible for a brownfields agreement. To start the process of seeking
a brownfields agreement, please complete this application. The North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources’ (DENR’s) North Carolina Brownfields Program (NCBP) will
base its eligibility determination on the information provided in this application and on other
information that may be obtained by NCBP. This eligibility determination is an administrative tool that allows the NCBP to spend resources strictly on those sites that meet the statutory eligibility
criteria. The application will also allow the NCBP to allocate its resources first to those projects that demonstrate the highest degree of public benefit.
The application form is available for download at www.ncbrownfields.org as an MSWord form and a PDF. It is divided into the following sections:
Section I. Prospective Developer Information - facts regarding the applicant Section II. Site Information - facts regarding the property Section III Other Required Information - a “checklist” to help ensure that additional information
that must be submitted with the application is included. Section IV. Additional Required Forms - NCBP has two forms that are required to be used for two
of the attachments to this application: a “Preliminary Proposed Brownfields
Agreement” form and a “Responsibility and Compliance Affidavit” form. Please note that the “Preliminary Proposed Brownfields Agreement” must be initialed and
the “Responsibility and Compliance Affidavit” must be signed and notarized.
A determination of eligibility does not mean that the site is guaranteed to remain eligible or that the
PD is assured of receiving a final brownfields agreement; rather, it means that a PD is eligible to
seek a brownfields agreement regarding the site. As the process moves forward, NCBP has the continuing duty to exercise its discretion as to whether DENR should enter into a brownfields
agreement regarding a particular site. Comments received from the public may alter NCBP’s view regarding eligibility. Also, new information that runs counter to statutory eligibility criteria and obtained by the NCBP following an affirmative eligibility determination will require NCBP to re-
evaluate eligibility. The Act requires DENR to determine that brownfields projects have public benefit commensurate
with the liability relief provided by the brownfields agreement. Letters of community support can be a strong gauge of public benefit. Economic development factors are important measures of this as well. Therefore, in Section II, please be as specific as possible regarding questions that pertain to
economic measures of public benefit, including job creation, redevelopment investment, etc. Please be assured that while the NCBP reports this information to the General Assembly as a measure of
overall programmatic public benefit, we do not report it on a site-specific basis. The data is only
used in aggregate.

2
The process of applying for entry into the NCBP is as follows:
Download, fill out, and return the Brownfields Property Application form. If you do not have
internet access you may contact the NCBP at [phone] to obtain a copy of this form. If you
have MSWord as a word processor, you may use it to download and fill out the MSWord Form (downloading the form in PDF format will require that the form be filled out by hand). You must
submit the original forms and attachments to:
NC Brownfields Program
Attention: Shirley Liggins
N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources
Division of Waste Management 1646 Mail Service Center Raleigh NC 27699-1646

Please note that attachments to the application include the “Responsibility and Compliance Affidavit”, which must be signed and notarized, and the “Preliminary Proposed Brownfields Agreement”, which must be initialed. (Be advised that the Preliminary Proposed Brownfields
Agreement is primarily an informational form for the NCBP to use in generating the brownfields
agreement and is not the actual brownfields agreement that will be signed by DENR.)
1. Based upon the review of the application, the NCBP will provide the applicant PD one of the
following: A. A Letter of Eligibility (LOE) indicating that the property is eligible for continued negotiations towards a brownfields agreement. Upon receipt of an LOE, the initial
statutory fee of $2,000 is due from the PD to the NCBP. At this point, the PD also needs to submit any and all environmental data it has or can obtain regarding the site;
B. A Letter of Deficiency indicating that the submitted application is deficient in some manner and eligibility cannot be determined, at which time additional information or
corrections to the application will be requested from the applicant PD; or
C. A letter indicating that the property and/or the applicant PD are ineligible for a brownfields agreement.
The above steps end the application process. The remainder of the process of obtaining the
brownfields agreement is summarized as follows:
3. The NCBP reviews the existing environmental data and determines if there are
knowledge gaps. The NCBP may require additional assessment to be conducted by the PD to fill in those gaps. Depending on the situation, such assessment may be required prior to completion of a draft brownfields agreement or it may be incorporated in the
brownfields agreement requirements.
4. The NCBP considers all data at hand and drafts the brownfields agreement outlining those items necessary to make the site suitable for the uses intended while fully protecting
public health and the environment. These items could include land use restrictions, engineered controls, remedial actions or a combination of these actions. The draft BFA is
forwarded to the PD.
3
5.The final draft brownfields agreement is negotiated and finalized between DENR and the PD.The statutory ancillary documents are prepared (including a brownfields property plat and
Notice of Intent to Redevelop a Brownfields Property) and this notice is opened to public
comment for a minimum of 30 days.
6.A second fee, required by statute to defray the costs to DENR and DOJ, will be due from the
PD prior to execution of the brownfields agreement. Presently this second fee is $6,000,subject to negotiation in the brownfields agreement. Should the prospective developerchoose to negotiate changes to the agreement that necessitate evaluation by the
Department of Justice, additional fees shall apply.
7.Any addendum/modification of the Brownfields documents after they take effect willrequire a fee from you in the amount of at least $1,000.00.
8.In the absence of public comment which affects the agreement it is then signed and theagreement becomes effective (i.e., executed). If the NCBP receives public comment or a
equest for a public meeting, the NCBP will consider input from the public and determine any
necessary changes to the brownfields agreement. It will then decide whether those changeswarrant an additional public comment period or if the brownfields agreement can be
executed after the appropriate changes are made.
9.The PD records the Notice of Brownfields Property at the county register of deed’s office.
10.Once executed, brownfields agreements require that the owner of any part of the brownfields
property provide an annual certification to the NCBP (known as a Land Use RestrictionUpdate or LURU) that the Notice of Brownfields Property containing the land use restrictionsremains recorded at the register of deeds and that the land use restrictions are being
complied with.

B. Regulatory Agency Involvement: List the site names and all identifying numbers (ID No.)
previously or currently assigned by any federal, state or local environmental regulatory agencies for the property. The ID No’s may include CERCLIS numbers, RCRA generator
numbers for past and present operations, UST database, Division of Water Quality’s incident management database, and/or Inactive Hazardous Sites Branch inventory numbers. (In many instances, the PD will need to actively seek out this information by reading
environmental site assessment reports, reviewing government files, contacting government
officials, and through the use of government databases, many of which may be available over the internet.)

Agency Name/ID No: NCDENR/No. WQ0013982 (permit to land apply sludge off-site)
C. In what way(s) is the property abandoned, idled, or underused?
The buildings on the main mill facility parcels total 1.5 million square feet of which 1.1 million square feet is unused. In addtion to the under-utilized building space, land at the site is also
under-utilized. Unclosed coal combustion biproduct (CCB) ponds are located on the southern parcel and inhibit use/redevelopment. See Attachment 4 for current and former Site building usage.
D. In what way(s) is the actual or possible contamination at the property a hindrance to
development or redevelopment of the property (attach any supporting documentation such as
letters from lending institutions)?
The proposed lessee and prospective developer are concerned about existing impacts to
groundwater and soil and presence of CCBs. To facilitate reuse of the property, mitigation measures may be required. These measures will make the property more desireable to
interested buyers and lessees.
E. In what way(s) is the redevelopment of the property difficult or impossible without a
brownfields agreement (attach any supporting documentation such as letters form lending
institutions)?
Underlying impact to groundwater and the residual soil impacts associated with the property leave potential buyers and future tenants trepidatious. A Brownfields Agreement would provide interested buyers protection from the associated environmental liability. In addition, relocating
the textile mill operations will open up the existing parcels to alternative uses.
F. What are the planned use(s) of the redeveloped brownfields property to which the PD will
commit? Be as specific as specific as possible.
11
The intent is to comprehensively redevelop the property. The property is located on the
Yadkin River and would be ideal for recreation, retail and business use. The intent is to work
with the Elkin Redevelopment Council and/or form a public-private partnership (P3) to convert the property into a mixed use area benefiting the surrounding community. As part of
this effort, JW Industrial Group plans to close the CCB ponds in place to elminate the existing attractive nuisance and human health and safety/exposure hazard. The redevelopment may be conducted in stages. The first stage would be the relocation of the textile operations to
facilitate desireable reuse. The property currently has over 80 structures on site many of which are antiquated and do not meet current building code and are not eligible for certificate of occupancy. Selective green demolition and recycling of materials will facilitate future new
development and new structures built to current standards and code and improve the access, curb-appeal, and green space site wide. A market analysis will be performed to help
evaluate use options. Usable buildings will be separated/subdivided for future users and
utilites will be separated where applicable making buildings efficient and affortable for small businesses to lease. JW Industrial Group ultimately desires to divest themselves of portions
of the property and sell in part to new users and developers. In the near term, JW Industrial
Group plans several beneficial reuse and redevelopment steps which create jobs, reutilize currently unoccupied building space and utilizes the property for community benefit.

G. Current tax value of brownfields property: $1.9M
H. Estimated capital investment in redevelopment project: $2.5M

I. List and describe the public benefits that will result from the property’s redevelopment. Be as specific as possible. (Examples of public benefits for brownfields projects include job creation, tax base increases, revitalization of blighted areas, preserved green space, preserved historic
places, improving disadvantaged neighborhood quality-of-life related retail shopping opportunities, affordable housing, environmental cleanup activities or set asides that have
community or environmental benefits. In gauging public benefit, NCBP places great value
upon letters of support from community groups and local government that describe anticipated improvements in quality of life for neighboring communities that the project will
bring about. The inclusion of such support letters with this application is recommended and
encouraged.)
The following are public benefits that would result from the property's redevelopment: 1. Job
creation: Currently there are 110 people employed at the textile mill. These jobs would be preserved during the relocation of the textile mill operations and additional jobs would be created
as property was converted to a mixed use area for the community. 2. Tax base increases:
Opening up this site to new buisnesses will increase the tax base. 3. Revitalizaiton of blighted areas: Currently the area is underused. The redevelopment, potential environmental cleanup,
and relocation of the textile operations will help revitalize the area. 4. Preserved green space: The property occupies a great location along the Yadkin River. If the now underused land was used for recreation purposes, the community would have increased green space access 5. Retail
shopping opportunites: The plan to convert this to a mixed use space would include opportunties for retailers to move into the space. 6. Environmental cleanup activities: In order to redevelop
the area and make it desirable to buyers, groundwater and soil impacts and CCB may need to
be addressed.
12

Special Note: Please describe all environment-friendly technologies and designs PD plans to utilize in its redevelopment strategy. For example, environment friendly redevelopment
plans could include: Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Certification, green building materials; green landscaping techniques such as using drought resistant plants; energy efficient designs, materials, appliances, machinery, etc.; renewable sources of
energy, and/or recycling/reuse of old building materials such as brick or wood. JW Industrial Group will recycle/resell or reuse a percentage of demolition debris including
but not limited to brick, timbers and scrap metal.

J. Who will own the brownfields property when the Notice of Brownfields Property is filed with
the register of deeds at the conclusion of the brownfields process? (If information is the
same as 1.A. above, please indicate.)

III.Protective MeasuresI am prepared to take steps necessary to make the property suitable for its planned uses while
fully protecting public health and the environment. I propose that NCBP consider a brownfields
agreement that will make the property suitable for the planned use(s) through the following
mechanism(s) (check all that apply):
Contaminant remediation to risk-based levels.
Engineered Controls (e.g., low permeability caps, vapor mitigation systems, etc)
Land use restrictions that run with the land that will restrict or prohibit uses that are
unacceptable from a risk assessment/management perspective. (Important Note: In any
19
final brownfields agreement generated by the NCBP, land use restrictions will ultimately
come with the continuing obligation to submit an annual certification that the Land Use
Restrictions are being complied with and are recorded at the applicable register of deeds office.)
IV.Fees
In connection with a brownfields agreement, the Act requires that the developer pay fees to
offset the cost to the Department of Environment and Natural Resources and the Department of Justice. In satisfaction of the Act, the following fees apply to any brownfields agreement that is
developed for this project, subject to negotiation of the brownfields agreement:
a. A $2,000 initial fee will be due from the applicant PD when both of the following occur:
1) NCBP receives this application and proposed brownfields agreement, AND
2)NCBP notifies the applicant in writing that the applicant PD and the project are eligible for
participation in the NCBP and continued negotiation of a brownfields agreement.
b. A second fee of $6,000 will be due from the PD prior to execution of the brownfields
agreement. Should the prospective developer choose to negotiate changes to the agreement
that necessitate evaluation by the Department of Justice, additional fees shall apply.
c.Any addendum/modifications to the BFA or NBP after they are in effect will result in anadditional fee of at least $1,000.
