This is an internal courtesy notice to inform your program that the NC Brownfields Program has
received a Brownfields Property Application, submitted by Woodfield Acquisitions, LLC as the
Prospective Developer (PD), seeking entry into the Brownfields Program for the following property:
Site Name:

BF Project Number: 18055-14-060
Tax ID: 07842109 & 07842110

former cotton mill, yarn mill and bag factory. Ada Cotton Mill was listed in late 1800s. Holly

We are now evaluating Woodfield Acquisitions, LLC, and the subject property for eligibility for entry
into the Brownfields Program. Under the Brownfields Property Reuse Act, only entities that did not
cause or contribute to the contamination at the property are eligible to enter the program. The
applicant PD has asserted that: 1) it has not caused or contributed to the contamination at the
property, and 2) it has substantially complied with laws, regulations, and rules for the protection of
the environment. If you have any information to suggest otherwise, please provide that information
to me by January 1, 2015.
Information regarding the applicant PD, including the primary PD contact person, is as follows:
PD Contact's Name: Sean Sullivan, Troutman Sanders
PD Name: Woodfield Acquisitions, LLC
PD Contact Address: 434 Fayetteville St., STE 1900, Raleigh, NC 27601
PD Contact Phone: 919-835-8748
A Brownfields Agreement (BFA) has no legal effect on your agency's authority to regulate or
enforce against any and all parties who caused or contributed to the contamination at the
property. In fact, the BFA will require the developer to provide access to the property to any
party doing work under any DENR program.
A BFA provides liability protection only to a non-causative redeveloper of the property. The
developer will be required to make the property safe for its intended re-use. Cleanup to
unrestricted use standards will not be required unless deemed necessary based on the
developer's proposed use of the property. In addition, the BFA will not change or alter the
developer's responsibility to obtain any and all DENR permits (e.g. storm water, sediment
control, NPDES, etc.) as required under applicable law.
Please be advised that the Program does not desire to inundate all regulatory entities with
additional email notices unless you request it. Therefore, if you would like to be notified when
this project is deemed eligible to pursue a brownfields agreement, please let me know. If you
have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.
If you have any questions or information you feel may be helpful in our evaluation, please don't
hesitate to contact me.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
