PHASE I ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT OF THE
BURLINGTON INDUSTRIES INC -ROCKY MOUNT WAREHOUSE
-13 ACRE INDUSTRIAL PROPERTY AT 750 NORm PINE STREET
ROCKY MOUNT, NORTH CAROLINA
1.0 SUMMARY
On April 2, 2002, at the request of Burlington Industries, Inc., Bensinger & Garrison Environmental,
Inc. (B&G) con.ducted a Phase I Environmental Assessment of the illdustrial property referenced
above. The s~te assessment was conducted in conformance with ASTM Standard B-1527-00 by Mr.
Jack H. Garrison, Jr., Senior Environmental Consultant; and by Mr. Ross Stitt, Environmental
Scientist. ·
Based on our records review, site reconnaissance, and interviews with knowledgeable persons, it is
the opinion of Bensinger & Garrison Environmental. Inc. that several recognized environmental
conditions exist on the subject property (recognized environmental conditions are defined for the
pwposc of this ~ort as the presence or likely presence of any hazardous substances or petroleum
products on a property under conditions that indicate an existing release, a past release, or a material
threat of a release of any hazardous substances or petroleum products into structures on the property
or into the groW1Cl, groundwater, or surface of the property).
Further investigation of the following is recommended:
~ A. Four underground No. 6 fuel oil storage tanks
Two aboveground No. 6 fl.lei oil storage tanks
One aboveground No. 2 fuel oil storage tank
One aboveground diesel fuel storage tank
One aboveground varsol tank

2.1 Pw;pose
The pmpose of this report is to establish whether there is any evid1moo of tho existence of
recognized environmental conditions in connection with the subject property. Recognized
onviromncmtal conditions include the presence or likely presence of any hazardous substances
or petroleum products on a property under conditions that indicate an existing release, a past
release, or a material threat of a release of any hazardous substances or petrolemn products
into structures on the property or into the ground. groundwater, or surface of the property.
This was accomplished by records review, site reconnaissance, and interviews with
knowledgeable persons.

A one-mile and a 0.5-mile radius from the subject site are shown in Figure 1, and any sites
within the search distances are identified by an ID #.
A review of the Federal National Priorities List (NPL) found in the June 14, 2001 Federal
Register indicated that there are no Superfund sites within one mile of tbe subject property.
Hazardous waste rites other than those listed on the NPL list were reviewed using the June
16, 1997 USEPA WASTELAN/Preremedial Federal Facility Report and the March 19, 2002
USEP A Superfund CERCLIS List of Federal Sites, which is also the State Equivalent
CERCLIS List. The former Rocky MolDlt Coal Gas Plant #2 is potentially located within the
one-mile search distance (ID#3). The exact location on North Main Street could not be
determined from the record searc~ however, it would have been located more· th8n O.S mile
downgradient from the subjeot site. Releases from this site are not likely to have impacted the
subject property. Neither the subject property nor any adjacent properties were listed on the
Federal CERCLIS NFRAP Sites List dated March 19, 2002.
Hazardous waste TSO facilities undergoing remediation were researched using the March 13,
2002 Federal RCRAINFO database, and no Bites were identified within the one-mile search
distance. A review of the RCRA TSD Facilities List (March 13, 2002) showed no hazardous
waste treatment, storage or disposal (TSD) facilities within the O.S-mile search distance.
The NCDENR Superfund Section's March 22, 2002 List of Inactive Sites was also reviewed,
and only the Rocky Mount Coal Gas Plant #2 (ID#3) was identified within the one-mile
search distance. This site is not currently under investigation, and any future impact on the
subject property would be the responsibility of the ownm-of the site, not the owner of the
subject property.
Releases of hawdous substances reported under CERClA are listed on the Federal ERNS
list. A review of the April, 2002 ERNS database did not reveal any incidents for the subject
property.
B&O reviewed the State List of Solid Waste Disposal Sites (February 27, 2002) and found no
sites located within a 0.5-mile radius ftom the subject property. A review of the Federal
RCRA Generators Lists (March 13, 2002) identified the adjacent Doc Spun property (ID#S)
and Burlington Industries (subject property) as Small Quantity Generators of hazardous
wastes. No ad_verse environmental conditions were indicated from the activities at the subject
or the adjacent property.
