6. For purposes of this Agreement, DEQ relies on the following representations by
Prospective Developer as to use and ownership of the Brownfields Property:
a. According to the historical property deeds, in the 1920s the Brownfields
Property was owned by Trustees of Calvary Methodist Episcopal Church of Charlotte, NC
(8/6/1920-10/8/1920), AM McDonald (10/8/1920-12/11/1922), OJ & Blanche Thies
(12/11/1922-9/8/1923), and John M Scott (9/8/1923). According to the Sanborn Maps, three
residences were located on the Brownfields Property from at least 1929 until 1962.
b. The Brownfields Property was developed with a light industrial facility in the
mid to late 1920s. Southern Electrical Equipment Company began operations on the
Brownfields Property from at least 1925 until 1964. Southern Electrical manufactured
switchboards and switchboard equipment in the building located on the central portion of the
Brownfields Property.
21048-17-060/Former Wepak Facility (DRAFT 2018.12.17)
c. The White Company operated an automotive and truck repair business in the
northwestern building of the Brownfields Property from at least 1931 until 1937. Other auto
sales and service warehouses as well as bus garage and repair businesses continued at the
Brownfields Properties until at least 1989 with companies including: Atlantic Greyhound
Corporation (1944-1959), Stewart Supply Company (1964-1974), Automotive Specialty
Warehouse Company (1969-1974), Hill Truck Rental (1974-1984), and UPS Truck Leasing
(1989).
d. Wepak has operated as a janitorial chemical manufacturer at the Brownfields
Property since from the mid-1970s until November 2017, expanding operations to all of the on -
site buildings.
e. The southern -most building located on the Brownfields Property was
constructed in 1957 and was occupied by Camo Coated Fabrics Inc (1964), Hill Truck Rental
(1974-1984), UPS Truck Leasing (1989), Bradcom Inc screen printing (1994), and Carolina
Courier (1999-2005).
f. Poffenbarger & Associates, Inc owned the entire Brownfields Property from
September 29, 1977 until October 30, 2007. The Brownfields Property was then owned by Bob
Poffenbarger, LLC, Lynn Poffenbarger Selland & Jeffrey Selland, and Kim Poffenbarger
Sabatini from October 30, 2007 until November 15, 2017. The Brownfields Property was leased
to a variety of aforementioned tenants, including Wepak over the course of this ownership.
g. The Prospective Developer purchased the Brownfields Property on November
15, 2017. Since purchasing the Brownfields Property, Prospective Developer has allowed
Wepak an extended grace period to cease operations and remove all tanks and equipment from
al
21048-17-060/Former Wepak Facility (DRAFT 2018.12.17)
the on -site buildings. As of April 2018, Wepak has decommissioned and ceased chemical
manufacturing operations on the Brownfields property.
h. The Prospective Developer has also been conducting environmental
assessment in accordance with the NC DEQ Brownfields Program.
7. Pertinent environmental information regarding the Brownfields Property and
surrounding area includes the following:
a. In April 1976, three Underground Storage Tanks (USTs) were installed at the
332 West Bland Street building for the UPS Truck lease facility. The three USTs consisted of a
10,000-gallon diesel UST, 10,000-gallon gasoline UST, and 1,000-gallon motor oil UST. These
USTs were reportedly removed in December 1988 but no closure information is available.
b. In the 1990s, Wepak installed a stormwater drain near the shipping and
receiving loading dock. Soil from drain installation was placed in the secondary containment
area. The secondary containment area is located on the southeast side of the facility near the
shipping and receiving loading dock. It was previous utilized for storage of a bulk chemical
aboveground storage tank (AST) farm and chemicals were pumped through above -ground PVC
piping system into the building.
c. In 1995, Wepak had a release of approximately 1,500-gallons of muriatic acid
from an AST located on the southeast portion of the building. The muriatic acid flowed across
the Brownfields Property, through the 314 West Bland Street building, into a stormwater drain
which discharged to Irwin Creek. The muriatic acid spill resulted in a fish -kill in the creek.
Wepak received a notice of violation and fine for not complying with reporting requirements
associated with a release incident by the Charlotte -Mecklenburg Stormwater Services
5
21048-17-060/Former Wepak Facility (DRAFT 2018.12.17)
Department. Wepak operated under a NDPES permit (Permit# NCG060134).
d. During the July 7, 2017 field reconnaissance, Hart and Hickman, Prospective
Developer's environmental consultant, noted that multiple 55-gallon drums and pallets w/dry
sacks of materials stored in chemical storage areas located in the western and central portions of
the building located at 314 W. Bland Street and secured flammable materials storage area located
in the central and eastern portions of the building located at 314 W Bland Street of the Wepak
facility. Chemicals in these containers included: phosphoric acid, muriatic acid, ethylene
glycols, isopropyl alcohol (50&90%), chelating agents, monoethanolamine (caustic cleaner),
hydroxy propyl betaine (anti -bacterial agent), caustic soda, Maquat 624&2420-80 (pesticides),
urea, sodium tripolyphosphate (detergent), NP 10 (surfactant), sodium silicates (viscosity control
agent), and sodium xylenes (stain remover).
e. Heavier staining and standing liquids were observed in the silk screen cleaning
area near the settling drum located on the northwest portion of the 314 W Bland Street building
during the 2017 site reconnaissance.
f. On August 27, 2018, Hart & Hickman completed activities to abandon
underground fill port piping from a previously removed UST located in the southeast corner
underneath the 332 W Bland Street building. Approximately 15 gallons of gasoline and water
mixture was removed from the piping via vacuum truck for off -site disposal and each pipe was
filled with grout.
8. The most recent environmental sampling at the Brownfields Property reported in the
Environmental Reports occurred on September 7, 2018. The tables set forth in Exhibit 2 to this
Agreement present contaminants present at the Brownfields Property above applicable standards
Con
21048-17-060/Former Wepak Facility (DRAFT 2018.12.17)
or screening levels for each media sampled.

representations that Prospective Developer's involvement with the Brownfields Property has
been limited to obtaining or commissioning the Environmental Reports, preparing and
submitting to DEQ a Brownfields Property Application (BPA) dated September 26, 2017
a. On November 15, 2017, Prospective Developer purchased the Brownfields Property;
b. On March 9, 2018, Hart & Hickman conducted groundwater and soil sampling at the
Brownfields Property on behalf of the Prospective Developer, and
c. On September 7, 2018 Hart & Hickman conducted soil and sub -slab vapor sampling at
the Brownfields Property on behalf of the Prospective Developer.
10. Prospective Developer has provided DEQ with information, or sworn certifications
regarding that information on which DEQ relies for purposes of this Agreement, sufficient to
demonstrate that:
a. Prospective Developer and any parent, subsidiary, or other affiliate has
substantially complied with federal and state laws, regulations and rules for protection of the
environment, and with the other agreements and requirements cited at NCGS § 130A-
310.32(a)(1);
b. As a result of the implementation of this Agreement, the Brownfields Property
will be suitable for the uses specified in the Agreement while fully protecting public health and

any current lessee or sublessee on the Brownfields Property within seven days of the effective
date of this Agreement.
VII. DUE CARE/COOPERATION
23. The Prospective Developer shall exercise due care at the Brownfields Property with
respect to the manner in which regulated substances are handled at the Brownfields Property and
shall comply with all applicable local, State, and federal laws and regulations. The Prospective
Developer agrees to cooperate fully with any assessment or remediation of the Brownfields
Property by DEQ and further agrees not to interfere with any such assessment or remediation. In
the event the Prospective Developer becomes aware of any action or occurrence which causes or
threatens a release of contaminants at or from the Brownfields Property, the Prospective
Developer shall immediately take all appropriate action to prevent, abate, or minimize such
release or threat of release, shall comply with any applicable notification requirements under
NCGS § 130A-310.1 and 143-215.85, Section 103 of CERCLA, 42 USC § 9603, and/or any
20
21048-17-060/Former Wepak Facility (DRAFT 2018.12.17)
other law, and shall immediately notify the DEQ Official referenced in paragraph 35.a. below of
any such required notification.
VIII. CERTIFICATION
24. By entering into this Agreement, the Prospective Developer certifies that, without
DEQ approval, it will make no use of the Brownfields Property other than that committed to in
the Brownfields Property Application dated September 26, 2017, by which it applied for this
Agreement. That use is retail, office, parking, restaurant, indoor/hardscape recreation, open
space, entertainment, amenity space, brewery or food production facility, industrial,
warehousing, and with prior written DEQ approval, other commercial uses. Prospective
Developer also certifies that to the best of its knowledge and belief it has fully and accurately
disclosed to DEQ all information known to Prospective Developer and all information in the
possession or control of its officers, directors, employees, contractors and agents which relates in
any way to any past use of regulated substances or known contaminants at the Brownfields
Property and to its qualification for this Agreement, including the requirement that it not have
caused or contributed to the contamination at the Brownfields Property.
IX. DEQ'S COVENANT NOT TO SUE AND RESERVATION OF RIGHTS
25. Unless any of the following apply, Prospective Developer shall not be liable to DEQ,
and DEQ covenants not to sue Prospective Developer, for remediation of the Brownfields
Property except as specified in this Agreement:
a. The Prospective Developer fails to comply with this Agreement.
b. The activities conducted on the Brownfields Property by or under the control
or direction of the Prospective Developer increase the risk of harm to public health or the
21
21048-17-060/Former Wepak Facility (DRAFT 2018.12.17)
environment, in which case Prospective Developer shall be liable for remediation of the areas of
the Brownfields Property, remediation of which is required by this Agreement, to the extent
necessary to eliminate such risk of harm to public health or the environment.
c. A land use restriction set out in the Notice of Brownfields Property required
under NCGS § 130A-310.35 is violated while the Prospective Developer owns the Brownfields
Property, in which case the Prospective Developer shall be responsible for remediation of the
Brownfields Property to unrestricted use standards.
d. The Prospective Developer knowingly or recklessly provided false information
that formed a basis for this Agreement or knowingly or recklessly offers false information to
demonstrate compliance with this Agreement or fails to disclose relevant information about
contamination at the Brownfields Property.
e. New information indicates the existence of previously unreported
contaminants or an area of previously unreported contamination on or associated with the
Brownfields Property that has not been remediated to unrestricted use standards, unless this
Agreement is amended to include any previously unreported contaminants and any additional
areas of contamination. If this Agreement sets maximum concentrations for contaminants, and
new information indicates the existence of previously unreported areas of these contaminants,
further remediation shall be required only if the areas of previously unreported contaminants
raise the risk of the contamination to public health or the environment to a level less protective of
public health and the environment than that required by this Agreement.
f. The level of risk to public health or the environment from contaminants is
unacceptable at or in the vicinity of the Brownfields Property due to changes in exposure
22
21048-17-060/Former Wepak Facility (DRAFT 2018.12.17)
conditions, including (i) a change in land use that increases the probability of exposure to
contaminants at or in the vicinity of the Brownfields Property or (ii) the failure of remediation to
mitigate risks to the extent required to make the Brownfields Property fully protective of public
health and the environment as planned in this Agreement.
g. DEQ obtains new information about a contaminant associated with the
Brownfields Property or exposures at or around the Brownfields Property that raises the risk to
public health or the environment associated with the Brownfields Property beyond an acceptable
range and in a manner or to a degree not anticipated in this Agreement.
h. The Prospective Developer fails to file a timely and proper Notice of
Brownfields Property under NCGS § 130A-310.35.
26. Except as may be provided herein, DEQ reserves its rights against Prospective
Developer as to liabilities beyond the scope of the Act.
27. This Agreement does not waive any applicable requirement to obtain a permit,
license or certification, or to comply with any and all other applicable law, including the North
Carolina Environmental Policy Act, NCGS § 113A-1, et SeMc .
28. Consistent with NCGS § 130A-310.33, the liability protections provided herein, and
any statutory limitations in paragraphs 25 through 27 above, apply to all of the persons listed in
NCGS § 130A-310.33, including future owners of the Brownfields Property, to the same extent
as Prospective Developer, so long as these persons are not otherwise potentially responsible
parties or parents, subsidiaries, or affiliates of potentially responsible parties.
23
21048-17-060/Former Wepak Facility (DRAFT 2018.12.17)
X. PROSPECTIVE DEVELOPER'S COVENANT NOT TO SUE
29. In consideration of DEQ's Covenant Not To Sue in Section IX of this Agreement
and in recognition of the absolute State immunity provided in NCGS § 130A-310.37(b), the
Prospective Developer hereby covenants not to sue and not to assert any claims or causes of
action against DEQ, its authorized officers, employees, or representatives with respect to any
action implementing the Act, including negotiating, entering, monitoring or enforcing this
Agreement or the above -referenced Notice of Brownfields Property.
XI. PARTIES BOUND
30. This Agreement shall apply to and be binding upon DEQ, and on the Prospective
Developer, its officers, directors, employees, and agents. Each Party's signatory to this
Agreement represents that she or he is fully authorized to enter into the terms and conditions of

XII. DISCLAIMER
31. Prospective Developer and DEQ agree that this Agreement meets the requirements of
the Act, including but not limited to the requirements set forth in NCGS § 130A-310.32(a)(2).
However, this Agreement in no way constitutes a finding by DEQ as to the risks to public health
and the environment which may be posed by regulated substances at the Brownfields Property, a
representation by DEQ that the Brownfields Property is fit for any particular purpose, nor a
waiver of Prospective Developer's duty to seek applicable permits or of the provisions of NCGS
§ 130A-310.37.
32. Except for the land use restrictions set forth in paragraph 15 above and NCGS §
130A-310.33(a)(l)-(5)'s provision of the Act's liability protection to certain persons to the same

21048-17-060/Former Wepak Facility (DRAFT 2018.12.17)
extent as to a prospective developer, no rights, benefits or obligations conferred or imposed upon
Prospective Developer under this Agreement are conferred or imposed upon any other person.
XIII. DOCUMENT RETENTION
33. The Prospective Developer agrees to retain and make available to DEQ all business
and operating records, contracts, site studies and investigations, remediation reports, and
documents generated by and/or in the control of the Prospective Developer, its affiliates or
subsidiaries relating to storage, generation, use, disposal and management of regulated
substances at the Brownfields Property, including without limitation all Material Safety Data
Sheets or Safety Data Sheets, for six (6) years following the effective date of this Agreement,

basis upon which they are being withheld. To the extent DEQ retains any copies of such
documents, Prospective Developer retains all rights it then may have to seek protection from
disclosure of such documents as confidential business information.
