Initial Assessment Report (for Non -UST Petroleum Releases)
On November 5, 2018, Norfolk Southern personnel discovered a release had occurred during routine
refueling of an engine. The incident resulted in the release of approximately 50 gallons of diesel fuel
from the refueling equipment. The release occurred near milepost 362.7 on the northern shoulder
of the northernmost railway located in Harrisburg, Cabarrus County, North Carolina. Norfolk
Southern and the Harrisburg Fire Department responded to the incident the day the release
occurred. The release was contained within the northern bank of the railway. Norfolk Southern
personnel reported the incident to the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ)
on November 5, 2018.
The Harrisburg Fire Department initiated the cleanup efforts on January 5, 2018 by containing free
product with the use of Oil-Dri, spill pads and absorbent booms, which were deployed at the release
point and along the swale at intermittent locations down gradient of the release. Apex Companies,
LLC (Apex) personnel mobilized to the site on November 7, 2018 to oversee remedial activities. Soil
excavation and confirmatory sampling was completed by Marion Environmental Inc., (Marion) and

B. Site History and Characterization
On November 5, 2018, Norfolk Southern personnel discovered a release had occurred during routine
refueling activities. The release occurred near milepost 362.7 on the northern shoulder of the
northern most railway located in Harrisburg, Cabarrus County, North Carolina. The site location is
shown on Figure 1 and Figure 2. The incident resulted in the release of approximately 50 gallons
of diesel fuel from the refueling equipment. The release was limited to the northern bank of the
railway. (Figure 2). The area of impacted soil was entirely confined to the property owned by the
North Carolina Railroad Company.
Apex mobilized to the site on November 7, 2018 to address the impacted soils. A photographic log
is provided in Appendix A.
C. Groundwater and Surface Water Investigation
The closest waterbody is the Rocky River, approximately 875 feet northeast of the release. The
release was contained within a small area associated with the adjacent rail line and did not impact
any nearby surface water bodies. Groundwater was not encountered during the initial abatement
activities, so no groundwater sampling was conducted.

D. Initial Response and Abatement Action
The Harrisburg Fire Department initiated the cleanup efforts on November 5, 2018 by containing free
product with the use of Oil-Dri, spill pads and absorbent booms, which were deployed at the release
point and along the swale at intermittent locations down gradient of the release. Apex personnel
mobilized to the site on November 7, 2018 to oversee remedial activities. Soil excavation and
confirmatory sampling was completed by Marion and Apex at that time.
E. Excavation of Contaminated Soil
Marion and Apex mobilized to the site on November 7, 2018 to excavate the impacted soils and
collect the necessary confirmation samples for site closure. Excavation activities were limited to the
North Carolina Railroad Company property. The response/abatement actions comprised of the
following;
• over -excavation of contaminated soil,
• placement of the excavated soil into dump trucks for transportation and proper offsite
disposal, and,
• collection of soil confirmation samples to confirm that concentrations of constituents of
concern (COCs) in the remaining soil are below applicable action levels.
The excavation limits were determined through visual, olfactory, and field screening techniques using
a QED Ultra Violet Fluorescence (UVF) supplied by REDLabs of Wilmington, North Carolina. The
QED analyzer can detect total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) concentrations in soil as low as one
milligram per kilogram (mg/kg). The UVF was operated by REDLabs personnel trained and certified
in QED UVF use and operation. The combined area of excavation comprised approximately 152-
square feet in size and was advanced using a mini -excavator and skid steer to depths ranging from
a surface scrape to 3.0 feet below ground surface (bgs). Approximately 13.25 tons of contaminated
soil were removed from the area of impact. Excavated soil was direct loaded by skid steer and mini -
excavator into a dump truck for transport to the Environmental Soils Inc. facility located in Lattimore,
North Carolina. The soil disposal manifest is provided in Appendix B.
The impacted area was the engineered bank of the railroad bed located north of the northern most
rail. The engineered bank is elevated above the adjacent ground. The fuel was contained within this
engineered bank north of the northern most rail. Soils were excavated until concentrations of the
COCs were less than the NCDEQ action levels for TPH as diesel range organics (TPH-DRO) and
gasoline range organics (TPH-GRO).
Apex initially delineated the impacted area by collecting screening samples within the proposed
excavation area to determine where the highest concentrations of soil contamination were located.
The highest concentration was detected in the soil sample Bank 0'-0' located at the top of the
shoulder of the northern rail with a TPH-DRO concentration of 6,111 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg).
The excavation area was extended vertically and horizontally until soil confirmation samples
exhibited TPH-GRO concentrations less than the NCDEQ Soil Action Level of 50 mg/kg and the
TPH-DRO concentrations were less than NCDEQ Soil Action level of 100 mg/kg. A total of 11 soil
confirmation samples were collected from the swale and release point areas and analyzed in the
A
APEX
Initial Assessment Report December 13, 2018
Norfolk Southern Railway, Milepost 362.7, Harrisburg, North Carolina Page 4
field for TPH-DRO and TPH-GRO using the UVF. The confirmation samples exhibited TPH-DRO
concentrations ranging from 1 mg/kg to 37.7 mg/Kg in soil sample SW NE10' (2') and exhibited TPH-
GRO concentrations ranging from below detection limits to 23.8 mg/Kg in soil sample SW NE10' (2').
Following the completion of excavation activities and the collection of the confirmation soil samples,
Marion applied Microblaze to the base and sides of the excavation to enhance natural biodegradation
processes.
None of the 11 confirmation samples collected and analyzed using the UVF exhibited TPH-DRO
above the screening level of 100 mg/kg, or TPH-GRO above the screening level of 50 mg/kg.
Sample locations are shown in Figure 2. The UVF results are summarized in Table 1 and included
in Appendix C.
F. Conclusions
Approximately 50 gallons of diesel fuel was released as the result of an overfill during routine
refueling activities. The fuel was released on the northern shoulder of a Norfolk Southern rail -line
located near milepost 362.7 in Harrisburg, North Carolina. Impacted soil was excavated over an area
of nearly 152-square feet to a maximum depth of approximately 3 feet bgs. A total of 13.25 tons of
soil was excavated and transported off -site for treatment and disposal in accordance with local, state,
and federal requirements.
A total of 11 confirmation soil samples were analyzed using the UVF during the remedial activities
to confirm impacted soils were identified and removed. Confirmation samples collected from the
excavation base and sidewalls did not contain TPH-DRO or TPH-GRO at concentrations exceeding
their respective action level. Apex recommends that the incident be closed and that a no further
action letter be issued for this release.
