Rick McLean, Mooresville's town

because the facility was stand-
ing vacant and we're excited that
[Cherokee] is doing something
with it."
A market report published last
month on the Web site of trade
publication Brownfield News
(brownfleldcentral.com) identifies
Cherokee as one of the few dedi-·
cated investors riding what the
report calls the "roller coaster"
of brownfield investments-real-
estate deals made more risky by
the pollution factor. "As the mar-
ket matures, it is becoming more
difficult to find brownfield in-
vestments that will g~enerate yields
north of 30 percent," the
report reads.
Darden is the first to admit
that the type of investing Chero-
kee does is anything but risk-
free. The same perils of average
real-estate deals apply -Will it

velopment? -with the added

Cherokee is alone in its role as a
sizable venture fund concentrating
on brownfield investment. But
Tony Duque, brownfield project
manager at the N.C. Division of
Waste Management, wonders
whether that's soon to change.
"I think Cherokee is represen-
tative of what will be a growing
trend," Duque said. ·
A gradual loosening of state

make the sites more attractive

Re: Cherokee Mooresville-Comments on the Draft Brownfield Agreement
Dear Mr. Duque:
702 Oberlin Road
Suite 150
Raleigh, NC 27605
(919) 743-2500
Thank you for providing the draft Brownfield Agreement for the Cherokee Mooresville site for our
review. Please find enclosed a marked up version of the agreement that provides our suggested changes.
Provided below is an explanation of the more important changes we are requesting.
Comments
• The entity that owns the property and completing the redevelopment is Cherokee Mooresville, LLC,
not Cherokee Investment Partners. We can amend our letter of intent to reflect this if needed.
We suggest deleting text throughout the document that is not needed to establish the actions to assure
the safe reuse of the site. This would include, for example, information about Cherokee Investment
Partners and overly detailed descriptions of the intended site reuse.
• In light of the limited contamination, we believe that redevelopment of the site should be unrestricted
{ and could include residential, commercial or industrial uses.
• We suggest that the summary of site contamination levels be moved from section IV. BENEFIT TO
COMMUNITY to section III. FINDJNGS OF FACT.
• In section V. WORK TO BE PERFORMED, the use of chloroform, I ,2-dichoroethene and
tetrachloroethene in excess of de minimus amounts is prohibited. We suggest that this be deleted. We
believe that the use of these materials, or any other chemicals and hazardous substances for that
matter, should be governed by the host of environmental and safety standards that apply regardless of
the brownfield agreement.

Comments on the Mooresville Brownfield Agreement • Page 2
• In section V. WORK TO BE PERFORMED, the owner(s) of the property are required to provide an
annual update certifying that the land use restrictions set forth in the agreement are being complied
with. This is extremely problematic --the imposition of reporting requirements on subsequent site
owners could jeopardize our ability to redevelop and eventually sell the property.
Because this is an important point, we conducted a review of other well-established state brownfield
cleanup programs, including those in Massachusetts, California and Illinois, to determine how they •
ensure compliance with land use restrictions. None of these states require annual reporting. Instead, '
0, restrictions due to environmental considerations are recorded in the real-property records like any
other instrument affecting title. In each state, as in North Carolina, the regulators are given the right tc
enter the property to inspect to ensure com liance, but there is no self-reporting obligation. /_-#!. 1
w•wt?f. .,.L """"'"S ra:ft..l.t. <:lid wj{.t....::/ 'firtH< s..,J;,...MA ~jllt~f~"~t-~
• In section V. WORK TO BE PERFORMED, references are made to conducting remediation, if •
needed, in accordance with the Guidelines of the Inactive Hazardous Sites Branch. As we discussed,
these guidelines give the assessment and cleanup standards and procedural requirements that apply to
inactive hazardous sites, which typically are highly contaminated, serious problems. Taken literally,
the requirement to follow these guidelines could have unintended consequences --any contamination,
regardless of how minor, could be subject to the extensive work plans, quality assurance and
reporting and public participation requirements of the inactive hazardous sites program. Moreover,
certain types of contamination, for example, a release from a UST, should be addressed by the UST
program guidelines and not under the inactive hazardous sites program.
We suggest that references to the Guidelines of the Inactive Hazardous Sites Branch be replaced with
(a more general obligation to meet applicable DENR guid.elines. )-wk.t.l:.l-1., t{ ,,oto. s;.1 c~
• We suggest that the brownfield agreement itself not be made an exhibit to the Notice ofBrownfields
Property filed with the Iredell Register of Deeds. The agreement includes a number of obligations tha
are unrelated to the land use restrictions that could have unintended consequences if it were to
become part of the property's chain-of-title. We believe that only the land use restrictions themselves,
in our case focusing on prohibiting groundwater use, should be filed with the deed.
Again, thanlc you for all the assistance. Please feel free to contact me after you have had an opportunity to
review the marked up agreement and our comments.
Sincerely,

DENR's COMMENTS AND RATIONALE FOR DENR's CHANGES, BURLINGTON BFA
Introduction, I" paragraph-PD's proposed change ofPD to "Cherokee Mooresville, LLC" is
accepted subject to DENR's receipt and approval of I) PD's request to amend LOI, accordingly,
and 2) the requisite, notarized affidavit signed by the new PD.
Introduction, 2"d paragraph-PD's proposed change in use is accepted subject to DENR's
receipt and approval ofPD's request to amend the LOI, accordingly.
Paragraph 3-PD's proposed use change is accepted subject to same receipt/approval as above.
Paragraph 4-PD's proposed replacement of"representations" with "information provided" is
rejected because the information provided by PD represents an account of the prior and current
use of the Property that PD purports to be an accurate account. In addition, the relationship
between these representations and the information on which they are based is established in the
second sentence of the paragraph.
PD's proposed deletion of reference to PD's Letter oflntent as a source of information is
rejected because information in the LOI comprises part of the account PD has provided.
Paragraph 5-PD's proposed insertion of the word "limited" is rejected because that term begs
a definition, which has not been proposed and which would be difficult to create/construct.
Paragraph 9.c. -DENR feels the work conducted voluntarily by PD to address and resolve site
UST issues is a bona fide public benefit of the site's redevelopment and should be retained as
evidence thereof in theBF A.
Paragraph IO.a.v.-PD's proposal to delete prohibitions regarding the use of contaminants
known to exist on the Property is rejected because DENR can not risk providing liability
protection to PD (and a potential host of other entities down the road) concerning those
contaminants only to be faced with trying to identify who was responsible for and what was the
source of any observed increase in their presence at the Property in the future. However, DENR
has amended the language to allow the use of these compounds subject to prior DENR approval.
Such approval would be based on DENR's review of a request to use one or more of these
compounds, and a description of the conditions of their use that was sufficiently compelling to
DENR that the conditions provide adequate protective measures (spill control, monitoring, etc.)
to make their use acceptable.
Paragraph IO.a.vi.-PD's proposal to delete this subparagraph requiring the annual LUR
Update is rejected because DENR feels it has an obligation to periodically confirm that measures
put in place via the Agreement to provide for the full protection of public health and the
environment remain in place and are being complied with. After the Agreement is signed and
implemented, this simple letter is the only contact DENR is likely to have with PD or future
owners regarding the Property. Unlike many other state brownfields programs, although the
Agreement gives it the right to do so, the NC program does not have the resources to enter the
property to inspect and ensure compliance with the terms of the Agreement. DENR feels that the
• •
minor inconvenience involved in an owner preparing and submitting a notarized one-page letter
annually is a practical, efficient, and effective method for DENR to obtain the confirmation of
compliance it needs.
Paragraph 1 O.d. -Given that no on-going groundwater monitoring is contemplated by this
Agreement or, to either party's knowledge, by any other DENR agency, in order to close
potential exposure pathways, it will be required that all groundwater monitoring wells or other
points of access to groundwater be properly closed/abandoned.
Paragraph 1 O.e. -Until the requested closure and NFA letter are provided to the Brownfields
Program, it is appropriate that this Paragraph remain in the Agreement. However, as requested,
we have changed the last sentence to read," .... compliance with all applicable UST laws."
Paragraph 10.g. and h.-PD's proposal to delete these subparagraphs is rejected because the
brownfields statute requires, where applicable, ·a statement of the guidelines, including
parameters, principles, and policies within which the desired results of the redevelopment (the
safe reuse of the Property) are to be accomplished, and a statement of the consequences of
achieving or not achieving the desired results. As long as its terms are met, the Agreement will
take precedence over any other DENR agency's enforcement capabilities, including those ofthe
IHSB, insofar as PD's cleanup liability for the known site contaminants is concerned. The fact
that very little is being asked or expected ofPD at this property under this Agreement is spelled
out very clearly. The IHSB guidelines are referenced only so that there is a framework of
guidance, as opposed to rule or statute, in the event real work was required at the site in the
future (e.g. as a result of a re-opener having been triggered).
Paragraph 13-PD's proposal that the Agreement itself not be made an exhibit to the Notice of
Brownfields Property is rejected. It has long since been decided (way before I came into the
Program) that this is the administrative manner in which the brownfields documents will be
assembled and presented for recordation. Additionally, the Agreement is a contract that stands
on its own regardless of what it is attached to. It is attached to the NBP for reference purposes
only, and serves in that capacity to add information about the Property so that anyone becoming
aware of the NBP and who takes the time to read the NBP's exhibits will have a more complete
understanding of the Property in the context of its redevelopment under the brownfields statute.
Paragraph 14-PD's proposal to delete "assignees, successors in interest" from and to add "its"
to the first sentence is accepted. For clarification, a reference to the paragraph in which the
access and cooperation is described has been added to the end of the first sentence. PD's
proposal to add "by Prospective Developer" to the second sentence is also accepted.
Paragraph 16-PD's proposal to delete certification of use reference is rejected because any
change in land use from that intended by PD triggers the need to re-evaluate the level of risk to
public health or the environment, as addressed in statute. The intended land use has been
changed to reflect uses disclosed in the znd paragraph of the Introduction, subject to tqe same
receipt and approval ofPD's request to amend the LOI, accordingly.
• •
Paragraph 17.h.-Subparagraph has been modified to include both statutory and Agreement
references to filing the Notice ofBrownfields Property. ·
Paragraph 21-PD's proposed changes are accepted and have been incorporated.
Paragraph 24-PD's proposed deletion of the bulk of the paragraph is rejected. The paragraph
has been modified to bind PD to the terms and conditions and receive benefits of the Agreement
in the event PD assigns or transfers the Property or an interest therein, unless DENR and PD
agree otherwise and so modify the Agreement. The last sentence has been modified to require
PD to provide DENR with contact information for PD's assignees/transferees.
Paragraph 26-Most ofPD's proposed changes are rejected because they make PD the arbiter
regarding which or whether documents, reports, etc. pertaining to the Property are related to
environmental conditions or redevelopment activities.

Re: Cherokee Mooresville-Environmental Site Assessment and Remedial Action Plan
Dear Mr. Duque:
Please find enclosed the site assessment report for the former Burlington Mills site that we completed to
support site redevelopment under the Brownfield Program. The comprehensive assessment included soil
and groundwater sampling across the site with special attention paid to the areas where hazardous
materials and petroleum products were used. The assessment also included an evaluation of the sensitive
receptors in and around the former mill, and our recommendations on cleanup measures.
In a majority of both the soil and groundwater samples, we found no contamination. Soil contamination
that we believe needs to be addressed was limited to oil staining around some old transformer areas. Low
levels of chlorinated solvents were detected in some groundwater samples, but we believe this will not
pose a threat. Also, a copy of this assessment report and a separate request for No Further Action was
submitted to the UST Section in Mooresville to close a historic outstanding UST incident.
Our recommendations with regard to cleanup measures to make the site safe for reuse are fairly limited
and include the following:
• The remaining coal at the site, the oil/water mixture in the hydraulic jack casings, cooling water
towers and any sludge in wastewater tanks, basins or process lines will either be removed or
decontaminated as necessary during site demolition and renovation.
• The existing pad and pole-mounted transformers will be removed and the soil contamination in
and around the substations will be excavated and disposed.
• The low levels of chlorinated solvent contamination in groundwater will be allowed to naturally
attenuate as there are no drinking water wells in and around the site and there are no present or
expected future impacts to surface water receptors.
Thanks in advance for you help.
Sincerely,
ft-ML ~r!v ~ : -~IJE ~

•
Cherokee Mooresville -Site History
• The property was used for textile manufacturing and is
currently vacant .
• The buildings are of brick construction, with the original mill
dating back to the early 1900s and the most recent
construction occurring in the early 1960s.
• Located on 39 acres of land at 476 South Main Stre~ ~~ Mooresville, in a mixed residential, commercial and irittdstrial
t'Z g.; . section of the town. Site improvements include 1.3 million ~fJ(J ~"7 0~ ~:~/'square feet of mill buildings and supporting facilities. ~ 4-r 0~ x@. ro #yYifi . cy~ ;Y • The mill manufactured cotton yarn and denim products from 0.-A. approximately 1900 to 1999. The operations consisted of
~ · cotton weaving, dyeing, and finishing.
. '
•
Cherokee Mooresville -Pre-Closing Due
Diligence
• Significant quantity of asbestos in the mill buildings. The
estimated cost to remove and dispose of it is $1.2 -$1.4 mm .
• Besides the asbestos --relatively benign environmental
record -occasionally exceeded wastewater limits and one
leaking fuel oil tank--no other reported releases or incidents
under federal or related state environmental regulations.
• No record that landfilling or other types of on-site waste e disposal, and the plant was categorized as a small-quantity
hazardous wastes generator at the time of its closing.
• Water intensive manufacturing, but not chemical intensive.
.,
..
•
•
Cherokee Mooresville -Pre-Closing Due
Diligence·
• A Phase I Environmental Site Assessment ("ESA") was
completed by IT Corporation July 2000, concluded that soil
and groundwater beneath the Burlington Mill property could
be contaminated-extent unknown.
• Normally, Phase I ESA would be followed by a Phase II ESA
that includes soil and groundwater testing to further evaluate
environmental conditions. However, Burlington Industries
was unwilling to allow further assessment prior to sale .
• Before purchase, Cherokee reviewed all available records,
interviewed regulators and conducted a receptor survey that
showed no receptors, e.g. drinking water wells, in the vicinity
of the Property.
. '
. '
•
•
Cherokee Mooresville -Pre-Closing Due
Diligence
• Cherokee identified 17 potential problem areas at the site:
tanks, laboratories, PCB transformers, chemical storage
areas, etc ....
• For each area, conducted a statistical analysis to determine
potential cleanup costs and likelihood they would be
incurred.
• Estimated that cleanup could cost from $2.2 mm to in excess
of $7 mm -with the most likely costs of approximately $2.9
mm.
• Analysis provided us with the information to underwrite the
purchase and to obtain environmental insurance.
. '
•
•
Cherokee Mooresville -Post-closing
Site Assessment
• After closing -completed comprehensive
assessment of the property -24 soil borings and
12 monitoring wells -analyses for petroleum,
heavy metals, VOCs, and PCBs.
• Re-evaluating extent of asbestos and planning
abatement .
• Planning partial site demolition to include
environmental cleanup as needed.
•
Cherokee Mooresville -Assessment
Results and Remedial Action Plan
• Complete asbestos abatement --$1.2 -$1.4 mm .
• Remove contaminated soils around transformers.
• Incorporate any needed cleanup of hydraulic lifts,
process tanks and equipment during demolition.
e • Limited subsurface soil and groundwater
contamination - 2 of 11 wells have low levels of
chlorinated VOC contamination, no widespread
contamination in soil -low levels of some metals.
·' !
Cherokee Mooresville -Assessment
Results and Remedial Action Plan
• Contamination above 2L drinking water standards e in two wells but below industrial/commercial
cleanup standards -no drinking water use in area
-candidate for natural attenuation.
•
• Incorporate cleanup plans into Brownfields
Agreement.

This letter is intended to provide the North Carolina Department of Environment and
Natural Resources (NCDENR) notification of subsurface assessment activities recently
performed at the site in June 2001. The objective of these assessment activities was
to evaluate the presence of potential groundwater and soil contamination attributable
to previous site operations and potential off-site sources. Site activities are being
performed under a Brownfields Agreement with the NCDENR, Superfund Section.
The Brownfields project manager for the state is Mr. Tony Duque in the Raleigh
NCDENR office. Prior to the recent site assessment activities, a receptor survey was
performed and no water-supply wells were found within a one-quarter mile radius of
the subject site.
Groundwater laboratory analytical results from the assessment indicate volatile
organic compounds were detected in water samples collected from three of twelve
monitoring wells installed on site (7. 1 ug/L 1 ,2,4-trimethyll:ienzene in MW-7,-23 ug/L

Reeeptor Survey and Review of Environmental Ineidents
Burlington Industries -1\looresville, North Carolina
Trigon Project No. 360-01-007
In accordance with your request, Trigon Engineering Consultants, Inc. perfonned a receptor survey of the
Burlington Industries facility in Mooresville, North Carolina. The survey included evaluating for the
presence of sensitive receptors, including, for example, water supply wells, loeotcd within a l ,500-foot
radius from the Burlington Jndustries property (See Figure 1 for Area). Jn addition to the survey, we
discussed environmental aspects of the operation of the facility with Town of Mooresville officials,
including the wastewater pretreatment coordinator.
We found no lmown sensitive receptors within l,SOO feet of the Burlington Jndustrics facility. Th= are
no apparent private or public water supply wells in the vicinity of the plant site, or other sensitive
receptors. The Town of Mooresville has provided public water to the area and all homes in the vicinity of
the plant were reportedly connected to the public system at the time of their construction.
, The Town of Mooresville officials indicated, with the exception of two caustic spills in the early 1990's,
that they were aware of no environmental incidents, repOrted releases or improper chemical handling at
the Burlington plant.

Trigon performed a vehicle reconnaissance of the surrounding neighborhoods for evidence of town water
meters, well houses and surface waters. Trigon also reviewed maps of the nearest public water lines to
these neiBhborhoods.
Trigon representative Ch.arles Wilkins mobilized to the site on December 19, 2001 to perform the
receptor survey. Prior the vehicle reconnaissance, Town of Mooresville water supply line maps were
revie">ved at Mr. Shuler's ofilce. Mr. Shuler indicated that these water lines were installed at the time the
residential homes were constructed, and that all of the residential homes and light commercial facilities
witlrln the ll!"ea identified on Figure 1 are supplied with Wllter from the Town of Mooresville. Additional
maps were obtained and reviewed at the Town of Mooresville Planning. Zoning and Engineering
Department It should be noted that this is not an exhaustive survey and is not intended to wholly
eliminate the presence of possible receptors.
Vehicle Reconnaissance
Following review of the appropriate maps, Trigon performed a vehicle reconnaissance of the property
sUITOIUlding Burlington Industries. No wells were obs~rved in this neighborhood. Water meters and fire
hydrants were observed in the residential areas around the Burlington Industries facility.
Lewis Williams at 514 Ridge Street indicated that he does not know of any wells in the area and that he
and his neighbors are on Town of Mooresville water. Trigon observed a decorative well house at the
Shoemaker residence located at 527 Ridge Street. According to Jack Benton at 547 Ridge Street,
neighbor of the Shocmnker residence, the well house is for decorative purposes and there is no well
present. Mr. Benton also stated that he has lived in the neighborhood since the 1960's and he l<nows of
no wells in the area. An apparent decorative hand purnp was observed on Ridge Street next door to 524.
No house number was present ond there did not appear to be a well present. An additional decorative
· pump was observed nt the Sherills' residence at 214 Pressley Strcci. According to Sam Corey at 114
East Pressley, no known wells are present in the area. According to Betty Burton at 823 Caldwell Street,
no known wells arc present in the area. No other evidence of water supply wells was observed during the
vehicle reconnaissance.

CONTACT REPORT
NCDENR MOORESVILLE REGIONAL OFFICE
Date:
MRO Contact:
November 29, 2001
Ms. Amber Lindon
Jeffrey Tyburski Mid-Atlantic Contact:
Subject: Incomplete Limited Site Assessment, Phase I LSA
Report, Cherokee-Mooresville Site
Summary: Ms. Lindon was contacted regarding their November 19, 2001 letter
that provided comments on the Phase I Limited Site Assessment (LSA) report for
the site. Ms. Lindon provided the following comments about the deficiencies noted
in their letter:
1) The Type II monitoring well (MW-7} is not located in the source area:
Guidelines for Assessment and Corrective Action, page 4-11, requires the
construction of one Type II monitoring well in the source area. Ms. Lindon
was informed that there were no maps or drawings that provided the exact
locations of the USTs at the site at the time assessment activities were
conducted and that Burlington Industries provided this information after field
activities had been completed. Despite this technicality, she understands that
Type II well MW-7 is located downgradient of the former UST area and is
representative of site conditions. Ms. Lindon said she understands that the
level of effort assessing site conditions for the Brownfields Program has been
considerable and that she understands frustrations regarding the relative
inflexibility of UST Program rules compared to Brownfield Program rules.
They do not have flexibility to make special cases to circumvent UST rules ·
and that the installation of an additional well in the former UST area will
remain a requirement. The high visibility of this project also appears to be a
factor in their decision-making.
2} The Waste Oil UST on the Other Side of the Property is a Separate Source
Area and Needs to be Investigated: Ms Lindon was informed that previous
assessment activities conducted by Spatco for this UST did not indicate the
presence of contamination and that a Type II well installed downgradient of ~ AI(' .--r-'/ the former location of this tank did not indicate the presence of
,1 r' contamination. Ms. Lindon replied that the analytical method used to analyze 'i~ the UST closure soil sample was not approved by the NCDENR at the time
~+ .. ..... the work was completed. Additionally, the laboratory detection limit for the
tJ 0 :. 0 r soil sample analysis was elevated ( 1 00 ppm). Ms. Lindon responded that the • ;J "...A installation of one soil boring at the former UST location for the collection of
t"'6 h~oof t soil samples in accordance with UST Guidelines would be sufficient.
~Ms. Lindon Stated that they would be willing to provide flexibility regarding the
r "'-11 'L submittal of this information with 60 days as long as they are informed that J ""'vJ-appropriate action is being taken.

RE: Incomplete Limited Site Assessment Report
Dear Mr. Gallagher:
Former Burlington Mills Site
476 South Main Street
Mooresville, Iredell County
Incident# 8171
November 19,2001
The Underground Storage Tank (UST) Section of the Division of Waste Management at the
Mooresville Regional Office (MRO) has received the Limited Site Assessment (LSA) report for the subject
site. The report is currently incomplete and Will remain on file at the MRO. Prior to additional review, the
report must include the information requested.
In particular, the following deficiencies were noted:
I. The LSA monitoring well must be located in the source area of contamination. MW -7 appears
to be about 75 feet away from the source area (former gasoline, varsol, diesel ,waste oil tank
pit). Please be advised, if contaminant concentrations detected in the source area monitoring
well exceed the groundwater standards or interim standards established under !SA NCAC 21
.0202 by a facto['_ often, a Phase II LSA will be required.
2. During source area monitoring well construction, soil samples must be collected for
laboratory analysis at five foot intervals between the land surface and the water table. If the
water table is encountered at a depth greater than 25 feet from the land surface, soil samples
should be collected at I 0 foot intervals between the land surface and the water table.
3. The waste oil tank pit on the other side of the property is a separate source area and needs to
be investigated. Complete a LSA (as described above) for this source area.
