(Cedar Rock) is pleased to submit this report describing activities and results for the in -place abandonment of the onsite UST located at 2136 Bay Street in Charlotte, North Carolina. The UST abandonment was performed on March 2, 2020. Included in this report are project documents consisting of a disposal manifest and photographic documentation. This report should be kept with other documents pertaining to the residential property. Soil contamination was detected beneath the UST during a site inspection performed on February 19, 2020. The release was reported to the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) using a UST-61 form on February 21, 2020. Although the State no longer requires further assessment of the contamination, the State does require the filing of a Notice of Residual Petroleum (NRP) prior to conveying the property to another party. The NRP includes land use restrictions prohibiting any disturbance of site soils within a specified radius of the estimated extent of soil contamination and prohibits the use or installation of any water supply wells on the property. Cedar Rock filed the NRP on March 2, 2020. The DEQ will issue a Conditional Notice of No Further Action (NFA) letter within the next few days. Upon receipt of proof that the local officials and adjacent property owners have been notified of the release by receiving a copy of the Conditional NFA letter, and that the NRP has been filed, the DEQ will reissue the NFA letter with no conditions to officially close out the petroleum release incident. Enclosed is an invoice for this work effort. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact meat 336-376-0394. Thank you for your consideration of Cedar Rock to provide you with this service. Sincerely, Robert A. Payne,"L.G.

Payne, L.G Geologist ii 1.0 INTRODUCTION Cedar Rock Environmental, P.C. (Cedar Rock) was contacted by Ms. Deborah McRae of Charlotte, North Carolina to abandon in -place an underground storage tank (UST) located at 2136 Bay Street in Charlotte, North Carolina. The UST was first inspected on February 19, 2020. An inactive UST was observed to be located parallel to and centered approximately 4.5 feet off the northwestern foundation wall and about 8.4 feet northeast of the western corner of the original foundation of the house (not the addition). The fill and vent pipes of the UST were observed to be intact. The depth to the top of the UST is approximately 26 inches below land surface (bls) on the northeastern end and about 22 inches bls on the southwestern end. The UST has a length of about 93.5 inches with a diameter of approximately 42.5 inches and a capacity of about 575 gallons. The UST was measured to contain approximately 471 gallons of fluid. White flagging was used to mark the ends of the UST. No other USTs on the property were discovered using a metal detector to survey the outside perimeter of the residence where USTs are usually located. Two copper fuel delivery/return lines with an inline oil filter were observed extending about 20 feet into the basement where they were cut and crimped at the former furnace location. No petroleum odors or stains were observed in the basement. Once the orientation of the UST was determined, a soil boring was performed at the southwestern end of the UST using a 3.25-inch diameter stainless steel hand auger. The soil boring was advanced to a depth of approximately 5.4 feet bls, near the bottom of the UST. The borehole was not advanced farther as a result of water entering the borehole. A strong petroleum odor and discoloration was observed in the soils from a depth of approximately 5.0 to 5.4 feet bls suggesting significant leakage from the UST has occurred. The soils at the base of the boring consist of a grayish orangish brown micaceous sandy silt. 2.0 PROJECT The in -place abandonment of the UST was performed on March 2, 2020. The abandonment consisted of the hand excavation of the soils overlying the northeastern end of the UST to expose the topside of the tank. A hole approximately 1.5 feet in diameter was then cut on the top of the UST to allow for removal of the tank contents, cleaning and visual inspection of the UST interior, and subsequent filling. The tank was pressure washed to remove all residual petroleum sludge. Residual oil in the fuel lines was also removed by vacuum. The fuel lines were partially removed from the crawlspace, being cut and crimped where they went below grade. Approximately 491 gallons of fluid and sludge (including rinsate) were removed from the UST. The fluid disposal manifest for the tank contents is included in Appendix A. After the interior of the UST was cleaned, the tank was then entirely filled with an excavatable flowable fill cement slurry. Once filled, the exposed portion of the UST was then covered with site soils (see Appendix B - Photographic Documentation).
