However, pending results of future sampling and mitigation measures conducted in accordance with the most current version of theNC DEQ Brownfields Program Methane Assessment Protocol (September 2020), additional future uses, including data-supported prospective buildings associated with additional uses beyond those outlined in this LUR 1 may be allowed with prior written Department of Environmental Quality (“DEQ”) approval and in accordance with the most current version of the NC DEQ Brownfields Program Threshold Criteria for Methane Site Development. For purposes of this restriction, the following definitions apply: Recreation defined as outdoor only exercise-related, physically focused, or leisure-related activities, whether active or passive, outdoor sports-related courts and fields, open space, greenways, parks, playgrounds, walking paths, and picnic and public open air gathering areas.

In complianceOut of compliance Remarks: No use of the Brownfields Property other than recreational and billboard advertising use as outlined in LUR 1 above is allowed until a work plan for the installation and sampling of methane concentration and pressure screening points in accordance with the most current version of the NC DEQ Brownfields Program Methane Assessment Protocol (September 2020), is submitted for written DEQ review and approval. Sampling shall be completed and results submitted to DEQ for evaluation of appropriate placement of site features to ensure adequate protection of exposure to site contaminants. If subsurface pressure generation is found onsite at readings at or above those cited in the most current version of the NC DEQ Brownfields Program Methane Threshold Criteria, no use of the Brownfields Property shall occur until such time as mitigation measures to the written satisfaction of DEQ are instituted, or future monitoring/remedial efforts establishes that pressure has attenuated to acceptable levels under the Methane Threshold Criteria referenced above.
