NORTH CAROLINA BROWNFIELDS PROGRAM
ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN
This form is to be used to prepare an Environmental Management Plan (EMP) for projects in
the North Carolina Brownfields Program at the direction of a Brownfields project manager.
The EMP is a typical requirement of a Brownfields Agreement (BFA). Its purpose is to clarify
actions to be taken during the demolition and construction at Brownfields properties in an
effort to avoid delays in the event of the discovery of new contamination sources or other
environmental conditions. The EMP provides a means to document redevelopment plans and
environmental data for each applicable environmental medium to inform regulatory -compliant
decision -making at the site. As much detail as possible should be included in the EMP,
including contingency planning for unknowns. Consult your project manager if you have
questions.
Prospective Developers and/or their consultants must complete and submit this form and all
pertinent attachments, see checklist below, to their Brownfields project manager prior to any
earthmoving or other development -related activities that have the potential to disturb soil at
the Brownfields Property, including demolition. For the resultant EMP to be valid for use, it
must be completed, reviewed by the program, signed by all parties working on the project,
and approved by the Brownfields project manager. Failure to comply with the requirements of
the EMP could jeopardize project eligibility, or in the event of a completed agreement, be
cause for a reopener
So that the EMP provides value in protecting brownfields eligibility and public health, the
preparer shall ensure that the following steps have been completed prior to submitting the
EMP for review. Any EMP prepared without completing these steps is premature.
® Site sampling and assessment that meets Brownfields' objectives is complete and has
been reviewed and approved by the Brownfields Project Manager.
® Specific redevelopment plans, even if conceptual, have been developed for the project,
submitted and reviewed by the Brownfields Project Manager.
EMP Version 2, June 2018

Please submit, along with the completed EMP form, the following attachments, as relevant
and applicable to the proposed redevelopment:
® A set of redevelopment plans, including architectural/engineering plans, if available; if
not conceptual plans may suffice if updated when detailed plans are drafted.
❑ A figure overlaying redevelopment plans on a map of the extent of contamination for
each media.
❑ Site grading plans that include a cut and fill analysis.
❑ A figure showing the proposed location and depth of impacted soil that would remain
on site after construction grading.
❑ Any necessary permits for redevelopment (i.e. demolition, etc.).
® A detailed construction schedule that includes timing and phases of construction.
® Tabulated data summaries for each impacted media (i.e. soil, groundwater, soil gas,
etc.) applicable to the proposed redevelopment.
® Figures with the sampling locations and contamination extents for each impacted media
applicable to the proposed redevelopment.
❑ A full final grade sampling and analysis plan, if the redevelopment plan is final.
❑ If known, information about each proposed potential borrow soil source, such as aerial
photos, historic site maps, historic Sanborn maps, a site history, necessary for
brownfields approval.
❑ Information and, analytical data if required, for quarries, or other borrow sources,
detailing the type of material proposed for importation to the Brownfields Property.
❑ A work plan for the sampling and analysis of soil to be brought onto the Brownfields
Property. Refer to Issue Resolution 15 in Brownfields Program Guidelines.
❑ A map of the Brownfields Property showing the location of soils proposed for export
and sampling data from those areas.
❑ If a Vapor Mitigation System is required by the Brownfields Program, the Vapor
Intrusion Mitigation System (VIMS) plan will be signed and sealed by a NC Professional
Engineer. The VIMS Plan may also be submitted under separate cover.

3) Summary of Redevelopment Plans (MANDATORY: attach detailed plans or conceptual plans, if
detailed plans are not available. EMP review without such information would be premature):
Provide brief summary of redevelopment plans, including demolition, removal of building
slabs/pavement, grading plans and planned construction of new structures:
The site currently consists of 2 non-contiguous properties. The west tract contains an asphalt-
4
EMP Version 2, June 2018

paved parking lot, stormwater feature, and sea wall. The sea wall has been demolished under a
separate EMP (20 October 2020). The east tract is an unpaved/vacant lot that currently contains
a soil stockpile.
Proposed redevelopment of the Brownfields Property by the PD includes the construction of
two, multi -story, mixed -use buildings for no uses other than multi -family residential or retail with
associated parking and periphery landscaping and greenspace. Asphalt removal and utility
abandonment is planned for May 2021 followed by grading and earthwork through January
2022.
Site grading will be performed in a phased approach for each of the two building areas. Work
will begin in the vicinity of proposed Building 1 (West Tract) and move east to Building 2 (East
Tract). During grading activities, soil may be temporarily stored in a designated stockpile area
(see Erosion Control Plans in Exhibit A) on the Brownfields Property, in accordance with Figure 1
NCBP Diagram for Temporary Containment of Impacted or Potentially Impacted Soil. Tree and
other vegetative cover are planned for disposal at a Land Clearing and Inert Debris (LCID) facility.
Current redevelopment grading plans indicate the Site is a net import site and that it is unlikely
that soil will need to be exported off -site for disposal. If needed, soil will be exported to a nearby
Brownfields site or to New Hanover County landfill. As needed, soil will be imported from 421 Sand
Mine, LLC, a previously approved borrow source, with additional testing and approval from
NCDEQ.

CONTINGENCY PLAN — encountering unknown tanks, drums, or other waste materials
In this section please provide actions that will be taken to identify or manage unknown
potential new sources of contamination. During redevelopment activities, it is not uncommon
that unknown tanks, drums, fuel lines, landfills, or other waste materials are encountered.
Notification to DEQ Brownfields Project Manager, UST Section, Fire Department, and/or other
officials, as necessary and appropriate, is required when new potential source(s) of
contamination are discovered. These Notification Requirements were outlined on Page 1 of this
EMP.
Should potentially impacted materials be identified that are inconsistent with known site
impacts, the DEQ Brownfields Project Manager will be notified and a sampling plan will be
prepared based on the EMP requirements and site -specific factors. Samples will generally be
collected to document the location of the potential impacts.
Check the following chemical analysis that are to be conducted on newly identified releases:
® Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) by EPA Method 8260
® Semi -volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) by EPA Method 8270
® Metals RCRA List (8) (arsenic, barium, cadmium, chromium, mercury, lead, selenium and

Please note, if field observations indicate the need for additional analyses, they should
be conducted, even if not listed here.
Please provide details on the proposed methods of managing the following commonly
encountered issues during redevelopment of Brownfields Properties.
Click or tap here to enter text.
Underground Storage Tanks:
If a UST is encountered Clancy and Theys will inform Geosyntec and Geosyntec will contact NCDEQ.
Sub -Grade Feature/Pit:
If a pit or feature is encountered, it will be removed or filled with soil or suitable fill and
construction will proceed. DEQ will be notified. If the pit has waste in it, waste will be set aside in a
secure area and sampled for waste disposal purposes for TCLP VOCs, TCLP SVOCs, and TCLP metals
and disposed off -site at a permitted facility.
Buried Waste Material:
Buried waste will be stockpiled as shown on Figure 1 and characterized as shown above. Geosyntec
will review the materials and collect samples if warranted. If sampling is warranted, confirmation
soil samples will be conducted at representative locations in the base of the sidewalls of the
excavation after the waste or significantly impacted soil is removed. The confirmation samples will
be analyzed for VOCs, SVOCs, and RCRA 8 Metals. If acceptable, removed waste will be disposed of
at New Hanover County landfill or another appropriately permitted facility.
Re -Use of Impacted Soils On -Site:
Soil will be replaced in trenches unless obvious signs of contamination are observed. Impacted soil
will be stockpiled as shown on Figure 1 and characterized as indicated above and be disposed of at
another Brownfields property and/or landfill following approval from NCBP.
If unknown, impacted soil is identified on -site, management on -site can be considered after the
project team provides the necessary information, outlined in Part LA. Item 11, for Brownfields
Project Manager approval prior to final placement on -site.
If other potential contingency plans are pertinent, please provide other details or scenarios as

POST -REDEVELOPMENT REPORTING
® Check this box to acknowledge that a Redevelopment Summary Report will be required for the
project. If the project duration is longer than one year, an annual update is required and will be due
by January 31 of each year, or 30 days after each one-year anniversary of the effective date of this
EMP (as agreed upon with the Project Manager). These reports will be required for as long as
physical redevelopment of the Brownfields Property continues, except that the final Redevelopment
Summary Report will be submitted within 90 days after completion of redevelopment. Based on the
estimated construction schedule, the first Redevelopment SummaryReport is anticipated to be
submitted on within 30-days after each one-year anniversary of the
effective date of this EMP or 60-days following completion of final grading activities, whichever is
earlier.
The Redevelopment Summary Report shall include environment -related activities since the last
report, with a summary and drawings, that describes:
1. actions taken on the Brownfields Property;
2. soil grading and cut and fill actions;
3. methodology(ies) employed for field screening, sampling and laboratory analysis of
environmental media;
4. stockpiling, containerizing, decontaminating, treating, handling, laboratory analysis and
ultimate disposition of any soil, groundwater or other materials suspected or confirmed
to be contaminated with regulated substances; and
5. removal of any contaminated soil, water or other contaminated materials (for example,
concrete, demolition debris) from the Brownfields Property (copies of all legally required
manifests shall be included).
