respect to permanently surveyed benchmarks.

construction activities. Following the warehousing activities, the
building was unoccupied until 2009, then used as a semi -truck
repair facility by East Side Truck Repair (2010 through at least
January 2020.
Current
Operations/Activities
Construction activities for the redevelopment activities.
Soil: Both C9-C18 and C9-C12 aliphatics and CII-C22 aromatic
petroleum hydrocarbons were detected above their respective DEQ
Preliminary Soil Remediation Goals (PSRGs) for industrial/
commercial settings. The remaining contaminant of concern (COC)
detected in onsite soil was p-Cymene (p-Isopropyltoluene) and
there is not an established PSRG for this compound.
In 2020, five samples (SB-1 through SB-5) were collected for
additional soil screening related to excavation activities completed
north of the truck repair building in the area of a previous
aboveground storage tank (AST). The petroleum contaminated soil
was excavated, except for an area in close proximity to the building
slab. This remaining contaminated soil was subsequently removed

under a DEQ-approved EMP.
Groundwater: Tetrachloroethylene (PCE) was identified above its
NC 2L groundwater standard in groundwater wells within the
footprint and downgradient of the repair building. Methylene
chloride and chromium were also detected above their respective
NC 2L standards in groundwater.
The planned hotel building will be located on the eastern portion
of the Brownfields Property, which is upgradient and outside of
the known extent of the onsite groundwater contamination plume.
The planned use of the PCE impacted groundwater area includes a
parking lot and landscaped areas.

procedures, laboratory testing, Brownfields Program requirements, and remedial or mitigation
measures):
Section;
a. the Guidelines of the Inactive Hazardous Sites Branch of DEQ's Superfund

reasonable efforts to evaluate applying sustainability principles at the Brownfields Property,
using the nine (9) credit categories incorporated into the U.S. Green Building Council
Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification program (Integrative
Process, Location and Transportation, Sustainable Sites, Water Efficiency, Energy &
Atmosphere, Materials & Resources, Indoor Environmental Quality, Innovation, and Regional

contamination detected during assessment activities as outlined in paragraphs 3 and 4 above,
vapor intrusion exposure routes do not appear to present a risk to site occupants of the planned
hotel building. Therefore, the condition of subparagraph 13.g. below has been met for the
redevelopment uses set forth in paragraph 13.a. below.

East Side Truck Service /25009-21-026/8November2022
OKI1642 P60529
writing if additional contaminants in excess of applicable standards are discovered at the
Brownfields Property, may be used or stored at the Brownfields Property without the prior

accurately disclosed to DEQ all information known to Prospective Developer and all information
in the possession or control of its officers, directors, employees, contractors and agents which

it not have caused or contributed to the contamination at the Brownfields Property.
XI. DEO'S COVENANT NOT TO SUE AND RESERVATION OF RIGHTS
22. Unless any of the following apply, Prospective Developer shall not be liable to DEQ,
and DEQ covenants not to sue Prospective Developer, for remediation of the Brownfields
Property except as specified in this Agreement:
a. The Prospective Developer fails to comply with this Agreement.
b. The activities conducted on the Brownfields Property by or under the control
or direction of the Prospective Developer increase the risk of harm to public health or the

necessary to eliminate such risk of harm to public health or the environment.
c. A land use restriction set out in the Notice of Brownfields Property required
20
East Side Truck Service /25009-21-026/8November2022
OKI 1642 P60534
under NCGS § 130A-310.35 is violated while the Prospective Developer owns the Brownfields
Property, in which case the Prospective Developer shall be responsible for remediation of the
Brownfields Property to unrestricted use standards.

that formed a basis for this Agreement or knowingly or recklessly offers false information to
demonstrate compliance with this Agreement or fails to disclose relevant information about
contamination at the Brownfields Property.

contaminants or an area of previously unreported contamination on or associated with the
Brownfields Property that has not been remediated to unrestricted use standards, unless this
Agreement is amended to include any previously unreported contaminants and any additional
areas of contamination. If this Agreement sets maximum concentrations for contaminants, and
new information indicates the existence of previously unreported areas of these contaminants,
further remediation shall be required only if the areas of previously unreported contaminants
raise the risk of the contamination to public health or the environment to a level less protective of
public health and the environment than that required by this Agreement.
f. The level of risk to public health or the environment from contaminants is
unacceptable at or in the vicinity of the Brownfields Property due to changes in exposure
conditions, including (i) a change in land use that increases the probability of exposure to
contaminants at or in the vicinity of the Brownfields Property or (ii) the failure of remediation to
mitigate risks to the extent required to make the Brownfields Property fully protective of public
health and the environment as planned in this Agreement.
21
East Side Truck Service /25009-21-026/8November2022

range and in a manner or to a degree not anticipated in this Agreement.
h. The Prospective Developer fails to file a timely and proper Notice of
Brownfields Property under NCGS § 130A-310.35.
23. Except as may be provided herein, DEQ reserves its rights against Prospective
Developer as to liabilities beyond the scope of the Act.

license or certification, or to comply with any and all other applicable law, including the North
Carolina Environmental Policy Act, NCGS § I I3A-1, et seq.
