Additional monitoring wells were installed in 1997 on the state and county property outside of the landfill. The purpose of these wells was to improve groundwater monitoring. Since the new wells were located outside of the landfill, the soil from the drilling was not contaminated. As a precaution, however, the soils from the wells closest to the landfill fence were analyzed for PCBs and pesticides. The results shown in the attached table confirm that the soil does not contain toxic materials. I hope this answers your questions concerning the contents of these drums.

Box 587 Raleigh, NC 27602-0587 Attn: M. Anne Runheim (919) 828-1396 phone (919) 828-7993 fax Dear Ms. Runheim, This is to confirm our telephone and e-mail communications of last week. As you will recall, my letter of August 12 set a deadline under which "Kearneco/Safran will provide to Shaw for receipt not later than 5 pm on Friday August 23 either an acceptance of Shaw's offer of April 24 or a counteroffer to be accompanied by such documentation as Kearneco/Safran chooses to provide in support of that counteroffer. If nothing is received by that time Shaw will consider the request for disputed funds as withdrawn by Kearneco, in which case payment of the undisputed July 16 invoice shall constitute full and final payment against this subcontract and purchase order." In our subsequent telephone conversation you agreed that the August 23 date was reasonable and indicated that you would submit a counteroffer with supporting documentation by that date. Early on the morning of August 22 you left a voicemail message stating that you were being called out of town unexpectedly on business but still intended to respond for receipt by the end of Monday, August 26 . When nothing was received on August 26 I called you on August 27 to ask the reason. You replied to the effect that Paul Kearney had provided you with so much documentation that it was impractical to fax it so it had to be mailed. It was my understanding, apparently faulty, that the package either had already been mailed or would be later that day. On the morning of August 28 you left a voicemail message to the effect that it would take you at least until Friday, August 30 to prepare a cover letter that would adequately explain the documentation, which had not yet been sent. I was en route from the project site in North Carolina that morning and called your office that afternoon as soon as I arrived in Trenton, NJ and received your message. Shaw Environmental & Infrastructure, Inc. You were not in your office when I called, so I left a message that the additional delay was not acceptable, especially if the quality of the documentation was such that it would take you three days to organize it and draft an adequate cover letter. Therefore, by refusing to grant a further extension, and having received no written response from Safran/Kearnco by the August 23 deadline, then in accordance with the terms of my letter of August 12, Shaw considers the request for disputed funds as withdrawn by Kearneco, in which case payment of the undisputed July 16 invoice shall constitute full and final payment against this subcontract and purchase order. The settlement offer proposed by Shaw in my letter of April 24, having not been accepted by the August 23 deadline, is also withdrawn . Kearneco's invoice dated July 16, for $16,112.43, has been entered in Shaw's accounts payable system. In accordance with the net 60 day payment terms of their purchase order the system has generated an issue date of September 14 for a check to meet this invoice. As that is a Saturday I anticipate that the check will be cut either Friday or Monday and in either case should be mailed early in the week of September 16. On August 29, you sent me an e-mail in which you stated that you would send our attorney a demand for arbitration. That demand, as weil as any other future correspondence regarding this matter should be sent to: Shaw Environmental & Infrastructure, Inc. 2790 Mosside Boulevard Monroeville, PA 15146-2792 Attn: Mr. S.

A Claim Under Payment Bond is enclosed. Vulcan sold and delivered goods and materials to Paul D. Kearney, Sr., d/b/a Keameco Grading ("Keameco") for use on the Project. The principal balance due and owing to Vulcan by Keameco as of March 31, 2002 is $4,596.07. Interest owed as of March 31, 2002 is $152.25. Interest continues to accrue on the principal balance due at the rate of 1 ½% per month, which is $2.26 per day. Neither this letter nor the Claim is an attempt to collect a debt from The IT Group, Inc., but rather is merely notice of Vulcan's claim against the surety pursuant to the Payment Bond.

In detail: item 3 -IT acknowledges state pay plus 7 day requirement, especially on undisputed amounts, onl y bankruptcy proceedings could possibly take precedence and won't likely do so as long as IT sale goes through. There was a $10,000 issue on his invoice where he tried to get paid for CO work he had never even submitted, he now has reduced that claim to $5,500 and has errors in his support for even that amount. We do not and will never owe him interest on that, he had no business invoicing it when he did. item 4 -I don't know that anyone advised him to sign letter. It's probabl y academic since it doesn't directly affect his payment. In addition, as an independent subcontractor he was free to reject anyone's advice or requests, you certainly did not and could not have directed him since you do not have a contract with him. item 8 - I am also unclear on his reference, think it had to do with a minor design change that came back from state permitting authority through Aiken & Ye lle. It was not DENR, at l east not in the sense that you are the client, so you have no liability there. If it was a permit issue it is an IT/Kearney problem since IT was doing design/build. I still need to reply to him but am tied up on other issues and s till need to research a couple of his new points. -----Original Message----- From: Pat Backus [mailto :Pat.Backus@ncmail.net] Sent: Monday, April 01, 2002 11:18 AM To: Duke, Gary Subjec t: Letter from Paul Gary, I was reviewing the letter from Paul Kearney (March 21 , 2002) again. On the whole it is really IT's predicament. However, on some items where he mentions the state and the owner and has sent this letter to several people, I have to make a few comments. Item 3 -Interest payments on unpaid invoices -Interest is supposed to be based on the date the state paid IT for work completed plus seven days. That seems pretty straight forward. I assume the problem deals with the receipt o f an acceptable invoice with the proper supporting informati on . I can send Paul Kearney a copy of the articles from the contract which address this if necessary. I'm sure that in addition to the dat~ there has to be something that states that the contractor bears some re-sponsibility for ensuring the subcontractor did the work he invoices. An extreme example of this might be fraud. I have to believe that this has been addressed. Also, as you have mentioned before, you can't calculate this amount until a payment is made. If this continues to be an issue, I would suggest you call state Construction for advice on how to handle . Item 4 -Grading -Paul Kearney states that "KEARNECO Grading has received several request to sign this letter by the contractor and the owner of the project." I don't recall ever advising him to sign. I don't know of any other DENR personnel who adv ised him to sign the letter. Was the state unhappy with the progress on the grading? Yes. I am sure that is ,,,. documented somewhere. Did IT inform us of how they wished to work with KEARNECO v ia this agreement to get on schedule and did it seem reasonable to u s? Yes. In any event, I don't see how delivery of the letter and discussion of his decision to sign is a justification for payment of work. Item 8 -Delay Time -Paul Kearney states that "Further delay is realized in MEETING MINUTES dated 2 Oct 01, ... changes in water main by the State." Again, I'm not sure who he means by "State." As this tends to imply the "State" was responsible for some of his delay time or possibly notification to him. I wish I knew more. I seem to remember problems in getting schedules coordinated on all sides. Thanks, Pat FROM : PDKEARNE''r' FAX NO. :2522579411 Mar . 22 2002 08:03AM Pl ,,.

Please find the · documentation as fol1ows: ITEM #1 AND ITEM #2 DEMOB and REMOB Reference letter to your attention dated 19 Feb 02 the cited justification is in order. KEARNECO Grading was directed by Inten1ational Technology (LT.) per Gary Duke, project manage via Bill Gallagher, site manager to cease all operations as defined in purchase order #17087 fo r the convenience ofI.T. KEARNECO Grading gave notice to I.T. per MEETING MINUTES dated 17 Sept. 01, that the water line would progress in its completion entering the project site not later than 26 Sept. 01 (Line item #2). By the close of business on 25 Sept. 01, KEARNECO Grading had installed approximately forty (40) foet of six (6) inch water line inside the perimeter fence at the Warren County Site. Upon achieving this task, facilitated by combined grading and utility crews, LT. was forced to take evasive measures. KEARNECO Grading was penalized per the MEETING MINUTES dated 26 Sept. 01 in which J.T. via BUI Gallagher d.irects KEARNECO Grading to delay cor.struction of the water line. Cited MEETING MINUTES also directs suspension of all construction until 15 Oct. O 1. I.T. gave KEARNECO Grading no prior notice of pending construction suspension. Personnel, supplies, equipment (leased and inventoried), necessitated demobilization to maintain cost effectiveness. Some personnel were laid oft~ supply items were compromised, lease equipment was returned and relocated to maintain productivity. These activities were costly and were borne internally by KEARNECO Grading.

Su~ject letter was out o f order in that it was HAND DELIVERED. The letter depicts an endorsement by Paul D. Kearney on 13 Sept 01. This is misleading, MEETING MINUTES dated 17 Sept 01 reflects, subject letter had not been endorsed by KEARNECO Grading according to response Item #3 under OTHER . ~ ISSUES. We were uncomfortable with the letter and had been advised not to ~ . endorse. KEARNECO Grading had rec~ived se:eral request to sign this ~ 12i~ letter by the contractor and the owner of the pro1ect to reflect a 13 Sept 0 1 ~-~ ~? date. After being presented with a scenario of sign the letter or lose ---f/-; ,_} · remaining contracts, KEARNECO Grading had no recourse but to sign the ,L).,Vo · letter on 18 Sept 01, thereby keeping fifteen (15) people employed. On 13 Sept 01, KEARNECO Grading cut and placed 285.Scy of fill material. In addition, 2400cy of topsoil was stripped to make available suitable fill. KEARNECO was not compensated for this work. Per e-mail dated 12 Sept 02, "Aiken & Yelle will survey the work". LT. site manager did not direct the survey to include the str.ipped material. KEARNECO Grading hired the survey through a local firm. As previous stated, twenty four hundred (2400) cy of topsoil was stripped. The desired rate of compensation is $10. 00 per cy. Th1s rate j s competitive in that it is a single task activity. KEARNECO Grading had secw·ed three (3) Terex Fomteen (14) cy Scrapers to move the soil on this project. When the scope ofthe project was changed, you removed KEARN ECO'S ability to recoup its cost.

The attendees at this meeting were LT. site manager, LT. Engineer, I.T. Safoty Rep, and Pro·ect Owner Rep from Earth Tech. None of these individuals deemed it appropriate to provide KEARNECO Grading with any changes to the water line. As was previously documented; by the close of business on 25 Sept 01, water main construction had progressed forty (40) foet inside the perimeter fonce. Reference :MEETING MINUTES dated 26 Sept O l; I.T. Corp. abn1ptly halts water line constn1ction, directing KEARNECO to leave the construction site and to Remob on job site 15 Oct 0 1. FR>< NO. : 2522579411 Mar. 22 2[102 C,:~:: D7AM F"B Further delay is realized in MEETING MINUTES dated 2 Oct 01 in whi~h KEARNECO Grading is made aware of changes in the water main by the S'tate and the Remob date has been extended to 22 Oct 0 1. On 5 Oct 0 1, . --KEARNECO received MEETING MINUTES addressing the water line redesign. An additional rendering of the proposed "New System" is presented on 22 Oct 01 with additional feat ures. At this point, KEARNECO Grading has become increasingly concerned about completing this work, in that no work had been performed since 25 Sept 01. Relevant to e-mail activity on Wednesday 12 Sept 0 1, approximately 14:00 hours (2:00p.m.), we were very concerned about ·maintaining satisfactory progress on the·remaining portiorr·of.,.~r0rk .. After·---· ··· inquiring about completing the work, we were cleared to Remob on 5 Nov 01. After water line construction was initiated, severe problems were experienced due to the New Design. i.e. Fire hydrant reconstruction and alignment due to changes in water system design. Depth of water line was too deep for hydrant, water meter with shut-off and backtlow preventer. As _a result of previous design, soil conditions had been disturbed and conditions were not favorable for setting fixtures. In addition, the fire hydrant required a two (2) foot extension due to the new design. Additional equipment was leased to prepare the soil bedding to receive the new system. After corrections in alignment were achieved and the new system was being installed, discovery was made of missing components necessary in the system design. Of importance were missing components, water meter, service saddle, pertinent hardware to tie-off components, etc. After approximately three (3) days, wait for components to arrive, some arrived with no gaskets for installation. At this point, KEARNECO Grading was directed by LT. site manager to commence component installation without key parts. The water meter was the primary unit of initial installation, but no gaskets were made available to complement the ''System Build Concept". Adhering to LT. directions, the system was laid without critical components with guidance to insert these components when they arrived at a later time. This proved disastrous when 1..· the system was pressurized. KEARNECO Grading was delayed an additional two (2) days procuring the proper component to plumb the · system. On 26 Nov O 1, we were able to test the system and initiate chlorination test. What normally would have required approximately four (4) days for completion, had required approximately fifteen (15) days for completion.

The minutes reflect that the project design could and/or would probably change and "Change. Orders" would facilitate additional task or services performed. During this meeting a construction entrance was discussed, but no line item bid was requested by IT Corporation or implied by KEARNECO Grading. Respectfully, the construction entrance designed subsequent this meeting meet the design bulld criteria. The 3/29 meeting also addresses possible 'Variances" by NCDENR. Reference the subject; the following line item was omitted and will be billed on the August invoice: • Wheat straw for temporary E&S for Tree Harvest -150 Bales@ 7.50 each With respect to labor rates "for hire": • Superintendent -45.00 hr. • Foreman -30.00 hr. • Operators -28.00 hr. • Truck Drivers -25.00 hr. • Laborers -15.00 hr. Cited prices reflect a cost plus margin and do not include applicable accounting factors for workers compensation, local, state and federal assessments. · Equipment rental rates are subject to prevailing market conditions and are tailored to meet heavy cite clearing needs. Clearing operations that promote productivity require heavier and higher horsepower assets. Equipment organic to KEARNECO Grading meets this criteria. Equipment readily available through most rental companies is average build, smaller and meet minimum horsepower requirements. Respectfully our equipment rental rates will reflect this factor. Supplies purchased and delivered will reflect a purchase and delivery price. The item questioned; aggregate stone, reflects a per ton rate inclusive of pick-up, delivery and accounting cost. Cost is also reflective of damage to equipment, i.e. ERO-GB is quoted at $22.00 per ton as compared to NC #57 at $14.50 per ton due to less damage to dump trucks. In addition these prices reflect hauling assets made available to IT Corporation on demand with no wait time for delivery.

Since you have not responded to the phone message I left on your answering machine on February 25, I continue to assume that the mailed copy of your reply, which I have not yet received, also consists of only your 3 page letter, with no attachments or enclosures of the supporting documentation which I had requested in my letter of February 12. I am extremely distressed that your reply letter provides very little new information and absolutely none of the supporting documentation which I had requested in order to permit IT Corp to evaluate your claims for items 1,2,5,6,8 or 9. A key element that is missing in virtually every case is any evidence that IT Corp approved and directed, in writing, the alleged changes in the work for which you now seek compensation. Such written direction is clearly required by section 2.B.2 of the Overriding Agreement which governs your subcontract. Therefore, in accordance with the last paragraph ofmy letter of February 12, I must consider that Kearneco Grading has waived its rights to further compensation on these issues. With regard to item 3, interest, I stand by my previous response that any interest which may be due to you will be calculated under the terms of the prime contact between IT Corp and NCDENR, specifically General Conditions Article 17 b. That article sets the interest rate at 1 % per month, not the prime plus 1 % which you request in your letter of February 19. With regard to item 7, backflow preventer, I again stand by my previous reply. A backflow preventer was clearly part of your subcontract scope of work, per the references cited in my letter of February 12. Since your proposal did not exclude it, IT Corp reasonably assumed that the associated cost was included in your base bid If that was not the case it is apparently due to a bidding error by Kearneco Grading for which IT Corp assumes no responsibility. With regard to item 4, your reply clarifies that the 2,400 cy consists of "organic soil". To the extent that this may be true, it its largely because it was not completely grubbed, which was part of the work which Kearneco Grading was to perform under line 2 of your purchase order and subcontract, clear and grub, for which you have been paid in full. Had that work been completely and properly performed, this soil could have been used as fill, especially in areas that did not require 95% compaction. Instead, you found it more convenient to move this soil out of the work area so that the rest of the grading and compaction work could be performed more easily. IT Corp agreed to allow this in an effort to help Kearneco Grading regain some of the time which had been lost due to your failure to obtain an Erosion and Sediment Control Permit in a timely manner, as required by item 1.1.C.l and section III, item lC of your subcontract Scope of Work. We agreed despite the fact that removing this material from the grading mass balance forced IT Corp to pay our surveying/engineering subcontractor to redesign portions of the site grading plan to compensate for the "loss" of this material. The presence of this stockpile will also hinder our future operations at the site, as it greatly reduces the available area in which to stockpile clean overburden and treated soil from the landfill area. Despite these direct costs and future impacts on site operations, IT Corp has not sought to backcharge Kearneco Grading but instead has allowed you to retain the savings which resulted from the reduction in your grubbing effort. Also in item 4, your reply states that IT Corp" ... changed the scope of the project", which" ... removed my ability to recoup my cost". That scope reduction was done entirely in accordance with our September 13, 2001 Letter of Agreement, which your reply now attempts to repudiate. I am extremely offended at your attempt to reject an agreement which was negotiated only after considerable effort by myself and other members of the IT Corp project team, and which was done almost exclusively for the benefit of Kearneco Grading, in recognition of your status as a local contractor. To refresh your memory of the circumstances of that Letter of Agreement, may I remind you that at the time you were already over 5 weeks past the August 6 date by which item III, Schedule of your Scope of Work, required that you have completed all of your site work sufficiently to allow others unimpeded access to place the stone base for the concrete pad. By any reasonable estimate you still had several weeks of grading work left to perform and you had not even started on the water line, access road and parking lot, and significant portions of the permanent E&S features. IT Corp therefore had more than adequate cause to initiate proceedings to declare Keameco Grading in default in accordance with section 3 of the Overriding Agreement which governs your subcontract. Had we done so you would have had no opportunity to perform the water line, access road, or E&S work, and would have been liable to IT Corp for the additional costs of having that work and the remainder of the grading performed by others. I clearly recall your desire, stated to me in site meetings and subsequent telephone conversations, that we not take this action as you did not wish to have a termination for default on your record. You also stated your belief that you could perform the water line, access road, and E&S work for your subcontract prices at a profit, which would allow you to at least in part recoup your costs for the grading work performed up to that time. In accordance with your strongly stated wishes IT Corp decided to forego taking take the unilateral action of termination, justified though it may have been. Instead, we offered and you accepted, after considerable negotiation, the September 13 Letter of Agreement. Under that Agreement you retained the right to perform all of your remaining scope of work except the balance of the grading activity, which should have allowed you to recoup at least some of your costs. Furthermore, IT Corp has made no attempt to date to recover from Kearneco Grading the additional costs incurred by IT Corp as a result of having to subcontract another firm to complete the balance of the grading work. To summarize my response to your item 4, I find your arguments without merit and reject any payment for this issue. I feel that IT Corp has been more than generous to this point in not backcharging Kearneco Grading for either the direct costs incurred to date or the future inconvenience caused by having a 2,400 cy stockpile in the way of our operations. In conclusion, let me express my regret that the relationship between our firms has reached its present lamentable state. IT Corp has made every effort to support your work, including often paying you well ahead of the terms of either our prime contract with NCDENR or our subcontract with you. Despite our own financial difficulties this favorable treatment continued through September, 2001, despite significant failures to perform on the part of Kearneco Grading that would ordinarily have justified termination for default on at least 3 separate occasions prior to that time. I refer to your failure to provide perfonnance and payment bonds within 2 weeks of receipt of subcontract (Scope of Work section III, item 8), failure to obtain E&S pennit 2 weeks prior to scheduled start of work (SOW section III, item lC) and the aforementioned failure to complete all site work sufficiently to allow others unimpeded access to place the stone base for the concrete pad by August 4 (SOW section III, items 2 to 7). I might also point out that under section 7 of the Overriding Agreement governing your subcontract IT Corp had no obligation to make any payments until adequate performance and payment bonds were furnished by Kearneco Grading, an event which has never occurred. All of the above deadlines were personally negotiated with and agreed to by you prior to issuing the subcontract, they were not unreasonably imposed by IT Corp. Although under no contractual obligation to do so, IT Corp has so far forgiven these failures and made no attempt to recoup the considerable additional costs incurred from Kearneco Grading. While I am not nai:Ve enough to expect expressions of gratitude in return I certainly did not expect to receive a "final invoice" that includes over $50,000 of new charges, many of which are based on what I view to be highly questionable grounds and virtually none of which are supported by the types of cost documentation which not only are routinely supplied in such situations but which would be absolutely required by the terms of our prime contract with NCDENR if IT Corp were to attempt to recover these costs from NCDENR through the change order process. Should you insist on pursuing this matter further, all correspondence should be sent to my attention at: IT Corp 200 Horizon Center Blvd Trenton, NJ 08691-1904 Attn: Gary Duke As an alternative, items can be faxed to me at (609) 588-6300 with followup via mail.

First, let me note that I have not received the originals of your letter of February 19 or any subsequent correspondence. Since the mail service appears to be unusually slow and we are relying on faxed copies I request that when you fax me anything you follow it up with a phone call to me at (609) 588-6373 to tell me the fax was sent. Likewise, I will leave you a message at (252) 257-4105 after faxing you. In this way we will both know to expect faxes and can contact the other if they are not received due to transmission errors or other problems. With regard to your addendum of February 22, the only asset that should have been required by my letter of February 12 was a copying machine to copy the documentation should already be in your possession. I assume you own one, and if not there are two copying services located in Henderson listed in your local Yellow Pages, as well as whatever firms may be located in Warrenton. Therefore I can see no valid reason for not complying with my request for the documentation which not only is routinely supplied in such situations but which would be absolutely required by the terms of our prime contract with NCDENR if IT Corp were to attempt to recover these costs from NCDENR through the change order process. You February 22 addendum also requests that we meet on site to " ... endorse these matters through documentation". At this time I do not expect to be on site until some time in April at the earliest, which I am sure you will agree is too long to leave these matters unresolved. However, I see no point to any meeting W1til I receive and have adequately reviewed the requested documentation. This would be necessary in any case and is of even greater importance in view of your letter of February 25, which threatens a variety of legal actions. In view of that threat I am certainly not in a position to negotiate productively W1til the factual basis of your claims, as supported by written documentation, is reviewed by both myself and ITCorp's contract administration and legal departments. If the documentation does not exist or if you are unwilling to provide it then, to put it blW1tly, you have no case that would be considered by either myself or any reasonable third party. If you do intend to provide it then there is no need to wait for a meeting to do so, and it is in the interests of all involved for you to supply it as soon as possible. PLEASE CONTACT ME BY PHONE AT (609) 588-6373 NOT LATER THAN NOON ON WEDNESDAY, MARCH 6 TO CONFIRM THAT YOU INTEND TO PROVIDE THE DOCUMENTATION AND ADVISE WHAT DATE YOU ARE WILLING TO COMMIT TO FOR MY RECEIPT OF IT. I have a conference call with NCDENR and others that afternoon and the status of your subcontract is scheduled to be a topic of discussion. With regard to your letter of February 25, the first paragraph states that I directed at our December 7, 2001 meeting that you provide "final invoices". That is only partially correct and is W1doubtedly misleading to a number of the people you chose to copy on that letter. To clarify for their benefit as well as to refresh your memory, I told you that two invoices would be required for the W1disputed balance of your contract, which totals $50,813.77. The first invoice, for $30,800, was faxed to me on December 19 and entered for processing. As I told you at that time, I expected it to be paid in January. However, our January 16 filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy has delayed that payment. The second invoice, for the W1disputed balance of $20,013.77, is to be submitted after you receive payment of the first invoice and use the proceeds to pay all of the subcontractors and vendors you used on this project. I instructed you to obtain final releases of lien from these vendors and submit them, along with a conditional final release of lien from Kearneco Grading, with the second invoice, which I would then be able to approve. Copies of the release of lien forms were provided to you at the December 7 meeting. I must point out that this "split invoicing" and its impact on your cash flow would not have been necessary had Kearneco Grading provided the performance and payment bonds required by yom subcontract. However, in the absence of the payment bond which you refused to obtain it is necessary for IT Corp to retain a portion of your final payment in order to ensure that all of your vendors are paid. I recall informing you of this at om meeting last summer when you first informed me of yom decision to not provide the bonds, and I pointed out that you would likely need to obtain a larger line of credit from your bank to offset the impact on your cash flow. With regard to disputed charges, the only item which you had notified me of as of the December 7 meeting related to the fall demob/remob for the water line work, which is now items 1 and 2 of the disputed items list. You had verbally proposed the figure of $10,000.00 to our site superintendent, Mr. William Gallagher. I told you that this seemed excessive in view of the fact that the demobilization of all of your equipment was covered by your base contract, and that this item was only intended to cover the remob and later demob of the equipment which was returned to the site for the water line and access road work. From our records, it appears that this involved the movement of only 5 pieces of equipment (JD644C loader, Case 580 backhoe, Galion T-500 grader, dump truck and service truck), which to my knowledge were only moved the 2-3 miles each way to your home. You stated that some of it went further, to other job sites, and that you would have to look up your records on this. I told you to submit that information when it was available so that we could negotiate a fair cost for this work in time to issue the necessary change order to your subcontract and so allow you to add it to the $20,013.77 portion of your final invoice. At no time since then, despite repeated verbal and written requests, have you provided any further information on this matter. Your only response to date has been to invoice $13,525.00 on your January 25 "final invoice", which also included an additional $40,307.97 of what you identified as "disputed line items" that were never discussed at our December 7 closeout meeting. From various statements made in your correspondence, including your letter of February 25, it appears that you are under the impression that the only action required on your part to collect these disputed amounts is to submit an invoice with whatever dollar amount you feel is appropriate, with no documentation to show the contractual basis for the additional charge (such as written direction to perform it), documentation as to the amount or type of work performed ( such as daily time sheets witnessed by an IT Corp representative), or any supporting documents (such as payroll records or vendor invoices) to show the actual costs incurred by Keameco Grading. If that is indeed your understanding I can assure you that it is seriously in error and that at no time did I or any other representative of IT Corp tell you that merely submitting an undocumented invoice for a disputed item that in most cases had never even been discussed would ensure payment. The second paragraph of your letter of February 25 incorrectly states that the most recent invoice paid by IT Corp was for your invoice dated September 27, 2001. We agree that that was paid; However, our records show that you also received payment for the subsequent invoice, dated November 2, 2001, in the amount of$13,000.00, for work performed in October. This was paid by check #4094910, dated December 5, 2001. The only unpaid invoice is the December 19 invoice for $30,800.00 discussed above. The third paragraph of your letter of February 25 states that your invoice of December 19 for $30,800.00 has not been honored. You further incorrectly state that I alleged this was placed in a hold status until resolution of all disputes. As explained above, we do not dispute the invoice but payment has been delayed by the bankruptcy proceedings, it is in no way connected to resolution of the disputed items. Even your future invoice for the balance of the undisputed work should not be impacted in that the conditional release of lien to be submitted by Kearneco Grading with that invoice has a place to enter disputed amounts. The fourth paragraph of your letter of February 25 states that you are considering obtaining legal counsel regarding bonding claims, legal suits, a lien on the project, etc. If you are seriously considering any of these options then obtaining competent legal counsel is an excellent idea that I wholly endorse. In the following paragraphs I mention some issues that your counsel will need to be aware of before deciding on a course of action. I am well aware that you have been in contact with our bonding company, and encourage you to promptly fill out and submit the claim forms they sent you, if you have not already done so, to the extent that they apply to the undisputed amounts. While I do not expect this to be necessary it is certainly within your rights and it does no harm to protect your legitimate interests to the maximum extent possible. IT Corp has advised several of our other vendors to take this reasonable precaution. However, I do not believe that you can reasonably expect payment from them for the disputed amounts without providing documentation of the type I have requested. If you do intend to provide that documentation then it is likely that the fastest way to get paid is to submit it directly to me, although you are welcome to copy the bonding company on anything that you wish to bring to their attention. IT Corp will oppose any payments by the bonding company for disputed amounts without our agreement, which will not be forthcoming unless we receive the requested documentation and subsequently negotiate a mutually satisfactory settlement for all of the disputed items, as evidenced by a signed change order and final release of lien. With regard to legal suits, allow me to point out that the disputes procedure for your subcontract is clearly described in section 26 of the IT Corporation Work Agreement, which you signed on March 15 , 2001. It provides that any dispute not settled through negotiation or other mutually agreed alternative dispute resolution shall be settled by binding arbitration and that this arbitration, unless mutually agreed otherwise, shall be conducted in Pittsburgh, PA. An agreement to arbitrate would preclude any action in a local court, as your letter seems to imply you intend to do. Upon filing a petition in bankruptcy, as IT Corp has done, the automatic stay precludes the filing of any legal actions by you, including the arbitration that would otherwise be permitted by your subcontract, tmless you request and receive relief from the automatic stay from the bankruptcy court. Should you insist on pursuing this matter further, all correspondence should be sent to my attention at: IT Corp 200 Horizon Center Blvd Trenton, NJ 08691-1904 Attn: Gary Duke As an alternative, items can be faxed to me at (609) 588-6300 with followup via mail.

Per your direction at our 7 Dec O 1 close-out meeting, KEARNECO Grading was to provide FINAL INVOICES for supplies and services provided. That invoice was provided 25 Jan 02. You requested additional information with a 'waive all rights' deadline of22 Feb 02. These invoices were all provided with an addendum. The most recent invoice submitted by KEARNECO Grading that was paid in full by IT Corporation was dated 27 Sept O 1 for work performed 3ffAug O 1 through 27 Sept 01. The invoice dated 19 Dec O 1 for services performed in Nov O 1, was not honored. You indicated possible payment early Jan 02. This payment, along with final billings which include interest on other LA TE PAYMENTS, has been alleged by you as being placed in a "HOLD" status, until resolution of all disputes between IT Corporation and KEARNECO Grading.

In my final invoice, I requested $13,525.00 (thirteen-thousand .. fi ve- hundred-twenty-five dollars), for mobilization cost. This is substantially less than the original request in which you honored for $20,000.00 (twenty- thousand doJlars). In addition, the original MOB was a one-time move.

As discussed in ur December 7, 2001 meeting, you were to submit your proposal for this item, including an itemiza ion of the · · associai:.t:d·'IXJSts-in ·sufficient detail to· pennit them to-be verified as applicable. and asonable. I have asked you on several occasions since then for this information. Instead you applica ion references a lump sum plus other items, including interest. No lump surn has ever been agreed on, interest will be paid only in accordance with the terms of the prime contract (see item 3 below), and you still have provided no breakdovm of the additional labor or equipment costs. I cannot consid · r approving any additional charges for this issue until such an itemized breakdown is provided and greed to. Please provide this information not later than 4 pm on Friday, February 22, 2002. STATUS: HOLD, pending submissiott of itemized costs by Kearneco Grading 2, REMOB-This proposed charge for $5,500.00 references an August 3, 2001 mern randum for record. That memorandum relates primarily to changes in scope for the E&S work o be performed under line 3 of your purchase order. On August 10, 2001 we agreed to a settlement for this issue in the lump sUm amount of $5,000. Subsequent to that our Mr. Bill Gallagher paid a tor repair 2t'E.'OIJ Wd90:t-2002'21'83j invoice for you in the amount of $4 71.02, The balance of $4,528.98 was added to yo r purchase ~rder in Amendment #1 as a new P.O. line #10. You showed this amount on line 3 of your ugust 29, 2001 invoice, which was paid on or about September 7, 2001. STATUS: REJECTED, already paid. 3. INTER.EST -Proposed charges of $710.00 shown. As stated in item S of my letter o January 24, 2002, interest due to you under the terms of the prime contract may be calculated an paid separately once the actual dates of all future payments to you me known STATUS: HOLD, for resolution of all disputes. 4. GRADING-Proposed charges of$25,SS1.00 shown, based on 285.S cy cut and pta ed and 2,400 cy s1lipped, It is not stated whnt work this item relates to, so I am forced to assume that ·t involved the grading work performed under line S of your purchase ordor. Attachment 2 to this 1 er shows the calculation of your final grading quantities, in accordance with the September 13, 2 1 letter of agreement regarding reduction in your scope ofwotk for that item. 1t shows a total 3,354 cy, which is in excess of the amourtt you now claltn. The associated charges of $21,207.20 we applied to your original P .0. line #5 arnotttlt of $78,400.00, ahd the unused balance of $S2, 192.80 deducted from the purchase order in Amettdment #2 on new P.O. line #15. 0fthe $21,207.20 appr ed, $14,739.20 was already paid on line 2 of your August 29, 2001 invoice, which was paid on or a out September 7, 2001. The outstanding balance of $6,468.00 has already been included in the appro d fig1.1res for final payment (see item 10 below) that we discussed on December 7, 2001 1 and sbo ld not be duplicated here as a disputed item. I must point out that the reason your proposed c ge exceeds the dollar amount previously agreed to is that you pr1Jpose a charge of $24,000.00 for 2, 00 cy of stripping. TI1e implied unit rate of $10,00/cy is weJI in excess of the rates used in yo r origlna1 . proposal and purchase order, which were less than $6.00/cy. Even ifwc were to agr e to quantities in excess of the 3,354 cy already approved, I can assure you that we would not agree t pay for them at a rate almost double that previously agreed to, .

WATER MAIN -Your application does not make it clear why you consider this to e a change order. Furthe11nore, you never provided written notice of this as a change and you never ntioned it at our closeout meeting on December 7, This lack of ttoticc is in violation of paragraph 2. .2 of the Overriding Agreement dated April 24, 2001, which governs your subcontract, there ore I must reject your claim for this amount.

DAMAGE TO WATER MAIN-Your apPlijs.tion states that Ellington Grading dam ged the water main. Neither Bill Gallagher nor I have any · owledge of the alleged damage, and y u never mentioned it at out closeout meeting on mbet 7. This lack of notice is in viols.ti n of paragraph 2.B.2 of the Overriding Agreement dated A il 24, 2001, which governs your subco tract. In addition, had Ellington caused such damage e would have verified it and asked tha they repair it or reimburse IT Corp for the cost ofha_ving yo tepEiir it, ifwe had elected to have you orm the repairs. In the absence of any previous noti ftotti you regarding such damage we h ve already negotiated the final amount of our purchase rdet and subcontract with Ellington & ons. Since lack of timely notice from you has effectively prevented us from recovering the cost ft Ellington I must reject your claim for this amount.

This was done solely as a courtesy to you, since ou had not notified us of any need for remeasurement at our December 7 closeout meoting. D 's subsequently met you and your surveyor at the site. By his account, he spent much of the time ob rving the surveyor measure the soil stockpile at the north ettd of the landfill.

The slab was raised to ~liminate over 10,000 CY of exce material that was built into the BFA design. this raised slab was the baseline for grading. Startlng Desiga The starting design showed 14,526 CY of cut and 15,400 CY of fill not counting 3 CY of rock and concrete to be brought on site.

Excess material wus included in the design for the removal of roots and topsoil. Floul Survey The survey on 9/14/01 marks the end point otthe Kearneco grading. A survey do at this point, aftet' adjusting the site down 6 inches, showed the following: Cut Yards Remaining: 8,827 Fill Yards Remaining: 12,265-3000 = 9,265 Net Yards: 9,265 -8,827"" 438 CY of additional rrtatetial requi ed The adjustment of the site down 6 inches should have btouiht the cut/fill into bal ce.

Mr. Stephen Beatty Kemper Insurance 1 Kemper Drive Long Grove, IL 60049 Phone: 847-320-2170 Fax: 847-320-5828 I have not spoken or had any contact with Mr. Beatty so far. I was given this information by Pam Nunez who is with Marsh USA. March is the agency that sold the bond to IT. You have a copy of the bond and it has the bond number you can reference. Please feel free to pass the information on to anyone else that might be interested in pursuing a claim. 2 -Letter to IT As I mentioned, the state is sending a letter to IT indicating that we know they have filed for bankruptcy. We are asking that they provide information on how they plan to complete the contract per terms and conditions. It specifically requests information on their creditors under this contract. The lawyers in the Attorney General's office are reviewing a draft today to ensure it has all the correct legal language. I will send you a copy of the final version for your reference. Bankruptcy and non-payment of subcontractors are conditions that can result in the state declaring the contract with IT in default and the state approaching the bonding company to assume the project. The letter has to be sent certified with return receipt. IT then has 15 days to respond. Since they are still presenting their first day motions that will govern some of what they do in the near future, I can only wait and see I receive. 3 -Invoices I talked to State Construction and they said that the contractor is supposed to pay the subcontractor within seven days of the receipt of payment from us on the work completed. We pay the contractor based on what we see and agree is completed. In most cases they have attached an invoice from their January 24, 2002 sub or explained that they were waiting on an invoice. They then pay your invoice after receiving our payment. I asked about the situation in which the contractor had not been invoiced by the subcontractor. State Construction said that was the subcontractor problem. We don't have any rules addressing that. That is why it was important for you to invoice IT in December for work you had completed. Otherwise, IT doesn't have a timeline for paying you. I knew from our December progress meeting and from a later conversation with Gary that you had not submitted an invoice. Based on previous discussions, I assumed you might want payment as soon as possible for your work. The suggestion that you submit an invoice was an attempt to help you. At that time, we did not know that IT would be filing for bankruptcy. That has obviously affected the normal way they conduct business. 4 -Pre-petition vs Post-petition Creditors I have been informed that this depends on when the work was performed and not the invoice date. So if you submit an invoice today for work that was completed before January 16th, my understanding is that it is considered pre-petition. 5 -As Gary mentioned in the letter you faxed me, IT is providing information on the bankruptcy and restructuring. That is my main source of information. If you have access to the Internet, you can have as much information as I do. If you need to, you could go by the PCB Office and have Robin pull it up for you. You need to take the memo to provide her the web site address. It may help answer some of yot.Yquestions. • Page2 FROM :PDKERRNEY FRX NO . :2522579411 Jan. 23 2C1C12 11 :37PM Pi -------------- FAX Dace: "2 :'S. '-J /?Zf: o ·-2-______ .__.

Simultaneous with this transaction, The IT Group, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions under chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Wilmington, Delaware. The IT Group's joint ventures and its Canadian subsidiary, Roche Limited Consulting Group, are not included in the chapter 11 reorganization cases, but are included in the proposed asset sale to Shaw, and are continuing nonnal business operations. I would like to emphasize that The IT Group is NOT going out of business. In connection with our chapter 11 filing and the proposed sale, The Shaw Group has agreed in principle to provide The IT Group with a debtor-in-possession (DIP) credit facility of up to $75 million. Our filing and the agreement in principle to provide DIP financing from Shaw will allow us to provide for an orderly sale of the Company while enabling us to take steps to address our liquidity issues and stabilize operations. In short, we are open for business and remain focused on serving our customers. Since you provided goods or services to The IT Group or certain of its subsidiaries before the chapter 11 filing, then you have what are referred to as pre-petition claims, which may be paid during the normal course of the chapter 11 cases. We deeply regret the hardship or inconvenience that this may cause. You will be receiving a claim form from the court's claims agent in a few weeks. In the particular case of the work you performed at the Warren County PCB Landfill, that project is also covered by a payment bond. In the event that you do not receive full compensation for duly approved invoices for this project through the bankruptcy proceedings you would then have the option of pursuing payment from the bonding company. The Company is committed to consummating this sale and concluding our chapter 11 process as quickly as possible. Updated information can also be obtained from our web site at www.theitgroup.com, click on "news", then on "restructuring news". I would like to emphasize that our relationship with you is, and has always been, a top priority for our Company. On behalf of our entire management team, I'd like to thank you for your continued support. I would also like to assure you that we will do all we can to keep you fully informed of developments relating to our reorganization process. If you would like further information, please feel free to call me at (609) 588-6373. If you would like further information about The Shaw Group, please visit their website at www.shawgrp.com. Sincerely, Gary W. Duke, P.E. Project Manager VIA FAX, NO HARD COPY January 24, 2002 Kearneco Grading Route 2, Box 4 Warrenton, NC 27589 (252) 257-4105 phone (252) 257-9411 fax Attn: Mr. Paul Kearney, President Dear Paul, In response to your letter of January 23, 2002, I can offer the following information and explanations. 1. IT Corp has indeed filed for bankruptcy under Chapter 11, effective January 16, 2002. 2. IT Corp has a letter of intent to sell to Shaw Group. However, under Chapter 11 we are required to entertain competing offers. The bankruptcy court judge will set a date by which any competing offers must be submitted to the court. Although no date has been set at this time I anticipate that it will be in mid-February. 3. I met with you on December 7 and discussed your invoicing status. We agreed that you would submit an invoice for $30,800. When you received that check you would use it to pay your subcontractors and vendors for this project so that we could obtain "final releases ofliens" from them as well as a "conditional release upon final payment" from Keameco Grading. Release of lien forms were provided to you for that purpose. When I had not received your invoice on December 17 I called to remind you and you faxed it that day, at which time I approved it and submitted it to our accounts payable department for processing on December 19. I asked that to the extent possible that payment be expedited to something less than the net 60 terms of your purchase order. 4. Due to ongoing cash flow problems that invoice was not paid before IT Corp filed for bankruptcy on January 16. All payments for pre-petition work such as this one are now under the control of the bankruptcy court, and I cannot say with any degree of certainty what their status is. I did tell you yesterday that, based on the proceedings to date, that I believe late February to early March is the earliest that I would reasonably expect payment might be forthcoming. To accomplish that would probably require that the buyer of the company, be it Shaw Group or others (see item 2), be identified and approved by the court and that they subsequently provide sufficient cash to pay claims such as yours. While that is the goal of both IT Corp and Shaw I must again caution you that the bankruptcy court remains the final authority in these matters, so further delays are possible. 5. With regard to interest, our prime contract with NCDENR requires that we pay interest in certain circumstances, which are likely to apply here. Any interest due would be calculated once the actual dates of all future payments to you are known, and would be paid separately. 6. At our December 7 meeting we further agreed that once we received all of the releases of lien from you and your subcontractors and vendors I could approve and process your final invoice, which we estimated would be approximately $20,000. It was necessary to estimate the amount because you still needed to resubmit your proposal for the demob/remob cost change order associated with the interruption of your work on the water line. I reminded you of our need for that proposal in my December 17 call, when you said you would submit it that week. Yesterday you informed me that you still have not completed it. 7. Yesterday you informed me of your desire to reenter the site to remeasure some work for final invoicing, although I had understood at our December 7 meeting that we were in agreement on installed quantities. At that time I told you I saw little point in arranging access unless myself or Bill Gallagher are present since I am not normally inclined to revise billing based on measurements that are not witnessed by a representative of IT Corp. After further consideration I agree with your proposal to have Dennis Jones of Earth Tech witness the measurements at your mutual convenience. I have left messages at his office and on his cell phone service this morning to that effect., you should contact him directly to arrange a time. I do not expect that this will in any way delay your final billing since, as pointed out above, that cannot occur in any case until we pay you the $30,800 currently outstanding and you use it to obtain releases of lien from your vendors. I will look forward to receipt of your revised demob/remob cost proposal and the results of your remeasurement efforts. All correspondence should be sent to my attention at: IT Corp 200 Horizon Center Blvd Trenton, NJ 08691-1904 Attn: Gary Duke As an alternative, items can be faxed to me at ( 609) 588-6300. Please do NOT send faxes or mail to the Momoeville, PA address as you did this morning, as this causes unnecessary confusion and potential loss or delay in processing. Sincerely, Gary W. Duke, P.E.

Additional work is that which results from a change or alteration in the contract and for which there are existing contract unit prices. 1-1 t Section 510 510-7 BASIS OF PAYMENT. The quantity of stabilizer aggregate, measured as provided in Article 510-6, will be paid for at the contract unit price per ton (metric ton) for "Stabilizer Aggregate." Payment will be made under: Stabilizer Aggregate .................................................................................. Ton (Metric Ton) SECTION 520 AGGREGATE BASE COURSE 520-1 DESCRIPTION. Perform the work covered by this section including but not limited to constructing a base composed of an approved aggregate material hauled to the road, placed on the road, mixed, compacted, and shaped to conform to the lines, grades, depths, and typical sections shown in the plans and applying a sand seal in accordance with the provisions of Article 520-5, and maintaining the base. 520-2 MATERIALS. Refer to Division 10: Aggregate base course .................................................................... Sections 1006, and l 0 l 0 520-3 METHODS OF PRODUCTION. (A) General: Furnish, at your option, aggregate base course material as described below unless otherwise specified in the special provisions. (B) Aggregate: Aggregate upon which no restrictions are placed on the production or stockpiling except as provided in Sections 1005, 1006, and 1010; and which have been placed on the roadway, sampled, tested and approved in accordance with the provisions of Subarticle 520-6(B). 520-4 SUBGRADE PREPARATION. Prepare the subgrade in accordance with Section 500 prior to placement of the base material. 520-5 HAULING AND PLACING AGGREGATE BASE MATERIAL. Place the aggregate material on the subgrade with a mechanical spreader capable of placing the material to a uniform loose depth and without segregation except that for areas inaccessible to a mechanical spreader, the aggregate material may be placed by other methods approved by the Engineer. Where the Contractor elects to use more than one source of aggregate as described in Article 520-3, place the various types of aggregate used in an approved manner which will permit the sampling and testing required by Article 520-6. Where the required compacted thickness of base is 10 inches (254 mm) or less, the base material may be spread and compacted in one layer. Where the required compacted thickness is more than 10 inches (254 mm), spread the base material and compact in 2 or more approximately equal layers. Compact the base material to a minimum thickness of approximately 4 inches (101.6 mm) for any one layer. Have each layer of material sampled, tested, compacted, and approved prior to placing succeeding layers of base material or pavement. Do not place base material on frozen sub grade or base. 5-9 Section 520 Cover, within 7 calendar days, base course placed between November 15 and March 15 inclusive with a subsequent layer of pavement structure or with a sand seal. Apply sand seal in accordance with the requirements of Section 660 except that Articles 660-3, 660-1 l, and 660-12 will not apply. Failure of the Contractor to cover the base course as required above will result in the Engineer notifying the Contractor in writing to cover the base course with a sand seal and to suspend the operations of placing aggregate base course until such cover has been placed. Perform this work at no cost to the Department. In the event that the Contractor fails to apply the sand seal within 72 hours after receipt of such notice, the Engineer may proceed to have such work performed with other forces and equipment. The cost of such work performed by the Department will be deducted from monies due or to become due the Contractor. The application of the sand seal by the Contractor or by others will in no way relieve the Contractor of the responsibility to maintain or repair the damaged base or subgrade, no matter what the cause of damage, at no cost to the Department. Do not allow traffic on the completed base course other than necessary local traffic and that developing from the operation of essential construction equipment as may be authorized by the Engineer. Repair any defects that develop in the completed base or any damage caused by local or construction traffic acceptably at no cost to the Department. Hauling equipment may be operated with the approval of the Engineer, over a lower layer of base, however, acceptably repair any rutting, weaving, or soft areas that develop at no cost to the Department. Do not exceed 35 miles per hour (55 kilometers per hour) with hauling equipment traveling over any part of the base. Utilize methods of handling, hauling, and placing which will minimize segregation and contamination. If segregation occurs, the Engineer may require that changes be made in the Contractor's methods to minimize segregation, and may also require mixing on the road which may be necessary to correct any segregation. No additional compensation will be allowed for the work of road mixing as may be required under this provision. Remove and replace all aggregate which is contaminated with foreign materials to the extent that the base course will not adequately serve its intended use at no additional cost to the Department. The above requirements will be applicable regardless of the type of aggregate placed and regardless of prior acceptance. 520-6 SAMPLING, TESTING, AND ACCEPTANCE. (A) General: Sampling for the determination of gradation, liquid limit, and plasticity index for the various types of aggregate, as defined in Article 520-3, will be performed as outlined below in (B) and (C). Acceptance of the applicable type of aggregate will also be based upon the requirements listed below. Test all samples in accordance with Subarticle 520-6(D). (B) Aggregate: NCDOT Roadway Assurance Sampling: For sampling and acceptance purposes, a lot will be considered to be 5,000 tons (5000 metric tons) or a fraction thereof. For each lot of aggregate placed on the road, 2 samples will be taken at random locations on the road prior to compaction. The first sample will be taken from the first 2,500 tons (2,500 metric tons) or first half of the lot, the second sample will be taken from the second 2,500 tons (2,500 metric tons) or second half of the lot. The gradation test results of these samples will be averaged. The average and the range of these samples will be used to determine the acceptability of the lot. It is intended that the gradation of the aggregate be in the middle of the limits shown in Column C of Table 520-l. If, however, the average gradation test results for a lot are 5-10 Section 520 within the limits shown in Column C of Table 520-1 and the range between the test results does not exceed the requirements shown in Column D of Table 520-1, the lot will be considered as acceptable. Lots not considered acceptable as provided above will be treated according to the provisions of Article 10 l 0-2(C), Roadway Assurance Sampling.

Where visual observation indicates the need to do so, the Engineer may require the Contractor to road mix areas of nonuniform gradation at no additional cost to the Department. The Engineer reserves the right to take samples in addition to the lot acceptance samples from within the lot in areas exhibiting nonuniform gradation. When the test results from such an additional sample is outside the gradation limits given in Column C of Table 520-1 and the nonuniformity cannot be corrected by road mixing, the aggregate base course represented by the sample will be rejected and replaced by the Contractor at no cost to the Department. When the test results for either the lot or additional samples taken within the lot indicate the material is to be rejected and removed by the Contractor, and the material can be corrected by the addition of fine aggregate, the Engineer may allow the material to be corrected provided there is no cost to the Department for furnishing, remixing, reshaping, and recompacting of the base material. The base material will be rejected unless the average test result of the corrected material is within the gradation limits shown in Column B of Table 520-1 and the range between the test results does not exceed the requirements of Column D of Table 520-1. If the corrected material is rejected, replace it at no additional cost to the Department. 520-7 SHAPING AND COMPACTION. Machine and compact the layer of base within 48 hours after beginning the placing of a layer of the base. Maintain each layer to the required cross section during compaction and compact each layer to the required density prior to placing the next layer. When electing to use conventional density test number 3 (ring test) to determine density, compact each layer of the base to a density equal to at least 100% of that obtained 5-11 Section 520 by compacting a sample of the material in accordance with AASHTO T 180 as modified by the Department. Copies of these modified testing procedures are available upon request from the Materials and Tests Unit. Follow the requirements as specified in Article 520-9 when electing to use nuclear methods to determine the density. Compact the base material at a moisture content which is approximately that required to produce a maximum density indicated by the above test method. Dry or add moisture to the material when required to provide a uniformly compacted and acceptable base. Shape the final layer of base material to conform to the lines, grades, and typical section as shown on the plans. Construct the base course so that it is smooth, hard, dense, unyielding, and well bonded upon completion. A broom drag may be used in connection with the final finishing and conditioning of the surface of the base course. 520-8 TOLERANCES. After final shaping and compacting of the base, the Engineer will check the surface of the base for conformance to the grade and typical section and determine the base thickness. Construct the base so that the thickness of the base is within a tolerance of plus or minus 1/2 inch (12.7 mm) of the base thickness required by the plans. Construct the base so that the maximum differential between the established grade and the base within any 100 foot (30 .5 meter) section is 1/2 inch (12.7 mm). 520-9 DENSITY DETERMINATION BY NUCLEAR METHODS (A) Application The Engineer may utilize nuclear means as described below to determine the density of selected base course materials required by Sections 520 and 540. The target density will be from the material's most recent AASHTO T180 test results, which may be obtained from the Materials and Tests Unit. A new target density is to be obtained when there is a change in the source of material, when a significant change occurs in the composition of the materials from the same source, or when determined necessary. Testing will be performed in the direct transmission mode on all aggregate base course. Additional information on testing is provided in the current N.C.D.O.T. Nuclear Gauge Operator's Manual, copies of which are available from the Materials and Tests Unit. (B) Test Sections (1) General Provide a test section which has a depth no greater than the layer depth shown in the plans or required by the Specifications, whichever is less. Determine the length of the section by the width as shown in the current Nuclear Gauge Operator's Manual. In situations where the chemical composition of the material affects the gauge moisture readings, specific instructions will be provided by the Materials and Tests Unit. (2) Equipment Equipment used in the compaction of test sections must be approved prior to use. Where uniform density is not being obtained throughout the depth of the layer of material being tested, change the type and/or weight of the compaction equipment as necessary to achieve uniform density even though such equipment has been previously approved. 5-12 Section 520 When aggregate base course material is involved, use at least one steel wheel vibratory roller weighing not less than 6 tons ( 5 .4 metric tons). (3) Compaction After the material in a test section has been spread and shaped the required width and depth, begin the compaction of the section. Carry out compaction in such a manner as to obtain uniform maximum density over the entire test section. Immediately prior to compacting the aggregate base course material, make sure it has a satisfactory moisture content. If it is necessary to add water after the material is placed, scarify the material, and add water uniformly throughout the full depth of the layer of the base course material. ( 4) Testing Procedures After the Contractor has completed compaction of the test section, the Engineer will conduct 5 density tests at random within 5 equal segments of the test section. Provide a smooth surface on the material being tested prior to any tests being performed. Density tests will not be made when the surface of an aggregate base course contains free moisture. The required density will be expressed as a percentage of the target density. (5) Acceptance Requirements Provide a density for aggregate base course of at least 98% of the nuclear target density. In addition, the nuclear density of any single test location must be at least 95% of the nuclear target density. The required density will be determined by the average of 5 nuclear density tests made at random locations within 5 equal segments of the test sections. 520-10 MAINTENANCE. Where the base material is placed in a trench section, provide adequate drainage through the shoulders to protect the subgrade and base until such time as the shoulders are completed. Maintain the surface of the base by watering, machining, rolling, or dragging when necessary to prevent damage to the base by weather or traffic. Where the base or subgrade is damaged, repair the damaged area; reshape the base to required lines, grades, and typical sections; and recompact the base to the required density at no cost to the Department. 520-11 METHOD OF MEASUREMENT. The quantity of aggregate base course to be paid for will be the actual number of tons (metric tons) of aggregate which has been incorporated into the completed and accepted work. The aggregate will be measured by being weighed in trucks on certified platform scales or other certified weighing devices. If permitted by the special provisions, the weight of base course material shipped by barge may be determined from water displacement measurements. No deductions will be made for any moisture contained in the aggregate at the time of weighing. 520-12 BASIS OF PAYMENT. The quantity of aggregate base course, measured as provided in Article 520-11 , will be paid for at the contract unit price per ton (metric ton) for "Aggregate Base Course" except when the Contractor has elected to leave a lot in place which exceeds the range of Column D of Table 520-1 but which is otherwise in accordance with the provisions of Article 520-6, the quantity of base course included in this lot will be paid for at a unit price 5-13 Section 520 by compacting a sample of the material in accordance with AASHTO T 180 as modified by the Department.

Prepare the subgrade in accordance with the provisions of Section 500. 530-4 MATERIAL SOURCES. (A) General: Clear and grub the surface of the material sources and thoroughly clean it of all unsuitable material before beginning excavation. Dispose of material resulting from clearing and grubbing in accordance with Article 200-5. Remove and dispose of overburden in accordance with Section 802. Where payment is to be made by measuring the material in its original position, notify the Engineer sufficiently in advance of beginning excavation of this material in order that the area may be staked and cross sectioned by the Engineer. No payment will be allowed for any material excavated prior to cross sections being taken. Excavate the material to the lines and slopes as staked by the Engineer and perform the excavation in an orderly manner to facilitate measurement at any time. Where payment is to be made by truck measurement, furnish trucks with bodies suitable for accurate measurement. Load trucks uniformly and in such a manner as to prevent spillage. Where it is necessary to haul material over existing roads or streets, the provisions of Article 105-15 will apply. Use all necessary precautions to prevent damage to the existing structures or pavement. Conduct hauling operations in such a manner as to not interfere with the normal flow of traffic and keep the traffic lanes free from spillage at all times. (B) Department Furnished Sources: Where material sources are furnished by the Department, the location of such sources will be as designated on the plans. The Department will furnish the necessary haul road right of way at locations designated by the Engineer. Build, maintain, and when directed, obliterate all haul roads required at no cost to the Department. Where the haul road is to be reclaimed for cultivation, plow or scarify the area to a minimum depth of 8 inches (203 .2 mm). 5-14 Section 530 Remove overburden prior to the excavation of the base material when indicated by the plans. Where it is necessary to drain the material source, perform this work in accordance with Section 240. Leave the material source in a neat and presentable condition after use. Smooth, round, and construct all slopes not steeper than 2: 1. Plow or scarify to a minimum depth of 8 inches (203.2 mm), disc harrow, and construct terraces where the source is to be reclaimed for cultivation. Seed and mulch the sources in accordance with Sections 1620, 1660, 1661 , or 1663 . (C) Contractor Furnished Sources: Approval of material sources furnished by the Contractor is subject to the following conditions: 1. Acquire the right to take the material and any rights of access that may be necessary, locate and develop the source; and clear and grub, remove overburden, and construct any drainage ditches necessary. 2. The Engineer will, upon the Contractor's request, sample and test the proposed source and give the Contractor written notice of the test results. Acceptance of the material will be subject to the results of sampling and testing on the road as provided Article 530-8. 3. Except where property is to be obtained from a commercial source, submit jointly with the property owner a material source development, use and reclamation plan for approval prior to engaging in any land disturbing activity on the proposed source other than material sampling that may be necessary. Include in the plan the following: a. Topography Detail the existing topography and locations of the proposed access and egress haul roads. Detail the proposed final topography of the waste or disposal area showing any proposed drainage systems. Excavate the source according to the plan and dress and shape it in a continuous manner to contours which are comparable to and blend in with the adjacent topography. Grade the source to drain such that no water will collect or stand. Provide a functioning drainage system for the source. If drainage is not practical, and the source is to serve as a pond, the minimum depth must be a least 4 feet (1.2 meters) as determined from the water table at the time of the reclamation plan is executed. The slope of the soil below the water must be between 5: 1 and 2: 1. The slope of the sides above the water line must be 2: 1 or flatter. b. Erosion Control Detail the temporary and permanent erosion control measures, along with design calculations, that are intended during use of the site and as part of the reclamation. Unless considered impractical due to special circumstances, provide in the plan for the use of staged permanent seeding and mulching and appropriate fertilizer topdressing on a continual basis during site use and the immediate total reclamation of the site when the site is no longer needed. Define the seed mixture proposed for establishing temporary and/or permanent vegetation. Establish permanent stand of vegetation prior to acceptance of project. c. Buffer Zones: Allocate sufficient area between the nearest property line and the tie-in of the slope to natural ground to allow for the operation of excavation, hauling, and seeding equipment and for the installation of any and all erosion control devices 5-15 Section 530 required. Leave additional undisturbed area between the source and any water course or body to prevent siltation of the water course or body and the movement of the shore line either into the water course or body or into the waste areas. Determine if any additional buffer zones are required by the adjoining property owners or other government agencies and comply with those requirements. (Suggested minimum distances are 10' (3 m) from property lines and 50' (15.2 m) from water bodies or water courses. Where it is necessary to drain the borrow source, perform this work in accordance with Section 240. d. Evaluation for Potential Wetlands and Endangered Species Hire an experienced environmental consultant to perform an assessment of the Borrow site for potential conflicts with wetlands, Areas of Environmental Concern (CAMA), and federally protected species. Delineate the boundaries of any wetlands or jurisdictional surface waters (streams) encountered .. Follow the standard practice for documenting the wetland delineation including completion of the Army Corps of Engineer's approved "wetland data form". Document information including data regarding soil, vegetation and hydrology. Maintain a minimum 25 foot (7.6 m) buffer adjacent to all sides of the wetland boundary and a minimum 50 foot (15.2 m) buffer adjacent to any stream. Depict the limits of the delineated wetland and surrounding buffer on the Reclamation Plan. Do not remove borrow material in any area under the Corps of Engineers' or any other environmental agencies' regulatory jurisdiction unless and until the NCDOT permit has been modified to permit such disposal activity in the jurisdictional area. Perform a site assessment for federally listed threatened or endangered species and federal species of concern to include habitats which may support these species. Provide to the Engineer a detailed technical report on the assessment findings. If federally listed threatened or endangered species, federal species of concern or habitat which may support such species exist on the proposed borrow site, notify the Engineer prior to continued pursuit of such site. e. Approval Obtain written approval from the Engineer prior to wasting within the proposed waste or disposal area. Submit a revised or additional reclamation plan if the non-permitted waste or disposal area is expanded by more than one acre (0.4 hectare) or is significantly changed from the previously approved submittal." (D) Substitute Sources: Follow the provisions of Subarticle 530-4(C) when electing to substitute material sources for those provided by the Department. 530-5 PLACING MATERIAL. Deposit the material on the subgrade in such a manner that when all layers are spread, mixed, and compacted, the required depth of base material will be obtained. Where more than one type of material is to be used, spread each uniformly over the subgrade prior to placing the next material. 530-6 MIXING AND COMP ACTING. Immediately after placing and spreading the base material, begin mixing operations. Perform the mixing in a manner which will produce a thoroughly and uniformly mixed base course. Compact the base uniformly throughout the depth and width of the base. Where the base is thicker than 8 inches (203 .2 mm), spread the base and compact it in 2 layers approximately equal in thickness. 5-16 Section 530 Compact the base to a density equal to at least 100% of that obtained by compacting a sample of the material in accordance with AASHTO T99 as modified by the Department. Copies of these modified testing procedures are available upon request from the Materials and Tests Unit. Compact the base material at a moisture content which is approximately that required to produce the maximum density indicated by the above method. Dry or add moisture to the material when required to provide a uniformly compacted and acceptable base. 530-7 FINAL SHAPING. Shape the base to conform to the lines, grades, and typical sections shown on the plans. Take care to prevent the formation of slippage planes in the surface. Thoroughly dry, remix or remove and replace all soft or unstable areas. 530-8 SAMPLING, TESTING, AND ACCEPTANCE. Where the depth of the base is such that the placement of more than 1 layer is required for proper mixing and compacting, sample, test and have approved each layer of material prior to placing additional base material thereon. Samples will be taken from the road immediately after the base material has been spread, mixed, and shaped to a true cross section. Sampling and testing for acceptance will be as hereinafter provided. Use a sampling unit consisting of 500 linear feet (152.4 meters) when the roadway base is placed in widths 27 feet (8.2 meters) or less. Use a sampling unit consisting of 1,000 square yards (836.1 square meters) when the base is placed in widths over 27 feet (8.2 meters). As an exception to the above, when the base course is constructed utilizing materials in the existing subgrade the sampling units will be reduced to one half the size indicated above. Use a sampling unit consisting of 1,000 linear feet (304.8 meters) when placing base on a shoulder or widening of 12 feet (3.7 meters) or less. One sample will be taken from a location selected by the Engineer in each unit. The sample will be taken by cutting 3 cores for the full depth of the base course, one on the center line and one approximately 3 feet (0.9 meter) from each edge, and combining the material as one sample representing the material in that unit. If the sample tested fails to meet specification requirements, obtain 2 check samples, one on each side of the original sample at 50 feet ( 15.2 meter) spacing. The unit will be rejected unless both of these samples meet specification requirements. Where a unit is rejected, no further samples will be taken from that unit until the material is either corrected by the addition and mixing of suitable material or the rejected material is removed and replaced. Where the material source is furnished by the Contractor and the Engineer permits the Contractor to correct a rejected unit by the addition and mixing of corrective material, perform all work necessary due to the addition of the corrective material at no cost to the Department. Where the material source is furnished by the Contractor and the rejected unit is in a final layer of base, furnish and incorporate any material added to correct gradation at no cost to the Department. Resampling of a corrected or replaced unit will be preformed in the same manner as original sampling. 530-9 TOLERANCES. After final shaping and compacting of the base, the Engineer will check the surface of the base for conformance with the grade and typical section and will determine the base thickness. Construct the base with a thickness that is within a tolerance of plus or minus 1/2 inch (12.7 mm) of the base thickness required by the plans. 5-17 Section 530 Construct the base such that the maximum differential between the established grade and the base within any 100 foot (30.5 meter) section is 1/2 inch (12.7 mm). 530-10 RECONDITIONING. Where sampling and testing indicate that additional material must be added to the base to produce the required quality, add the required material, remix, recompact, and reshape the base to the required lines, grades, and typical sections. Where the material source is furnished by the Contractor, perform the work of reconditioning at no cost to the Department. 530-11 MAINTENANCE Where the base material is placed in a trench section, provide adequate drainage through the shoulders to protect the subgrade and base until such time as shoulders are completed. Maintain the surface of the base by machining, watering, and rolling or dragging when necessary to prevent damage to the base by weather or traffic. Within 24 hours of completion of the base, prime the base slopes where required or, where prime is not required, place sufficient shoulder material against the edges of the completed base to protect the base. Where the base or subgrade is damaged due to negligence on the part of the Contractor, repair the damaged area; reshape the base to the required lines, grades, and typical sections; and recompact the base to the required density at no cost to the Department. 530-12 METHOD OF MEASUREMENT. (A) Soil Type Base Material: The quantity of soil type base course material to be paid for will be the actual number of cubic yards (cubic meters) or tons (metric tons) of base course material which has been incorporated into the completed and accepted work. However, no measurement will be made of any additional material which the Engineer has permitted the Contractor to incorporate into a final base layer in the work of reconditioning where the Contractor has furnished the material source. Measurement of the base course material will be made in accordance with one of the following methods: 1. When the material is to be measured in its original position, measurement will be made by cross sections and computations will be made by the average end area method. No measurement will be made of any material excavated prior to cross sections being taken. 2. When the material is to be measured in trucks, the level to which each truck is to be loaded will be measured by the Engineer and each truck shall be suitably marked to indicate the loaded level. Each truck must bear a suitable mark or number for identification. Load each truck to at least its measured load level when it arrives at the point of delivery. The recorded quantity of material will be adjusted by making a 25 percent deduction to allow for shrinkage, and the adjusted quantity will be the quantity to be paid for. 3. Where the contract calls for the material to be paid for by the ton (metric ton), the material will be measured by being weighed in trucks on certified platform scales or other certified weighing devices. No deduction will be made for any moisture contained in the material at the time of weighing. (B) Reconditioning Road: When material sources are furnished by the Department and the Engineer directs the incorporation of additional material into a rejected sampling unit, the work of reconditioning as provided in Article 530-10 will be measured as provided below. 5-18 Section 530 When material sources are furnished by the Contractor, no measurement of reconditioning will be made. The quantity of reconditioning to be paid for will be the actual number of units of 1,000 square yards (square meters) of base course over which the work of reconditioning has been acceptably performed. The length will be the actual length measured along the centerline of the surface of the base. The width will be the width required by the plans or as directed by the Engineer measured across the top surface of the base. 530-13 BASIS OF PAYMENT.

We have a Site Investigation Report that was prepared by Barnes, Ferland, and Associates. You can visually see that the well borings from inside the landfill were placed in 5-gal buckets which were then placed in yellow drums. These drums were shipped to TSCA permitted storage at Ecoflo in Greensboro. The drums used outside the landfill were black. Limited sampled was done on the boring soils for wells outside the landfill. There wasn't a need to do so. I have date which I am not sending that shows test results related to the type soil found at different levels which they drilled the wells. You are welcome to have that information if you wish. The analyses that I could find are attached. Not all of the new well boring soils were samples. The ones that were are listed about halfway down the page. All were less than the detection limit used for PCBs and pesticides. The groundwater from all the monitoring wells was sampled. Those results are at the bottom of the sheet. All were less than the detection limit. Those wells have been sampled twice a year since they were put in. No PCBs have been detected. I can provide that information also if it will help. ai-:ia····· ---····-··· -----s~. 1 <0.10 ----------·--·· ·-· --··----------·--·------·------. -------,--CB Sed.2 <0.10 MS Sed.3 <0.10 f---MR Sed.4 <0.10 AR+ Sed.5 <0.10 --·-· ·------·-NCB Sed. 6 <0.10 --~---SD Sed. 7 <0.10 PiR Above Br ------------·-----·~ --------• --------RCUS <0.10 ---CD Below B RCUS <0.10 -Surface Soil DDffi BJ SurS-1 <0.10 RB SurS-2 <0.10 -SB SurS-3 <0.10 MBR SurS-4 <0.10 -·--· --------BR SurS-5 <0.10 Background Surface Sc ppm TMSS OSW-3 <0.10 <0.20 <0.20 <0.10 <0.10 <0.10 <0.10 <2.0 <1.0 <0.10 <0.10 LESS OSW-2 <0.10 <0.20 <0.20 <0.10 <0.10 <0.10 <0.10 <2.0 <1.0 <0,10 <0.10 HESS OSW-4 <0.10 <0.20 <0.20 <0.10 <0.10 <0.10 <0.10 <2.0 <1.0 <0.10 <0.10 Surface Water DDffi RSB SW-1 <0.0001 KB urns <0.0001 1MB UTUS <0.0001 ISB RCDS <0.0001 DA Above RCUS <0.0001 ---------· CA Below RCUS <0.0001 DJ+ SW-2 <0.0001 -?> Well Boring Soils IPPm PMB Davis-BG <0.10 HM MW-7 <0.10 <0.2 <0.2 <0.1 <2.0 <1.0 <0.1 <0_1 WM MW-11 <0.10 <0.2 <0.2 <0.1 <0.1 <2.0 <1.0 <0.1 <0.1 <0.1 --KM MW-1 <0.10 <0.2 <0.2 <0.1 <0.1 <2.0 <1.0 <0.1 <0.1 <0.1 OM MW-12 <0.10 <0.2 <0.2 <0.1 <0.1 <2.0 <1.0 <0.1 <0.1 <0.1 MM MW-5 <0.10 <0.2 <0.2 <0.1 <0.1 <2.0 <1.0 <0.1 <0.1 <0.1 TM OSW-3 Davis-BG LE OSW-2 Alston-BG HE OSW-4 O'Neal-BG Landfill Solis DDm JABT• North BorinQ 44.1 JABB• North Boring 90.3 JABP• North BorinQ 60.7 NIAT• South Boring 267.8 NIAB• South Boring 385.7 NIAP• South Boring 150.5 OMA SEEP <0.10 <0.20 <0.20 <0.10 <0.10 <0.10 <0.10 <2.0 <1.0 <0.10 <0.10 -SLB+ Pond 3 <0.10 AB Pond 2 <0.10 LB+ Pond 1 <0.10 PJD Sand Filter <0.10 <0.20 <0.10 <2.0 <1.0 <0.1 <0.1 '. • _, ~--.... ............. ...,..., .... ~ JABP* North Boring NIAT* South Boring NIAB* South Boring NIAP* South Boring OMA SEEP SLB+ Pond 3 AB Pond 2 LB+ Pond 1 PJD Sand Filter ADD Carbon Filter Landfill Leachate IPPm QAR+ EZM NOV Groundwater BB JOH ALB RPAB RBAB+ Exist.

Dear Mr. Kearney: The Solid Waste Section(SWS) has received the Land Clearing and Inert Debris landfill notification signed by you on 7 August 2001, recorded by Warren County on 7 August 2001 and received by the SWS on 7 August 2001. Disposal activities must remain under 2 acres, to operate under the provisions of this notification. An individual permit from the Section is not required for these disposal activities, and the following applies: (a). The owner of the land where the landfill is located must notify the Division on a prescribed form, duly signed, notarized, and recorded as per Sub-item (2)(b) of this Rule. The operator of the landfill , if different from the land owner, shall also sign the notification form . (b). The owner must file the prescribed notification form for recordation in the Register of Deeds' Office. The Register of Deeds shall index the notification in the grantor index under the name of the owner of the land in the county or counties in which the land is located. A copy of the recorded notification, affixed with the Register's seal and the date, book and page number of recording shall be sent to the Division of Waste Management. (c). If this site is a existing permitted mine, the following items should be addressed: 1. Contact Land Quality at 919-571-4700 for amendments to the reclamation plan as addressed in the mining permit; 1646 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1646 Phone:919-733-0692 \ FAX: 919-733-4810 \ lnternet:\vww.enr.state.nc.us/ AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY\ Ar-FIRMATIVE ACTION EMPLOYER-50% RECYCLED/ 10% POST CONSUMER PAPER Mr. Kearney Page 2 August13,2001 2. Identify the site property lines with flagging, stakes or paint indicating lines on trees that represent the property boundary for visual verification; 3. Place stakes or posts at the 100 foot buffer line for the limits of LCID waste disposal from property lines, buildings and wells(on or off-site). Offset stakes or posts can be used outside the limits of the mine, so sighting from one marker to another can be done to insure that the 100 foot buffer to the property lines, buildings and wells, is not encroached upon; 4. The void area between the 100 foot buffer and the limits of the mining excavation may be filled with inert materials consisting of soil(NOT INCLUDING ROOT MAT), rock, clean(non-painted) concrete/brick/block; 5. LCID MATERIAL SHALL BE PLACED ABOVE THE SEASONAL HIGH GROUNDWATER TABLE. IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT AT LEAST ONE FOOT BE ADDED TO THE SEASONAL HIGH GROUNDWATER TABLE TO TAKE INTO ACCOUNT FUTURE SEASONAL FLUCTUATIONS; IF FUTURE EXPANSION OF THIS DISPOSAL SITE IS TO OCCUR(GREATER THAN 2 ACRES), THEN A FOUR FOOT SEPARATION TO THE SEASONAL HIGH WATER TABLE IS ENCOURAGED; 6. WASTE SHALL NOT BE DISPOSED OF IN WATER OR ALLOW WATER TO IMPOUND IN OR AROUND LCID WASTE. An outlet to the mine may be needed to allow storm water to leave the mined area, contact Land Quality if this is contrary to your approved mining permit; 7.
