Peerless Master Cleaners and Dyers /24020-20-092/17November2023
ENVIRONMENTAL INFORMATION SUMMARY
most recent operations included offices, a violin maker, a
basement bar, and an outdoor equipment and repair facility
that contained a paint room. A buried structure, likely a vault
or tank, is present on the southeastern portion of the
Brownfields Property on former PIN 1703499022. The buried
structure is located south of the former outdoor equipment
and repair facility building.
Four unoccupied commercial buildings with associated paved
parking areas (former PINS: 1703498135, 1703498193,
Current Operations/Activities
1703499156 and 1703499022). The remainder of the site
consists of paved parking and vacant land (former PINs:
1703497166, 1703488949, 1703498033, 1703497096 and
1703497057).
Soil: Several compounds including arsenic, benzo(a)pyrene,
hexavalent chromium, naphthalene, and 1,2,4-
trimethylbenzene were detected in soil above their respective
DEQ Preliminary Soil Remedial Goals (PSRGs) for
residential land uses, with 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene driving the
risk for the non -cancer hazard index for direct exposure to
residential soil of 1.1. Other compounds were detected in
onsite soils, including benzo(g,h,i)perylene, 4-
isopropyltoluene, and phenanthrene, but there are no
established PSRGs for these compounds.
Groundwater: Site groundwater results indicated
concentrations of chlorinated and petroleum volatile organic
compounds (VOCs), a semi-VOC, and metals in excess of
Contaminated Media
their respective NC 2L groundwater standards. Various
groundwater contaminants detected in 2022 at the
Brownfields Property exceed the Residential Vapor Intrusion
Screening Levels (VISLs) for VOCs in groundwater.
Sub -Slab Soil Gas: Benzene, chloroform, 1,4-
dichlorobenzene, tetrachloroethene (PCE) and trichloroethene
(TCE) exceeded their respective residential VISLs for soil
vapor. Other compounds detected in the sub -slab vapor
samples include acetone, 1,3-dichlorobenzene, cis-1,2
dichloroethene, ethanol, 4-ethyltoluene,
trichlorofluoromethane, and 2,2,4-trimethylpentane, but there
are no established VISLs for these compounds.
Exterior Soil Gas: Benzene, chloroform, 1,2-dichloro ro ane,
Peerless Master Cleaners and Dyers /24020-20-092/17November2023
ENVIRONMENTAL INFORMATION SUMMARY
and ethylbenzene were detected above the residential VISLs.
Other compounds detected include acetone, ethanol, 4-
ethyltoluene, trichlorofluoromethane, and 2,2,4-
trimethylpentane; however, residential VISLs have not been
established for these compounds.
Indoor Air: This type of sample was not collected on the
Brownfields Property.
Surface Water/Sediment: No surface water is located on the
Brownfields Property.

Future onsite residents, visitors, onsite workers, construction
workers, and trespassers.
i. Water supply wells: No public or irrigation wells were
identified in the surrounding area, and the potable water
supply for the Brownfields Property and the surrounding
areas is a municipal source.
ii. Residential structures, churches, or childcare centers: Two,

375 feet to the northwest (610 Hillsborough Street) and 475
feet to the southeast (317 W. Morgan Street) of the
Brownfields Property. A middle school is present
approximately 175 feet east (401 Hillsborough Street).
iii. Surface water: The nearest surface water is located
approximately 3,500 feet to the south-southwest.
Groundwater: PCE, petroleum hydrocarbon, and metal
contaminants of concern (COCs) are known to be present in
onsite groundwater; however, based on the distribution of the
Potential Offsite Migration
COCs in groundwater and groundwater flow directions, an
Pathways
offsite groundwater concern has not been identified.
Soil Vapor: Petroleum and chlorinated volatile organic
compound COCs have been identified onsite; however, based
on the distribution of COCs in soil vapor and the calculated
hazard indices, a soil vapor concern has not been identified
for offsite pathways.

21. 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
23
Peerless Master Cleaners and Dyers /24020-20-092/17November2023
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
environment, in which case Prospective Developer shall be liable for remediation of the areas of
the Brownfields Property, remediation of which is required by this Agreement, to the extent
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
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.

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
24
Peerless Master Cleaners and Dyers /24020-20-092/17November2023
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.
g. DEQ obtains new information about a contaminant associated with the
Brownfields Property or exposures at or around the Brownfields Property that raises the risk to
public health, or the environment associated with the Brownfields Property beyond an acceptable
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.
22. Except as may be provided herein, DEQ reserves its rights against Prospective
Developer as to liabilities beyond the scope of the Act.
23. This Agreement does not waive any applicable requirement to obtain a permit,
license or certification, or to comply with any and all other applicable law, including the North
Carolina Environmental Policy Act, NCGS § 113A-1, et SeMc .
24. Consistent with NCGS § 130A-310.33, the liability protections provided herein, and

Note: Acetone was detected in every sub -slab sample collected; however, because acetone is a common
analytical laboratory introduced compound, the soil gas screening level for acetone is no longer being
published. The most recent Residential Soil Gas Screening Level for acetone was 220,000 µg/m3, and
none of the detected concentrations exceeded this limit. Therefore, acetone data are not summarized on

Screening levels displayed for non -carcinogens are for a hazard quotient equal to 0.2. Screening levels
displayed for carcinogens are for a 1.0E-6 lifetime incremental cancer risk.
SE -No screening level established.
- The reported concentration is an estimated value between the method detection limit and the laborato
reporting limit.
ote: Acetone was detected in every sub -slab sample collected; however, because acetone is a common
alytical laboratory introduced compound, the soil gas screening level for acetone is no longer being
ublished. The most recent Residential Soil Gas Screening Level for acetone was 220,000 ug/m', and
lone of the detected concentrations exceeded this limit. Therefore acetone data are not summarized on
his table but remain available in the reports related to this property.
