NOTE: Unless soil will be transported offsite for disposal in a permitted facility under applicable
regulations, no contaminated or potentially contaminated soil may leave the site without approval
from the brownfields program. Failure to obtain approval may violate a brownfields agreement,
endangering liability protections and making said action subject to enforcement. Justifications
provided below must be approved by the Program in writing prior to completing transport activities.
Transport and dispose of impacted soil offsite (documentation of final disposition must be sent to
Brownfields Project Manager)
Landfill – analytical program determined by landfill
☐ Landfarm or other treatment facility Click here to enter text.
☐ Use as Beneficial Fill Offsite – provide justification: Click here to enter text.
☐ Use as Beneficial Fill at another Suitable Brownfields Site – (Note: a determination that a
site is a “Suitable Brownfields” site will require, at a minimum, that similar concentrations of the same
or similar contaminants already exist at both sites, use of impacted soil as beneficial soil will not
increase the potential for risk to human health and the environment at that site, and that notarized
documentation of the acceptance of such soil from the property owner of the receiving site is
provided to Brownfields. Provide justification: PD does not plan to take any soil offsite. If, however, it
is required, the soil will be properly tested and sent to a Subtitle D landfill for use as daily cover.

EMP Form ver.1, October 23, 2014
MANAGEMENT OF UTILITY TRENCHES
☐ Install liner between native impacted soils and base of utility trench before filling with clean fill
(Preferred)
☐ Last out, first in principle for impacted soils (if soil can safely be reused onsite and is not a
hazardous waste), i.e., impacted soils are placed back at approximately the depths they were
removed from such that impacted soil is not placed at a greater depth than the original depth from
which it was excavated.
☐ Evaluate whether necessary to install barriers in conduits to prevent soil vapor transport, and/or
degradation of conduit materials due to direct impact with contaminants? Result: Yes □ No □
If no, include rationale here. Click here to enter text.
If yes, provide specifications on barrier materials

does not exceed residential RGs and no VOCs are present in soil on this site.
PART 2. GROUNDWATER – Please fill out the information below and attach figure showing
distribution of groundwater contaminants at site
What is the depth to groundwater at the Brownfields Property? Approximately 8 feet below ground
surface in the northern part of the property to around 1 foot bgs in the southern portion of the
property.
Is groundwater known to be contaminated by onsite ☐ offsite ☐ both ☐ or unknown
sources? Describe source(s): Former wood treatment operations at the property.
What is the direction of groundwater flow at the Brownfields Property? South to southeast
Will groundwater likely be encountered during planned redevelopment activities? ☐ Yes No
If yes, describe these activities: Groundwater will not likely be encountered during the excavation for
the hardwood sawmill footers. The depth to the seasonal high water table in the vicinity of the
hardwood sawmill is approximately 5 feet – well below the depth of the footers. The depth required for
the pine piling mill footers is not know at this time. However, the location of the mill will be moved such
that groundwater is not encountered. The PD will use the historical depth to groundwater data for the
REC program groundwater monitoring to determine the seasonal high water table..
In the event that contaminated groundwater is encountered during redevelopment activities (even if
no is checked above), list activities for contingent management of groundwater (e.g., dewatering of
groundwater from excavations or foundations, containerizing, offsite disposal, discharge to sanitary
sewer, or sampling procedures): Although groundwater is not anticipated to be encountered, if it is
encountered and it is necessary to extract the groundwater for the mill footers, the water will be
containerized, tested for arsenic and chromium and disposed of in a manner similar to the groundwater
investigation‐derived waste collected during the periodic groundwater sampling as part of the REC
program

Addendum to Environmental Management Plan
Evaluation of Soil from Off‐Site Sources
Enfield Timber/Former Quality Forest Products Site
Enfield, North Carolina
The North Carolina Brownfields Program (NCBP) requires analysis of fill soil to demonstrate that it
meets acceptable standards and can be considered clean for use at the Brownfields property. Although
the NCBP is considered to be a redevelopment program, testing backfill material is not required in the
Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) regulatory programs other than to state that
clean backfill should be utilized. We also understand the desire of the NCBP to not place contaminated
soil from an off-site source onto a brownfields property. The two scenarios outlined below will be
implemented to ensure the backfill material meets the intent of the NCBP requirement.
Fill Material from Barrow Pit – Backfill material obtained from a commercial barrow pit using virgin
material will not be tested. Barrow pits of this nature are used daily for residential and commercial
projects and are acceptable sources of clean fill.
Fill Material from Construction/Grading Sites –Backfill material that is obtained from off-site
construction or grading sites or sources other than a barrow pit will be tested.
The soil samples selected for laboratory analysis will be submitted to a DENR‐certified analytical
laboratory for analysis for semivolatile organic compounds (SVOCs) according to SW-846 Method
8270D and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) according to Method 5035B (prep) with Method 8260B
(testing). Metals are generally naturally occurring, and if the fill soil is from a different underlying
lithology, its metals concentrations may differ enough from the background concentrations at the former
Quality Forest Products site such that it would be deemed unsuitable, even though the metals are not from
contaminant releases. We will, however, also test any soil to be brought onsite for total arsenic to ensure
it does not exceed the 35 mg/kg calculated residential remedial goal for this site.
When possible, depending on the construction/grading site, the environmental consultant (EC) will first
estimate stockpile volumes of approximately 1,000 cubic yards in size and mark them off with pin flags
and string. The attached figure from the UST Section’s Guidelines for Sampling I (December 2013) will
aid in the EC’s volumetric estimation. The EC will first collect two grab samples for VOC testing from
two of six sample locations where they will collect aliquots that are approximately equal in size. The EC
will collect the samples for VOC testing prior to homogenizing the aliquots into a composite sample.
The locations of the aliquots will be randomly selected, and the soil samples will be collected using a
hand auger from different depths and locations within the stockpile area being tested. Aliquots used for
VOC grab sampling will be taken at least 12 inches below the stockpile surface. After the VOC samples
are collected, the EC will then create a composite sample by homogenizing aliquots in a pre-cleaned
Pyrex dish with a stainless steel spoon. The composite sample will be transferred to the appropriate
container supplied by the laboratory. All samples will be placed immediately on ice and then submitted
to the laboratory under chain-of-custody. The hand auger and homogenization equipment will be
decontaminated between stockpile samples. The EC will provide documentation to the NCBP, including
all analytical data, when soil from construction/grading sources are utilized at the
Appendix 2
Appendix 2
Environmental Management Plan
Contingency Plan to Address Newly Discovered Contaminant Sources
Enfield Timber/Former Quality Forest Products Site
Enfield, North Carolina
During site-redevelopment activities, previously undiscovered contaminant sources may be encountered.
If the general contractor (GC) encounters a contaminant source, the prospective developer (PD) or the
environmental consultant (EC) will notify the applicable agencies within the North Carolina Department
of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) within 48 hours of discovery, if only by email. These
sources may include, but are not necessarily limited to: USTs and fuel lines, buried drums or containers of
unknown materials, and areas of buried waste materials/landfills.
If the GC encounters previously undiscovered contaminant sources during construction, the GC will
temporarily suspend activities in the area. The GC will immediately notify the EC and the PD. The EC
will investigate the area, evaluate the waste materials and/or contaminated media in the area, and
determine the proper means to manage these materials. The EC will contact the NCBP and provide
documentation of the finding and subsequent actions taken to manage these materials. Depending upon
site conditions, confirmatory samples may be collected by the EC from the newly-discovered contaminant
source area(s) for laboratory analysis. All samples will be submitted to a DENR‐certified analytical
laboratory for analysis. Analytical methods to be employed for these samples may include one or more of
the following:
VOCs by Method 8260;
SVOCs by Method 8270; PAHs by Method 8270 SIM
RCRA Metals by Methods 6010/7471;

There are no known underground storage tanks (USTs) at the site, and none are expected due to the
shallow water table conditions. There were, however, ASTs previously used at the site. If fuel lines or
USTs are encountered during excavation, the PD will manage the tank(s) or piping as required under the
guidelines of the UST Section of DENR. Although the costs for assessment and remediation of
contamination from USTs discovered during remedial activities will not be eligible for reimbursement
under the UST Trust Fund, the PD will address historical UST issues by following the guidelines of the
UST Section. The EC will notify the City of Raleigh Fire Department to ascertain the necessary permits
to remove the UST(s). The PD or the EC will notify the NCBP of a UST discovery within 48 hours, if
only by email.
Residual petroleum‐contaminated media (i.e. soil and/or groundwater) on the Property can be handled
under the NCBP’s land-use restrictions rather than the UST Section’s Notice of Residual Petroleum. The
PD will submit copies of all reports and correspondence relating to such closure to the NCBP.
2.0 Buried Drums
If the GC discovers buried drums of unknown materials at the Property, the PD or the EC will notify
DENR within 48 hours of discovery, if only by email. The EC will evaluate the drums for contents and
obvious integrity issues, labeling, etc. Once the EC determines the condition of the drums, they will be
either removed immediately for proper offsite disposal or removed from the area and temporarily
relocated to a staging area in a designated location of the Property with proper secondary containment for
sampling, and proper disposal.
The EC will evaluate the soil that surrounds these features for stains, odor, or other evidence of
contamination. Based on field observations, the EC may elect to collect post‐excavation confirmation
samples from areas where contaminated soil was excavated for laboratory analysis by the analytical
parameters presented above. The EC will provide the PD, its contractor, and the NCBP copies of field-
monitoring and analytical data, with recommendations to address contaminated soil.
3.0 Buried Waste Materials
If buried waste materials are discovered at the Property, the PD or the EC will notify DENR within 48
hours of discovery, if only by email. The EC will evaluate the material to characterize the nature of the
waste material. If buried wastes are encountered, the EC will evaluate the soil that surrounds these
features for stains, odor, or other evidence of contamination. Based on field observations, the EC may
elect to collect post‐excavation confirmation samples from areas where contaminated soil was excavated
for laboratory analysis by the analytical parameters presented above. The EC will provide the PD, its
contractor, and the NCBP copies of field-monitoring and analytical data, with recommendations to
address contaminated soil as applicable.
