ADDITIONAL COMMENTS:
1. The “Family Dollar” structural fill project was completed in 2006 located in Weldon, NC near the intersection
of 3rd Street and Highway 301. According to the Halifax County Tax Assessor, the structural fill is located on
2 parcels identified as 1202019 (western parcel owned by HP Weldon FDLLC) and 1200321 (eastern parcel
owned by Eastern Pride, Inc.). The Family Dollar, which is located on the western parcel, is addressed as 210
E 2nd St, Weldon, NC 27890.

2. Approximately 12,080 tons of coal combustion products were utilized in the construction of the structural fill.
The structural fill operation was performed by Plumbline Corporation. The coal combustion products were
generated by the Roanoke Valley Energy facility in Weldon, NC. Ash was placed within the 40-foot drainage
easement adjacent to 3rd Street.

3. Approximately half of the properties on which the structural fill is located is currently being used for retail and
associated asphalt covered parking. The developed portion consists of a building, asphalt paved parking areas
and areas of landscaping. The undeveloped portion is vegetated but an unpaved area is subject to vehicle traffic
which has the possibility to compromise the cover and expose the underlying ash.

4. The structural fill shall be covered with a minimum of 12-inches compacted earth and an additional 6-inches of
surface soil capable of supporting native vegetation as per 15A NCAC 13B .1705(j).

The coal ash structural fill spans both the parcels in red. A Family Dollar store is located on the parcel on the
left.

2010. The recordation can be found in Book 2321, Page 166.

6. Part of the structural fill adjacent to the paved area is subject to vehicular traffic. Although gravel appears to
have been placed in this area previously, rutting of the soil cover is beginning to occur. Coal ash was not
observed at the time of the inspection, however measures to limit the impacts of vehicles are strongly advised.
It is strongly recommended that the property owners coordinate to either limit vehicular access or
reinforce the area with additional gravel or pavement.
