1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 General
This 2017 Removal Action Completion Report (2017 RACR) has been prepared on behalf of ExxonMobil
Environmental Services Company (EMES) by Arcadis G&M of North Carolina, Inc. (Arcadis) to document
the soil removal activities conducted at the former Virginia-Carolina Chemical Corporation (VCC) Site
located in Charlotte, North Carolina (the Site). In accordance with an Administrative Settlement Agreement
and Order on Consent (AOC; Docket No. CERCLA-04-2013-3762) between United States Environmental
Protection Agency (USEPA) and ExxonMobil Oil Corporation, the first phase of soil removal was conducted
between November 2013 and March 2014. The objective was to remove accessible arsenic- and lead-
containing soils (i.e., those soils not covered by buildings or asphalt/concrete pavement) above the site-
specific action levels (SSALs) associated with the former fertilizer manufacturing activities and restore the
Site to pre-excavation conditions, as appropriate. The details of the first phase of soil removal is described
in the Removal Action Completion Report, Former Virginia-Carolina Chemical Corporation Site, Charlotte
North Carolina (Arcadis 2015).
This 2017 RACR documents the second phase of soil removal activities conducted on one property from
April 2017 through June 2017. Soil previously under buildings and asphalt/concrete pavement that were
not removed during the first phase of the soil removal were now accessible during redevelopment being
conducted by the property owner.
Unless otherwise specified in this 2017 RACR, soil removal activities were conducted in accordance with
the Supplemental Soil Sampling Report/Removal Action Work Plan (SSSR/RAWP; Arcadis, 2017a). The
SSSR/RAWP was approved by Mr. Ken Mallary of the USEPA (pers. com., April 3, 2017) and Mr. David
Mattison of the North Carolina Department of Environment Quality (NCDEQ) (pers. com., April 4, 2017).
1.2 Site Description
The Site is located in Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina; as shown on the United States
Geological Survey 7.5-minute quadrangle maps for East Charlotte, North Carolina (Figure 1-1). The current
street address that most closely matches the former acid chamber location is 349 West Tremont Avenue
(Figure 1-2). The majority of the Site is occupied by buildings and is hardscaped with asphalt/concrete
driveways and parking lots as shown on Figure 1-2. No surface water features are present on or
immediately adjacent to the Site. The Site is surrounded by high density residential, commercial, and light
industrial facilities. The approximate geographical location of the center of the Site is at 35.21020° North
Latitude and 80.86517° West Longitude (North American Datum of 1983).
VCC operated a former phosphate fertilizer plant at the Site. Fertilizer manufacturing began prior to 1890
and continued until sometime between 1929 and 1934. Waste byproducts associated with the fertilizer
manufacturing process contained elevated concentrations of arsenic and lead.
VCC owned the Site from approximately 1926 until 1970. The former VCC property has since been
subdivided and owned by several entities. In January 2017, property with PIN # 12103217 (Figure 1-2) was

purchased by P7/PSREG Tremont, LLC and redevelopment was planned under a Brownfields Agreement
(Brownfields Project Number: 18004-14-060). The two buildings on this property were demolished in early
2017 and the property is currently undergoing redevelopment.
1.3 Report Organization
The introduction provided in this section is followed in Section 2 by a summary of the soil removal,
stabilization, post-excavation sampling, and restoration activities completed at the Site. Section 3 presents
the updated Post-Removal Action Site Control Plan. Section 4 presents an overall project summary and

2.4 Soil Excavation and Stabilization Activities
2017 soil removal activities resulted in the excavation and off-site disposal of 30,825 tons of soil/debris from
21 Removal Areas that encompass approximately 2.4 acres. The areas were based on a number of factors
including the depth of arsenic and/or lead concentrations above the SSALs, the location of adjacent soil
borings, the location of distinguishing features such as the footprint of existing structures, and professional
judgement. Figure 2-1 shows the excavation limits of the 21 Removal Areas where impacted materials were
removed and Appendix E includes a table with the approximate volume of soil removed from each area.
Soil removal activities are described in the sections below and field note documentation compiled during
removal activities is included in Appendix A. Field note documentation consists of weekly reports that
document significant work activities completed each week, storm water inspection forms, and the
approximate location and field screening result of x-ray fluorescence (XRF) readings.
2.4.1 Mobilization and Site Preparation
Prior to soil excavation activities, equipment and personnel were mobilized to the Site and the removal
areas were prepared as appropriate. Site preparation activities generally included locating and marking
subsurface and overhead utilities; surveying the boundaries and existing topography of the removal areas;
obtaining photo and video documentation of existing property conditions; setting up an office trailer,
equipment areas and material staging areas; and the installation of erosion and sedimentation controls
(E&SC) in, or adjacent to, active work areas. A photo log documenting pre-removal, construction, and post-
restoration property conditions is presented as Appendix B.
2.4.2 Site Security and Traffic Control
Construction traffic entered and exited the work areas via West Tremont Avenue (Figure 2-1). Construction
traffic was directed by signs and personnel as needed during the excavation activities. Control of the work
areas was maintained using 6-foot temporary chain-link construction fence. Signs were also posted at
construction entrances to discourage entry by unauthorized persons.

2.4.3 Erosion and Sedimentation Control
E&SC measures were installed in accordance with the Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan: Soil
Removal Action – 327 and 349 West Tremont Ave., Charlotte, North Carolina (Arcadis, 2017), provided to
the NCDEQ and the City of Charlotte prior to the onset of construction. E&SC measures generally included
straw wattles, hay bales, drop inlet protection for catch basins/stormwater inlets, silt fence, and the
placement and maintenance of a tread cleaning plate at the construction exit. In addition, impacted soils
were loaded into dump trucks that were tarped, and truck tailgates/tires were brushed off prior to exiting the
Site.
2.4.4 Concrete Removal and Recycling
Concrete building slabs within the removal areas were broken up prior to soil removal activities.
Approximately 1,530 tons of concrete debris were shipped to C&M Recycling, Inc. located in Charlotte, NC
for recycling. The disposal summary log (Appendix E) includes the date, truck number, truck type, weight,
and final destination of each load of concrete shipped off-site. Scanned copies of haul tickets are also
included in Appendix E.
2.4.5 Soil Excavation and Handling
Soil removal activities conducted in 2017 were completed in 21 Removal Areas where arsenic and/or lead
were detected at concentrations above the USEPA-approved SSALs. SSALs for this site were 27 milligrams
per kilogram (mg/kg) for arsenic and 270 mg/kg for lead. The removal areas cover approximately 2.4 acres
and are presented on Figure 2-1. Figure 2-2 shows the approximate depths for all soil removal activities
completed at the site.
Excavation work was performed using a combination of mechanical excavators and hand digging. Hand
tools were used to remove soil adjacent to subsurface utilities. Pot-holing was conducted to determine the
location and orientation of subsurface utilities in the removal areas. In general, soil was removed to the
limits described in the SSSR/RAWP. The excavation depths were based on either the maximum depth at
which arsenic and/or lead were detected above the SSALs, or the presumed depth to which soils may be
disturbed during site redevelopment activities; whichever was shallower. In areas where the maximum
excavation depths were based on site redevelopment activities, soils were excavated at least 12 inches
below the depth to which soils would be potentially be disturbed by property redevelopment. Additional
excavation was performed as needed (both horizontally and vertically) based on visual observation of
impacted materials (e.g., magenta-stained soil) and the results of the confirmation soil sampling program
(see Section 2.5.1). In some of the removal areas (i.e., Removal Areas 2, 6 through 8, 12 through 16, and
19) impacted materials were left in place because soil was excavated to the maximum depth required for
Site redevelopment. A demarcation liner consisting of orange construction fence or geotextile was placed
at the base of the excavation in these areas to serve as a visual indicator to persons that may perform
future subsurface work in these areas (Figures 2-2 and 2-3).
2.4.6 Soil Stabilization
Soil stabilization was performed, as needed, to facilitate the disposal of excavated materials in a RCRA
Subtitle D landfill. The purpose of the stabilization activities was to reduce the leachable concentrations of
2017 REMOVAL ACTION COMPLETION REPORT

7
lead to less than 5 milligrams per liter (mg/L). Waste characterization sampling was performed in advance
of removal activities to identify soil areas that contained toxicity characteristic leaching procedure (TCLP)
lead and/or arsenic concentrations at or above 5 mg/L. TCLP arsenic concentrations were less than 5 mg/L;
however, TCLP lead concentrations in three samples were greater than 5 mg/L. These areas were identified
in the SSSR/RAWP and are depicted on Figure 2-1.
Stabilization activities were performed by adding a proprietary granular stabilization agent known as
EnviroBlend® to the soil stockpiles in batches. EnviroBlend® is a fine granular, dry material that is a complex
calcium silicate-based additive. A Safety Data Sheet for EnviroBlend® is included in Appendix C. The
EnviroBlend® material was delivered to the site in 1-ton super sacks and added at a target ratio of
approximately 1 percent. Excavated materials were managed and stabilized in batch sizes of approximately
225 tons. Overall, approximately 17 tons of EnviroBlend® was used to stabilize a total of approximately
1,800 tons of soil from Removal Areas 7, 10, and 16, resulting in a final mixture ratio of approximately 0.9%
by weight. After the appropriate amount of EnviroBlend® was added to a soil stockpile, an excavator bucket
was used to homogenize the mixture. Upon completion, stabilized soils were combined into piles of
approximately 450 tons and composite samples of the stabilized materials were collected and analyzed to
confirm that TCLP concentrations of arsenic and lead were below 5 mg/L. Soil sampling procedures and
analytical results for stabilization activities are described in Section 2.5.2.
2.4.7 Dust Monitoring Program
During soil excavation and loading activities a dust monitoring program was implemented in accordance
with the Site Specific Health and Safety Plan, Former VCC Phosphate/Fertilizer Plant, Charlotte, North
Carolina (Arcadis, 2017b). The purpose of this program was to evaluate potential employee exposures and
prevent potential impacts to the community. During excavation activities, ambient air samples were
collected using air sampling pumps with pre-weighed filters and were submitted for laboratory analysis of
total dust, lead, and arsenic via National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health Methods 0500 and
7300, respectively. Each sampling location was also monitored for total particulates in real time using a
MIE DataRAM™ monitoring device. Samples were collected daily over 8-hour shifts during excavation
activities from the following general locations:
1 downwind of the excavations and soil stabilization;
1 upwind of excavation/stabilization area; and
1 personal monitor on personnel working at the site.
Air samples were collected for 5 consecutive days and then continued at a rate of approximately 20%
(roughly 1 sample every 5 workdays) during removal activities. Results collected over the course of the
project were compared to the site-specific action levels for total dust [5.0 milligrams per cubic meter
(mg/m3)], arsenic (0.005 mg/m3), and lead (0.03 mg/m3). Total dust, arsenic, and lead concentrations did
not exceed the site-specific action levels throughout the project. A summary of the results and the laboratory
reports are provided in Appendix D.
MIE DataRAMs™ were monitored regularly during each day of soil disturbance activities and appropriate
dust control measures (i.e., water suppression) were implemented to control dust emissions during those
instances when elevated dust concentrations were documented. The results were compared to the site-
specific action levels of 0.15 mg/m3 for perimeter areas. During the course of the project, average real-time
2017 REMOVAL ACTION COMPLETION REPORT

8
dust concentrations did not exceed the site-specific action level at the perimeters. The MIE DataRAMs™
output data files are provided in Appendix D.
2.4.8 Health and Safety Program Implementation
All work at the Site was performed under a Health and Safety program meeting the requirements of 29
Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 1910 and 29 CFR 1926. All on-site project personnel who worked in
areas where they may be exposed to site contaminants were trained as required by the Occupational Safety
and Health Administration (OSHA) Regulation 29 CFR 1910.120 – Hazardous Waste Operation and
Emergency response. In addition, all on-site personnel participated in the Loss Prevention System (LPS)
program. LPS is a behavioral-based program which aims to eliminate accidents, environmental incidents,
and deviations from prescribed work procedures. LPS includes participation in a classroom training session.
Additionally, LPS activity on the project consisted of the following tool usage during the course of the project:
34 Job Safety Analyses (JSAs); JSAs are written task procedures developed by job experts for each
high-risk task that outline the job steps, hazards related to each step, and mitigation actions to avoid
accidents and injuries.
Continuous Safe Performance Self Assessments (SPSAs); SPSA are performed throughout the day by
employees and are a mental exercise where task hazards related to a task, or changing conditions, are
evaluated and mitigated to prevent accidents and injuries.
10 Loss Prevention Observations (LPOs); LPOs are scheduled observations of specific tasks where
peers or supervisors observe work being done to verify compliance with JSAs and safe work practices,
and spot check the use of the SPSA. LPO results are reviewed with the staff involved during feedback
sessions, and then lessons learned are relayed to the entire project team through daily safety meetings
and JSA revisions.
4 Near Loss Investigations (NLIs); NLIs are investigation tools that target observed events where no
accident or injury occurred, but where under slightly different circumstances an accident or injury could
have occurred. NLIs are learning tools shared with the project team to promote safety across the
project, lessons learned from NLIs are incorporated into daily safety meetings, JSA revisions, and
SPSAs.
Full-time Health and Safety staff were onsite at all times during the work and coordinated all LPS tool usage
and H&S program implementation. A Health and Safety Plan was prepared by Certified Industrial
Hygienists. All employees were required to receive baseline and annual (if applicable) medical
examinations and be enrolled in an ongoing medical surveillance program as required by 29 CFR 1910 and
29 CFR 1926. All personnel were also required to complete drug and alcohol testing. The RAC was also
required to comply with the U.S. Department of Labor Safety and Health Regulations for construction
promulgated under the OSHA of 1970 (PL 91-596) and under Section 107 of the Contract Work Hours and
Safety Standards Act (PL 91-54).
2.4.9 Water Management
Stormwater and surface water were managed during the removal action as needed. Surface water runoff
generated outside of the removal areas was not considered to be impacted and, to the extent practical, was
2017 REMOVAL ACTION COMPLETION REPORT

9
diverted toward the nearest drainage feature (existing catch basins or curb drains). This was accomplished
through the use of pumps and/or stormwater diversion berms, where needed, constructed of imported
backfill materials. Water that accumulated in the excavation areas and contacted contaminated soils was
minimal. In these instances, the water was allowed to infiltrate into the ground or evaporate.
2.4.10 Waste Transportation and Disposal
A total of 30,825 tons of soil and debris were excavated and disposed of as non-hazardous waste at the
RCRA Subtitle D facility listed in Section 2.3.5. The disposal summary log (Appendix E) includes the
manifest number, weight, date, and final destination of each load of material shipped off-site. Scanned
copies of waste manifests are also included in Appendix E.
2.5 Soil Sampling Activities
2.5.1 Confirmation Sampling
The confirmation sampling program included the use of a field screening instrument (XRF device) and
laboratory analyses to determine the concentration of arsenic and lead in soil at the base of the excavations.
As soil removal progressed, an XRF was used to evaluate whether arsenic and lead concentrations at the
base of the excavations were below SSALs. Additional excavation was performed, as needed and where
possible, based on XRF screening and/or visual observations of impacted materials (e.g., magenta-stained
soil). When the XRF and visual observations indicated that impacted soils above SSALs had been removed,
confirmation samples were collected from the base of the excavation for laboratory documentation
purposes. Individual confirmation samples were collected from areas no larger than 5,000 square feet
(confirmation sample areas are shown on Figure 2-3). Each confirmation soil sample was a composite of
soil collected from five discrete sample locations. Soil samples were collected from 0 to 6 inches below the
base of the excavation using plastic disposable scoops. The confirmation soil samples were packed on ice
and submitted to the analytical laboratory for expedited analyses. Sample results were compared to the
SSALs to determine whether the cleanup criteria were met. In areas where arsenic and/or lead exceeded
the SSALs, additional soil removal was performed to the extent practical or until the maximum depth
required for site redevelopment was achieved.
A summary of the confirmation soil sampling analytical results is presented in Table 2-1 and laboratory
analytical reports are included in Appendix F. Removal areas and approximate soil removal depths are
presented on Figure 2-2.
In some of the removal areas (i.e., Removal Areas 2, 6 through 8, 12 through 16, and 19), impacted
materials were left in place and the area was only excavated to the maximum depth required for Site
redevelopment. As discussed in Section 2.4.5, a demarcation liner was installed at these locations to
identify the interface between impacted soils and clean backfill materials (Figures 2-2 and 2-3).
2.5.2 Soil Stabilization Sampling
As described in Section 2.4.6, soil excavated from select portions of the Site was stabilized to reduce
leachable concentrations of lead prior to off-site disposal in a Subtitle D landfill. In accordance with the
requirements of the landfill, four composite samples were obtained from batches of approximately 450 tons
2017 REMOVAL ACTION COMPLETION REPORT

10
of stabilized materials and analyzed for TCLP arsenic and lead. Each composite sample consisted of 10
subsamples collected across the stabilized stockpile. TCLP lead and arsenic concentrations were not
detected above 5 mg/L in either sample. A summary of the analytical results for the soil stabilization samples
are presented in Table 2-2 and laboratory analytical reports are included in Appendix F.
2.5.3 Backfill Material Sampling
Imported fill materials were used to backfill the excavation areas. In accordance with the SSSR/RAWP, the
source was sampled and analyzed for target compound list volatile organic compounds, semi-volatile
organic compounds, pesticides, polychlorinated biphenyls, and target analyte list metals. Analytical results
were provided to, and approved by, USEPA and NCDEQ prior to placement of backfill materials onsite.
The laboratory analytical reports for the backfill source is provided in Appendix G.
2.5.4 Soil Investigation Sampling
Based on the site redevelopment plans, three investigation borings (CH-SB-116 through CH-SB-118)
were advanced in the northeastern portion of the Site to evaluate if additional excavation was necessary.
The soil boring locations are shown on Figure 2-3. Soil samples were collected at each boring from 0 to
0.5 feet below ground surface (bgs) and 0.5 to 2 feet bgs. The samples were packed on ice and
submitted to the analytical laboratory for expedited analyses of arsenic and lead. Arsenic and lead
concentrations were below the SSALs of 27 mg/kg and 270 mg/kg, respectively. A summary of the
analytical results for the soil investigation samples are presented in Table 2-3 and laboratory analytical
reports are included in Appendix F.
2.5.5 Data Validation
Laboratory analytical data generated for this project and reported herein were validated by Arcadis in
accordance with the procedures specified in the Quality Assurance Project Plan included as Appendix B of
the Site Delineation Work Plan (ARCADIS, 2011). Data validation entails a review of the quality control
(QC) data and the raw data to verify that the laboratory was operating within required limits, the analytical
results are correctly transcribed from the instrument read outs and which, if any, environmental samples
are related to any out-of-control QC samples. The objective of data validation is to identify any questionable
or invalid laboratory measurements and to determine if the quality is sufficient to meet the data quality
objectives. Data collected as part of this project were identified as usable.
2.6 Site Restoration and Demobilization
Following the receipt of acceptable confirmation sample analytical results, the Site was transitioned to the
property owner for backfilling and restoration in accordance with the development plans. Since the property
owner was actively involved in the restoration process, site and E&S controls were also transitioned.
Restoration generally included the placement, compaction, and grading of backfill materials to restore the
Site to satisfactory conditions for redevelopment purposes. Pre- and Base--excavation topographical
surveys are depicted on Figures 2-4A and 2-4B. Site photographs are provided in Appendix B.

3 POST-REMOVAL ACTION SITE CONTROL PLAN
3.1 Introduction
Soils containing concentrations of arsenic and lead above the SSALs were removed from the majority of
the Site; however, some of these soils still remain, as illustrated on Figure 3-1. These soils were not
removed due to:
Concerns regarding the structural integrity of existing features or utilities;
Existing asphalt/concrete cover or existing buildings;
Impacts at depths that did not required excavation based on site redevelopment activities.
A combination of institutional controls and routine site inspections will be implemented to address any
residual soil impacts at the Site. Annual inspections will be performed at the Site to verify that no erosion
or ground-disturbing activities are occurring in the areas under institutional controls.
3.2 Implementation of Institutional Controls
EMES will work with NCDEQ and the individual property owners to establish institutional controls (Land
Use Restrictions [LURs]) for those properties where residual soil impacts remain. Although the exact
language has yet to be determined, the LURs will record on the deed the presence and location of impacted
soils remaining on-site, and will restrict future land use, subject to the approval of the USEPA and NCDEQ.
A recordable survey plat will be prepared that documents the locations of the demarcation liner, as shown
on Figure 3-1, and the LURs will prohibit the disturbance of soils in these areas. LURs will be implemented
for properties with PIN #s 12103207, 12103208, 12103209, and 12103212 as shown on Figure 3-1. On
November 5, 2015, property with PIN # 12103217 and 12103220 were entered into a Brownfields
Agreement (Brownfields Project Number: 18004-14-060), which restricts land and groundwater use for
these parcels.
Access to the property with PIN #12103213 was requested to allow for delineation sampling based on soil
data on adjacent parcels. Access to this parcel was denied by the property owner; therefore, this property
has not been sampled.
3.3 Annual Inspections
EMES will perform site inspections on an annual (or other frequency if required by USEPA or NCDEQ)
basis following the implementation of LURs to document the condition of the property to ensure that no
erosion of soils covering these areas is occurring, and that no other man-made disturbance of these areas
is occurring. If it becomes necessary in the future to disturb or remove the remaining impacted soils, soil
removal activities will be coordinated with, and performed by, representatives of EMES. Soil disturbance
and removal activities will be subject to notification and approval by the USEPA and NCDEQ prior to
conducting the soil disturbing or removal activity. Results of annual inspections will be documented in
written reports and will be submitted to USEPA and NCDEQ.
2017 REMOVAL ACTION COMPLETION REPORT

0191711417r 13
In addition to the site inspections, an annual verification will be made with the Registrar of Deeds that the
LURs are still in effect on the deed(s) and that site conditions are not in violation of the LURs.

4 SUMMARY
This 2017 RACR has been prepared to document the soil removal, sampling, and restoration activities that
were completed at the property with PIN # 12103217, which is part of the former VCC Site located in
Charlotte, North Carolina. The objective of this removal action was to remove specific arsenic- and lead-
containing soils associated with the former fertilizer manufacturing activities that were now accessible due
to property redevelopment.
The latest soil removal activities were initiated in April 2017 and completed in June 2017. Site preparation
activities included, but were not limited to: installation of E&SC measures, identification and location of
utilities, construction of support areas, and concrete building slab removal and recycling. Impacted soils
were removed using a combination of mechanical excavators and hand tools (e.g., shovels). Select soils
were stabilized, as necessary, to reduce the leachability of lead. All excavated materials (30,825 tons)
were disposed of off-site as non-hazardous waste at a USEPA-approved RCRA Subtitle D landfill.
Confirmation soil samples were collected from the base of the excavation areas to document the post-
excavation concentrations of arsenic and lead prior to backfilling. If concentrations of arsenic and/or lead
were above the SSALs, the area was physically marked with a demarcation liner (bright orange plastic
construction fencing or geotextile) that was buried at the bottom of the excavation. Air monitoring performed
during the removal action did not detect the presence of total dust, arsenic, or lead above the action levels.
Upon completion of soil removal activities, the excavation areas were backfilled. At this time, the property
is being redeveloped by the owner for residential use.
Between November 2013 and June 2017, a total of 36,913 tons of soil and debris were removed from the
former VCC Charlotte Site. In some areas, all impacted soils could not be removed due to impervious
surfaces, utilities, or depth; therefore, EMES has proposed a Post-Removal Site Control Plan described in
Section 3 to ensure that disturbance of these soils does not occur.
