Winter 7Q10 (cfs) __ -- __ - — --- _ - N/A a uatic life Summary This dewatering project drains two parcels. Parcel #1 was formerly a firestone facility, a gasoline/service station, and an automotive sales/service business. An investigation has revealed the presence of petroleum -impacted soil and chlorinated compounds. Petroleum sources include former petroleum underground storage tanks (USTs), underground hydraulic lifts, a potential oil -water separator, and floor drains. TCE (tetrachloroethene) sources were not identified, however according to information submitted by the permittee, it is not uncommon to find this pollutant in downtown areas. Parcel #2 is currently a paved parking lot. Various businesses and residences, including an auto -radiator repair business, formerly occupied the space. Assessments on this parcel do not indicate any adverse environmental conditions other than potential heating oil USTs/ASTs that may have heated former residential structures. The facility is not initially proposing to remediate the groundwater. They plan to simply dewater the site. Initial data from 4 monitoring wells data indicate the following pollutants have the potential to be discharged: Pollutant Maximum detected Applicable WQ standard/criteria concentration p L (p L) Benzene 1.75 71.4 (NC, human health) n-But lbenzene 2.12 3 (ECOTOX) Diisopropyl ether 1.21 20,000 (ECOTOX) (isopropyl ether) Eth lbenzene 4.45 520 (ECOTOX) p-Isopropylbenzene 3.16 310 (ECOTOX) Ll NPDES Permit Fact Sheet — 04/ 18/06 Page 2 Wachovia Bank NCO088226 MTBE 2.67 2,393 (proposed NC) n-Propylbenzene 1.35 77 (ECOTOX) Tetrachloroethene (PERC) 2.90 Water supply standard only Toluene 2.95 11 1,2,4-Trimeth lbenzene 1.98 380 (ECOTOX) 1,3,5-Trimeth lbenzene 1.86 620 (ECOTOX) m/ -X lene 15 780 (total Xylenes, ECOTOX) o-X lene 3.97 The groundwater remediation general permit prescribes the following limits and monitoring requirements for petroleum impacted groundwater: en C AMIX.

The impairments are due to fecal coliform standard violations and impaired biological integrity. Potential sources are urban runoff, storm sewers, and municipal point sources. The 2004 Catawba Basin Plan notes that Little Sugar Creek is one of several streams collectively draining the metropolitan center of Charlotte. Similar habitat conditions are found at all sample sites within the watershed: sand/silt substrate, severe bank erosion, and disturbed or nonexistent riparian vegetation. In 2002, declines in habitat were noted on Little Sugar Creek, but this was most likely due to severe drought.

This is the plan we are shooting for. There will be two discharge points, one for each parcel. The larger parcel has two de -watering systems simply due to the massive size of the parcel. One of these de -watering systems was shown to have targeted compounds at concentrations that warrant treatment, while the second de -watering system was below treatment concentrations. Therefore, we were going to combine the treated water with the water that did not warrant treatment and discharge at one point. At the same time, we are going to track the discharge of the portion of the larger parcel that at this time does not warrant treatment. If lab analysis in the future indicates a need to treat this groundwater, we will have the ability to re -rout the groundwater to the treatment system. Otherwise, we will continue to discharge as previously noted. The second parcel was shown to be below applicable standards and would have a second discharge point. If in the future lab analysis of groundwater collected from this second parcel indicate the need to treat, this groundwater will also be routed to the treatment system. I hope this helps out even further. Look forward to hearing from you on any other comments.

So there are two dewatering systems on the large parcel, but these will be combined, treated, and discharged at one point to a storm drain. Then there is one dewatering system on the small parcel that will be discharged into a second point to a storm drain. I'll need to have a separate page *for each discharge point*. So if each dewatering system (in the above case, 3 total) will have its own distinct discharge point to a storm drain, then that is considered 3 outfalls. If you are going to have one for the large parcel and one for the small parcel then that will be 2 outfalls. I don't need to know about internal sample streams, only final discharge points. Either way, I need to clarify it in the permit but it won't need to go back out to notice.

Keep in mind that the permit will remain even after the construction is complete. How are you going to handle treatment from both parcels? In our phone conversation you mentioned that you would want to have the option to treat both with the same unit. If you want to keep the two discharge points then I'll add a second identical limits page so that there is one for each parcel. You will have to sample at both discharge points.

I happened to notice on the Supplement to Permit Cover Sheet on the DRAFT permit that indicates "Discharge dewatering water from a groundwater remediation project located at 500 Block of South Tryon Street, Charlotte, North Carolina". While a technicality, is it possible to change that wording to "construction project" as opposed to "groundwater remediation project" without having to go through the whole public comment period again? Treatment of the groundwater is a bi-product of the construction project, but this is a true construction project. Also, as outlined in our NPDES permit application, the site contains 2 of 4 6/ 14/2006 1:49 PM RE: Wachovia draft permit two parcels, the larger parcel is the 500 block of South Tryon and the smaller parcel is a skinny tract of land located along Stonewall Street between South Tryon and South College Street. We had proposed to discharge groundwater from the larger parcel to a storm drain on the corner of 1st Street and South Tryon and the groundwater from the smaller parcel to a storm drain at the intersection of Stonewall and South College, both of which discharge to Little Sugar Creek. I noticed II that the DRAFT permit indicated "Discharge from said treatment works at II the location specified on the attached map into an unnamed tributary to Little Sugar Creek, Class C water in the Catawba River Basin, at the location specified on the attached map."

The following is an excerpt of the text provided by J. Curtis Weaver a Hydrologist and PE with the USGS North Carolina Water Science Center located in Raleigh, North Carolina. In response to your inquiry about the low flow characteristics (7Q10 and 30Q2) for a location on Little Sugar Creek in Charlotte (Mecklenburg County), the following information is provided: A check of the lowflow files here at the USGS North Carolina Water Science Center indicates the previous determination of low flow discharges at two locations near your point of interest. These estimates (station id 0214640680 at NC Hwy 16, and 0214641790 at Princeton Ave) were completed using 7Q10 yield values of 0.066 and 0.084 cfs per sgmi, based on flow characteristics determined at nearby sites where historic discharge records are available (including a previous gaging station operated 1914-77, station id 02146500, drainage area 41.0 sgmi). The 30Q2 estimated for the site at Princeton avenue was based on a 30Q2 yield of about 0.21 cfsm, based on the previous gaging station. With a long period of record dating back to the 1920's, it would be expected that data reflective of natural flow conditions were collected at this site. However, at the end of the record, there were noted diversions into the basin upstream from the site, and urbanization had already become a recognized characteristic of this particular watershed. Examining the map image you sent, your site of interest is located near where the US Highway 74 (Independence Blvd) crosses the stream. The USGS does not have any discharge records at this location, but the drainage area has been computed to be 10.20 sgmi-(station id 0214640695). As previously discussed with you, the USGS currently operates a gaging station on Little Sugar Creek at Medical Center Drive (station id 02146409, drainage area 11.8 sgmi), having collected continuous records of discharge since October 1994. A quick low -flow analysis based on the available records through March 30, 2005 (the end of the 2004 climatic year) indicates the 7Q10 is 1.25 cfs (about 0.106 cfsm) and the 30Q2 is 4.10 cfs (about 0.194 cfsm). The 7Q10 yield values are somewhat higher than those used in the previous requests, and could be reflective of diversions into Little Sugar Creek. However, the 30Q2 yield is a little lower than that determined for the previous gaging station (02146500) located further downstream.

The average discharge for the period of record at the gaging station is 19.1 cfs, equivalent to about 1.6 cfsm. This average yield is also higher than the 1.1 cfsm typically cited for "natural -flow " conditions in area streams. Putting all the above information together makes it challenging to reach a definitive conclusion concerning a proper set of low flow characteristics for your location. The presence of a continuous -record gaging station downstream of your location is indeed very helpful, but then on the other hand, a recognition that flow conditions may not be reflective of natural flow creates some uncertainty in assessing the proper low flow discharges. - - Thus, for so-called current or as -is flow conditions, I would cite the above values from the gaging station, noting the location of the gaging station at Medical Center Drive downstream from your site of interest. For estimates that may be more reflective of natural flow conditions, the most reasonable conclusion is to acknowledge the historical data limitations for this basin and suggest that yield values may be lower, but such quantification of natural flow characteristics will be difficult in a basin located within a highly developed setting.

North Carolina 27699-1617 Reference: NPDES Permit Application 500 Block of South Tryon Street Charlotte, North Carolina Dear Ms. Wilson: RDEC E[ WE AN 30 zoos 'D OFFICE OF THE CITY CLERK January 17, 2006 ECS Project 08-3515 ECS, Ltd., on behalf of Wachovia Bank, is requesting a NPDES permit be issued for water generated during the drilling of the blast boreholes and dewatering wells which will be stored on the site ground surface until dewatering activities begin and the disposal of the water collected during the dewatering activities proposed at the subject site. Back round Information The subject site is divided into two parcels. The first parcel is a city block bounded by Church Street to the northwest, 1't Street to the northeast, Stonewall Street to the southwest and Tyron Street to the south east in Charlotte, North Carolina. The second parcel is a.0.46 acre rectangle located at the east comer of the intersection of Tyron Street and Stonewall Street in Charlotte, North Carolina. Figure I is a LiSGS map showing the location of the two parcels. The site is proposed to be redeveloped with a Wachovia mixed use development including a commercial office tower, a residential condominium tower and a commercial retail arcade. Previous environmental and engineering investigations have been conducted on the site. A review of the previously conducted assessments indicates that the first parcel was historically developed with a Firestone tire facility (1959 to present), a gasoline/service station (1929 to 1943) and an automotive sales/service business (1929-1984). Assessment of the site has revealed the presence of petroleum impacted soil and the presence of groundwater impacted with petroleum and chlorinated compounds above North Carolina groundwater quality standards. Sources of petroleum impact include former petroleum underground storage tanks (USTs), underground hydraulic lifts, a potential oil/water separator and floor drains. The source of the chlorinated compound tetraebloroethene (PCE) was not identified. However, chlorinated compounds are extremely mobile and migrate rapidly through soil and groundwater. Therefore, based the long history of commercial development of the site and surrounding properties, it is not uncommon to detect the presence of chlorinated compounds in groundwater in downtown settings. The second parcel is currently paved and used as a parking lot. The site was historically occupied by Charlotte Liberty Mutual (approximately 1976 to 1987), Knight Publishers (approximately 1966 to 1976), Elks Club Lodge (approximately 1941 to 1966), Salvation Army (approximately 1929 to 1936), Knights of Columbus Lodge (approximately 1911 to 1929). St. Mary's Seminary was located on a portion of the second parcel from approximately 1900 to 1911. Dwellings were located on the other portion of the parcel from approximately 1900 to 1929 and an auto radiator repair business was located on the south end of the second parcel in 1929. 5320 Peters Creek Road, Suite F, Roanoke, VA 24019 • (540) 362-2000 • FAX (540) 362-1202 • www.ecslimited.com Aberdeen, MD • Baltimore, MD • Chantilly, VA - Frederick, MD - Fredericksburg, VA • Norfolk, VA Richmond, VA • Roanoke, VA • Waldorf, MD - Warrenton, VA* • Williamsburg, VA • Winchester, VA • York, PA NPDES Permit Application Wachovia 7)ron Street BTS Charlotte, North Carolina ECS Project 08-3515 Januaiti117, 2006 Two areas of impacted soils were identified beneath the first parcel by Environmental Investigations (EI). The extent of impacted soil was based on laboratory analysis of soil samples collected during environmental investigations and field data collected during geotechnical investigations. In the western - central portion of the site, an estimated quantity of 8,250 tons (approximately 5,500 yds3) of impacted soil was identified. In the eastern portion of the site near the intersection of South Tryon Street and West 1" Street, an estimated quantity of 3,000 tons (approximately 2,000 yds3) of impacted soil was identified. The total estimated quantity of impacted soil estimated by El is between 11,250 and 14,250 tons. Based on our experience, we estimate that approximately 5,500 to 7,500 tons of impacted soil will need to be disposed at an approved facility. A review of the Phase I by EI does not indicate the presence of recognized environmental conditions at the second parcel other than potential heating oil USTs/ASTs that may have heated former residential/commercial structures. The radiator shop on the southern portion of this site in the late 1920's is downgradient to where dewatering activities will occur and there is no documented indications of a release associated with this former radiator shop. For the purposes of site redevelopment, the entire site will be excavated to an approximate depth of 80 feet bgs. The water collected from the first parcel would discharge to the storm drain located on the east comer of the intersection of I" Street and Tyron Street and the second parcel would discharge to the storm drain located on the south comer of the intersection of Stonewall Street and College Street. Figure 1 shows the approximate discharge locations. The storm drains discharge to Little Sugar Creek. The project length is estimated as one to two years top complete. The attached table lists the available groundwater data for the site. Further analytical testing cannot be performed until dewatering commences because the wells located on site have been abandoned. Engineering Alternative Analysis Evaluation of potential restrictions to a wastewater discharge to surface waters Streamflow data at the proposed discharge location is not available at this time. It will be submitted as soon as it becomes available. Little Sugar Creek is a Class C waterway. Therefore, there are no restrictions on watershed development or types of discharges. A review of the Catawba River Basinwide Water Quality Plan dated September 2004 and prepared by Dave Toms with the NC Department of Environment & Natural Resources, Division of Water Quality — Planning does not list any NPDES permitting strategies that limit wastewater discharges to particular streams within the basin. Little Sugar Creek is on the 303(d) list as an impaired waterway. There is a TMDL for fecal coliform of 9.4x101' efu/100 ml. Based on the project description and site contaminants, it is not anticipated that any fecal coliform will be discharged. into the storm sewer. Endangered species are not present in the proposed discharge location. Non Municipal Flow Projections Until operations commence, a reasonable flow projection cannot be determined. 2 NPDES Permit Application WachoWa Tyron Street BTS Charlotte, North Carolina ECS Project 08-3515 January 17, 2006 Evaluation of technologically feasible alternatives Alternative A.

Infiltration Galleries This alternative cannot be properly evaluated until there is a clear definition of the contaminant level and flow projections. Once dewatering begins, this alternative will be evaluated. Alternative D. In -Situ Groundwater Remediation Wells In -situ groundwater remediation wells would not be a feasible alternative for this site because the site is being dewatered; a remediation system is not being constructed. Alternative E. Closed -Loop Groundwater Remediation Wells Closed -loop groundwater remediation wells would not be a feasible alternative for this site because the site is being dewatered; a remediation system is not being constructed. Alternative F. Direct Discharge to Surface Waters Direct discharge to the surface water is feasible for this site. Storm drains are located in the vicinity of the site. The discharge to the storm drain will not create a hazardous condition. All other considerations have been met as described previously. Alternative F, direct discharge to surface waters is the most viable option at this time. If you have any questions or continents, please do not hesitate to contact me at (336) 209-5835.
