Jordan, LG Environmental Manager Charlotte Douglas International Airport 5601 Wilkinson Boulevard Charlotte, North Carolina 28208 Subject: Surface Water Sampling and Analysis Report (Second Quarter) Former U.S. Airways Maintenance Hangar NCDEQ UST Section Incident No. 14908 5020 Hangar Road Charlotte, North Carolina WSP Project: 6228-24-0007 Dear Mr. Jordan: WSP USA Environment & Infrastructure Inc. (WSP) is pleased to submit this Surface Water Sampling and Analysis Report for the above -referenced property in Charlotte, North Carolina. Included in this report is an outline of our understanding of the project background, description of the sampling activities and results. Project Background U.S. Airways, Inc. (U.S. Airways) previously operated an aircraft jet fuel defueling/refueling system at the former U.S. Airways Maintenance Hangar located at 5020 Hangar Road in Charlotte, North Carolina. The site is located in the southwest portion of the Charlotte/Douglas International Airport property (Tax Parcel ID 115-211-05). American Airlines (formerly U.S. Airways) currently leases the maintenance hangar facility from the City of Charlotte and performs aircraft maintenance at the property. A 1995 release of petroleum occurred at the hangar location. In December 2018, CLT personnel observed evidence of petroleum seepage from the bank of Coffey Creek approximately 800 feet north of contaminant source area (Figure 1). In email correspondence, dated May 13, 2021, Mr. James McDorman informed WSP personnel that Mr. Wes Bell of the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ), Division of Water Resources (DWR) requested performance of quarterly surface water sampling and analysis of Coffey Creek to assess whether dissolved petroleum hydrocarbons are present in the stream. Surface Water Sampling and Analysis On June 3, 2024, WSP personnel collected one surface water sample (SW-1) from Coffey Creek. The sample was collected using a stainless -steel cup attached to a stainless -steel rod. This device allows for the water sample to be dipped from near the center of the stream by the sampler. The sampling cup was decontaminated prior to use by rinsing with isopropyl alcohol, followed by distilled water.

The location is shown on Figure 1. The collected sample was poured into laboratory -provided containers with appropriate preservatives. The sample containers were placed in an ice -filled sample cooler and delivered to Waypoint Analytical, LLC (Waypoint) in Charlotte, North Carolina for analysis. The sample was maintained under chain -of -custody protocol. The laboratory analyzed the surface water sample for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) by EPA Method 6200B including MTBE and semi -volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) by EPA Method 625.1. Results The results of the analysis of sample SW-1 identified no detectable concentrations of contaminants of concern. A table summarizing the current and historical results and the laboratory report are attached. The next surface water sampling event is planned for September 2024. Closing We appreciate your selection of WSP for this project and look forward to assisting you further on this project. If you have questions, please contact us.
