The property is currentiy awned by Bi�rlington Northern Santa Fe Rai�tivay Company. Right of Access will be obtained by the City priar to any onsite investigation. The fiihire use of the properCy is anticipated to be a pliblic parlc. A Phase 1 site Assessrnent was conducted in JuZy 2001. The property, currently with na buildin�s an site, w•as deterrnined pre�viously to be a mattress mantiifacturing plant and warehouse and subsequent(y, a furniture and carpet ��arehouse. It appears the on- site building tivas removed sometime between 1967 and 197�. Previous manufachiring operations have beer� identified as a recagnized environmental concerr� (R�C). Addition�.Ily, the Phase 1 identified two nearby sites as REC's for the subject property. The first, Rack Island Hillside Redevelopment (Hillside) is adjacent to the eas� of the property. The main contaminants of cancern {COC) �vere lead and pol�nuclear aromatic hydrflcarbons (PAHS}. Qther contaminants noted include �alatile organic compounds (VOCs) and semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs). Lead containinatec� soils were found throughout ihe eight-block praject area to an approximate depth of thiree feet. The PAH contamination was mainly restricted to an area east of the sub�ect praperty near the retaining wall for the Cotkon DepotlPrinting Center. Clean-up, cansisting of soil excavation and remova! was conducted under t�ae TX Risk Reduction Rules and the site was given a Final Certificate of Completion on January 28, 1998. Groundwatez was not encountered during any pre�ious boring, sampling, or excavation and was not considered a factor durin�g tne remediation process. Various reports were pr�pared by Law Et�gineering, the lead con�ractor for the MBA Development Corp, on the project, including Phase I and IT ESAs, a Pk�ase III Impact Delineation, and a�espanse Action Completion Repart (RACR). , The second site identified is the Cotton Depot located to the south o€the subject property. The contaminants of concern at the Cotton Depot were total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH), lead, arsenic, and �benzo{a}pyrene, which is a PAH. These COC's were faund in the surficial soil (D-5'). Clean-up, consisting of soil excavation. and removal, was conducted under the TX Risk Reduction Rules and the site was given a Final Certif cate of Completion on August �, 2000. The lead contractor an the project was Regulatary Cvmpliance Services vwho used information �ram previous consultants, including J. McNutt and Associates, Camp Dresser & MeKee I�.c., and Leigh Engineering. Following completion of the remedial actian, a RACR was submitt�d to the TNRCC. ..1 Quatity Assurance Project P{an Phase 2 ESA E. 4`F 5treet and �lm Street �'ort Worth, TX Revision iVumber 0 ReviSian Date: 09/07/01 Page �4 of 25 Based or� these RECs, a Phase 2 site assessment of the subject property is recammended to more fully assess t�e potential for the historica! land uses on the sti�bject progerty and ad�acent properties to have created an enr�iran.znentll impact to the subject property. i .� �� Although groundwater was not encountered in the previous studies, impac� to the groundwatez� has not been ruled out. Callection and analysis of groLmd�vater samples is planned as part ofthe Phase 2 Scope af Work. Concentratioz�, of COC's fo�tnd at t�e subjeck property wsl! be eompared to the existin.g Texas Nahiral Resource Conservation Commission (TNRCC) Texas Risk Reduction prograr.n (TRRP) thresholds for residential. If contaminants of concern exceed the published thresholds, the proper�y has been adversely affected by the former use andlor �tdjacer�t �roperties and the additianal investigation to cietermine the nature and ex�ent may b� warranted. if eontarr�inants of concern d� not exceed the gub�ished threshalds, the praperty wijl be cflnsidered unimpacted and the z-edevelapment project r�vill proceed. „ Quality Assnrance Project P{an �ha�e 2 ESA E. 4`� Street and EIm Street Fbrt Worth, TX Kevisian Number 0 Revision Date: 09/47/Ol Page 5 of 25 Form D Project Descr�pti�n A total of four sai! borings wili be advanced to auger refi�sal which is anticipated to occur b�tween five and twenty %et �ising a hollow-stem auger. Prior to any subsurface dri�ling, ukilities will be lacated by a L�tility lacator service.

Labeling Requirements Once the samples to be anaEyzed have been determined, each sample ta be submit#ed to the laboratory wilE be affixed with labels noting unique field number, date, time, sampier's initials, and the type of analysis required. Chain of Cu�t�dy A chain of custody (COC) will document each.shiprr�ent of sarnp�es from the project site to the �nalyticai laboratory. In addition to the information on the label for each sample, the COC will alsa spec�f}r analytical method for each sample. Samples not requiring ar�alysis at the time of shipment �vi1l be desi�nated as "hold" samples. General inforr�atior� on tlse COC will inc�ude project name and acidre5s, project nfEmber, contact person, sample person, required tuEnaround tirne, r�ame and address of laboratory (destination), and name/tracking number of third party transporter (if applicab�e). Chain-of-custociy documentation wi11 be maintained and the samples will be delivered to the laboratory at the completion �of each day of the field investigation to limit the amount of time held in the field. The completed chain-of-custody recard will accompany the fina� laboratory analytical report. Packaging Requirements � Each sample container submitted for anaIysis s�all be packaged in sealed packaging. Seal�d packages with containers will be placed i�tQ a rigid, closeable container such as an insulated cooler. Sufficient ice will be placed in and an the sample packag�s tQ cool ta approximately 4 degrees C. The corriplated COC wil! be placed into an impermeable, sealed envelope or zip-�ock baggie.

The gas displaces the wel� water ttu-ough a one-way check-value at th�; top. The water is brought to the surFace tt�rough a water discharge line. Gas (air ar nitrogen) is provided by compressors or cylinders. Dedic�tted Grvundw�ter Monitoring Equipment. Equipment fihat is used io purge and sample aniy one well. The equipment is installed and either remains in the well or is used only for that well for the duration of the monitoring program. Dedicated equipment does not need to be decant�minated between sampiing events. Electric S�bmersible Pump. An electric submersible pump is an enclosed cylindrical tube containing a motor and a pump, either a turbine or centrifugal type. The pump is locateci in the we11 below the water surFace, and pushes water to the sut-f'ace through a discharge pipe or hose. Peristaltic Pump. A peristaltic pump is a self-priming, low volume pump consistin.g of a rotor and ball bearing rollers. Tubing placed around the rotors 'ss sc�ueezed by the ro�ors as they revolve. The sque�zing produces a wavelike contractual movement w�ich causes water to be drawn through the tubing. The peristaltic pump is �imited ta sampling from �lepths of less than 25 feet. Moyno� Type Pump. Trade nam� far a helical rotor pump. Groundwater is pushed up the aischarge line k�y a downhole rotor�stator assembly commonIy driven from the surFace by a drive shaft.

Purging is considered camplete when the indicator parameters have stabilized (i.e., three consecu�ive pH readings are ± 0. X u�ita, SC ± SO umhoslcm, and temperature ± Q,5°C). Stabilization of temper�ture will not be rec�uired when grour�dwater from the weii passes through long r�ns of hose ar pipe where t�e groundwater temperature can be affected hy attnospheric changes in temperature. If stability is still not reached, the well may be sample� at the discretion of tl�e sampling team leader if it is apparent that the water quaiity parameters wi�l not stabilize with further deveIopment. 6.i.4.S It is recommended that at least three well �volusnes af water be purged before sarnpling. If stability is not reached within the removal of three well volumes then purging shauld be caniinued until a maximum of five cased well �olumes has been removed. 6.1.4.6 If a well is pumped or bailed dry, it may be sampled withir� 24 hours of being bailed dry without purging additior►al well volumes. In additiar�, f e1d indicator parazneter anaiysis wauld not be required on those wells that bail dry. 6.2 General Sampling Requixements 6.x,1 �nspect the sampling containers (abtained from the analyfical iaboratory prior to the sampling event) to verify that they are appropriate for the sarnples being collected, carrectly prese�ved, and undamaged.
