Director of Engineering Borough of Carteret 61 Cooke Avenue Carteret, New Jersey 07008 Re: RAR, Deed Notice, and LSRP Services Remedial/Post Excavation Activities Civic Center Park Dear Mr. DuPont: As you know, past environmental investigations at Civic Center Park delineated contaminants within a former ball fields. Investigations revealed an isolated area of a PCB contamination with a concentration above the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection Residential Direct Contact Soil Remediation Standards (RDCSRS). The area of elevated concentration was within the southern portion of the former playing fields. As previously discussed this area was excavated and remediated to remove the contamination. In addition, the presence of historic fill throughout the site required the filing of a draft Deed of Environmental Restriction (DER) with the NJDEP. Promulgation of the Site Remediation Reform Act (SRRA) requires the Borough to retain a Licensed Site Remediation Profession (LSRP) to proceed with remediation as outlined in correspondence from the Department dated 614!2011, and detailed in email correspondence dated 10/20/2008 from the previous Green Acres case manager. T &M proposes the following scope of services to address these requirements: Scope of Services Task No. 1: Receptor Evaluation and Baseline Ecological Evaluation A Receptor Evaluation (RE) is required for all sites undergoing multiphase remediation. The RE inventories land use and sensitive receptors within the vicinity of the site. The RE will include a Baseline Ecological Evaluation (BEE), which must be prepared according to the guidelines presented in'NJAC 7:26E, the "Technical Requirements for Site Remediation" (specifically 7:26E- 3.11). This will require a site visit and evaluation of potential pathways for the historic fill to migrate off site. Thereafter, a BEE will be written to fulfill the NJDEP's requirements found in the TRSR. The SRRA established a submission deadline for RE's for existing cases of March ENGINEERS * PLANNERS ' LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTS " ENVIROI i!EIVTAL SCIENTISTS " SURVEYORS CIVIL ` ELECTRICAL' ENMCH 9ENTAL bAtCHANIGAL' MUNICIPAL ' SITE ' SOLID YJASTE - STRUCTURAL `TRAFFIC ` TRAPJSPORTATI OP!

While this deadline has passed, the DEP is currents in a compliance assistance mode and has been foregoing enforcement action in most cases Task No. 2: Deed Notice As required by the NJDEP, the draft Deed Notice will be supplemented to include a formal metes and bounds description of the historic fill area; a restricted area base map of the engineering controls; and descriptions of the specific layers of the engineering controls. This task is also inclusive of a metes and bounds description and basemap required for the deed restriction submission. This task does not include a property boundary survey, which is not required. Task No, 3: Supplemental Ground Water Remedial Investigation The April 9, 2010 revision to N.J.A.C. 7:27E, the Technical Requirements For Site Remediation (TRSR) requires a ground water investigation for sites where historic fill is located within the seasonal high water table. One temporary monitoring well will be installed by hollow stem auger methods within the historic fill in the assumed down gradient direction. One sample and quality control blank will be collected and analyzed for Target Analyte List/Target Compound List, pH, Ammonia, Nitrate, Total Dissolved Solids, and conductivity. The temporary well location will be located using GPS survey equipment and plotted on a base map. If ground water is contaminated, NJDEP will establish a Classification Exception Area for the site. Task No. 4: Supplemental Remedial Investigation/Remedial Action Report As required, we will incorporate all RJR data; summarize all site investigations (maps and data summaries); and all pre- and post remedial data figures and tables into one comprehensive report. Task No. 5: Project ManagemenVLSRP Services SRRA established multiple forms and submission requirements that must be certified by an LSRP and the Borough.. This task also includes project management over the course of the project. Fees` NJDEP and Deed Notice filing fees will be the responsibility of the Borough of Carteret. `l ASSOCIATES Le: Borough of Carteret CART -01383 Attn: Mr. John DuPont, P.E.
