SUBJECT: Proposal from Weaver Boos Consultants
Proposal for Comfort Letter, Indiana Brownfield Program Letter and Associated Phase
I Environmental Site Assessments and Phase II Soil and Groundwater Sampling -
Union Station Technology Center project
The attached proposal from Weaver Boos Consultants outlines a number of activities
required for the Union Station Technology Center project. They include:
• Completion of a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment for the Millennium site at
604 S. Scott Street and preparation of an application to the Indiana Brownfield
Program for a Comfort/Site Status Letter. This work also includes preparation of a
draft Environmental Restrictive Covenant for the site.
• Completion of a Phase I and Phase II Environmental Site Assessment for the Ivy
Tower property and preparation of an application for either a letter from the Indiana
Finance Authority Brownfields Program ("Brownfields") regarding the status of the
site and any applicable liability exemptions, a No Further Action Letter or an
application to the Voluntary Remediation Program. This work includes preparation of
a draft Environmental Restrictive Covenant for the site that will be submitted to
Brownfields or the Indiana Department of Environmental Management ("IDEM").
The Phase II work will include soil and groundwater sampling both north and south of
the buildings and in the vicinity of Transformer room #3.
The schedule for this work is to have the Phase I Environmental Site Assessments
completed within four weeks and the Phase II investigation within approximately eight
weeks. Some of the work is dependent on the groundwater sampling in the area being
conducted by Hull & Associates and also by the cleanup work required at Transformer Room
#3. It is estimated that the Comfort/Site Status letters could take an additional 120 days or
longer, depending on the complexity of the PCB remediation.
The total cost of this contract $43,394.
This work has been anticipated for some time as part of our partnership on the USTC
project. Your approval of this proposal is requested.

Proposal for Indiana Brownfield Program Letter
Ivy Tower Complex
635 S. Lafayette Blvd and 600 United Drive
South Bend,Indiana
Dear Mr. Dressel:
Weaver Boos Consultants, LLC (Weaver Boos) appreciates the opportunity to provide this
proposal to the South Bend Redevelopment Commission (SBRC), the client, for the necessary
environmental oversight services required to complete the following:
• Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) Comfort Letter issued from
the Indiana Brownfield's Program (IBP) for the property identified as the Former
Millennium Environmental Inc. Site (see Figure 1).
• IDEM Liability Exemption Letter issued from the IBP for the property identified as the
Ivy Tower Complex (see Figure 2).
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Millennium Environmental, Inc.
On July 8, 2010, the Indiana IBP issued an IDEM Comfort Letter to the SBRC, prospective
purchaser at the time, for the former Millennium Environmental, Inc. property located at 604 S.
Scott Street, South Bend, Indiana. The Comfort Letter was issued to address applicable

limitations on liability and clarify the reasonable steps IDEM considered appropriate for the
SBRC to take with respect to hazardous substances and petroleum products found on the
property. Prior to the issuance of the Comfort Letter, IBP staff reviewed reports by Hull &
Associates, Inc. (Phase I ESA, dated March 2010 and Phase I ESA Update Memorandum, dated
April 21, 2010) to determine existing environmental impacts and potential liability at the
property. Hull &Associates, Inc. (Hull) identified the following three recognized environmental
conditions(RECs) associated with the site.
• Historic Site Operations as a RCRA Treatment, Storage, and Disposal (TSD) Facility
• Existing Waste Containers in former Container, Storage, Processing&Transfer Building.
• Potential Fuel Oil Underground Storage Tank
Associated with these RECs, IDEM identified tetrachloroethene, trichloroethene, benzene,
toluene, arsenic, and lead impacts in the soil and groundwater beneath the site at concentrations
that exceeded applicable residential default closure levels. As a result, the Comfort Letter was
issued with the condition that an environmental restrictive covenant (ERC) be recorded on the
deed for the site in the name of the SBRC to ensure no exposure to the contamination.
Restrictions included the following:
• Agricultural or residential usage was prohibited.
• Potable groundwater usage from beneath the property is prohibited. No wells can be
installed for any purpose other than for monitoring without prior IDEM approval.
• Provide full cooperation to persons authorized to conduct environmental response action.
• Cap soils exceeding industrial default closure levels or excavate impacted soils and
dispose off-site.
• Conduct indoor air quality assessment for soil vapor intrusion for any existing or newly
constructed buildings on site.
• Notify IDEM if land use changes.
Weaver Boos understands that the ERC was not recorded, in light of the upcoming 2011 and
2012 demolition and soil removal project that was completed with IDEM oversight.

In March 2011, the former Millennium building was razed excluding a portion of the building
foundation and concrete floor. In March and April 2012, with IDEM oversight, the remainder of
the building foundation, concrete floor, and two areas of impacted soil beneath the floor were
removed. The concrete floor previously acted as a "cap" (see Figure 1) covering the impacted
soils exceeding industrial default closure levels. One area of impacted soil (30'x 30'x 5' deep)
was located at the former loading dock and drum compactor. Approximately 227.5 tons of
chlorinated solvent contaminated soil was removed and disposed of as nonhazardous waste at
Prairie View Landfill in Wyatt, Indiana. The second location (10' x 12' x 10' deep) was located
at the former conveyor and process control station. Approximately 60.49 tons of hazardous
waste soil was disposed of at Wayne Disposal, Inc. located in Belleville, Michigan. There are no
indications in the Demolition & Soil Excavation Report, prepared by ERS, Inc. dated June 5,
2012, for IDEM that any soil samples were collected from either excavation to verify that the soil
exceeding default industrial closure screening levels had been removed. However, composite
samples were collected and tested from each roll off container from the first excavation to verify
that the excavated material was non-hazardous.
As a result of the excavation project, the soil is no longer capped across any portion of the
property. The property, as it presently exists, is an open vacant lot, void of any above grade
structural improvement. Weaver Boos understands that a prospective purchaser plans to
redevelop the property into a power station and concrete or asphalt paved parking lot used for
staging equipment and semi trailers. The surface soils will be covered with concrete or asphalt.
The prospective purchaser is seeking an IDEM Comfort Letter from the IBP prior to acquisition.
Based on the current site conditions and background information, the prospective purchaser
would likely be eligible for the IDEM Comfort Letter as long as the conditions outlined in the
2010 ERC are met. Please note that according to the background information this site is a former
RCRA facility subject to RCRA corrective action requirements and IDEM Comfort Letters likely
do not provide RCRA liability protection, as confirmed by Mr. Kevin Davis of the IDEM IBP.
However, Mr. Davis believes that RCRA was satisfied with the corrective action activities that
occurred in 2012 and will likely not seek further action on the site. Mr. Davis stated that the
groundwater contamination may still be an issue if the conditions outlined in the 2010 ERC are
not met by the prospective purchaser.

Ivy Tower Complex
In May 2013, Studebaker Building 84 LLC acquired this property comprised of three adjoining
parcels located at 600 United Drive and 635 S. Lafayette Blvd (see Figure 2). This property is
located immediately to the east of the aforementioned Millennium property and United Drive.
The property consists of three main buildings referred to as Buildings 84, 112, and 113 and date
to prior use as part of the former Studebaker Corporation which ceased operation in 1963. Prior
to acquisition, a Phase I ESA was completed for the City of South Bend Community and
Economic Development by Wightman Petrie, Inc. (WPI) in February 2012. The Phase I ESA
identified the following recognized environmental conditions associated with the property.
• Identified location of a former underground storage tank (UST) system along Building
113.
• The potential presence of additional undocumented UST systems.
• Undocumented spills and/or releases at the Site related to historical manufacturing
operations including a former paint building located at the southeast corner of the site.
• Absence of any documentation regarding historical disposal practices.
• Documented soil and groundwater contamination on nearby properties.
• The potential presence of PCB transformers, asbestos-containing materials, and lead-
based paint. Note, the PCB transformers were removed in December 2013 and the
asbestos-containing materials are currently being removed as of the date of this proposal
with completion scheduled for April 2014. The concrete and underlying soils beneath the
transformers in one room (Transformer Room #3, see Figure 3) have been impacted with
PCBs and will require cleanup. Lead-based paint abatement is scheduled to commence
in April 2014 and be completed in six months.
Subsequently, WPI completed a limited Phase II ESA at the Site. WPI identified petroleum
impacts in the soil (from 0-5 feet bgs) at the northwest corner of the open lot south of Building
113. WPI concluded that the impacts were possibly limited to near the surface. The
concentrations detected were above Indiana default industrial closure goals. Trichloroethylene
was detected in groundwater samples collected from beneath the property at concentrations
slightly above Indiana default residential closure goals. WPI also completed a ground
Mr. Chris Dressel

penetrating radar survey for the Site to identify the potential presence of features such as
previously abandoned and/or removed USTs, cisterns, and tunnels, as well as the presence of
possible fill materials from prior demolition activities. The results of the survey revealed no
indications of subsurface anomalies consistent with the presence of buried USTs but did reveal
indications consistent with UST(s) being removed and then the excavation being backfilled. In
addition, south of Building 113, numerous foundations and buried debris were identified from
previous buildings that once stood across the Site. Within one foundation there are indications of
significant debris,possibly from the historical demolition activities.
To promote redevelopment of the property and to satisfy potential lending institutions, Weaver
Boos understands that the current owner, Studebaker Building 84, LLC, seeks a liability
exemption letter or other closure confirmation from IDEM for the documented environmental
concerns as described in the WPI Phase I and II ESA reports and recent findings regarding the
PCB-impacted concrete and possibly soil within one former transformer room. Potential liability
exemption letters from the IBP (referred to herein as "IBP Letters") include a Bona Fide
Prospective Purchaser (BFPP) Comfort Letter, a Lender Liability Comfort Letter, a
Contaminated Aquifer letter, a Site Status Letter and a No Further Action(NFA) Letter from the
IBP. In the alternative, a party can seek an NFA issued from the Indiana State Cleanup Program
(SCP), or a Certificate of Completion and Covenant Not to Sue Letter (CNS) from the Indiana
Voluntary Remediation Program.
Based on our understanding of the intentions of the property owner regarding redevelopment,
possible lending institution requirements, project timetable, present documented environmental
conditions associated with the property, and consultation with environmental counsel, the
specific path forward for addressing the environmental conditions will be determined after
receiving the results of the initial sampling proposed herein, as well as potentially further
discussions with IDEM. For purposes of this proposal, Weaver Boos assumes that the owner
will be pursuing an IBP Letter but if the site is placed into the SCP or VRP, this proposal will
need to be amended to reflect the additional work involved. .
Note that if the owner proceeds with the IBP,if at any time during the process an imminent threat
to human health or the environment is identified or off-site properties are impacted, as a result of
a source on-site, then the site maybe transferred from the IBP to the Indiana SCP. A remediation
workplan (RWP) and remedial completion report will be required to be submitted and a NFA

letter will be issued to be obtained by the responsible party upon completion of remedial
activities.
PROPOSED SCOPE OF WORK
A description of the environmental assessment services proposed by Weaver Boos is discussed in
this section. Our estimated cost for completion of each phase of the project will be based
primarily on unit costs for labor for the Weaver Boos personnel and unit and lump sum costs for
the subcontractors who may be involved.
The Proposed Scope of Work can be subdivided into two concurrent phases:
Phase I—Millennium Comfort Letter
Task 1 —Complete IBP Comfort/Site Status Letter Request Form(State Form 51493)
Task 2—Complete Phase I ESA(ASTM E1527-05 and ASTM E1527-13)
Task 3—Complete draft Environmental Restrictive Covenant(ERC)
Task 4—Submit Package to Client for Final Approval
Phase II—Ivy Tower Complex Site IBP Letter
Task 1 -Complete IBP Request Form
Task 2—Complete Phase I ESA(ASTM E1527-05 and ASTM E1527-13)
Task 3—Complete Phase II Environmental Site Assessment/Site Investigation
Task 4—Complete draft Environmental Restrictive Covenant(ERC)
Task 5—Submit Package to Client for Final Approval
The Scope of Work for each of the individual tasks for each phase is presented below
Scope of Work-Millennium Comfort Letter
Task 1 —Complete IBP Comfort/Site Status Letter Request Form (State Form 51493)
Weaver Boos will prepare State Form 51493 (see attached) with information provided by the
client or client's counsel. Information to be provided by the client will include the letter recipient
and mailing information. The name of the letter recipient should match the entity that will
actually hold the deed to the property.
Mr. Chris Dressel
March 4,2014
Page 7 of 18
Task 2—Complete Phase I ESA(ASTM El 527-05 and ASTM E1527-13)
Weaver Boos will complete a Phase I ESA in accordance with the new standard ASTM El527-
13 (which addresses the potential for vapor intrusion). The Phase I ESA will also meet the old
standard, ASTM E1527-05. The Phase I ESA must be completed within 180 days PRIOR to
taking title to the property and in the name of the IBP Comfort Letter recipient listed on State
Form 51493. The letter recipient or authorized representative who signs State Form 51493 must
also sign the Phase I ESA user questionnaire(see attached).
The Phase I ESA will consist of the following general tasks:
• Review of publicly available, reasonably ascertainable, and practicably reviewable
ASTM El 527-13 specified standard government records.
• Site reconnaissance in an effort to physically observe reasonably accessible interior and
exterior areas of the Property, structures present at the Property and uses of adjoining
properties from reasonably accessible public thoroughfares.
• Evaluate the presence of radon at the Property by reviewing the EPA map of potential
elevated radon concentrations,and county health surveys.
• Visual assessment for obvious apparent conditions indicative of wetlands and an
evaluation regarding whether the Property is within a 100-or 500-year floodplain.
• Perform a Tier 1 Vapor Encroachment Screen (YES) to identify the presence or likely
presence of contaminant of concern vapors in the subsurface of the Property caused by
the release of vapors from impacted soil or groundwater either on or near the Property per
ASTM E 2600-10;
• Interview reasonably available current and past owner(s) and occupant(s) of the Property
and local/state governmental agency representatives in an effort to obtain publicly
available, reasonably ascertainable, and practicably reviewable information concerning
the current and historical uses of the Property and adjoining properties.
• Review of publicly available, reasonably ascertainable, and practicably reviewable
historical records concerning the Property and adjoining properties in an effort to obtain
information concerning the historical uses of the Property and adjoining properties.
Mr. Chris Dressel
March 4,2014
Page 8of18
• Prepare a written report that specifically lists any recognized environmental conditions
identified during the course of the Phase I ESA, consolidates and discusses information
gathered in the tasks described above,and appends any significant supporting documents.
Weaver Boos will need the following information in order to initiate the proposed Phase I ESA:
• A completed copy of the attached User-Provided Information Questionnaire, signed by
the recipient of the IBP Comfort Letter;
ASTM E1527-13 requires the user to provide recorded land title records and records of
environmental liens or activity and use limitations recorded against the Property. If a review for
recorded land title records needs to be obtained or completed by Weaver Boos, an additional fee
will be incurred and will be invoiced in accordance with the attached Fee Schedule. Weaver
Boos will inform the client of the additional cost associated with the recorded land title records
review prior to incurring the cost.
It is important to note that in order for the user (i.e., Comfort Letter recipient) to qualify for one
II
of the Landowner Liability Protections offered by 40 CFR 312, the user must provide the
available information requested on the attached User-Provided Information Questionnaire.
Weaver Boos requests that the user provide the requested information and/or any comments,
such as if the information is not available, or unknown, and sign the last page of the
questionnaire which affirms that the respondent has answered all questions to the best of the
respondent's actual knowledge and in good faith. Lack of this requested information could result
in data gaps in the findings of the Phase I ESA.
Task 3—Complete draft Environmental Restrictive Covenant(ERC)
Post acquisition, the prospective purchaser is required to satisfy certain statutory continuing or
"due care" obligations with respect to known site contamination to maintain exemption. Based
on the background information for this site, Weaver Boos believes that to demonstrate to the IBP
that these obligations will be met, land use restrictions will be required (recording of an
environmental covenant or ERC) to eliminate exposure pathways and to inform a technical
opinion on appropriate reasonable steps for the prospective purchaser to undertake, to try to
maintain the liability exemption. The name on the ERC should match the entity on the property
deed, the Phase I ESA, and the user questionnaire of the Phase I ESA. A draft ERC will be
Mr. Chris Dressel
March 4,2014
Page 9 of 18
prepared by Weaver Boos and submitted with the IBP Comfort Letter Request for their
consideration. The draft ERC will likely be similar to the unrecorded ERC prepared as part of
the July 8, 2010 Comfort Letter issued to the City of South Bend Redevelopment Commission
but may take into account, if applicable, the proposed usage of the site by the prospective
purchaser and the 2011-2012 demolition and excavation activities. Note, the IBP will finalize
their own ERC and attach the document to the Comfort Letter once issued. Once the site is
acquired by the prospective purchaser, the document must be recorded on the deed for the site
with a certified copy of the filed document returned to the IBP.
Based on our initial review of the 2011-2012 demolition and excavation activities, a"cap"across
the soils will likely still be required, as outlined in the 2010 Comfort Letter. To eliminate the
"cap" requirement, additional soil sampling and testing may be necessary to demonstrate to the
IBP that the soils exceeding default industrial closure levels were removed. Based on our review
of the demolition and soil excavation summary report discussed earlier in this proposal, no soil
verification sampling and testing was completed from the two excavations once the soil was
removed. However, since the prospective purchaser plans to pave (or create a new"cap") across
the site, Weaver Boos believes that no additional sampling or testing is presently warranted.
Should this not be the case, then Weaver Boos reserves the right to modify this proposal to
include limited sampling and testing if requested by the IBP. In preparing the ERC (and the
Comfort Letter request), the prospective purchaser may need to provide to Weaver Boos their
plans for the site.
Task 4—Submit Package to Client for Final Approval
Once Tasks 1-3 are completed, Weaver Boos will submit the package to the client for review,
approval, and signature from the prospective purchaser, where applicable. At the option of the
client, Weaver Boos can submit the package to the IBP upon approval.
Scope of Work —Ivy Tower Complex IBP Letter
Task 1 - Complete IBP Letter Request Form (State Form 51493)
Weaver Boos will prepare State Form 51493 (see attached) for the IBP Letter(s)determined to be
most appropriate with information provided by the client or client's counsel. Information to be
provided by the client will include the letter recipient and mailing information. The name of the
letter recipient should match the entity that actually holds the deed to the property (Studebaker
Building 84 LLC).
Mr. Chris Dressel
March 4,2014
Page 10 of 18
Task 2—Complete Phase I ESA (ASTME1527-05 and ASTME1527-13)
Although a Phase I ESA is not required to receive all of the IBP Letters (though it is for some),
lending institutions typically require one to be completed. Further, the last Phase I ESA
completed for the site was in February 2012 and the current owner has occupied and conducted
operations at the site since May 2013. In order to meet liability exemption requirements,
applicants generally must meet certain conditions, a number of which can be satisfied through
• The completion of a Phase I ESA. A workplan for the completion of the Phase I ESA has
previously been outlined in the first phase of this project. This Phase I ESA would be
completed in the name of the current property owner and lending institution. Both
entities would be required to complete user questionnaires as described previously.
Task 3—Complete Phase II Environmental Site Assessment/Site Investigation
Generally, to obtain most IBP Letters, the applicant must be able to demonstrate that current
levels of contaminants at the site substantially meet current remediation objectives, as established
by IDEM under the Remediation Closure Guide. Based on a review of the background
information of this site as described earlier(including Phase I ESA, dated February 22,2012,and
a limited Phase II ESA, dated March 23, 2012, both completed by WPI) both soil and
groundwater impacts are present at the site. Weaver Boos opines that this information is not
sufficient to indicate that the site "substantially" meets current remediation objectives. As a
result, a soil and groundwater site investigation (Phase II ESA), is proposed to supplement the
earlier investigation completed in 2012.
The Scope of Work for the Phase II ESA or Task 3 will be subdivided into the following:
1. Soil Probe and Groundwater Sampling
2. Analytical Work
3. Report
Note, the results of an updated Phase I ESA (Task 2) may be different that those of the 2012
Phase I ESA, therefore requiring that the following Phase H ESA scope be modified should costs
increase. Further, Weaver Boos understands that Hull & Associates, Inc. (Hull) is currently
conducting a regional groundwater monitoring program including possible sampling and testing
of groundwater at or near the site. Hull will be providing Weaver Boos will their test results of
samples collected at or near the site. These results may be used to supplement or replace
portions of our investigation and therefore possibly modify the following Phase II ESA. If so,
Mr. Chris Dressel
March 4,2014
Page 11 of 18
then an updated revised proposal to complete the Phase II ESA will be forwarded to the client if
costs increase. Client will be credited for work not necessary as a result of the Hull investigation.
Soil Probe and Groundwater Sampling
Soil
To assess subsurface conditions, a series of soil probes will be advanced as located on Figure 3.
It is proposed that the soil probes be advanced with a direct-push Geoprobe®sampling rig. Using
these methods, each soil sampling location will first be probed to obtain continuous core samples
suitable for soil classification. Samples will also be collected and field screened for the presence
of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) by using a photoionization detector (PID). The probes
will be advanced to a maximum depth of the water table (likely less than 25 feet below the
ground surface(bgs)). However, in the area of the buried fill/foundations/debris located south of
Building 113 field conditions (i.e., visual observations, olfactory indications, or PID readings)
will dictate whether the probes continue to the groundwater table. However, a minimum of four
soil probes will be advance to the water table in that area.
Field indications (stained soil, fill, odor, elevated PID)will dictate what soil interval from which
a soil sample will be collected and submitted to an analytical laboratory for analysis. If there are
no field indications of impact then the soil sample will be obtained from the bottom of the probe
or just above the groundwater table if groundwater is encountered.
Laboratory-certified sampling containers for the soil will be filled in accordance with laboratory
specifications. The samples will be placed into a cooler, packaged with ice to maintain a
shipment temperature of approximately 4 degrees Centigrade, documented with a chain-of-
custody form, sealed, and shipped overnight or hand-delivered to the selected analytical
laboratory.
Groundwater
It is proposed that groundwater samples also be collected from select soil probes exhibiting
qualitative indications of impact. Groundwater sampling will be performed using a Hydropunch-
style tool at probe locations where groundwater is encountered. This tool consists of a hollow
casing within which is a 4-foot length of#10-slot stainless steel well screen. Once soil sampling
is completed at each probe location where groundwater sampling is also to be completed, the
Mr. Chris Dressel
March 4,2014
Page 12 of 18
well screen will be exposed beneath the groundwater. The groundwater sample will be collected
by using an inertial WaTerra pump. The pump consists of a riser tube with a one-way valve at
the foot and a surface pumping mechanism. The valve allows water to enter the tubing as it is
pushed downwards, and retains the water when the tube is pulled upwards again. The inertia of
the water itself provides the force to carry it up to the surface whenever the tube is being pumped
up and down. The water travels in a continuous column, with little disturbance, thus retaining
volatiles.
Laboratory-certified sampling containers will be filled (and preserved) in appropriate order.
Generally, the most volatile parameters are containerized first. Groundwater samples that are to
be analyzed for volatile parameters will be collected in 40 ml vials sealed with Teflon-lined lids.
The samples will be placed into a cooler, packaged with ice to maintain a shipment temperature
of approximately 4 degrees Centigrade, documented with a chain-of-custody form, sealed, and
shipped overnight or hand-delivered to the analytical laboratory.
The proposed Scope of Work for each area of concern is described in the following sections.
I) Transformer Room #3
Two (2) soil probes will be advanced to a depth of the water table adjacent to the former
subgrade transformer room where the concrete floor has been documented to be impacted with
PCBs. According to Hull, the groundwater flow direction in the area is towards the St. Joseph
River, or to the north-northeast. As a result, the soil probes are to be located as shown on Figure
3, immediately downgradient. Soil and/or ground water samples will be collected from each
probe.
2) Chemical/Petroleum Releases from Historical Usage
Four (4) probes will be advanced north of Buildings 112 and 84 and one (1) soil probe will be
advanced to the south of Building 84 in the courtyard (see Figure 3). The soil probes will be
advanced to the depth of the water table. Only groundwater samples will be collected from these
borings unless there are field indications of a soil impact.
3)Former UST Location
Four (4) probes will be advanced using the step-out procedure discussed in Chapter 3 of the
Remediation Closure Guide. These probes will be advanced to the depth of the water table. Soil
Mr. Chris Dressel
March 4,2014
Page 13 of 18
samples will be collected from each probe location and a minimum of two groundwater samples
will be collected from this area.
4)Buried Foundation and Debris
Four(4) soil probes will be advanced surrounding WPI GP-4 (where soil impacts were identified
in the 2012 Phase II ESA, northwest corner of open lot south of Building 113) using the step-out
procedure outlined in the Indiana RCG. The soil probes will be advanced to the water table. Soil
samples will be collected from each probe and a minimum of two groundwater samples will be
collected from the location.
In addition, fourteen (14) soil probes will be advanced within the perimeter of the buried
foundation and debris outside of GP-4. Background information indicates that this area is
comprised of at 3-5 feet of buried foundation and debris. Also, a portion of the area was
formerly occupied by a paint shop. The soil probes will be advanced to a minimum depth of 8
feet below the ground surface. Soil samples will be collected from each probe location. A
minimum of four soil probes will be advanced to the water table from which a groundwater
sample will be collected. If field conditions dictate, additional soil probes maybe advanced to the
water table and additional groundwater samples would be collected. Conversely, if less buried
debris is encountered then the number of soil probes may be reduced from fourteen.
Analytical Work
Soil and/or groundwater samples collected during this assessment will be collected in appropriate
containers and submitted to an approved laboratory for analysis. Specifically, the analyses
described below, where applicable, were obtained from the Indiana Department of
Environmental Management (IDEM) Remediation Program Guide — Table 3.1, Potential
Petroleum Contaminants,updated July 9,2012.
I) Transformer Room #3
Samples obtained at this location will be submitted for the following analysis:
• Polychlorinated Biphenyls(PCBs) (EPA Method 8082);
For estimating purposes, this proposal includes costs to analyze up to two (2) soil samples and
two(2)groundwater samples each.
Mr. Chris Dressel
March 4,2014
Page 14 of 18
2) Chemical/Petroleum Releases from Historical Usage
Samples obtained at this location will be submitted for the following analysis:
• Volatile Organic Compounds(EPA Method 8260);
• Polynuclear Aromatic Hydrocarbons(PAHs)(Method SW 8270); and
• RCRA 8 Heavy Metals (Method 6000/7000).
For estimating purposes, this proposal includes costs to analyze up to five (5) groundwater
samples. Samples will be analyzed for total metals,not dissolved.
3)Former UST Location
Samples obtained at this location will be submitted for the following analysis:
• Volatile Organic Compounds (EPA Method 8260);
• Polynuclear Aromatic Hydrocarbons(PAHs) (EPA Method 8270);
• Lead Scavengers (EPA Method 8011); and
• IDEM UST Metals (Method SW 6010B)
For estimating purposes, this proposal includes costs to analyze up to four (4) soil and two (20
groundwater samples. Ground water samples will be analyzed for total metals,not dissolved.
4)Buried Foundation and Debris
Samples obtained at this location will be submitted for the following analysis
• Volatile Organic Compounds(EPA Method 8260);
• Polynuclear Aromatic Hydrocarbons(PAHs) (EPA Method 8270); and
• RCRA 8 Metals(Method SW 6010B)
For estimating pur oses, this proposal includes costs to analyze up to eighteen (1 S) soil samples
and six (6) groundwater samples. Groundwater samples will be tested for total metals, not
dissolved.
Level IV data quality objectives (DQOs) will be met. IDEM typically requires the collection of
various quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) samples during any site characterization to
ensure proper sampling and analytical techniques are being followed. These include a matrix
spike/matrix spike duplicate(soil and water), field duplicate (soil and water) (one per 20 samples
or a minimum of one per day), and trip blank (one per day(water)). Weaver Boos estimates that
up to six soil samples, six water samples, and four trip blanks will be required to comply with
QA/QC requirements.

Report
Following completion of our fieldwork and receipt of the analytical data, we will prepare a
written report describing our methods of assessment, observations, and results obtained. Tabular
data summaries and figures will be included, as appropriate, to aid in our interpretation of the
results as compared to the appropriate chemicals of concern. Results will be compared to the
various RCG residential and commercial/industrial screening levels associated with possible soil,
groundwater, and vapor exposure pathways. The report will be separate from the Phase I ESA
report(Task 2).
If the results indicate that the site meets remediation objectives then no further investigative
action would be warranted and the IBP Letter can be requested from IBP. If the results do not
meet remediation objectives then a workplan for further investigation maybe recommended to be
submitted for IBP approval or the site may be referred to the Indiana SCP should an imminent
threat to human health and the environment be identified or off-site properties are impacted due
to sources on-site.
Task 4—Complete draft Environmental Restrictive Covenant(ERC)
The owner is required to satisfy certain statutory continuing or "due care" obligations with
respect to known site contamination to obtain certain IBP Letters. Based on the background
information for this site, Weaver Boos believes that to demonstrate to the IBP that these
obligations will be met, land use restrictions will be required (recording of an environmental
covenant or ERC) will be necessary to eliminate exposure pathways and to inform a technical
opinion on appropriate reasonable steps for the owner to undertake to try to maintain the liability
exemption. The name on the ERC should match the entity on the property deed, the Phase I
ESA, and the user questionnaire of the Phase I ESA. A draft ERC will be prepared by Weaver
Boos and submitted with the IBP Letter Request for their consideration. Note, the IBP will
finalize their own ERC and attach the document to the IBP Letter once issued. The document
must be recorded on the deed for the site with a certified copy of the filed document returned to
the IBP. In preparing the ERC (and the Site Status Letter request), the owner may need to
provide to Weaver Boos their final plans for the site.
Task 5—Submit Package to Client for Final Approval
Mr. Chris Dressel
March 4,2014
Page 16 of 18
Once Tasks 1-4 are completed, Weaver Boos will submit the package to the client for review,
approval, and signature from the property owner or lending institution, where applicable. At the
option of the client, Weaver Boos can submit the package to the IBP upon approval.
COST ESTIMATE
Weaver Boos proposes to perform the work as outlined in Phase I Tasks 1-4 and Phase II Tasks
1-5 on a time and material basis in accordance with our itemized cost estimate included in the
attachment. Based on our understanding of the client's objectives, our knowledge of the two
sites, and the Scope of Work outlined herein, we estimate the work can be completed for budgets
summarized below:
Phase I—Millennium Comfort Letter
Task/Item Estimated Cost
Complete Comfort Letter Request Form $ 339.00
Complete Phase I ESA $ 3,688.00
Complete draft ERC $678.00
Submit Package to Client $252.00
TOTAL $4,957.00
Mr. Chris Dressel
March 4,2014
Page 17 of 18
Phase I—Ivy Tower IBP Letter
Task/Item Estimated Cost
Complete IBP Letter Request Form $ 678.00
Complete Phase I ESA $4,716.00
Complete Phase II ESA/Site Investigation $ 32,113.00
Complete draft ERC $ 678.00
Submit Package to Client $ 252.00
TOTAL $38,437.00
OVERALL TOTAL $43,394.00
Phase I and II of this project will be completed concurrently. Weaver Boos estimates Phase I can
be completed within 4 weeks. Phase II can be completed within 8 weeks possibly longer
depending on the completion of the Hull groundwater investigation described herein. Further,
Phase II may also be delayed due to the upcoming PCB-cleanup project involving Transformer
Room #3. The IBP may delay the IBP Letter until the cleanup project has been completed and
the final completion report is submitted to the USEPA with a copy to IDEM.
Once the packages are submitted to the IBP the typical turn-around time for the IBP Letter
according to Mr. Kevin Davis is 120 days, but will likely be longer depending on the complexity
and the results of the PCB-cleanup.
If conditions change, work extends beyond the scheduled completion date, unforeseen
circumstances or environmental conditions are encountered, or work efforts are redirected our
cost estimate may require modification.
We fully expect to complete the outlined tasks described above for the stated sum, and this cost
will not be exceeded without your prior authorization. You will be invoiced on a unit-rate basis
only for the work actually performed.

FAX:317-234-1338
Pursuant to the Indiana Department of Environmental Management(IDEM)Nonrule Policy Document W-0051,"Brownfields Program Comfort
and Site Status Letters Policy"(April 18,2003),the Indiana Brownfields Program may issue a Comfort or Site Status Letter to stakeholders at
brownfields sites that satisfy the eligibility criteria and conditions of the policy.
Brownfield Site Definition
A brownfield site is defined as a parcel of real estate that is abandoned or inactive;or may not be operated at its appropriate
use; and on which expansion or redevelopment is complicated because of the presence or potential presence of a
hazardous substance,a contaminant, petroleum,or a petroleum product that poses a risk to human health and the
environment. IC 13-11-2-19.3
Comfort Letter
A Comfort Letter is issued to a party that qualifies for an applicable exemption to liability found in Indiana law or IDEM policy,
but is not a legal release from liability. The Comfort Letter explains the applicable liability exemption or IDEM's exercise of
enforcement discretion under an applicable IDEM policy. Potentially applicable liability exemptions or IDEM policies include:
✓ the Stakeholder is a government entity exempt from liability under IC 13-25-4-8(e), IC 13-11-2-150(c), or IC 13-
11-2-151(b);
✓ the Stakeholder is a creditor, lender,or fiduciary exempt from liability under IC 13-23-13-14, IC 13-24-1-10, or IC
13-25-4-8(c);
✓ the Stakeholder is not the statutory owner of an underground storage tank pursuant to IC 13-11-2-150(a)
because the tanks were not used after November 8, 1984 and the Stakeholder was not the person who owned
the tank immediately before the discontinuation of the tank's use;
✓ the Stakeholder is exempt from liability or eligible for a defense to liability as a bona fide prospective purchaser,
contiguous property owner or innocent landowner pursuant to IC 13-25-4-8(b); and
✓ the Stakeholder satisfies the conditions of IDEM Nonrule Policy Document W-0047,"Property Containing
Contaminated Aquifers"(20 IR 1674, January 30, 1997), or IDEM Nonrule Policy Document W-0038"Property
Containing Contaminated Aquifers/Underground Storage Tanks"(23 IR 2141,April 20,2000).
Site Status Letter
A Site Status Letter is issued to a party that did not cause or contribute to or knowingly exacerbate the contamination and
can demonstrate that current levels of contaminants of concern at the brownfield substantially meet current cleanup criteria
as established by IDEM under the Risk Integrated System of Closure. The potential liability of the party requesting the letter
is not addressed. The Site Status Letter states that based on a technical analysis of information submitted to IDEM
pertaining to site conditions, IDEM concludes that current site conditions do not present a threat to human health or the
environment and that IDEM does not plan to take or require a response action at the brownfield site.
INSTRUCTIONS: Please complete this form(type or print legibly)and return it to the Indiana Brownfields Program to begin the process of
assessing eligibility to receive a letter. Each request will be reviewed by the Indiana Brownfields Program and IDEM staff.
Determinations of eligibility are made based on facts and data provided with the request. A decision on whether or not to
issue a Comfort or Site Status Letter will be made approximately 60 days from receipt of the request. The complexity of
technical issues pertaining to site conditions may increase staff review time. Please attach any additional documentation
required if space on the form does not allow for a complete response.

WEAVER BOOS CONSULTANTS
Phase I Environmental Site Assessment
User-Provided Information Questionnaire
This questionnaire is based upon Section X3 of the American Society for Testing and Alalerials(ASTA-!)Standard
Practice for Environmental Site Assessments: Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Process(E 1527-13).
In order to qualify for one of the landowner Liability Protections (LLPs) offered by 40 CFR
312, the user must provide the available information requested in numbers I through 6,
following.
In addition, while the information requested in numbers 7 through 19 is not required to qualify
for one of the LLPs, it is typically necessary to assist us in completing the Phase I ESA. Lack of
this requested information could result in data gaps within the Phase I ESA. Weaver Boos
requests that the respondent provide the requested information and include comments where
applicable, such as the information is not available or unknown, and sign the last page of the
questionnaire. This affirms that the respondent has answered all questions to the best of the
respondent's actual knowledge and in good faith.
I. Environmental liens that are filed or recorded against the Property (40 CFR
312.25). Did a search of recorded land title records (or judicial records where
appropriate) identify any environmental liens filed or recorded against the property under
federal,tribal,state or local law?
2. Activity and use limitations that are in place on the property or that have been filed
or recorded against the property (40 CFR 312.26). Did a search of recorded land title
records (or judicial records where appropriate) identify any AULs, such as engineering
controls, land use restrictions or institutional controls that are in place at the Property
and/or have been filed or recorded against the property under federal,tribal, state or local
law?
