This condition constitutes a release and/or threat of release of oil or hazardous materials from the site. The prevention and/or mitigation of such a release or threat of release is governed by M.G.L. ch. 21E, the "Massachusetts Oil and Hazardous Material Release, Prevention and Response Act." Chapter 21E identifies as responsible parties the current owner or operator of a site from or at which there is or has been a release or threat of release of oil or hazardous material; the past owner or operator of such a site; any person who directly or indirectly arranged for the transport, disposal , storage or treatment of hazardous materials to or at such a site; any person who transported hazardous materials to such a site; and any person who otherwise caused or is legally responsible for a release or a threat of release at such a site. Such parties are jointly and severally liable without regard to fault (M.G.L. ch. 21E, section 5(a) ) . This letter is to inform you in writing that: (1 ) Information available to the Department of Environmental Quality Engineering indicates that you may be a liable party pursuant to section 5(a) as described above; (2) The Department is authorized pursuant to M.G.L. ch . 21E sections 3A( j ) and 4 to take such response actions at the site as it deems necessary should you fail to respond to the release or threat of release in an appropriate and timely manner; and (3) You may take the prescribed response actions in lieu of the Department. Original Printed on 100% Recycled Paper Your liability noted in ( 1 ) above may include up to three (3) times the cost of any and all response actions conducted by the Department due to the release/threat of release, including all contract, administrative, and personnel casts. In addition, you may be liable for all damages for any injury to, destruction, or lass of natural resources due to the release/threat of release. Additional liability may be imposed under M.G.L. ch. 21E section 11 in the form of fines or penalties for each violation of chapter 21E. Your liability constitutes a debt to the Commonwealth. The debt, together with interest, constitutes a lien on all of your property in the Commonwealth. In addition to the foreclosure remedy provided by the lien, the Attorney General of the Commonwealth may recover that debt or any part of it in an action against you. You may be liable for additional penalties or damages pursuant to other statutes or common law. The Department has determined that a Preliminary Assessment and Phase I - Limited Site Investigation must be completed at this site in accordance with 310 CMR 40.541 and 310 CMR 40.543, respectively. The need for Short Term Measures (310 CMR 40.542) should be evaluated throughout this process and the final report should include a completed Interim Disposal Site Classification System form (310 CMR 40.544) and a scope of work for a Phase II - Comprehensive Site Assessment (310 CMR 40.545) , if needed. If you intend to undertake the required actions, you must notify the Department in writing of your intent no later than seven (7) days from the date you receive this letter and contract with an environmental consultant capable of performing this work and acceptable to the Department. Your consultant must be able to submit to the Department a Preliminary Assessment, a Phase I - Limited Site Investigation report, the completed Interim Disposal Site Classification System form, and a scope of work for Phase II, if needed, by no later than ninety (90) days from the date of this letter. Depending on the information generated by the above work, the Department may require additional investigations, studies, and actions. If you fail to take these actions or if you fail to perform these tasks in accordance with the Department's requirements, the Department may perform response actions in your stead and recover up to three (3) times its costs from you in accordance with the provisions described above. If the Department does not hear from you within the time specified above, the Department will assume that you have refused to accept responsibility for the site. The Department will soon thereafter commence response actions, and will expect to recover to the full extent of the liability set forth above. If you have any questions regarding this notice, please contact Robert Terenzi or Alan Weinberg of Emergency Response. Future correspondence and/or reports should be submitted to Alan Weinberg of Waste Site Clean-up.

Callander: The Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) has reviewed a report regarding the field investigation conducts] on and off-site at City Auto Repair in Northampton. This report, which was received on September 1, 1989 was submitted in your behalf by Environmental Compliance SArvices, Inc and contains the results and recommendations from the field work performed during the week of August 21, 1989. Environmental Compliance Services, Inc. (ItS) has concluded that no imminent hazards exist at this time and no further ER actions are necessary. These conclusions are based on their field investigations which indicate: (1) Migration in the gravel pack of the storm drain does not extend south on Pleasant Street beyond the intersection with Pearl St. (2) Vapor is minimal at the storm pipe discharge and no separate phase product is visible in the discharge. The DEP approves ECS's recommendation to complete the Phase I - Limited Site Investigation as required by the Notice of Responsibility issued on June 19, 1989. The need for Short Term Measures should be evaluated throughout the study. Seca Ice there is separate phase product in monitoring wells D25-2 and ECS-3 and there is dissolved petroleum product entering the storm pipe in two locations, the potential for an imminent hazard still exists. Therefore, the DEP requires that you continue monitoring the storm drain with an explosive meter and inspect the storm pipe discharge for vapors and visible petroleum contaminants on a monthly basis. In the event of a noticeable change in effluent or a reading above 5% of the lower explosive limit, immediately notify the DEP and the local fire department. If you have any questions, please contact Lisa Jones of this office.

Background The Department was initially notified of a release of #2 oil at the site following your submittal of a site investigation report prepared by TRC Environmental Consultants dated March 16, 1987 . The Department reviewed this report and issued Whiting Oil Corporation a Notice of Responsibility dated April 29, 1987 . This notice identified Whiting Oil as a "responsible party" and required Whiting Oil to perform additional investigative work. The Department received a followup site investigation report dated August 26, 1987 and several letters containing additional data from TRC Environmental Consultants. Following a review of the submitted reports and additional data, the Department sent you a letter which concluded: "Based on the data submitted in this report and addendums, the Department has determined that the site conditions do not warrant further actions at this time pursuant to the Massachusetts Oil and Hazardous Materials Release Prevention and Response Act (MGL ch. 21E) . C.!Pnnred on Recycled Paper The Department's determination in this matter is based on facts and information presented to the Department at this time, and shall not limit the response or action it might take regarding this property in the event that further information comes to the attention of the Department. Should, at any time in the future, the conditions at the property pose a release or threat of release of oil and/or hazardous materials, the Department will exercise its response and enforcement authority accordingly. " The Department obtained further information regarding this site in reports entitled "Phase I Limited Site Investigation Addendum Number 1 - City Auto Repair" and "Addendum II. .. .City Auto Repair" both prepared by Environmental Compliance Services and dated September 1990 and December 19, 1990, respectively. Information presented in these reports indicates the presence of petroleum hydrocarbons resembling diesel (#2) oil at locations SSP-4, ECS-9, and STM-4 as shown on the attached map. At location SSP-4, a sample of soil and liquid was obtained from a sampling port which was installed by drilling outward from the storm drain pipe into subsurface soil. Lab analysis of the soil sample revealed 81,000 mg/kg of unidentified petroleum hydrocarbons most closely resembling heavily weathered diesel (#2) oil. Analysis of the liquid sample indicates > 95% diesel fuel found by petroleum scan. At location ECS-9, a monitoring well was installed and the soil cuttings and groundwater were sampled. Analyses of these samples revealed 17,000 mg/kg of fuel oil #2 detected in soil and 260 mg/kg diesel fuel detected in the groundwater. At location STM-4 (ten feet upstream of the storm water outfall) , a sample of surface soil/riverbank sediment was taken and analyzed. The results showed 1500 mg/kg of unidentified petroleum material closely resembling a mineral/lubricating oil. Although a match with #2 oil was not made at this location, the Department cannot rule out a contribution from the #2 oil observed in the upgradient locations. OPrinted on ReMled Pape.. Based on the data presented above, the Department concludes that the release of #2 oil from the former Whiting Oil property (now Hampton Housing Associates property) has migrated in a southerly direction to abutting properties: Lot 333 (City of Northampton Bike Path) , Lot 164 (Richard Boyle) , and Lot 163 (Randolph Place Condo Trust) . The movement of this oil has the potential or may already be impacting the surface of the former Mill River bed and may be contributing to the nuisance odors reported by the residents at Randolph Place Condominiums. Department Determinations The Department has determined that additional environmental investigation activities are necessary to determine the extent and impact of the #2 oil release and to evaluate the risk of this release to public health and the environment. Pursuant to the MCP, the Department requires you to submit supplemental information to update the previous reports to meet the requirements of a Phase I - Limited Site Investigation Report as outlined in 310 CMR 40.543. You must also submit a completed Preliminary Assessment (PA) Form (310 CMR 40 541) , an Interim Site Classification Form (ISCF) (310 CMR 40.544) , and a Scope of Work for a Phase II - Comprehensive Site Assessment (310 CMR 40.545) , if needed. If the additional site investigation activities and the completed ISCF indicate that the site is a non-priority site, you may apply for a waiver of Department approvals. If a waiver application is approved by the Department, most response actions may be completed without further Department approvals. Waiver Applications can be obtained by writing to the Waiver Unit, Department of Environmental Protection, Bureau of Waste Site Cleanup, One Winter Street, Boston, MA 02108. If at any time an imminent hazard, as defined in 310 CMR 40.542 is identified at the location, you must notify the Department immediately, and submit a proposal for a short term measure. No short term measures may be commenced without prior Department approval. If you intend to accept responsibility for the continued assessment and remediation for the site, you must notify the Department in writing of your intent no later than fourteen (14) business days from the date you receive this letter. 0 hinted on Recycled P pe If you have any questions regarding this notice, please contact Lisa Jones or Al Weinberg of the Bureau of Waste Site Cleanup at the letterhead address.

Musante, The City Council, The Board of Public Health, and the Massachusetts Departmental of Environmental Protection : As residents of the Pleasant Street area, including properties adjacent to the Mill River between Conz and Pleasant streets, we have had to contend for more than a year now with the noxious fumes that have resulted from the gasoline leakage at City Auto Repair . We have repeatedly called the board of health, and have been told that we are not being exposed to any health hazard . Many of us have suffered headaches and nausea that indicate otherwise . It has even been suggested to us that the odors are those of skunks, and not of gasoline fumes . We may indeed have a family of skunks among us, but we also have continuing GASOLINE FUMES . The filtering apparatus that is in place is an eyesore and a constant source of noise, but it is not eliminating the problem. We are frustrated and angry, and demand that action ' itiated immediately to remedy this situation. ^ — Address > 2 / / 'nc/ty1, I'' /?cf _ LI Name.-.,) kliv »I F { !L S.

The report was submitted on your behalf by Environmental Compliance Services (ECS) of Springfield, Massachusetts. According to the Phase I report, a release of oil and/or hazardous materials occurred at the City Auto property as a result of a leaking underground storage tank system. Evidence of gasoline contamination in the form of a sheen on the water and vapors in the storm drain were observed in the adjacent storm drain discharge system. (This system runs along Pearl Street to Pleasant Street and then runs in an approximate westerly direction, parallelling the former railroad bed, until discharging into a small stream behind the Randolph Place condominiums.) Consequently, three monitoring wells were installed on the property. More than two feet of separate- phase petroleum product, presumably gasoline, has been observed in both downgradient monitoring wells. A temporary passive recovery system was installed to remove floating product from those wells Water samples from the wells were not collected and subjected to laboratory analysis, apparently due to the presence of the floating product. Correspondence submitted to the Department prior to completion of the Phase I report indicates that efforts have been made to seal any evident leaks in the storm drain that might have allowed petroleum product to enter the storm drain, and a vapor recovery system has been placed on the drainage pipe at its outlet behind the Randolph Place condominiums.

Additional investigation that must be performed in order to more adequately characterize the nature and extent of contamination in terms of potential imminent hazards includes: 1) the installation of a monitoring well across Pearl Street, on the opposite side of the storm drain, in order to determine the level of contamination that may be moving in a downgradient direction beyond the storm drain, 2) the installation of a monitoring well immediately downgradient of the former waste oil tank in order to determine whether contamination from the tank is impacting groundwater, City Auto - Page 3 3) sampling and analysis of soils beneath the former waste oil tank for ' total petroleum hydrocarbons,io al volatile compounds (including chlorinated solvents), 4) sampling of groundwater from all wells that do not contain a Y separate phase of petroleum product and subsequent laboratory analysis for volatile organic compounds (including chlorinated solvents). In addition, a total petroleum hydrocarbon analysis should be conducted on the water obtained from the downgradient of the waste oil tank location, that is to be installed tion, 5) the performance of a soil gas survey on the property and surrounding area, particularly in the vicinity of the storm drain, to more effectively determine the migration path of vapors associated with the gasoline contamination emanating from the site. additional investigation should be completed within an days of the date of this This letter.

Since it is not expected that construction activities will encounter groundwater, that contingency will not be addressed in this letter. However, there is a slight possibility that some contaminated soil could be encountered in the construction areas. In anticipation of that, the City should endeavor to have a consultant on-site that is knowledgable in the field of contaminated soil analysis, storage, and removal as detailed in "Management Procedures for Excavated Soils Contaminated with Virgin Petroleum Oils (Policy #WSC-89-001). At a minimum, soils excavated in the vicinity of City Auto should be screened in the field for volatile organic compounds via the jar-headspace method outlined in the above policy. AU soils indicating significant levels of contamination must be managed in accordance with that policy, and the Department of Environmental Protection must be notified. Of particular concern during construction activities in the vicinity of City Auto are the health and safety considerations related to possible excessive levels of gasoline vapors in the construction area. This is most likely to be a problem when the asphalt is being ripped up or when soils are being disturbed. An appropriate Health and Safety plan should be developed for the construction site which takes that possibility into consideration. At a minimum, the breathing air of the construction workers should be monitored at appropriate intervals using standard methodologies and equipment, and contaminant levels requiring the use of personal protective equipment and/or other appropriate measures must be established.

The Department is therefore requiring that. Environmental Compliance Services, the consultant for City Auto Repair, sample groundwater in the vicinity of the storm sewer by the most appropriate and feasible method.

NH Dear Sir/Madam: As per 310 CMR 40.1403(3)0), the Massachusetts Contingency Plan Public Notification requirements, this letter serves as notification of the availability of a Response Action Outcome Statement for the above-referenced facility. On May 31, 1989, the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) received a report that gasoline was being discharged from a storm sewer system into the Mill River located approximately 0.2 miles southwest of the site. The source of the gasoline sheen and vapors was identified by the DEP as the City Auto Repair site. Between June 7, and June 9, 1989, six (6) underground storage tanks (USTs) were excavated and removed from the site. Upon completion of the tank removals, a release of oil and/or hazardous materials (OHM) was evident at the former gasoline and waste oil tank locations Since the removal of USTs, the conditions which caused the initial release notification appear to have abated over the past seven years due to natural attenuation and biodegradation. In addition, the groundwater for the site has been reclassified as a non-potential drinking water source. A risk assessment was conducted on the property, and an Activity and Use Limitation was imposed at a portion of the facility in order to minimize human contact with the subsurface contaminants. As per 310 CMR 40.1403(7), the Massachusetts Contingency Plan Public Notification requirements, please find enclosed a copy of the Activity and Use Limitation (AUL) registered with the Hampshire County Registry of Deeds on July 10, 1997 (Book 5155, Page 84).

Strong, noxious odors, reminiscent of petroleum refinery sludge, constantly assault the residents, making it impossible to reside outdoors The odor - a greasy, syrup-like plume that seems to coat the mouth and nose with tar, sickening anyone who inhales it - is beyond repulsive. This health hazard needs addressing NOW, before warmer weather turns this foul stream and its virulent cocktail of distillates into a more volatile situation than it already is. Please contact me at the address below to inform me what measures the city is taking to rectify this hazard. Incidentally, I noticed an article appearing in a 1990 issue of the Hampshire Gazette describing this very same unctuous problem, and assigning some of the blame on a (now defunct) gas station at the corner of Pleasant and Pearl St. Whether underground tanks are leaking needs to be determined and the stream cleaned up. This situation will not amend by wishful thinking alone. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.

The work will include both the collection of stream and streambank sediment from several locations along the stream and the sampling of groundwater from the monitoring well discovered along the former railrod bed. From the location, this well is presumed to be well MW-5 from a previous investigation of the Whiting Oil property. The purpose of sampling both stream sediment and material from the streambank is to distinguish between possible contamination that has been introduced into the stream sediment from runoff and that which might be entering the streambank area due to subsurface migration. A total of four samples of stream sediment will be collected from the edges of the stream bed during a period of low flow. Sampling locations are noted on Figure 1. One sample is to be taken immediately downstream of the culvert outfall at the western end of the municipal walkway. Other stream sediment samples will be collected at approximately 100-200-foot intervals along the stream, with one sample taken downstream of the small culvert entering the stream from beneath the walkway, one sample taken at the bend in the stream, and one sample taken downstream of the culvert outfall behind the condominiums. Samples of streambank sediment will be obtained either by excavating 1-2 feet into the bank with a shovel and collecting the sample from a depth at or slightly below the observed water table or by hand-augering into the bank area to the depth of the water table and collecting the sample at that point. Four to five samples will he collected along the northern and eastern banks of the stream in areas where visual or olfactory evidence or analytical screening methods (such as headspace analysis) suggests that the highest levels of contamination might be found. At a minimum, samples will be obtained downgradient from the small culvert, at the bend in the stream, and behind the condominium complex. All sediment samples will be screened for volatile organic compounds via approved headspace methodology using a photo- or flame-ionization detector. Samples will he submitted to a state-certified laboratory and analyzed for volatile organic compounds via EPA method 8240 and total petroleum hydrocarbons via a hydrocarbon scan methodolgy developed for the gas chromatograph. The hydrocarbon scan should yield both quantitative and qualitative information on the amount and type of petroleum hydrocarbons present in the samples. Randolf Place S.O.W. - Page 2 Groundwater from the available monitoring well should be sampled using appropriate methodologies, including a thorough well-development process since the well has been inactive for an extended period of time. Following collection, the groundwater sample should be analyzed for volatile organic compounds via EPA method 624 and for total petroleum hydrocarbons via a hydrocarbon scan, as noted above for the sediment samples. Pending the results of the laboratory analyses, a decision will be made as to what further actions or additional investigation will be required. It is likely, however, that additional monitoring wells will be required on, or downgradient from, the former Whiting Oil property. 1 •! t 6L • `'9' El t d 08 ` t 16_ F1 s C • d 9 �' \ SL V in if f o• i• - tsL • 4 .11--- -9 r Y\ , . .... .? • f* 29./ £L <0 f '. e9 r .
