Hi Ted:

I have reviewed the files for the Rail Systems sites in the area of the former Harvester Yard (CP Rail Systems- 504 SLayton Blvd, Milwaukee, WI FID# 241441750). I have found 3 different activities that are still open on our database. I have reviewed the case files and database records. Based on my review, the following changes will be made.

02-41-173165 This site is in the same area and was co-mingled with contamination from 02-41-001100. The submittals regarding 02-41-001100 also addressed the contamination associated with this activity, therefore, the closure letter dated August 5, 2004 and the clarification letter dated January 24, 2007 also apply to this activity. A copy of this email will be added to the GIS packet of that site located on the WDNR's Registry of Contaminated Properties available at http://dnrmaps.wisconsin.gov/imf/imf.jsp?site=brrts2 Also, our database has been updated to reflect this decision.

02-41-515224 This site has been closed with an industrial land-use control and will be placed on the WDNR's Registry of Contaminated Properties available at http://dnrmaps.wisconsin.gov/imf/imf.jsp?site=brrts2 Here is a copy of the final closure letter: ~ ~ CP Rail Systems Final Closure ...

03-41-152873 This site is in the same area and appears to be co-mingled with contamination from 03-41-494911 which was closed by the Wisconsin Department of Commerce on June 6, 2002. Because it appears that the contamination associated with this activity has been addressed {by actions taken regarding 02-41-001100 and 03-41-.494911) the WDNR has determined that no action is required regarding this site.

Canadian Pacific Railway Project CMXX-97-0371 September 14, 1998 Page 2

Site Physiography and Geology

The site is located in the Menomonee River Valley which is at an elevation approximately 60 feet below the surrounding topography. The Menomonee River curves around the southeast side of the site and is located approximately 1,400 feet to the east and approximately 1,600 feet to the south. The river water elevation is approximately 10 feet below the surface elevation of the site. Groundwater was noted entering the UST excavation which had a depth of 6 feet below ground surface (bgs). Based on the approximate groundwater and surface water elevations at the two locations, a groundwater flow to the east and/or south towards the Menomonee River is expected.

Because the site is located in the river valley, the surficial soil deposits are most likely fluvial in nature. Typical soil types found in shallow soil borings placed in the river valley (approximately 2,100 feet to the southeast of the site at Harvester yard) consists of clayey silt with seams of silty sand to a depth of 16 feet bgs.

Sampling and Analyses Strategy

The field investigation will be a subsurface soil and groundwater sampling and analyses effort. Discrete subsurface soil samples will be collected at 2.5-foot intervals from the surface to termination depth of 10 to 15 feet from five borings completed around the UST basin. Three of the borings will be completed as monitoring wells upon reaching the termination depth.

In-situ hydraulic conductivity testing will be obtained from two of the monitoring wells upon completion of well development using the methods of Bower and Rice (1976) and Hvorslev (1951).

During the UST site investigation, soil sample analysis revealed low levels of DRO analytes above detection limits. The soil and groundwater samples collected during the remedial investigation will be analyzed for PVOCs and DRO.

A maximum of two soil samples from each boring will be analyzed for PVOCs and DRO. Groundwater samples will be collected from each of the three monitoring wells and analyzed for PVOCs and DRO. Canadian Pacific Railway Project CMXX-97-0371 September 14, 1998 Page 3

Scope of Work

The following tasks will be completed as part of this workplan:

• Collect soil samples for field screening at 2.5-foot intervals from five locations near the release area (Figure 2).

• Complete three, 2-inch diameter PVC, groundwater monitoring wells near the release area (Figure 2).

• Screen soil samples for the presence of organic vapors using photoionization detector (PID) or flame ionization detector (FID) headspace methods.

• Collect two laboratory analytical soil samples from each boring at the depth interval yielding the highest headspace reading and at least two feet above the groundwater interface.

• Analyze up to ten soil samples for DRO and PVOCs. Laboratory analytical testing will be performed at a State of Wisconsin certified environmental laboratory (NR-149).

• Conduct In-situ hydraulic conductivity testing in two of the monitoring wells upon completion of well development using the methods of Bower and Rice (1976) and Hvorslev (1951).

• Collect groundwater samples from the three monitoring wells. Groundwater samples will be analyzed for DRO and PVOCs. A trip blank will also be analyzed for DRO and PVOCs as part of quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC).

• Prepare a remedial investigation report detailing the methods, procedures, conclusions and recommendations for further work, if necessary. Canadian Pacific Railway Project CMXX-97-0371 September 14, 1998 Page 4

Dear Ms. Thomas:

Re: Work Plan for Subsurface Investigation at the Soo Line Railroad Company/Canadian Pacific Railway Barrel Storage Area, Harvester Yard, Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Braun lntertec Corporation (Braun Intertec) is pleased to present this work plan for conducting .a subsurface investigation at the above referenced site. The scope of work detailed below is based on the WAC NR 700 series, Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (WDNR) environmental protection regulations regarding the investigation and remediation of environmental contamination. The objective of the work is to define the magnitude and extent of soil and potential groundwater contamination and evaluate the local geological and hydrogeological conditions. The results of this investigation will be used to determine an appropriate remedial response.

Background

The Soo Line Railroad Company, doing business as Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR), conducts railroad operations at the Harvester Yard facility, located at 504 Layton Boulevard in Milwaukee,Wisconsin. This area occupies the northwest quarter of Section 31, Township 7 North, Range 22 East, and is within a heavily industrialized portion of the Menomonee River Valley (Figure 1).

The site, at this point, is defined by the footprint of a barrel storage facility constructed by CPR in 1997 (Figure 2). The site is adjacent to an active fueling facility, which included a 100,000-gallon above-ground storage tank (AST), pumphouse and above-ground and underground piping. These structures were all removed in 1997; during the removal operations evidence of petroleum-impacted soil was observed and a petroleum release was reported to the WDNR in July, 1997. Locomotive fueling presently occurs through direct truck transfer.

CPR has also been actively investigating a historic petroleum release associated with an oil/water separator system just south of the barrel storage building. A waste-oil underground storage tank (UST), which stored both waste oil from site operations and the skimmed product collected by the oil/water separator system, was excavated in 1996. Soil and groundwater impacts have been documented from both soil borings and monitoring wells. - Canadian Pacific Railway Project No. CMXX-97--0842 March 6, 1998 Page 2

On December 8 and 9, 1997, the site was excavated in order to lay the foundation of a barrel storage facility. The excavated subsurface material consisted of sand and gravel fill with some construction debris and railroad ties to approximately 3 feet below ground surface (bgs). Clays and silts with fine sand layers were encountered to the bottom depth of the excavation, at approximately 5 feet bgs. A portion of a concrete footing was located within the excavation footprint. This concrete was demolished and removed off site by the excavating contractor. Soils were excavated only to the extent necessary for construction of the barrel storage building. No groundwater was observed; but groundwater levels from 10 to 17 feet bgs were observed during installation of the monitoring wells for the oil/water separator investigation. Perched water was observed at a depth of 4 feet bgs in the fill soils during the oil/water separator investigation.

Some of the excavated soil was stained and displayed a strong petroleum odor. Braun Intertec personnel collected three soil samples from the bottom of the excavation, which were analyzed for Diesel Range Organics (DRO). The laboratory results indicated concentrations of DRO above the WDNR action level of 10 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg). Two of the soil samples were also above the 250 mg/kg WDNR GRCL for clayey soils. Affected soils were segregated, stockpiled on, and covered with 6-mil polyethylene sheeting on site.

Drums containing petroleum products were formerly stored on the ground within the footprint of the excavation area. These drums were removed by CPR personnel prior to the start of construction activities.

An additional potential source of site petroleum impacts was discovered during excavation activities. At approximately 5 feet bgs, near the base of excavation, an orphan 4-inch-diameter black iron pipe with a roughly north-south orientation was uncovered. The soil around this piping was noticeably more stained than the shallower soil. The existence and historic use of this piping was not known to CPR personnel, and it does not appear on railroad engineering maps. While the site has been part of an active for more than 100 years, CPR has only owned the site since 1985, and has limited information on historic operations at the site.

Scope of Work

Based on the site history and status of adjacent investigations, Braun Intertec proposes the following scope of work:

• Conduct three soil borings to approximately 20 feet bgs at the locations shown in Figure 2. Soil samples will be collected at 2.5-foot intervals for headspace screening and possible laboratory analysis. From each borehole, the soil sample with the highest field screening result and the soil sample beneath that with less than 10 parts per million (ppm) detected with the field-screening instrument will be sent to the laboratory for analysis. If field screening indicates non-detectable or less 10 ppm volatile organic vapors, then one sample will be collected at the soil/groundwater interface. Canadian Pacific Railway Project No. CMXX-97-0842 March 6, 1998 Page 3

• Visually classify the soil in accordance with ASTM D 2487 "Standard Test Method for Classification of Soils for Engineering Purposes" and ASTM D 2488 "Standard Practice for Description and Identification of Soils (Visual-Manual Procedure)." This will be done by a Braun Intertec geologist.

• Install monitoring wells in the above-mentioned soil borings if, based on field observations, groundwater impacts are evident. Since perched water may be encountered, there is a potential need for nested wells.

• Develop, stabilize and sample the groundwater monitoring wells in accordance with WDNR "Groundwater Sampling Field Manual (PUBL-DG-038, Sept. 96)" and "Groundwater Sampling Desk Reference (PUBL-DG-037, Sept 96)."

• Perform quarterly water level measurements at the monitoring wells.

• Analyze soil samples for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) - EPA Method 8021, polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) - EPA Method 8310 and diesel DRO.

• Perform in-situ hydraulic conductivity tests in each of the monitoring wells.

• Conduct three rounds of quarterly groundwater sampling.

• Analyze groundwater samples for VOCs, PAHs and DRO, with laboratory analytical testing performed at a State of Wisconsin certified environmental laboratory (NR 149). Assuming that any contamination encountered is petroleum related, the second and third round of sampling will be for PVOCs and DRO.

• Analyze groundwater samples for the following bioattenuation parameters: dissolved oxygen, oxygen reduction potential, specific conductivity, alkalinity, total N as nitrate+nitrite, total sulfate and total iron+manganese.

• Survey the location of monitoring wells and borings and revise the established site map prepared for the adjacent oil/water separator site.

• Review data from the adjacent environmentally impacted areas on site where investigations are currently being performed and incorporate the information into the Braun Intertec report.

• Prepare a subsurface investigation report, as per NR 716.15, detailing the methods, procedures, conclusions and recommendations for further work, if necessary.

Soil cuttings from the performance of the soil borings will be placed on the existing stockpile, to be disposed of once the analyses of the soil is completed. Groundwater from monitoring well development will be placed in 55-gallon drums and labeled as non-hazardous until the analyses are completed. Based on the results of the analyses, disposal of the soil and groundwater will be handled appropriately. Canadian Pacific Railway Project No. CMXX-97-0842 March 6, 1998 Page 4
