Hello, this is Leigh Anderson, I'm the project manager with DERR for Pride Cleaners
and I've been out to see you a few times. I haven't received a site characterization
report and I was told by wasatch that there is a delay in this a while back, but I
thought I would check in again.
Also, I was contacted over the last few days by individuals involved in the
development of the site immediately adjacent to you to the north. They will be starting
work soon. Any contamination migrating from your site to offsite should be
characterized, but it's probably also not unreasonable for you to reach out to the
adjacent property and coordinate with them. I was also wondering what if any plans
or approaches you currently have for what's going on on-site.
Thank you,
Leigh Anderson

Hello Leigh. I’m sorry you’ve missed me. I am kind of in and out these days. If you
want to reach out to me before you go out, I can meet you there or we can figure out
a time if that is best? So we’ve had a couple delays with the financing on the
project, so we are a little behind, but still moving forward. Wasatch is waiting for a
payment before they release the site characterization. I believe but the bank should
be wrapping up soon, so we will be able to move forward at that point.

Hi Jake,
As a follow-up to Leigh's email, below are two excerpts from the Voluntary Cleanup
Agreement:
"If the site characterization demonstrates that contaminants have been released on
and potentially migrated off-site above Screening Levels or other published standards,
the Applicant shall adequately delineate the extent of contamination for the purposes
of evaluating the risk, managing the on-site and off-site contaminant impact and
potentially remediating the impact. The delineation shall be completed in conjunction
with the site characterization activities and documented in the Site Characterization
Report."
" If residual soil and/or groundwater contamination remains at the Site and/or the
neighboring property(s) after completion of the Applicant’s site characterization and
remedial action, the Applicant shall submit a Site Management Plan (SMP) detailing
how the remaining contamination will be managed."

If work is starting on the adjacent property, and impacts have been released on and
potentially migrated off-site above Screening Levels or other published standards, now
is a good time to address this part of the agreement. Please provide us an update and
propose next steps since we have not heard from you recently.
Thanks,
Bill

Hey Jake, it's good to hear from you, good luck with the bank.
I'd be happy to meet on site once you feel you are ready to move forward. That would
also be a good time for us to discuss an approach for the contaminants that are
migrating off-site.
Please keep us informed about your plans and schedule.
