Re: Request for Comfort Letter
RG IV, LLC
Undeveloped 900 Acres — East of Sheep Lane and North of SR-112 in Tooele,
Utah
Dear Scott:
Enclosed please find a Request for Comfort Letter ("Request") for RG IV, LLC ("RG
IV"), a $500 application fee, and a copy of the Phase I Environmental Site Assessment
supporting the Request. RG IV intends to purchase 900 acres of land, located near the Utah
Motorsports Campus, east of Sheep Lane and north of R-112 in Tooele, Utah (the "Property").
RG IV has recently entered into a purchase and sale agreement with the current owner Miller
Family Real Estate Group, LLC to acquire the undeveloped Property. The transaction is
scheduled to close in the next sixty days. In connection with the proposed acquisition, Bridger
seeks a comfort letter for the Property pursuant to Utah Code Ann. § 19-6-108.3.
As explained in the Request, the Property falls within the Groundwater Management
Area associated with the plume of dissolved trichloroethylene ("TCE") originating from unlined
chemical disposal pits on the Tooele Army Depot premises. In a parallel process, Bridger also is
requesting an enforceable written assurance letter from the Utah Division of Environmental
Response and Remediation ("DERR") pursuant to Utah Code Ann. § 19-6-326. We understand
that the DERR will not consider or issue an enforceable written assurance letter until the
DWMRC first issues a comfort letter to RG IV.
