INTRODUCTION The site is the fueling location for vehicles and equipment at the Solitude Ski Resort. The fueling system consists of one 8,000-gallon underground storage tank (UST) containing diesel fuel, and a 2,000-gallon aboveground storage tank containing gasoline. There is one dispenser at the site. A site map is provided as Figure 1. Diesel fuel was observed leaking at the dispenser and was reported as a release to DERR on May 31, 2023. The objective of the corrective action is to excavate accessible contaminated soil and remove impacted groundwater from the excavation. SCOPE OF SERVICES Public Notice Solitude Mountain Ski Resort will post the public notice for their employees. No other properties would be directly affected by the corrective action. Excavation The proposed area of excavation is shown on Figure 1. The estimated area is based on results from the subsurface investigation. The depth of excavation is estimated to be eight to nine feet. The estimated volume of soil to be removed is approximately 270 cubic yards. The excavation area is shown on Figure 1. The dispenser will need to be removed and replaced. CAP, Solitude Mountain Ski Resort, Salt Lake City, UT, Facility #4001332, Release OHY Rockwell Solutions, Inc., 718 E. Bridger Lane, Elk Ridge, UT 84651 801-361-2930 rockwellutah@yahoo.com 2 Soil confirmation samples will be collected in the excavation in accordance with DERR guidelines. Soil samples will be collected from the bottom of the excavation and at the approximate depth of the groundwater table smear zone on the excavation walls, estimated to be between seven to eight feet below grade. Samples will be submitted to a Utah-certified laboratory for analysis of MTBE, benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylenes, and naphthalene (MBTEXN) and total petroleum hydrocarbons-gasoline range organics (TPH-GRO) using EPA Method 8260b, and TPH-diesel range organics (TPH-DRO) using EPA method 8015b. Soil Disposal Soil will be hauled to the ET Technologies soil disposal facility in Salt Lake City. Dewatering Groundwater in the excavation will be pumped out into a frac tank. The groundwater in the frac tank will be treated by air sparging using a large compressor. After laboratory analysis confirms that the frac tank water is less than ISLs, it will be discharged into the onsite sewer. Backfill Imported, clean, structural fill and roadbase will be placed back into the excavation. Reports A final excavation report will be prepared documenting excavation activities and analytical results. SCHEDULE Excavation, backfill, and groundwater treatment activities will last approximately one week.

Definitions “Contractor” means the person identified as such above. “Claimant” means the person identified as such above. “Executive Secretary” means the Executive Secretary of the Solid and Hazardous Waste Control Board (UST). “Fund” means the Petroleum Storage Tank Trust Fund. “Release” means the release identified above. “State” means the State of Utah including its agencies, officers, employees, volunteers and specifically, the Division of Environmental Response and Remediation, the Executive Secretary of the Solid and Hazardous Waste Control Board (UST) and the Petroleum Storage Tank Trust Fund. “Work Plan” means the work plan identified above. 1) The key personnel, for which qualifications are submitted under R311-207-3(c), are: David S. Hansen 2) The Claimant acknowledges that the Claimant is required to obtain a payment bond from the Contractor under section 14-2-1 of the Utah Code. If the Claimant fails to do so, the Claimant is liable to each person who performed labor or services or supplied equipment or materials (“Subcontractors”) in the event the Contractor does not pay the subcontractors, even if the Claimant has paid the Contractor. See Utah Code section 14-2-2. The Claimant acknowledges and agrees that the Fund will not reimburse the Claimant for such Subcontractors’ claims for payment against the Claimant if the Fund has already made payment to the Claimant or Contractor. The Claimant understands that the premium paid for a payment bond is reimbursable. Therefore, the Claimant: a. has required the Contractor to obtain 100 percent payment bond through a United States Treasury-listed bonding company, and attached a copy, or; b. requests that PST fund reimbursement checks be made jointly to the Claimant, the Contractor and to the Subcontractors designated by the Parties, but waives all claims and remedies against the State if the Fund checks are not made as described above, or; c. has obtained other equivalent assurance and waives all claims and remedies against the State if the equivalent assurance does not adequately protect the Claimant. The equivalent assurance is described as follows: Rockwell Solutions, Inc., Agreement for Professional Services Contract between Solitude Mountain Ski Resort and Rockwell Solutions, Inc.. 3) The Parties agree that the Contractor shall have no cause of action against the State for payment. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the State is not a party to any contract with the Claimant or the Contractor for reimbursement from the Fund in the execution of this Work Plan, except to the extent provided by a contract signed by the Executive Secretary. Instead, the Claimant’s reimbursement is governed by the Utah Underground Storage Tank Act and the Utah Underground Storage Tank Rules and the Contractor is entitled to reimbursement solely under the contract he has with the Claimant. 4) The Parties agree that they will use a subcontracting method consistent with the requirements of R311-207. 5) The Parties agree that as a condition of performing the work under the Work Plan, the Contractor shall carry the insurance specified in R311-207-3(c)(5). The Contractor represents that certificate of insurance documenting the required insurance is attached or that a current certificate is on file with the Executive Secretary and has been provided to the Claimant. The Parties assume the risk and responsibility of ensuring that the appropriate insurance coverage is in place.
