Dear Mr. Perez:
Environmental & Construction Management Services, Inc. (ECMS) hereby issues this letter report
to CommTank, Inc. (CommTank) outlining the Licensed Site Professional (LSP) review of
closure activities for the underground storage tank (UST) at the above referenced Site.
Introduction
When any UST is permanently "closed" (removed or closed-in-place), Massachusetts law
requires that the presence of contamination in the environment be assessed. Specifically,
within 24 hours after the removal of the UST, measure for the presence of contamination at
locations where it is most likely to be present, as required by Massachusetts Fire Prevention
Regulations 527 CMR 9.07(K)(4)).
UST Removal Observations
On November 17, 2020, CommTank personnel uncovered a portion of soils surrounding a
partially buried 275-gallon capacity No. 2 fuel oil UST and removed the single-walled steel
UST from the subsurface. This tank was empty of any fuel oil and considered a UST since
more than 10% was buried beneath the surface. Refer to CommTank Tank Closure Report
and field notes attached as Appendix A.
After the removal of the UST, soils collected from the excavation were screened in the field by
CommTank personnel for total organic vapors (TOVs) using a RAE Systems MiniRae 2000
photoionization detector (PID). Prior to use, the PID was fully charged and calibrated to 100
parts per million (ppm) isobutylene standard. TOV concentrations ranged from 2.6 to 6.6
ppmv. No petroleum discoloration or obvious petroleum odors were noted or observed by

CommTank personnel during excavation. Refer to Appendix B Photographs for
photographs of the UST removal activities on November 17, 2020.
For documentation purposes, one (1) soil sample [designated as SW-1] was collected from
the area of highest TOV reading from beneath the UST at a depth of 2 foot below grade (bg)
by CommTank personnel for delivery under proper chain-of-custody (COC) to ChemServe
Environmental Analysts (ChemServe) of Milford, New Hampshire to be analyzed for
Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) Extractable Petroleum
Hydrocarbon (EPH) with target polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) compounds.
The results of the EPH fractions and PAH target compounds for post excavation soil sample
PB were all detected below their applicable RCS-1, specified in Massachusetts Oil and
Hazardous Materials List (MOHML) 310 CMR 40.1600 and 310 CMR 40.0300. Refer to
Table 1, Summary of Post Excavation Soil Sample Analytical Data for Extractable
Petroleum Hydrocarbons (EPH). A copy of the soil laboratory report is attached as
Appendix C.
In accordance with the MCP 310 CMR 40.0310, the observed conditions on November 17,
2020 did not meet the notification conditions for either a 2-hour or a 72-hour MADEP
notification under the MCP and based on the results of the laboratory analysis of soil did
not meet the notification condition(s) for a 120-day release notification.
This tank closure was performed in general accordance with the MassDEP preferred
method of documentation as outlined in accordance with Commonwealth of Massachusetts
Underground Storage Tank Closure Assessment Manual (MassDEP Policy #WSC-402-96) dated
April 9, 1996.
Conclusions and Recommendations
The sampling approach performed for the removal of this UST satisfies the requirement to
measure for contamination in accordance with Massachusetts Fire Prevention Regulations
527 CMR 9.07(K)(4). Based upon the observed conditions, there is no indication that a
release of oil has occurred in accordance with the MCP 310 CMR 40.0000 and
Massachusetts General Law Chapter 21 (MGL 21E).
Based on these observations, no further comprehensive response actions in accordance with
the requirements of the MCP are deemed necessary.
This work was undertaken in accordance with generally accepted consulting engineering
practices, and the opinion rendered herein is based upon professional expertise and experience.
No other warranty, expressed or implied, is made.

Dear J Dantona
Enclosed please find the laboratory results for the above referenced samples that were received by the
ChemServe sample custodian on the above referenced date. Any abnormalities to the samples upon
receipt would be noted on the enclosed chain of custody document. This report is not valid without a
completed chain of custody with the corresponding control number, attached.
All samples analyzed by ChemServe are subject to quality standards. These standards are as stringent or
more stringent than those established under NELAC, 40 CFR Part 136, state certification programs, and
corresponding methodologies. ChemServe has a written QA/QC Procedures Manual that outlines these
standards, and is available for your reference, upon request. Unless otherwise stated on the Chain of
Custody or within the report, all holding times, preservation techniques, container types, and analytical
methods are analogous with those outlined by NELAC. All units are based on “as received” weight unless
denoted “dry”.
Residual chlorine, sulfite and pH are intended to be performed as an immediate field analysis. Should any
of these analyses be performed in the lab instead of in the field it will result in those analyses being
performed out of holding time.
Acrolein and 2-chloroethylvinyl ether require an additional analysis with an un-preserved sample.
If unpreserved vials were not submitted for these compounds then acrolein and 2-CEVE are not reported
due to not meeting method requirements, but may be reported as estimated upon request for EPA 624.1 or
EPA 524.2.
I certify that I have reviewed the above referenced analytical data and state forms, and I have found this
report within compliance with the procedures outlined within NELAC. ChemServe’s
certified parameter list can be found at http://www.chemservelab.com/Laboratory-Information-and-
Documentation.aspx

QUALIFICATIONS/LIMITATIONS
Environmental & Construction Management Services, Inc. (ECMS) professional services have been
performed, our findings obtained, and our recommendations prepared in accordance with customary
principles and practices in the fields of environmental science and engineering. This warranty is in
lieu of all other warranties either expressed or implied. ECMS is not responsible for the independent
conclusions, opinions or recommendations made by others based on the records review, site
inspection, field exploration, and laboratory test data presented in this report.
Factual information regarding on-site business operations, conditions, and historical data provided
to ECMS is assumed to be correct and complete. ECMS assumes no responsibility for hidden or
latent conditions or misrepresentation by the property owner, its representatives, public information
officials or any authority consulted in connection with the compilation of this report.
The findings set forth in the attached Site assessment report are strictly limited in time and scope to
the date of the evaluation(s). The conclusions presented in the Report are based solely on the
services described therein, and not on scientific tasks or procedures beyond the scope of agreed upon
services or the time and budgeting restraints imposed by the client.
The purpose of this report was to assess the physical characteristics of the subject Site with respect to
the presence in the environment of hazardous material or oil. No specific attempt was made to
check on the compliance of present or past owners or operators or of the Site with Federal, State or
local laws and regulations, environmental, or otherwise.
Partial findings of this investigation are based on data provided by others. No warranty is expressed
or implied with the usage of such data. Much of the information provided in this report is based
upon personal interviews and research of all available documents, records and maps held by the
appropriate government and private agencies. This is subject to the limitations of historical
documentation, availability and accuracy of pertinent records, and the personal recollection of those
persons contacted by ECMS personnel. ECMS is not a professional title insurance firm and makes
no guarantee, explicit or implied that the listing, which was reviewed, represented a comprehensive
delineation of past Site ownership or tenancy for legal purposes.
Observations were made of the Site and of structures on the Site as indicated within the Report.
Where access to portions of the Site or to structures on the Site was unavailable or limited, ECMS is
unable to render an opinion as to the presence of hazardous material or oil, or to the presence if
indirect evidence relating to hazardous material or oil, in that portion of the Site or structure. In
addition, ECMS renders no opinion as to the presence of hazardous material or oil, where direct
observation of the interior walls, floor, or ceiling of a structure on a Site was obstructed by objects or
coverings on or over these surfaces.
The initial site investigation took into account the natural and man-made features of the Site,
including any unusual or suspect phenomenon. These factors combined with the Site's geology,
hydrology, topography, and past and present land uses served as a basis for choosing a methodology
and location for subsurface exploration as well as ground water and subsurface sampling, if done.
The subsurface data, if provided, is meant as a representative overview of the Site.

The conclusions and recommendations contained in this report may be based in part upon various
types of chemical data and are contingent upon their validity. As indicated within the Report, some
of these data are preliminary "screening" level data, and should be confirmed with quantitative
analyses if more specific information is necessary. It should be noted that variations in the types and
concentrations of contaminants and variations in their flow paths may occur due to seasonal water
table fluctuations, past disposal practices, the passage of time, and other factors. Should additional
data or variations of current data become available in the future, these data should be reviewed, and
the conclusions and recommendations presented herein modified accordingly.
Chemical analyses may have been performed for specific parameters during the course of this Site
assessment, as described in the text. However, it should be noted that additional chemical
constituents not searched for during the current study might be present in soil and/or ground water
at the Site.
