1 October 7, 20 Mr. William Brochu Sunoco, Inc. (R&M) PO Box 4209 Concord, NH RE: 3 rd Quarter 20 Report Water Supply Treatment System Operation & Maintenance Meadows Condominium Complex Route 35/Old Post Road, Cross River, NY Matrix Environmental Project #ALB9706 DUNS # NYSDEC Spill # & # Dear Mr. Brochu: The following report summarizes the history and the operation of the water supply wells (WS) at the Meadows Condominium Complex. It also summarizes the water treatment system operation and maintenance activities performed at that facility during July, August, and September 20. Historical and Current Use of Water Supply Wells There are a total of six water supply wells associated with the Meadows water supply system. The original three wells (WS, WS2, and WS3) were unable to meet the water supply volume requirements for the Meadows Condominium Complex due to well production issues. Consequently, WS4, WS5, and WS6 were installed to provide additional water to the complex. Due to age and lack of production, WS and WS3 were taken offline. Currently, water for the complex is being provided by WS2, WS4, and WS5. Use of WS6 is awaiting permit approval. To mitigate low MTBE impacts observed in WS2, the water pumped from that well is treated with a packed tower air stripper and two 000-pound carbon filters set in series. This treated water, along with water pumped from WS4 and WS5, is further treated with UV and chlorination for potable use by the Meadows Complex. Operations and Maintenance Activities Matrix personnel mobilized to the site on July 26, August 7, and September to perform routine system maintenance. System measurements were collected, the flow meter sensor was cleaned, the generator was tested, and the system components were inspected for wear. 3 rd Quarter 20 Water Treatment Approximately 388,000, 386,000 and 326,000 gallons of water were produced by WS2 and treated by the system during the months of July, August, and September, respectively. Water samples were collected from the air stripper influent, the air stripper effluent, the primary carbon vessel effluent, the secondary carbon vessel effluent, and the holding tank on September, 20. All samples were submitted to Lancaster Laboratories in Lancaster, Pennsylvania (NYSDOH

2 Meadows Condominium Complex 3 rd Quarter 20 Report Page 2 ELAP# 0670) for analysis using EPA Method Refer to the attached analytical reports for further details. The benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and total xylenes (BTEX) concentrations in all of the samples were below detectable limits (BDL). The MTBE concentrations in all of the samples were also BDL, except for those collected at the influent and at the air stripper effluent in June. Refer to the attached Tables for a summary of analytical data since Historical analytical data prior to that may be reviewed in the December 200 quarterly report. WS4 and WS5 have produced a combined 335,000, 48,000, and 278,000 gallons during July, August, and September, respectively. Water from these wells is not treated with the air stripper or carbon filters. Future Plans Once the permitting is completed for WS6, it will replace WS2 as a water supply well for the Meadows complex. When this occurs, the water supply for the Meadows will come exclusively from wells WS4, WS5, and WS6. Wells WS2 and WS3 will be redeveloped and then fitted with new pumps. Water pumped from those wells will be treated by the air stripper and carbon filters and then discharged into a storm drain. It is estimated that the permitting process will be complete mid-202. Please contact the undersigned at (58) should you have any questions regarding the information provided. Sincerely, Matrix Environmental Technologies Inc. Janet R. Tallman, P.E.

For aqueous liquids, ppm is usually taken to be equivalent to milligrams per liter (mg/l), because one liter of water has a weight very close to a kilogram. For gases or vapors, one ppm is equivalent to one microliter of gas per liter of gas. parts per billion Results printed under this heading have been adjusted for moisture content. This increases the analyte weight concentration to approximate the value present in a similar sample without moisture. All other results are reported on an as-received basis.
