1 November 7, 2017 Mr. Brian Burkhart, P.E. Environmental Quality Director Chatham County 720 Renaissance Drive Pittsboro, North Carolina RE: Split Ash Sample s October 2017 Charah Brickhaven Facility Dear Mr. Burkhart: Smith Gardner, Inc. (S+G) is pleased to present the following results from the split ash sampling performed on October 18, 2017 by S+G personnel at the Charah Brickhaven Facility. A composite ash sample was collected in the appropriate container provided by Prism Laboratories, Inc. and shipped, under proper chain of custody (COC), to the lab, on ice. Samples collected by S+G personnel were sent to Prism Laboratories, Inc. 1 (NC Certification No. 402) for analysis. TCLP metals analysis was performed for 8 RCRA Metals (arsenic, barium, cadmium, chromium, lead, mercury, selenium and silver) as well as antimony, beryllium, boron, cobalt, copper, lithium, molybdenum, nickel, thallium, vanadium and zinc. The additional parameters were added due to their analysis in groundwater samples, to provide a direct comparison. s from the October event indicate copper and zinc were reported at detectable concentrations in the collected sample. The remaining analyzed parameters were reported at concentrations below the laboratory method detection limit (MDL). s are generally consistent with previous analytical results. The attached table presents the laboratory results since May Please contact us with comments or questions at (919) or by below. Sincerely, SMITH GARDNER, INC. Madeline German, P.G.
