Re: Commercial Street Site; Site No. GEAC0230 Periodic Review and Evaluation of Temporary Solutions

Dear Mr. Gorski:

GE 159 Plastics Avenue Pittsfield, MA 01201 USA

In 2009, the General Electric Company (GE) conducted remedial actions at the Commercial Street Site in Pittsfield, MA, which comprises 15 non-GE-owned properties in a largely commercial area. These remedial actions were conducted under the Administrative Consent Order (ACO) that GE executed with the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) in November 2000. They involved soil removal/replacement at 11 of the properties, with off-site disposal of the excavated soil. These actions were described in GE's Phase IV As-Built Construction and Final Inspection Report for the Commercial Street Site (Phase IV Final Report; October 2010), which was approved by DEP by letter dated June 22, 2011. As discussed in that report, following those remedial actions, three of the properties at this Site qualified for a Permanent Solution and a Class A-2 Response Action Outcome (RAO). At the 12 remaining properties, all of which are commercial properties, a Temporary Solution satisfying the requirements for a Class C-1 RAO was implemented, as described in the Phase IV Final Report. Those properties consist of nine tax parcels under common control- Parcels K10-11-7, Kl0-11-8, Kl0-11-9, K10-11-15, K1 0-11-16, K10-11-17, K10-11-19, K10-11-101, and K1 0-11-102- as well as Parcels K1 0-11-11, K10-11-13 (portion within Site), and K11-2-1. GE sent letters to the owners of these properties on August 6, 2009, notifying them of the implementation of a Temporary Solution at their properties.

As described in Section 6.2 of the approved Phase IV Final Report and in GE's August 6, 2009 letters to the property owners, the Temporary Solution implemented at each of these properties involves an agreement by GE to conduct further response actions at the property in the future under certain conditions involving a change in use or operations.1 Specifically, if (a) the property owner notifies GE that he/she intends to change the current use of the property to a less restrictive use or to make a modification or expansion of his/her current operations that would involve the excavation or disposition of contaminated soil, and the owner provides evidence that he/she obtained any necessary governmental approvals for that

1 It should be noted that the owner of Parcel KI0-11-15 has executed a limited Notice of Activity and Use Limitation (AUL) to address potential future indoor air exposures in the building on the property under a residential or similar scenario by prohibiting conversion of the property to residential or similar uses that are not consistent with the commercial use assumptions on which the prior indoor air risk assessment was based.

future use and has made a commitment to that use, or (b) GE otherwise obtains information from the owner or DEP or during periodic property inspections (described below) that uses or activities at the property have changed or will change in such a way that the property no longer meets applicable standards, then GE will so notify DEP. In such a case, assuming that the future use is legally permissible, GE will evaluate the need for and scope of additional investigations, additional cleanup, and/or soil management/disposition activities for that use, and will submit the results of that evaluation to DEP along with a proposal for such additional activities if necessary. If DEP then determines that such additional actions are necessary to meet applicable standards or requirements for the use in question, and if it directs GE to carry out such actions, GE will carry out those additional investigation, cleanup, and/or soil management/disposition actions (subject to its right to contest any requirement, or to seek contribution from others, for actions that relate to contaminants not attributable to GE).

The Phase IV Final Report also requires to GE to conduct annual post-remediation Temporary Solution inspections at the properties subject to the Temporary Solutions. Following GE's August 2009 notifications to the property owners, GE has conducted such annual inspection activities at these properties in accordance with the requirements described in that report. Those activities consisted of review of relevant property records and other documents and a visual on-site inspection, and were performed in the fall of2009, 2010,2011, 2012, and most recently on November 5, 2013. The purpose of those activities was to determine whether there had been a change in ownership of any of these properties/ and whether there was visual evidence that any of the following had occurred at any of the properties since the prior inspection: (a) any change in activities or uses of the property that would be potentially inconsistent with the land use for which the Temporary Solution was implemented (i.e., commercial use); (b) installation of a new utility or repair or replacement of an existing utility that involved disturbance of soil; or (c) any excavations, construction, or other activities or conditions that resulted in the disturbance of 10 cubic yards (cy) of soil or greater, regardless of depth. The results of each inspection were documented in a Temporary Solution Annual Inspection Checklist for each property and were presented in a letter report to DEP following the inspection. These reports were dated, respectively, December 15, 2009, December 14, 2010, December 16, 2011, January 2, 2013, and December 4, 2013.

The Phase IV Final Report provides further that, every five years, following the annual inspection in the fifth year, GE will submit a separate report to DEP evaluating the appropriateness of continuing the Temporary Solutions and addressing the other specific requirements of 310 CMR 40.1051(3)(b) (establishing requirements for periodic review of Temporary Solutions). Having completed the fifth annual inspection of the Temporary Solution properties at this Site, GE is submitting this letter to present the first such periodic evaluation. Each of the relevant criteria set out in 310 CMR 40.1051(3)(b) is addressed below. Copies of the completed RAO Statement Transmittal Forms (Form BWSC104) for these periodic reviews for the 12 parcels subject to Temporary Solutions at this Site are attached hereto as Attachments A through L.

2 These inspections showed no change in ownership of any of these properties since the Temporary Solutions were implemented, with the exception that, in December 2009, ownership of Parcel K 10-11-8 was transferred from one entity to another controlled by the same individual. In this situation, GE did not send a new notice of the Temporary Solution to the new owner.

1. Feasibility of implementing a Permanent Solution. Section 40.1051 (3)(b) 1 requires the evaluation to address "the feasibility of implementing one or more Permanent Solutions for the disposal site .... " As discussed in Section 8.2 of the Phase IV Final Report, GE previously concluded that, for the 12 properties subject to Temporary Solutions at this Site, a Permanent Solution is not feasible under the benefit-cost standard in 310 CMR 40.0860(5)(b) and 40.0860(7)(a). Specifically, as that report noted, GE showed that attempting to achieve a Permanent Solution (Class A-2 RAO) would have required the additional removal of a total of over 35,000 cy of soil beyond what was proposed (and ultimately performed) for those properties, at an estimated additional cost of over $14 million. The extra cost of such actions would have been substantial compared to the cost of the Temporary Solutions, and that extra cost would have been unjustified and disproportionate to the benefits, because such removal was not necessary to protect human health and the environment. As further explained in that report, the Temporary Solutions are already fully protective of health and the environment because (a) the remedial actions performed at these properties achieved the remediation standards approved by DEP as protective for their current use (commercial use), and (b) the Temporary Solutions would require implementation of further response actions to address potential changes in uses or other activities for which these standards may not be protective, so long as the specified conditions are met.

Nothing has occurred since the time of that evaluation that would change the conclusion that implementation of a Permanent Solution is not feasible at these properties.

2. Effectiveness of the Temporary Solution. Section 40.1 051(3)(b )2 requires the evaluation to address "the effectiveness of the Temporary Solution(s)." As demonstrated in Section 8.2 ofthe Phase N Final Report, the Temporary Solutions implemented at these properties were determined to be effective and to achieve a condition of No Substantial Hazard, because, as mentioned above, the remedial actions achieved the remediation standards approved by DEP as fully protective for the current uses of these properties, and the Temporary Solutions are in place to address any potential changes in use or other activities that may require further response actions.

Those conclusions remain true. The conclusion that the remedial actions achieved protective conditions for current uses was based on: (a) attainment of the PCB concentration standards approved by DEP for commercial properties at this Site, and (b) for other constituents, a demonstration that the average concentrations of the constituents that were retained after a screening comparison either (i) were less than the applicable Method 1 (S-2) soil standards under pre- or post-remediation conditions (seven properties)/ or (ii) would not present cancer risks or non-cancer hazards in excess of the MCP risk benchmarks, based on a Method 3 risk assessment under a commercial use scenario (five properties). Nothing has changed that would alter conclusions (a) or (b)(ii). With respect to conclusion (b)(i), DEP adopted revised Method 1 soil standards following the non-PCB evaluations conducted for this Site, which were set forth in the Phase III Remedial Action Plan (March 2007). However, for each of the properties to which the Method 1 standards were applied (Parcels K10-11-8, K10-11-13, K10-11-16, K10-11-19, K10-11-101, K10-11-102, and K10-2-1), review of those non-PCB evaluations in relation to the current Method 1 soil standards shows that, for all retained constituents, the current Method 1 S-2 soil standards are the same as or higher than the standards used in those prior evaluations, with three exceptions (acenaphthalene, acetone, and 2-methylnapththalene), for which the current standards are lower. However, for those three constituents, the average concentrations at the properties where they were retained are still well below the current Method 1 S-2 soil standards. Thus, the prior conclusion based on application of the Method 1 soil standards also remains valid.

3 In a couple of cases, with DEP approval, in lieu of using the MCP Method I soil standard for dioxin/furan total toxicity equivalency quotient (TEQ) concentrations, this analysis showed that the maximum TEQ concentration was below the applicable risk-based concentration developed by DEP for TEQs in soil at commercial properties.

3. Steps to identify and implement a feasible Permanent Solution. Section 40.1051 (3)(b )3 requires the evaluation to address "the definitive and/or enterprising steps to identify, develop, and implement a feasible permanent solution at the site." As provided in Section 8.2 of the Phase IV Final Report, this requirement is met by the steps that GE is required to conduct in the event of a change in use at these properties or the performance of certain activities involving the excavation or disposition of contaminated soil, as described in the second paragraph of this letter.

4. Changes in activities, uses, and/or exposures. Section 40.1051(3)(b)4 requires the evaluation to address "any changes in activities, uses and/or exposures that may cause an actual or potential increase in exposure for human or environmental receptors to oil and/or hazardous material." As stated in the above­referenced reports on the annual Temporary Solution inspections conducted from 2009 to date, those inspections showed no evidence of any changes in activities or uses at any of these properties that would be potentially inconsistent with the land use for which the Temporary Solutions were implemented (i.e., commercial use). Those inspections did show that a few construction activities had been performed -namely, the construction of a drive-up teller window at Parcel K11-2-1 in 2011; the installation of a fence and gate at Parcel K10-11-15 in 2012 and another fence and gate at that parcel in 2013; and the repair of a telephone line between Parcels K10-11-15 and K10-11-16 (which are commonly owned) in 2013, resulting in a cut in the asphalt between the buildings on those parcels and toward Commercial Street. The first three of those projects did not appear to have involved the disturbance of 10 cy or more of soil. The 2013 telephone line repair did appear to have involved the disturbance of more than 10 cy of soil, but it appeared that the soil removed was put back in place and new asphalt installed. These activities would not be expected to have resulted in an "actual or potential increase in exposure for human or environmental receptors" to constituents in the soil; and the inspections showed no other evidence of the above-mentioned activities or conditions listed in the Annual Inspection Checklist.

5. Evaluation of Activity and Use Limitation. Section 40.1051(3)(b)5 requires the evaluation to include, "if applicable, an evaluation of any Activity and Use Limitation [AUL] implemented as part of the Temporary Solution." This criterion is not applicable because AULs were not required and have not been implemented at these properties as part of the Temporary Solutions.4

6. Response actions to maintain the Temporary Solution. Section 40.1051(3)(b)6 requires the evaluation to address "any necessary and required response actions to maintain the Temporary Solution and, if applicable, any Activity and Use Limitation, in the event that the Temporary Solution and/or the Activity and Use Limitation is no longer effective in maintaining a condition of No Substantial Hazard at the disposal site." This criterion is also inapplicable here because, as shown above, the Temporary Solutions are effective in maintaining a condition of No Substantial Hazard and do not include AULs. We note further that, as part of the Temporary Solutions, GE has agreed to conduct any necessary and required response actions in the event of a change in use at these properties or the performance of certain activities involving the excavation or disposition of contaminated soil, provided that the conditions described above are satisfied.

7. Certification. Section 40.1051 (3)(b )7 requires the evaluation to include "the certification required in 310 CMR 40.0009." The required certifications by a Licensed Site Professional (LSP) are provided in Section K of the RAO Statement Transmittal Forms attached as Attachments A through L.

4 As noted above (footnote 1), a limited AUL has been executed at Parcel Kl0-11-15 to address potential future indoor air exposures in the building on that property under a residential or similar scenario. However, that AUL was separate from the Temporary Solution.

Based on the forgoing evaluation, GE has concluded that it is appropriate to continue the Temporary Solutions at the above-referenced properties. These properties will continue to be inspected annually; and following each inspection, an inspection report will be prepared and submitted to DEP. In addition, GE will submit another separate report to DEP in 5 years time (following the annual inspection in 2018) evaluating the appropriateness of continuing the Temporary Solutions at these properties and addressing the other requirements of 310 CMR 40.1 051(3)(b) (or any revised version of that provision).

Please call me if you have any comments or questions.

Sincerely yours,

ATTACHMENT TO FORM BWSC104 FOR PARCEL Kl0-11-7, PITTSFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS

E.8. The Class C-1 Response Action Outcome (RAO) was for a Temporary Solution implemented at this property, as described in Section 6.2 ofGE's Phase IV As-Built Construction and Final Inspection Report for the Commercial Street Site (Phase IV Final Report; October 201 0).

J.l. The periodic review of the Temporary Solution at Parcel K10-11-7 was subject to: (1) an Administrative Consent Order (ACO) executed by the General Electric Company (GE) and the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MDEP) in 2000 pertaining to GE's Pittsfield Facility and related sites (GEAC0500; SA 1-0563); and (2) an approval letter issued by the MDEP on June 22, 2011 forGE's Phase IV Final Report (October 2010).

J.4. The location of Parcel K1 0-11-7, which is a part of Disposal Site No. GEAC0230 (Pittsfield Non­Residential Fill Properties), is shown on Figures 1 and 2 of the Phase IV Final Report. Since the entire Disposal Site of which this property is a part consists of all non-residential properties within Pittsfield at which fill material from the GE Pittsfield facility may have come to be located, the location and boundaries of that entire Disposal Site cannot be defined.

J.5. For the same reason given in Item J.4 above (i.e., that the Disposal Site of which the subject areas are a part consists of all non-residential properties in Pittsfield at which fill material from the GE Pittsfield facility may have come to be located), notice cannot feasibly be provided to the owners of all properties within that Disposal Site. However, notice of the periodic Temporary Solution review has been provided to the owner of Parcel K10-11-7.

J.9. The material facts, data, and other information relating to the periodic review and evaluation of the Temporary Solution at Parcel K 10-11-7 are set forth in the letter from GE to MDEP dated December 23, 2013, to which this Form BWSC104 is attached and which is incorporated by reference herein. The LSP Opinion provided in Section G of this Form BWSC104 is based upon and incorporates that information.

ATTACHMENT TO FORM BWSC104 FOR PARCEL Kl0-11-8, PITTSFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS

E.8. The Class C-1 Response Action Outcome (RAO) was for a Temporary Solution implemented at this property, as described in Section 6.2 of GE's Phase IV As-Built Construction and Final Inspection Report for the Commercial Street Site (Phase IV Final Report; October 201 0).

J.1. The periodic review of the Temporary Solution at Parcel KI0-11-8 was subject to: (1) an Administrative Consent Order (ACO) executed by the General Electric Company (GE) and the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MDEP) in 2000 pertaining to GE's Pittsfield Facility and related sites (GEAC0500; SA 1-0563); and (2) an approval letter issued by the MDEP on June 22, 2011 forGE's Phase IV Final Report (October 2010).

1.4. The location of Parcel Kl 0-11-8, which is a part of Disposal Site No. GEAC0230 (Pittsfield Non­Residential Fill Properties), is shown on Figures 1 and 2 of the Phase IV Final Report. Since the entire Disposal Site of which this property is a part consists of all non-residential properties within Pittsfield at which fill material from the GE Pittsfield facility may have come to be located, the location and boundaries of that entire Disposal Site cannot be defined.

1.5. For the same reason given in Item J.4 above (i.e., that the Disposal Site of which the subject areas are a part consists of all non-residential properties in Pittsfield at which fill material from the GE Pittsfield facility may have come to be located), notice cannot feasibly be provided to the owners of all properties within that Disposal Site. However, notice of the periodic Temporary Solution review has been provided to the owner ofParcel K10-11-8.

J.9. The material facts, data, and other information relating to the periodic review and evaluation of the Temporary Solution at Parcel K10-11-8 are set forth in the letter from GE to MDEP dated December 23, 2013, to which this Form BWSC104 is attached and which is incorporated by reference herein. The LSP Opinion provided in Section G ofthis Form BWSC104 is based upon and incorporates that information.

E.8. The Class C-I Response Action Outcome (RAO) was for a Temporary Solution implemented at this property, as described in Section 6.2 ofGE's Phase IV As-Built Construction and Final Inspection Report for the Commercial Street Site (Phase IV Final Report; October 20 I 0).

J.I. The periodic review of the Temporary Solution at Parcel KI 0-II-9 was subject to: (I) an Administrative Consent Order (ACO) executed by the General Electric Company (GE) and the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MDEP) in 2000 pertaining to GE's Pittsfield Facility and related sites (GEAC0500; SA I-0563); and (2) an approval letter issued by the MDEP on June 22, 20II forGE's Phase IV Final Report (October 2010).

J.4. The location of Parcel K 1 0-1I-9, which is a part of Disposal Site No. GEAC0230 (Pittsfield Non­Residential Fill Properties), is shown on Figures I and 2 of the Phase IV Final Report. Since the entire Disposal Site of which this property is a part consists of all non-residential properties within Pittsfield at which fill material from the GE Pittsfield facility may have come to be located, the location and boundaries of that entire Disposal Site cannot be defined.

For the same reason given in Item J.4 above (i.e., that the Disposal Site of which the subject areas are a part consists of all non-residential properties in Pittsfield at which fill material from the GE Pittsfield facility may have come to be located), notice cannot feasibly be provided to the owners of all properties within that Disposal Site. However, notice of the periodic Temporary Solution review has been provided to the owner of Parcel KI0-11-9.

J.9. The material facts, data, and other information relating to the periodic review and evaluation of the Temporary Solution at Parcel K I 0-II-9 are set forth in the letter from GE to MDEP dated December 23, 2013, to which this Form BWSCI04 is attached and which is incorporated by reference herein.

ATTACHMENT TO FORM BWSC104 FOR PARCEL Kl0-11-15, PITTSFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS

E.8. The Class C-1 Response Action Outcome (RAO) was for a Temporary Solution implemented at this property, as described in Section 6.2 ofGE's Phase IV As-Built Construction and Final Inspection Report for the Commercial Street Site (Phase IV Final Report; October 20 I 0).

J.l. The periodic review ofthe Temporary Solution at Parcel KIO-II-I5 was subject to: (1) an Administrative Consent Order (ACO) executed by the General Electric Company (GE) and the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MDEP) in 2000 pertaining to GE's Pittsfield Facility and related sites (GEAC0500; SA 1-0563); and (2) an approval letter issued by the MDEP on June 22, 2011 forGE's Phase IV Final Report (October 20IO).

J.4. The location of Parcel K1 0-11-15, which is a part of Disposal Site No. GEAC0230 (Pittsfield Non­Residential Fill Properties), is shown on Figures I and 2 of the Phase IV Final Report. Since the entire Disposal Site of which this property is a part consists of all non-residential properties within Pittsfield at which fill material from the GE Pittsfield facility may have come to be located, the location and boundaries of that entire Disposal Site cannot be defined.

J.5. For the same reason given in Item J.4 above (i.e., that the Disposal Site of which the subject areas are a part consists of all non-residential properties in Pittsfield at which fill material from the GE Pittsfield facility may have come to be located), notice cannot feasibly be provided to the owners of all properties within that Disposal Site. However, notice of the periodic Temporary Solution review has been provided to the owner of Parcel KIO-II-15.

J.9. The material facts, data, and other information relating to the periodic review and evaluation of the Temporary Solution at Parcel K 10-11-15 are set forth in the letter from GE to MDEP dated December 23, 2013, to which this Form BWSC104 is attached and which is incorporated by reference herein.

ATTACHMENT TO FORM BWSC104 FOR PARCEL Kl0-11-16, PITTSFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS

E.8. The Class C-1 Response Action Outcome (RAO) was for a Temporary Solution implemented at this property, as described in Section 6.2 ofGE's Phase IV As-Built Construction and Final Inspection Report for the Commercial Street Site (Phase IV Final Report; October 20 I 0).

J.l. The periodic review of the Temporary Solution at Parcel K 10-11-16 was subject to: (I) an Administrative Consent Order (ACO) executed by the General Electric Company (GE) and the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MDEP) in 2000 pertaining to GE's Pittsfield Facility and related sites (GEAC0500; SA 1-0563); and (2) an approval letter issued by the MDEP on June 22, 2011 forGE's Phase IV Final Report (October 2010).

J.4. The location of Parcel KIO-ll-16, which is a part of Disposal Site No. GEAC0230 (Pittsfield Non­Residential Fill Properties), is shown on Figures 1 and 2 of the Phase IV Final Report. Since the entire Disposal Site of which this property is a part consists of all non-residential properties within Pittsfield at which fill material from the GE Pittsfield facility may have come to be located, the location and boundaries of that entire Disposal Site cannot be defined.

J.5. For the same reason given in Item J.4 above (i.e., that the Disposal Site of which the subject areas are a part consists of all non-residential properties in Pittsfield at which fill material from the GE Pittsfield facility may have come to be located), notice cannot feasibly be provided to the owners of all properties within that Disposal Site. However, notice of the periodic Temporary Solution review has been provided to the owner of Parcel KI0-11-16.

J.9. The material facts, data, and other information relating to the periodic review and evaluation of the Temporary Solution at Parcel K 10-11-16 are set forth in the letter from GE to MDEP dated December 23, 2013, to which this Form BWSC104 is attached and which is incorporated by reference herein. The LSP Opinion provided in Section G of this Form BWSC104 is based upon and incorporates that information.

ATTACHMENT TO FORM BWSC104 FOR PARCEL Kl0-11-17, PITTSFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS

E.8. The Class C-1 Response Action Outcome (RAO) was for a Temporary Solution implemented at this property, as described in Section 6.2 ofGE's Phase IV As-Built Construction and Final Inspection Report for the Commercial Street Site (Phase IV Final Report; October 201 0).

1.1. The periodic review of the Temporary Solution at Parcel K1 0-11-17 was subject to: (1) an Administrative Consent Order (ACO) executed by the General Electric Company (GE) and the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MDEP) in 2000 pertaining to GE's Pittsfield Facility and related sites (GEAC0500; SA 1-0563); and (2) an approval letter issued by the MDEP on June 22, 2011 forGE's Phase IV Final Report (October 2010).

J.4. The location ofParcel K10-11-17, which is a part ofDisposal Site No. GEAC0230 (Pittsfield Non­Residential Fill Properties), is shown on Figures 1 and 2 ofthe Phase IV Final Report. Since the entire Disposal Site of which this property is a part consists of all non-residential properties within Pittsfield at which fill material from the GE Pittsfield facility may have come to be located, the location and boundaries of that entire Disposal Site cannot be defined.

J.5. For the same reason given in Item J.4 above (i.e., that the Disposal Site of which the subject areas are a part consists of all non-residential properties in Pittsfield at which fill material from the GE Pittsfield facility may have come to be located), notice cannot feasibly be provided to the owners of all properties within that Disposal Site. However, notice of the periodic Temporary Solution review has been provided to the owner of Parcel K1 0-11-17.

J.9. The material facts, data, and other information relating to the periodic review and evaluation of the Temporary Solution at Parcel K10-11-17 are set forth in the letter from GE to MDEP dated December 23, 2013, to which this Form BWSC104 is attached and which is incorporated by reference herein. The LSP Opinion provided in Section G ofthis Form BWSC104 is based upon and incorporates that information.

ATTACHMENT TO FORM BWSC104 FOR PARCEL Kl0-11-19, PITTSFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS

E.8. The Class C-1 Response Action Outcome (RAO) was for a Temporary Solution implemented at this property, as described in Section 6.2 of GE's Phase IV As-Built Construction and Final Inspection Report for the Commercial Street Site (Phase IV Final Report; October 2010).

J.1. The periodic review of the Temporary Solution at Parcel K10-11-19 was subject to: (1) an Administrative Consent Order (ACO) executed by the General Electric Company (GE) and the Massachusetts Department ofEnvironmenta1 Protection (MDEP) in 2000 pertaining to GE's Pittsfield Facility and related sites (GEAC0500; SA 1-0563); and (2) an approval letter issued by the MDEP on June 22, 2011 forGE's Phase IV Final Report (October 2010).

J.4. The location of Parcel KI0-11-19, which is a part of Disposal Site No. GEAC0230 (Pittsfield Non­Residential Fill Properties), is shown on Figures I and 2 of the Phase IV Final Report. Since the entire Disposal Site of which this property is a part consists of all non-residential properties within Pittsfield at which fill material from the GE Pittsfield facility may have come to be located, the location and boundaries of that entire Disposal Site cannot be defined.

J.5. For the same reason given in Item J.4 above (i.e., that the Disposal Site of which the subject areas are a part consists of all non-residential properties in Pittsfield at which fill material from the GE Pittsfield facility may have come to be located), notice cannot feasibly be provided to the owners of all properties within that Disposal Site. However, notice of the periodic Temporary Solution review has been provided to the owner ofParcel KI0-11-19.

J.9. The material facts, data, and other information relating to the periodic review and evaluation of the Temporary Solution at Parcel K I 0-11-19 are set forth in the letter from GE to MDEP dated December 23, 2013, to which this Form BWSC104 is attached and which is incorporated by reference herein. The LSP Opinion provided in Section G ofthis Form BWSC104 is based upon and incorporates that information.

ATTACHMENT TO FORM BWSC104 FOR PARCEL K1 0-11-102, PITTSFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS

E.8. The Class C-1 Response Action Outcome (RAO) was for a Temporary Solution implemented at this property, as described in Section 6.2 ofGE's Phase IV As-Built Construction and Final Inspection Report for the Commercial Street Site (Phase IV Final Report; October 20 I 0).

J.l. The periodic review of the Temporary Solution at Parcel KI0-11-102 was subject to: (1) an Administrative Consent Order (ACO) executed by the General Electric Company (GE) and the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MDEP) in 2000 pertaining to GE's Pittsfield Facility and related sites (GEAC0500; SA 1-0563); and (2) an approval letter issued by the MDEP on June 22, 2011 forGE's Phase IV Final Report (October 2010).

1.4. The location ofParcel Kl0-11-102, which is a part ofDisposal Site No. GEAC0230 (Pittsfield Non-Residential Fill Properties), is shown on Figures 1 and 2 of the Phase IV Final Report. Since the entire Disposal Site of which this property is a part consists of all non-residential properties within Pittsfield at which fill material from the GE Pittsfield facility may have come to be located, the location and boundaries of that entire Disposal Site cannot be defined.

1.5. For the same reason given in Item 1.4 above (i.e., that the Disposal Site of which the subject areas are a part consists of all non-residential properties in Pittsfield at which fill material from the GE Pittsfield facility may have come to be located), notice cannot feasibly be provided to the owners of all properties within that Disposal Site. However, notice of the periodic Temporary Solution review has been provided to the owner of Parcel K1 0-11-102.

1.9. The material facts, data, and other information relating to the periodic review and evaluation of the Temporary Solution at Parcel K 10-11-102 are set forth in the letter from GE to MDEP dated December 23, 2013, to which this Form BWSCI04 is attached and which is incorporated by reference herein. The LSP Opinion provided in Section G of this Form BWSC104 is based upon and incorporates that information.

ATTACHMENT TO FORM BWSC104 FOR PARCEL Kl0-11-11, PITTSFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS

E.8. The Class C-1 Response Action Outcome (RAO) was for a Temporary Solution implemented at this property, as described in Section 6.2 of GE's Phase IV As-Built Construction and Final Inspection Report for the Commercial Street Site (Phase IV Final Report; October 2010).

J.l. The periodic review of the Temporary Solution at Parcel K10-11-11 was subject to: (1) an Administrative Consent Order (ACO) executed by the General Electric Company (GE) and the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MDEP) in 2000 pertaining to GE's Pittsfield Facility and related sites (GEAC0500; SA 1-0563); and (2) an approval letter issued by the MDEP on June 22, 2011 forGE's Phase IV Final Report (October 2010).

J.4. The location of Parcel K 10-11-11, which is a part of Disposal Site No. GEAC0230 (Pittsfield Non­Residential Fill Properties), is shown on Figures 1 and 2 of the Phase IV Final Report. Since the entire Disposal Site of which this property is a part consists of all non-residential properties within Pittsfield at which fill material from the GE Pittsfield facility may have come to be located, the location and boundaries of that entire Disposal Site cannot be defined.

J.5. For the same reason given in Item J.4 above (i.e., that the Disposal Site of which the subject areas are a part consists of all non-residential properties in Pittsfield at which fill material from the GE Pittsfield facility may have come to be located), notice cannot feasibly be provided to the owners of all properties within that Disposal Site. However, notice of the periodic Temporary Solution review has been provided to the owner of Parcel KI0-11-11.

J.9. The material facts, data, and other information relating to the periodic review and evaluation of the Temporary Solution at Parcel K 10-11-11 are set forth in the letter from GE to MDEP dated December 23, 2013, to which this Form BWSC104 is attached and which is incorporated by reference herein. The LSP Opinion provided in Section G of this Form BWSC104 is based upon and incorporates that information.

ATTACHMENT TO FORM BWSC104 FOR PARCEL Kl0-11-13, PITTSFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS

E.8. The Class C-1 Response Action Outcome (RAO) was for a Temporary Solution implemented at this property, as described in Section 6.2 ofGE's Phase IV As-Built Construction and Final Inspection Report for the Commercial Street Site (Phase IV Final Report; October 201 0).

J.l. The periodic review of the Temporary Solution at Parcel K10-11-13 was subject to: (1) an Administrative Consent Order (ACO) executed by the General Electric Company (GE) and the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MDEP) in 2000 pertaining to GE's Pittsfield Facility and related sites (GEAC0500; SA 1-0563); and (2) an approval letter issued by the MDEP on June 22, 2011 forGE's Phase IV Final Report (October 2010).

1.4. The location of Parcel Kl0-11-13, which is a part of Disposal Site No. GEAC0230 (Pittsfield Non­Residential Fill Properties), is shown on Figures 1 and 2 of the Phase IV Final Report.

1.5. For the same reason given in Item J.4 above (i.e., that the Disposal Site of which the subject areas are a part consists of all non-residential properties in Pittsfield at which fill material from the GE Pittsfield facility may have come to be located), notice cannot feasibly be provided to the owners of all properties within that Disposal Site. However, notice of the periodic Temporary Solution review has been provided to the owner ofParcel K10-11-13.

1.9. The material facts, data, and other information relating to the periodic review and evaluation of the Temporary Solution at Parcel K10-11-13 are set forth in the letter from GE to MDEP dated December 23,2013, to which this Form BWSC104 is attached and which is incorporated by reference herein.

E.8. The Class C-1 Response Action Outcome (RAO) was for a Temporary Solution implemented at this property, as described in Section 6.2 ofGE's Phase IV As-Built Construction and Final Inspection Report for the Commercial Street Site (Phase IV Final Report; October 201 0).

J.l. The periodic review ofthe Temporary Solution at Parcel K11-2-I was subject to: (1) an Administrative Consent Order (ACO) executed by the General Electric Company (GE) and the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MDEP) in 2000 pertaining to GE's Pittsfield Facility and related sites (GEAC0500; SA l-0563); and (2) an approval letter issued by the MDEP on June 22, 201 I forGE's Phase IV Final Report (October 2010).

1.4. The location of Parcel K 11-2-1, which is a part of Disposal Site No. GEAC0230 (Pittsfield Non­Residential Fill Properties), is shown on Figures I and 2 of the Phase IV Final Report. Since the entire Disposal Site of which this property is a part consists of all non-residential properties within Pittsfield at which fill material from the GE Pittsfield facility may have come to be located, the location and boundaries of that entire Disposal Site cannot be defined.

1.5.
