Tacoma Smelter Plume Model Remedies Guidance,
dated July 2019
Dear Mr. Sekhon:
This letter presents the results of the Limited Phase II Environmental Site Assessment (ESA)
performed by Earth Solutions NW, LLC (ESNW) at the above-referenced South 288th Street Short
Plat property (subject site) at the request of American Pride Lending, LLC (Client). The Limited
Phase II ESA soil sampling activities were performed at the subject site to assess potential
shallow soil contamination associated with airborne arsenic and lead fallout from the historical
Asarco Smelter, formerly located in Tacoma, Washington (area referred to as the Tacoma
Smelter Plume). It should be noted that Tacoma Smelter Plume (TSP) characterization soil
sampling completed during this investigation was completed in accordance with the referenced
Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology) TSP Model Remedies Guidance document
for sampling and cleanup of arsenic and lead contaminated soils (dated July 2019).
Based on the analytical laboratory results of this Limited Phase II ESA, no concentrations of lead
in site soil exceed the Model Toxics Control Act (MTCA) Method A lead soil cleanup level for
unrestricted land-use (CUL) of 250 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg). Additionally, average
concentrations of arsenic in site soil are below the MTCA Method A arsenic soil CUL of 20 mg/kg,
with no single soil sample containing concentrations of arsenic at or greater than double the
MTCA Method A arsenic soil CUL (40 mg/kg).

Therefore, according to Ecology’s TSP Model Remedies Guidance (July 2019), shallow soil at
the subject site does not require remediation in connection with arsenic or lead impacts.
Based on the findings of this Limited Phase II ESA, no further environmental investigation in
connection with the TSP is considered warranted at this time.
The body of this letter should be referenced for further details regarding the field activities and
findings of this Limited Phase II ESA.
Site Description
The subject site is located at 2240 South 288th Street, in Federal Way, Washington (see Plate 1
– Vicinity Map). The site consists of one tax parcel (King County Parcel No. 332204-9023),
comprising a total of approximately 0.9 acres of land area. The site is currently undeveloped and
lightly to moderately overgrown with grass, brambles, and scattered trees.
The subject site was determined to be located within an area designated by Ecology to have
average concentrations of arsenic in soil ranging from 20 mg/kg to 40 mg/kg, exceeding the
MTCA Method A arsenic CUL for soil (20 mg/kg).
Decision Units
A “Decision Unit” is an “Area of a property expected to have a different pattern of soil
contamination than other areas. Some properties will only have one decision unit. Factors
include current and past land uses and development history…[and]…Future use can also define
decision units” (page 11 of Ecology’s TSP Model Remedies Guidance document). Based on the
understanding that the subject site will be redeveloped for residential land-use, the entire subject
site was treated as one Decision Unit for the purposes of this TSP characterization shallow soil
sampling assessment.
See Plate 2 to reference site dimensions and the existing site conditions.
Based on Table 1 (page 13) and Table 1a (page 16) of the referenced TSP Model Remedies
Guidance, ESNW calculated the minimum number of soil samples that would need to be collected
in accordance with the TSP Model Remedies Guidance. See attached “Form 1 –
Characterization Sampling” for reference, with calculations on page three of the form. At a
minimum, the following number of soil samples needed to be collected across the subject site:
16 soil samples at a depth of zero to six inches into native soil, four soil samples at a depth of 6
to 12 inches into native soil, and four forest duff composite samples
See below for discussion of on-site soil sampling activities.

Field Activities
Field activities involved with completing this Limited Phase II ESA were performed on April 14,
2022.
ESNW used site plans to identify evenly spaced and accurately plotted sampling locations in an
approximate grid pattern throughout the property. As discussed in the previous section of this
letter, 16 discrete soil samples were collected at a depth of zero to six inches bgs. Four soil
samples were collected from depths of 6 to 12 inches bgs. Additionally, four forest duff composite
samples (each consisting of six evenly spaced forest duff subsamples) were also collected across
the subject site. A handheld post-hole digger was used to manually collect each soil and/or forest
duff composite sample. See Plate 3 to review sampling locations.
Soil conditions were observed to be dry during soil sampling. No wetland areas, standing bodies
of water, or steep slopes were observed by ESNW during Limited Phase II ESA soil sampling
activities.
Soil Sampling Methods
Each soil sample was carefully transferred from the post-hole digger into a stainless-steel bowl
before being transferred to a pre-cleaned 8-oz glass sampling jar and sealed with a Teflon-lined
plastic lid. All tools and equipment used during soil sampling activities were cleaned in separate
wash and rinse buckets prior to and between the collection of each soil sample. Additionally,
nitrile gloves were worn during sampling activities and replaced with a clean pair between
collection of each soil sample.
The jars containing the soil samples were labeled and stored on ice in a 5°C cooler, and delivered
to On-Site Environmental Laboratories, Inc. (a Washington State-certified laboratory), located in
Redmond, Washington, to be analyzed for the following constituents:
Total Arsenic by Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Analytical Method 6020B.
Total Lead by EPA Analytical Method 6020B.
Applicable Regulatory Standards – Soil
The rules that guide the cleanup process at sites within Washington State are incorporated into
MTCA, as administered by Ecology and defined in WAC 173-340. For this letter, average values
for total arsenic and lead concentrations (reported in the On-Site Environmental Laboratories,
Inc. analytical reports) were compared to MTCA Method A CULs for soil. The Method A CULs
are conservative and are for sites with relatively few hazardous substances, which may not be
appropriate for all sites. The regulations state that Method A should not be automatically used to
define cleanup levels that must be met for financial, real estate, insurance coverage, or similar
purposes. Additionally, test results above Method A cleanup levels do not necessarily mandate
a cleanup action for a site. The referenced TSP Model Remedies Guidance document uses
MTCA Method A CULs.
American Pride Lending, LLC ES-8485.01
May 16, 2022 Page 4
Earth Solutions NW, LLC
Copies of the laboratory analytical reports are attached to this letter. Applicable MTCA Method
A CULs used during this Limited Phase II ESA include the following:
The MTCA Method A arsenic CUL for soil is 20 mg/kg.
The MTCA Method A lead CUL for soil is 250 mg/kg.
It should be noted that, according to Ecology’s 2019 TSP Model Remedies Guidance, “elevated
concentrations” of arsenic and lead are defined as follows: average concentrations of total arsenic
in soil exceeding Ecology’s MTCA Method A arsenic CUL, 20 mg/kg; average concentrations of
total lead in soil exceeding the lead MTCA Method A CUL, 250 mg/kg; or any concentrations of
arsenic or lead exceeding double the above-identified MTCA Method A CULs.
Analytical Results
Arsenic
Analytical results indicate that the average concentrations of arsenic in site soil are as follows:
Depth of zero to six inches bgs: 12.1 mg/kg (below the MTCA Method A arsenic CUL of
20 mg/kg); and,
Depth of 6 to 12 inches bgs: 11 mg/kg (below the MTCA Method A arsenic CUL).
No single soil or composite duff sample contained concentrations at or exceeding double the
MTCA Method A arsenic CUL. In conclusion, no elevated concentrations of arsenic were
identified in site soil or forest duff.
Lead
Analytical results indicate that the average concentrations of lead in site soil are as follows:
Depth of zero to six inches bgs: 17 mg/kg (below the MTCA Method A lead CUL of 250
mg/kg); and,
Depth of 6 to 12 inches bgs: 5.7 mg/kg (below the MTCA Method A lead CUL);
No single soil or composite duff sample contained concentrations at or exceeding double the
MTCA Method A lead CUL. In conclusion, no elevated concentrations of lead were identified in
site soil or forest duff.
Laboratory analytical reports are attached to this letter for review. Also, see the attached “Form
2 – Characterization Sampling Results” document that separately summarizes the above-
discussed results as required in Ecology’s TSP Model Remedies Guidance document.

Summary and Conclusions
Consistent with the Client’s request, ESNW completed a Limited Phase II ESA at the subject site.
This investigation included: (1) collecting 24 discrete soil samples across the subject site in
accordance with the referenced TSP Model Remedies Guidance document (Ecology, July 2019);
(2) submitting the soil samples to a Washington State-certified laboratory to be analyzed for the
presence of total arsenic and lead; and (3) completion of this letter.
In conclusion, laboratory analytical results identified no elevated concentrations (as defined in
the “Applicable Regulatory Standards – Soil” section of this letter) of arsenic or lead in soil at the
subject site. Soil samples collected at the site and the results discussed and recorded in this
letter can be considered “compliance” samples. This letter presents evidence that the site has
not been impacted by elevated concentrations of arsenic or lead from the historical Asarco
Smelter.
Recommendations
Based on the findings of this assessment, no soil remediation is considered warranted at the
subject site in connection with potential arsenic and/or lead impacts from the historical Asarco
Smelter.
Limitations
The work described herein was performed upon request by the Client after discussions relating
to the potential for TSP-related arsenic and lead soil impacts at the subject property. The findings
and recommendations in this letter are made based upon the analytical results, field observations,
and our best professional judgement. It is possible that unforeseen events could occur that may
limit the effectiveness of the assessment. Although risk can never be eliminated, more detailed
and extensive sampling and testing would yield better management of site risks. Since such
extensive services involve greater expense, we ask our clients to participate in identifying the
level of service that will provide them with an acceptable level of risk. Please contact the
signatories of this letter if you would like to discuss this issue of risk further.
The scope of work on this project was presented in our March 10, 2022 Phase II Environmental
Site Assessment proposal (Proposal No. PES-8485.01) and subsequently approved by American
Pride Lending, LLC as our Client. Please be aware our scope of work was limited to those items
specifically identified in the proposal. Other activities not specifically included in the presented
scope of work (in the proposal, correspondence, or this letter) are excluded and should not be
considered part of our scope of services.
Land use, site conditions (both on-site and off-site), and other factors will change over time. Since
site activities and regulations beyond our control could change at any time after the completion
of this letter, our observations, findings, and opinions can be considered valid only as of the date
of the site visit (April 14, 2022).

4. On the next page, list the decision units on your property and their size in Table 1.
Use Table 2 to determine the number of samples needed for each decision unit.
Part 2: Soil sample depth in upland areas
5. Fill in Table 1 on the following page with the sample depths.
At every location:Take samples from the top 0-6 inches of soil, after
clearing away grass, leaves, gravel, or debris on the surface (Figure 3)
At every fourth location (25% of the samples):Also take a sample from
the 6-12 inch depth
If you are sampling in natural areas:Take soil samples from 0-6 inches
below ground surface (bgs), 6-12 inches bgs, 12-24 inches bgs, 24-36 inches
bgs from every location
Areas where fill dirt or topsoil was added in the past:At every fourth
location, take a sample from the top 0-6 inches of the original land surface, if
it is deeper than 12 inches
If using mixing as a remedy:At every fourth sample location, take a
sample from the depth you to which you will mix
For forest duff: Take six subsamples throughout the decision unit and
combine into one sample. If your decision unit is larger than 0.25 acres,

Characterization Sampling Results
Reminder: Keep a copy of the filled out forms to pass on to future property owners.
Filling in the sample inventory
List the samples by decision unit in the inventory on the back of this page. Enter the
depth of each sample. When sampling multiple depths at a single location, mark
each depth as a separate sample number.
Optional: If you have duff, remember to sample and analyze that separately from
the soil.
Next, fill in the date and time. Note any unusual observations (high soil disturbance,
heavy rain, etc.) in the “Comments” column.
Complete the rest of the columns when you get the sampling results.
Determining if arsenic or lead is elevated
1. Calculate average arsenic and lead levels for each sampling depth and each
decision unit and enter them on the inventory sheet. For each decision unit
circle the arsenic average that exceeds 20 ppm, or average lead that exceeds
250 ppm. For decision units in natural areas, calculate average arsenic and lead
for each sampling location in addition to calculating the averages for each
sampling depth.
2. Circle every value where maximum arsenic exceeds 40 ppm and where
maximum lead exceeds 500 ppm.
3. Attach a copy of your lab results and chain of custody.
4. For decision units with a circled value (maximum or average), note in the
“Comment” column that cleanup is needed for that entire decision unit. Turn to
Chapter 2 to review options for cleaning up those decision units.
If no decision units have elevated arsenic or lead, no cleanup is necessary.
Because no cleanup is being done, you do not need to take any compliance
samples. The characterization samples demonstrate that your soils meet state
standards. Treat these results as “compliance” sampling results and read
Chapter 7 for next steps.

Data Qualifiers and Abbreviations
A - Due to a high sample concentration, the amount spiked is insufficient for meaningful MS/MSD recovery data.
B - The analyte indicated was also found in the blank sample.
C - The duplicate RPD is outside control limits due to high result variability when analyte concentrations are
within five times the quantitation limit.
E - The value reported exceeds the quantitation range and is an estimate.
F - Surrogate recovery data is not available due to the high concentration of coeluting target compounds.
H - The analyte indicated is a common laboratory solvent and may have been introduced during sample
preparation, and be impacting the sample result.
I - Compound recovery is outside of the control limits.
J - The value reported was below the practical quantitation limit. The value is an estimate.
K - Sample duplicate RPD is outside control limits due to sample inhomogeneity. The sample was
re-extracted and re-analyzed with similar results.
L - The RPD is outside of the control limits.
M - Hydrocarbons in the gasoline range are impacting the diesel range result.
M1 - Hydrocarbons in the gasoline range (toluene-naphthalene) are present in the sample.
N - Hydrocarbons in the lube oil range are impacting the diesel range result.
N1 - Hydrocarbons in diesel range are impacting lube oil range results.
O - Hydrocarbons indicative of heavier fuels are present in the sample and are impacting the gasoline result.
P - The RPD of the detected concentrations between the two columns is greater than 40.
Q - Surrogate recovery is outside of the control limits.
S - Surrogate recovery data is not available due to the necessary dilution of the sample.
T - The sample chromatogram is not similar to a typical ____________.
U - The analyte was analyzed for, but was not detected above the reported sample quantitation limit.
U1 - The practical quantitation limit is elevated due to interferences present in the sample.
V - Matrix Spike/Matrix Spike Duplicate recoveries are outside control limits due to matrix effects.
W - Matrix Spike/Matrix Spike Duplicate RPD are outside control limits due to matrix effects.
X - Sample extract treated with a mercury cleanup procedure.
X1 - Sample extract treated with a sulfuric acid/silica gel cleanup procedure.
X2 - Sample extract treated with a silica gel cleanup procedure.
Y - The calibration verification for this analyte exceeded the 20% drift specified in methods 8260 & 8270, and
therefore the reported result should be considered an estimate. The overall performance of the calibration
verification standard met the acceptance criteria of the method.
Y1 - Negative effects of the matrix from this sample on the instrument caused values for this analyte in the bracketing
continuing calibration verification standard (CCVs) to be outside of 20% acceptance criteria. Because of this,
quantitation limits and sample concentrations should be considered estimates.
Z -
ND - Not Detected at PQL
PQL - Practical Quantitation Limit
RPD - Relative Percent Difference
