SUBJECT: WORK PLAN FOR CATFISH CREEK SKEET SHOOTING RANGE LIMITED PHASE II

Former Polk Sporting Clays, The Florida Future Farmers of America Foundation, Inc.

4902 Firetower Rd, Haines City, FL 33844

Mr. Parker:

NorthStar Contracting Group, Inc. (NorthStar) is pleased to present this Work Plan (WP) to initiate a Phase II Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) to evaluate soil conditions at multiple shooting range stations at the Florida Future Farmers of American Foundation, Inc (FFFAF) property. FDEP is seeking to acquire the former shooting range as part of an addition to the Allen David Broussard Catfish Creek Preserve State Park. As part of the due diligence for the land acquisition, FDEP wants to assess the overall impact to the Site’s soil conditions due to potential metals impacts from clay shooting activities. The clay shooting range has been active since 2016. This Phase II ESA will assess shallow soil conditions for polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) and select metal impacts at multiple shooting stations at the Site.

Due to the site limitations (heavily wooded) and the variables associated with clay shooting ranges, this Phase II ESA will be limited to areas deemed the most impacted by shooting activities. Areas deemed most impacted will be determined based on a present evaluation of site conditions and shooting course layout. Additionally, a full range of analytical sampling procedures and assessment will not be implemented across the Site. The focus of this investigation is to identify likely impacted areas, determine if elevated metals and PAH impacts in those areas, and to evaluate remedial options, should they be needed. Representative samples of subsurface conditions were indicative of each discrete sampling location only. Therefore, it is possible for impacts to be present but remain undetected at any point between or adjacent to the sampling points targeted during this investigation.

Task 1: Field Work This task item includes the mobilization, assessing current site conditions at ~23 previously identified shooting stations within the clay shooting range as well as at the small arms/rifle range near Villa 10, setting up 10-feet by 10-feet sampling grids at each shooting station or backstop in areas most likely to be affected by spent shot, and screening each grid with a metal detector to verify the presence of any metallic substances. Grid locations that have elevated signs of metal via the detector will be further assessed utilizing an XRF gun to verify the presence of lead metal debris. Areas with indications of high lead debris will be marked out. Once these screening activities are completed, representative analytical soil samples will be collected one high and one low impacted location at each shooting station.

Mr. James Paker, LEP FDEP – Division of State Lands Catfish Creek Shooting Range Phase II ESA December 8, 2024, Rev 1

NorthStar Contracting Group, Inc.

www.northstar.com

Upon arrival, the assessment crew will survey each shooting station and determine the most likely area(s) impacted by clay shooting activities. Each identified impacted area will be gridded into 100 square foot sections using a 10-foot by 10-feet plastic square constructed onsite by the field crew. The corners of each 100-foot section will be marked with pin flags and geo-located with GPS technology. These sections will then be grossly screened with a metal detector to verify the presence of any metal debris within the shallow soils. Each sub-section that results in the high likelihood of metal debris from the gross screening will be further screened with the XRF gun to confirm the presence of lead.

Samples for XRF screening samples will be collected by hand digging to 6-inches within six areas of each subsection (four corners and two areas within the center), placing the collected soils into a glass bowl, compositing the soil, transferring the composited soil into a clear plastic bag, and then screening the soils with the XRF gun. These screening samples will be used to determine areas of “high” and “low” lead impacted subsections.

Two subsections from each shooting stations and the small arms/rifle backstop, representing high and low lead concentrations, will then be selected for the collection of analytical soil samples. These soil samples will be utilized to confirm the XRF readings, determine if residential soil cleanup target levels per Chapter 62-777, FAC, are exceeded, and to evaluate disposal options, if remediation is needed. The “high” and “low” analytical lab sample from each shooting station will be collected from six areas with the 10-ft by 10-ft area in a fashion similar to the XRF screening samples. The soil collected for analytical sampling will be placed into a glass bowl, composited, and then transferred into laboratory-provided containers. A minimum total of 46 analytical soils samples will be collected, assuming additional shooting stations are not identified during the assessment.

The analytical soil samples will be delivered to a certified laboratory for analyses of RCRA 8 Metals (arsenic, barium, cadmium, chromium, lead, mercury, selenium, and silver) via USEPA Method 6010 and 7471 and Polynuclear Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH) via USEPA Method 8270. Additionally, a separate sample will be collected and submitted for Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) RCRA 8 metals analyses to assess hazardous waste properties, potential impacts to groundwater, and to evaluate remediation options for future site development. All “high” analytical soil samples will be analyzed for TCLP, however the “low” analytical soil samples will be held pending the bulks metals sampling results and will only be analyzed for TCLP is deemed necessary after review of the bulk data. The cost for analyzing all soil samples for TCLP is included in this estimate.

An additional sample (16) have been included within the cost estimate if the field crew visually observes conditions that warrant additional investigation, such as additional shooting stations. Prior to collection of these additional samples, FDEP will be consulted.

It is anticipated that the execution of the fieldwork portion of this work scope will take three weeks to complete. If site conditions or weather impacts the field work, a change order may be necessary.

Generally, an XRF screening can be affected by the moisture content of the soils therefore, to ensure the best screening information, field work should be scheduled during an extended dry period and suspended during periods of precipitation.

Mr. James Paker, LEP FDEP – Division of State Lands Catfish Creek Shooting Range Phase II ESA December 8, 2024, Rev 1

Task 2: Reporting The costs under this task include production of a detailed Phase II ESA report for submission to FDEP. The reports will discuss the field investigation techniques and provide a summary of the collected data. The report will include detailed maps showing areas of investigation along with the screening and laboratory data. If the analytical data indicates lead or PAH impacts that may affect a residential population, additional assessment tasks, risk assessment options, and/or remedial options will be presented. The report will be signed and sealed by a Florida registered professional geologist or engineer.
