Comments:

On February 8, 2012 a joint inspection was conducted this day at 215 Birchwood Ave. Cranford (Union County) NJ. I (Jim Scully) conducted this inspection

with Mr. Ron Wienckoski of DEP, Bureau of Site Remediation. The inspection conducted this day had dual purposes. One purpose was to ensure compliance

with the disruption approval that was issued to Cranford Development Associates LLC. The other purpose was to inspect and make a visual, clean filldetermination with regards to the excavated material that had received scree ning. As a result of the screening process, it was the intention of the developer

to re-use the screened material as clean fill and place it back into the excavated area on this site.

Based on the inspection conducted this day, with regards to the landfill disruption activities, there were no solid waste violations. Regarding the piles of

screened material, it was determined that the amount of solid waste materials observed throughout the piles, especially the plastic paper and wood,

exceeded the roughly 1% de minimis contamination level and therefore would not qualify as clean fill.

For a more detailed report, refer to the word document also attached in NJEMS for 2-8-12.

On August 16, 2012 a joint inspection was conducted at 215 Birchwood Ave. Cranford (Union County) NJ. I (Jim Scully) conducted this inspection with Mr.

Ron Wienckoski of DEP, Bureau of Site Remediation. The purpose of this inspection was to inspect and by a visual observation, make a clean fill

determination with regards to the excavated material that had received scree ning. As a result of the screening process, it was the intention of the developer

to re-use the screened material as clean fill and place it back into the excavated area on this site.

Based on the visual findings of this site visit it was determined that a significant amount of solid waste material, i.e. wood, plastics, paper, e tc, was removed

as result of the re -screening of the excavated material. Therefore, based upon the visual aspects of the screened soil, it would be suitable for the re-use as

back fill material onsite, while it is required that the solid waste material be removed and disposed of properly.

Solid waste violations were not observed during this inspection.

For more detailed info. please refer to the word document attached in NJEMS for this days inspection.
