INTRODUCTION 1.1 Project It is understood that the Yeerongpilly Landing Site (the site) is proposed to be redeveloped. To support the site‟s redevelopment removal of the land from the Department of Environment and Resource Management‟s (DERM) Environmental Management Register (EMR) is required. The site is described as Lot 566 on SP214202 (681 Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly) and occupies an area of 14.6021ha. Re-titling of the site occurred on 1 December 2008 following soil remediation and construction of a road reserve (King Arthur Terrace and Mooney Street) transecting the site. The road reserve occupies an area of 2.025ha through the northern portion of the site. A locality plan and general site layout are presented in Drawing No. 1. 1.2 Background Information Butler Partners is aware of four historical contaminated land investigations that have been undertaken on all, or part of the site. These investigations have been undertaken at the site by Landfix Environmental Services (Landfix), GHD Pty Ltd (GHD), and Butler Partners Pty Ltd (Butler Partners), and are reported in the following documents: Landfix Contamination Assessment & Remediation Plan Animal Research Institute at Ortive Street Tennyson, Queensland October 2000 GHD Tennyson Power Station Redevelopment Department of Primary Industries Animal Research Institute Proposed Access Road Site Contamination Assessment April 2006 Butler Partners Soil Assessment (Gully Investigation) Tennyson DPIF and ARI Site 681 Fairfield Road, Tennyson 23 November 2005, Job No. 06155B butlerpartners.com.au Page 5 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 Validation Report Lot 566 on SP104107 (Road Easement Validation) Tennyson DPIF and ARI Site 681 Fairfield Road, Tennyson October 2007, Job No. 06155C Note: The GHD 2006 and Butler Partners 2007 report predominately relate the roadway which is not part of the subject site. Copies of these reports were previously provided to Butler Partners by the Department of Infrastructure and Planning (DIP) for use as background information in the development of an additional contaminated land investigation program for the site. Information contained in these reports is discussed further in Section 2.1. 1.3 Proposed Scope of Work To determine the nature of remediation works required at the site, the following scope of work was proposed: A compilation of historic data from previous contaminated land investigation and remediation reports for the site. In addition to the historic site use information in these reports, a review of activities at the site since the historic investigations were performed was undertaken to assess the potential for further contamination of the site from recent site activities. The aim of this review was to identify the following: previously remediated areas; areas of known soil contamination; areas of potential soil contamination requiring further assessment for remediation; and areas unlikely to have been impacted from historical site activities (background areas). The design of intrusive investigation program at the site was based on the results of the information obtained from the investigations discussed above. The program involved the collection and analysis of fill and natural soil materials on a 50m grid spacing in background areas of the site and a 30m grid in areas of the site with reported or potentially contaminating activities. The areas of contamination known to exist at the site as indicated on Drawing No. 2 included: northern Gully and Dam infilled with non-inert waste and soil impacted by heavy metals and pesticides; cattle dip areas; ash burial area; former underground fuel storage tank location; incinerator ash burial area; area north of the underground spring containing heavy metals; chemical burial area; hay shed areas; and western gully area. butlerpartners.com.au Page 6 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 The outcome of the program was to produce a site assessment report that identifies and delineates the areas of contamination requiring remediation prior to the site being removed from the EMR. This will include a Stage 2 ESA report incorporating site history review information completed based upon the Queensland DERM guidelines. An estimate will be provided for further delineation work to refine remediation volumes where the initial remediation volumes and available access restrictions indicate further sampling may reduce the remediation volumes. Based on the outcome of these investigations, areas of impact requiring remediation have been identified. It should be noted that as the investigations have been based on a broad grid based sampling pattern with some infill investigations as a result of site history investigations, the extent of the remediation areas are approximate only and further works would be required to provide a more accurate assessment of the volume of soil requiring off-site remediation. 1.4 Commission Based on the proposed nature of the development, the anticipated subsurface conditions and the scope of work, a fee to undertake the investigation was presented in a proposal of 21 January 2009. Butler Partners Pty Ltd were subsequently commissioned by the Department of Infrastructure and Planning (DIP) to conduct the environmental investigation as proposed. 1.5 Technical Framework In general, this ESA has been carried out in accordance with: Draft Guidelines for the Assessment and Management of Contaminated Land in Queensland, May 1998; Draft Investigation Thresholds for Underground Storage Tanks, January 1999; Australian Oil Industry Environmental Guidelines Working Group document Guidelines for the Management of Petroleum Hydrocarbon Impacted Land, April 1999; Australian Standard AS 4482.1-2005 Guide to the Sampling and Investigation of Potentially Contaminated Soil – Part 1: Non-volatile and Semi-volatile compounds; and National Environmental Protection (Assessment of Site Contamination) Measure 1999 (National Environment Protection Council). butlerpartners.com.au Page 7 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 SECTION 2 - THE SITE 2.1 Site Identification Details of the site are presented in Table 1. information are presented in Appendix A. Copies of the Current Land Title and Registered Plan Table 1: Summary of Registered Plan and Current Title Search Information Real Property Description Registered Owner Current Land Use (at the time of investigation) Area Local Government 2.2 Parish of Yeerongpilly, County of Stanley Lot 566 on SP214202 The State of Queensland (represented by Department of Primary Industries and Fisheries) Department of Infrastructure and Planning (DIP) Research Facility 14.6ha Brisbane Site Description The site described as Lot 566 on SP214202 is currently an operational Department of Infrastructure and Planning (DIP) (formerly the Department of Primary Industries and Fisheries (DPIF)) Animal Research Institute facility comprising, research laboratories, office and administration buildings, animal holding pens and buildings and animal paddocks. King Arthur Terrace transects the north of the site separating two portions of land from the main lot as shown on Drawing No. 1. For the purpose of investigation the site has been divided into four main areas as follows as shown on Drawing No. 1. 2.2.1 Northern Landing Area The northern landing area is located in the north western corner of the site and bound by the Brisbane River to the north, King Arthur Terrace to the south and residential land uses to the east and west. An electrical easement transects the southern portion of the northern landing area with a pedestrian footpath joining with the northern car park areas. A large gully is located in the north western corner extending from the Brisbane River to the northern edge of the electrical easement. 2.2.2 Northern Car Park Areas The northern car park area contains two sealed car parks in the north eastern corner of the site bound by Ortive Street to the north, King Arthur Terrace to the south, Fairfield Road to the east and residential land use to the west. The two car parks are divided by Mooney Street which connects Ortive Street and King Arthur Terrace. 2.2.3 In-filled Gully Area The in-filled gully area is located in the north western portion of the main DIP site and comprises land previously occupied by fenced agricultural paddocks. The topography is varied, indicating the filled nature of the area, but in general slopes in a southerly direction towards a former low point. Several small structures (animal shelters) are still present scattered across the area. butlerpartners.com.au Page 8 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 2.2.4 DIP Site Balance The balance of the DIP site comprises agricultural paddocks located in the south western portion of the site as well as research laboratories, office, administration buildings and car parking located in the central and eastern portions of the site. An aerial photograph of the site is presented as Photograph 1. Photograph 1: Current aerial photograph view of the site 2.3 Government Records A search of the DERM‟s Environmental Management Register (EMR) and Contaminated Land Register (CLR) indicates that Lot 566 on SP214202 is listed on the EMR as a „Managed‟ site. butlerpartners.com.au Page 9 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 Lot 566 on SP214202 is a child parcel of Lot 566 on SP195275. Lot 566 on SP195275 was listed on the EMR as a „Managed‟ site with an approved SMP. A SMP was approved for Lot 566 on SP195295 on 12 August 2008. The SMP identified that the land now known as King Arthur Terrace had been remediated and was suitable for any use. The remainder of the lot, now Lot 566 on SP214202 (the subject site), had not been investigated or remediated and no comment on the suitability of this land for use was provided. 2.4 Published Information 2.4.1 Fire Ants Review of the Department of Primary Industries Fire Ant Eradication and Surveillance Zone Plan updated 13 May 2009, indicates the site is not located in a Fire Ant infested area. 2.4.2 Geology Reference to the Geological Survey of Queensland‟s 1:31,680 Brisbane Map Sheet 3 indicates that the site is mapped on the boundary of land underlain by the Tennyson Formation comprising semi-consolidated sandy clay, sand and conglomerate, the Tingalpa Formation comprising carbonaceous shale, lithic sandstone with minor conglomerate and coal and the Moorooka Formation comprising massive siliceous conglomerate and sandstone with major shale. The sub-surface profile across the majority of the site consisted of topsoil and natural silty clayey soils. Alluvial sandy soils were encountered along the northern banks of the site. Fill material encountered on site was heterogeneous in nature is dominated by silty and sandy clays with varying quantities of gravel as well as building rubble, comprising both inert and non-inert construction and demolition waste. 2.5 Hydrogeology/Hydrology The regional hydrogeology of the area surrounding the site is described on the 1:2,500,000 map of Groundwater Resources of Queensland as having a very low bore yield of <5 litres per second and groundwater salinity varying between 500mg/L and 5,000mg/L, considered suitable for most purposes, marginal for human consumption and low salt tolerant crops. During well development and purging of groundwater wells installed at both the DPIF ARI site and the neighbouring power station site, eight of the eleven groundwater monitoring wells purged dry with a relatively low recharge (<5 L per second), which is similar to the groundwater aquifer yield estimate referred to on the Groundwater Resources of Queensland map. 2.6 Site Inspection A site inspection was undertaken on 24 July 2009 and comprised a site walkover. Inspection within site structures was not undertaken. The following observations were made: A metal above ground tank stand within a concrete bund was located to the south of the former cattle dip and spray race in the vicinity of Area 6 (Drawing No. 2). No tank was present and the likely former contents is undetermined; The former incinerator was located within a structure to the east of Area 3 and to the north of Area 5. The rear of the incinerator was located at a lower elevation than surrounding area suggesting either cutting or filling had occurred within the area; butlerpartners.com.au Page 10 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 A retaining wall and embankment was located along the southern boundary of Area 6 extending to the location of the incinerator suggesting cutting or filling had occurred within the area; The chemical store building identified in Area 7 was surrounded on the northern, eastern and southern sides by an open concrete drain. Surface waters from the southern portion of Area 7 drained into an interception pit, however surface waters from the northern portion drained to the north west corner from which they entered a grassed spoon drain continuing west towards a grassed area; The northern car park area (defined on Drawing No. 1) north of King Arthur Drive was predominantly sealed as car parking, with limited landscaping located around the perimeters. butlerpartners.com.au Page 11 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 SECTION 3 - SITE HISTORY 3.1 Historical Site Review Previous investigations undertaken at site are listed in Section 1.2, with a summary of the findings of the reports presented below. Analytical results presented in the Landfix and GHD investigations are considered to be indicative only due to the limited investigation extent, incomplete Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) measures implemented and laboratory limit of reporting (LOR) exceeding the soil investigation criteria adopted for the site (Table 5). 3.1.1 Historical Activities Previous site history investigations indicate that the site was originally occupied by a Stock Experimentation Station from 1909 to 1941 with the establishment of an animal disease laboratory and later a veterinary school in 1933. This facility was closed between 1941 and 1945 when the site is believed to have been occupied by the US Army Medical Corps. Since 1945 the site has operated as an Animal Research Facility conducting research on animal diseases, vaccinations and improving general animal health and production. Current practices include the management of waste streams through heat treating of fluid waste prior to sewer disposal, autoclaving of solid waste prior to disposal by a licensed operator and the collection of general refuse by waste contractors (including Brisbane City Council). Details of historic waste disposal practices are not known. 3.1.2 Landfix Report, October 2000 Landfix identified ten „hot spot‟ areas where potentially contaminating activities were conducted within the boundaries of the site as shown on Drawing No. 2. These areas were defined as follows: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. Underground Spring Filled Area – reported uncontrolled fill (lead glass fragments) in the north eastern corner of the site (cnr Fairfield Road and Ortive Street); Hay Shed – storage of animal feed and chemicals including pesticides; Incinerator Ash Dump – residual ash from the incineration of animal wastes and other materials dumped in this area; Catchment Tanks for Effluent – storage of effluent from animal pens; Disused Underground Fuel Storage Tank (UST) Area – UST reported to contain diesel fuel; Cattle Dip and Spray Race – plunge dip, drying area and spray race; Chemical Storage Building – storage of chemicals; Chemical Burial Area – possible burial of chemicals; Central Drainage Point – catchment of runoff from surrounding areas; and Filled Gully Area – large gully area filled with dredge spoil and non-inert waste material (estimated to be up to 9m in depth). Anecdotal evidence collected during the site history review indicated that Area 10 (filled gully area) was originally filled with dredge spoil from the Brisbane River, and was subsequently filled with inert and non-inert building rubble including asbestos cement sheeting and soil fill. butlerpartners.com.au Page 12 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 Landfix undertook a test pitting and soil sampling program on a 50m x 50m grid across the site, with additional investigation undertaken in the ten identified „hot spot‟ areas. Samples were analysed for a combination of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH), Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH), Polychlorinated Biphenyl (PCB), Arsenic (As), Cadmium (Cd), Chromium (Cr), Copper (Cu), Lead (Pb) and asbestos. Evidence of contamination was not identified in hot spot locations 3, 5, 7 8 and 9. Assessment of soil samples for Pb reported results that exceeded the adopted soil investigation criteria (defined in Table 5) at locations A1-1 (750mg/kg) and A7 (2,400mg/kg). Assessment of soils for Organochlorine Pesticides (OCPs) reported elevated DDT (and derivatives) that exceeded the adopted soil investigation criteria at locations A9-1 (2.9mg/kg), A9-3 (117mg/kg), A34-1 (0.49mg/kg), A35-1 (2.39mg/kg), A38-1 (0.78mg/kg) and A45-1 (1.4mg/kg). Assessment of soils for asbestos reported the presence of asbestos at sample location A70-3. The approximate locations with results exceeding the adopted soil investigation criteria are presented on Drawing No. 5 and Drawing No. 6. A number of limitations have been identified in the Landfix report and include: areas beneath existing buildings were not investigated due to access restrictions; soil sampling was not undertaken at depths greater than 1.5m below ground surface levels, with the collection of soil samples limited to 0-0.3m, 0.7-1.0m and 1.2-1.5m depth intervals; laboratory analysis did not include Mercury (Hg), Nickel (Ni) or Zinc (Zn); laboratory detection levels for OCPs were at or above the adopted soil investigation criteria; and QA/QC measures were not adequately implemented or reported. As discussed above, it is considered that the information presented in the Landfix report should only be used as an indication for the presence of soil contamination. Identified concentrations of contaminants of concern above established site investigation levels may be indicative of soil contamination, however, due to the elevated laboratory detection levels, limited QA/QC measures and limited analysis suite, any conclusions from this investigation must be treated with caution. 3.1.3 GHD Report, April 2006 GHD undertook a site contamination assessment comprising a review of available site history information and a limited programme of soil sampling within the proposed road easement (King Arthur Terrace) to assess the contamination status and develop remedial options prior to construction of the roadway. In addition to the Landfix report, GHD identified two additional hot spot areas as shown on Drawing No. 2, these are as follows: 11. 12. Northern Gully Area – large gully area filled with non-inert waste material; and Coal Stockpile Spill – area of reported spill of coal stockpile from the neighbouring Tennyson Power Station site. The location of Area 12 falls outside the current investigation site boundary and is therefore not discussed in this report or included on Drawing No. 2. GHD undertook further site history investigations including interview with site personnel. During these interviews it was established that internal access roads across the site may comprise coal ash. No ash was identified within GHD‟s limited investigation areas and further investigation should be undertaken to assess the presence of ash material. butlerpartners.com.au Page 13 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 In general, investigation was limited to the proposed road easement (now King Arthur Terrace and Mooney Street), however, test location SB5 was located to the north of the road reserve adjacent to the former cattle dip drying pad as shown on Drawing No. 5 and Drawing No. 6. Analytical results from SB5 reported concentrations of DDT (and derivatives) above the adopted soil investigation criteria (up to 31.1mg/kg). GHD installed two groundwater monitoring wells, one located within the former gully area (MW19 as shown on Drawing No. 5) and one adjacent to the former cattle dip (within the road easement). Analytical results reported concentrations of As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni and Zn above the laboratory‟s LOR, with concentrations of Pb and OCPs reported below the laboratory‟s LOR. A Remediation Action Plan (RAP) was prepared by GHD in May 2006, establishing remedial methodologies and remediation criteria for the road easement. 3.1.4 Butler Partners Report, 23 November 2006 (Gully Investigation) To assess the contamination status and extent of filling in the former gully area, Butler Partners excavated fifteen test pits, drilled twenty soil bores and installed 2 groundwater monitoring wells in the gully area. Information obtained from this investigation was used to determine the distribution of identified OCP contamination at the site, as well as, the locations of the interface between fill material and natural soils in the vicinity of the filled gullies (Areas 10 and 11). Sample locations are presented on Drawing No. 5. The area south of the road easement was found to contain visible waste materials at test location BPB2, BPTP9 and BPTP11. Assessment of soils for OCPs reported concentrations of DDT (and derivatives) exceeding the adopted soil investigation criteria at test location BPTP9 (0.449mg/kg). Assessment of soils for Cd reported concentrations that exceeded the adopted soil investigation criteria at test location BPB5 (4mg/kg). Assessment of soils for Zn reported concentrations that exceeded the adopted soil investigation criteria at test locations BPB2 (580mg/kg) and BPB5 (420mg/kg). An isolated fragment of fibrous cement sheeting containing chrysotile asbestos was identified in fill at test location BPTP9. The area north of the road easement contained buried fill forming a former „dam‟ wall behind which dredge spoil was reportedly placed. Visible waste material comprising inert and non-inert materials was identified at test locations BPTP1, BPTP2, BPTP4, BPTP5 and BPTP6. Assessment of soils reported concentrations of DDT above the adopted soil investigation criteria at location BPB11 (0.382mg/kg). An electrical easement transects this area, running east west to the north of the road easement, and as such the electrical easement was not investigated. Two groundwater wells were installed, BPMW1 (BPB5) located within the infilled gully area and BPMW2 (BPB8) located in the northern landing area as shown on Drawing No. 5. Analytical results reported concentrations of As, Ni and Zn above the laboratory‟s LOR. Results from the soil investigation located within the current investigation area are presented in Table 2, with test locations and soil exceedences shown on Drawing No. 5 and Drawing No. 6. butlerpartners.com.au Page 14 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 3.1.5 Butler Partners Road Easement Validation, October 2007 Contaminated soil material within the road easement (King Arthur Terrace and Mooney Street) was excavated and removed from site in accordance with the approved RAP resulting in the removal of the road easement from DERM‟s EMR (Note: this land is not part of the subject site). During remediation work, validation samples were collected from the walls of the remediation areas. Results located along the boundary or within the current investigation area are presented in Table 2, with test locations and soil exceedences shown on Drawing No. 5 and Drawing No. 6. 3.2 Aerial Photograph Review As part of the current investigation, a historical aerial photograph review was undertaken of available aerial photographs taken between 1946 and 2007 with the specific focus of identifying buildings constructed or demolished in the vicinity of the ten „hot spot‟ areas. This information was then used during field geophysical investigations and additional soil sampling to assess if impacts potential extend beneath current site structures and facilities. In addition, a high resolution 1946 aerial photograph was reviewed enabling the following additional site observations to be made: - - a gully was located in the north eastern portion of the site, beginning at Fairfield Road (to the south of Area 1) and continuing in a north westerly direction towards the end of Ortive Street. The gully then trended south west and joined with Area 11 before entering the Brisbane River; and Area 9 (central drainage point) formerly connected to Area 10 (filled gully area) and extended approximately 100m further east than previously recorded. In addition, the higher resolution image enabled the extents of the former gully to be more accurately mapped. Drawing No. 3 (attached) shows an extract from the 1946 aerial photograph, with the approximate extent of gully areas shown on Drawing No. 4 (attached). A summary of the historical photograph observations recorded for the filled gully area (Area 10) is presented below: butlerpartners.com.au Page 15 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 1946 1955 1968 1970 1974 1978 1983 1987 A tree lined gully extends from the western portion of the site northwards to the Brisbane River. Similar to the 1946 aerial photograph, however, the majority of the trees have been cleared and some minor filling may have occurred. Similar to the 1955 aerial photograph, however, due to the poor resolution of the image the gully extent can‟t be accurately identified. The central portion of the gully is clearly defined, however, the gully does not appear to extend northwards beyond the location of the current dam wall to connect with the Brisbane River. Some minor filling of the gully may have occurred. The gully is no longer visible and appears to have been filled with the exception of the southern most area of the main gully which appears to have been partially filled. Several stockpiles of material appear to have been placed over the location of the former filled gully area, however, the southern portion still appears to only be partially filled. The stockpiles are no longer visible and the southern portion remains similar to the 1978 aerial photograph. The partially filled southern area is no longer visible and appears to have been filled. The central drainage point identified as Area 9 is visible and appears consistent with the current topography of the site. The remaining photographs reviewed from 1990, 1993, 1994, 1997, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2007 appear similar to the 1987 aerial photograph. butlerpartners.com.au Page 16 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 SECTION 4 - FIELDWORK 4.1 Ground Magnetics Survey GAP Geophysics Australia Pty Ltd (GAP Geophysics) were commissioned to undertake a magnetometer survey across the site to aid in the identification of disturbed and filled areas across the site. The use of a magnetometer survey was proposed to detect changes in magnetic character of ground conditions associated with buried ferrous material previously identified within site fill. Due to interference by metallic objects and access restrictions the survey was limited to open areas across the site. A copy of the GAP Geophysics report is attached in Appendix B, with areas of identified fill shown on Drawing No. 7. Interpretation of the magnetometer survey data undertaken by GAP Geophysics identified 23 objects or areas of interest, of these the following were selected for further investigation: Area 1 2 3 14 15 16 17 18 19 23 GAP Geophysics Recommendation In-filled gully area comprising areas of varying magnetic character Small area amongst trees, interference by fencing Adjacent to Area 1 with magnetic character not reflective of background Single item or burial pit Single item or burial pit Worth investigating Linear feature (service?) Large mono-polar response Possible “Dirty Fill” Possible imported fill Additional Investigation Undertaken further investigation comprised TP6, TP7 and TP40 – TP44 Identified as metal objects on the surface (fencing) further investigation comprised TP7 Identified as a service pit cover Identified as a service pit cover Further investigation comprised TP26 Consistent with Gas and Water mains located in this vicinity Fenced area containing water and fire hydrant mains Further investigation comprised TP18 – TP20 Further investigation comprised TP33 – TP34 and B65 Areas 4-13 and 20-22 were not selected for further investigation as they generally comprised known objects not associated with filling activities. Further explanation of these areas is provided in the GAP Geophysics report attached in Appendix B. 4.2 Drilling and Sampling Methods Fieldwork was undertaken on 30 November, 1 December and 8 December 2009, and comprised the excavation of forty seven test pits (TP1 to TP47) and drilling of nineteen bore holes (B48 to B66). Bores were drilled using a Gemco HP7 operating solid flight augers, with strata identification and soil samples taken from the auger flights. Test pits were excavated using a Cat 428B backhoe to a depth of 3.4m, with strata identification from material brought to the surface in the backhoe bucket and also by observation in the walls of the pit. butlerpartners.com.au Page 17 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 To minimise the potential for cross contamination of samples, each sample was collected using disposable gloves, which were replaced between the collection of each sample. Samples were placed immediately into laboratory prepared jars that were sealed, labelled with a unique identifier and placed into a chilled ice chest. Each sample was immediately recorded on a chain of custody register, which was used to track the movement of the samples. The samples remained in the chilled ice chest and were transported to the analytical laboratory for analysis. 4.3 Test Locations and Supervision Bore and test pit locations were set-out by direct measurement from existing site boundaries in conjunction with a GPS unit accurate to 2m. Ground surface levels at test locations were interpolated from HPA Architects „Remediation Plan‟, Drawing No. 00-SK0030 dated December 2005. An experienced environmental scientist set out the test locations, logged the stratigraphy encountered in the test pits and bores, and undertook the in-situ sampling and testing program. butlerpartners.com.au Page 18 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 SECTION 5 - INVESTIGATION RESULTS 5.1 Results The subsurface conditions encountered at the bore and test pit locations are provided in detail on Bore and Test Pit Reports presented in Appendix C, using classification and descriptive terms defined in attached notes. 5.2 Laboratory Testing In general, soil samples from each 0.5m depth interval and/or from each strata unit down the soil profile until natural soils were encountered, were submitted to Australian Laboratory Services (ALS), a laboratory registered by NATA for the analyses required. Based on site history and fieldwork observations soil samples were submitted for a combination of the following analyses: Heavy metals – representative samples from each location and strata unit; PAH – in areas where ash or dark discolouration was observed; TPH – in areas previously noted as being impacted or where visual or olfactory observations indicated the potential presence of hydrocarbons; MAH as benzene, toluene, ethyl benzene and xylenes (BTEX) – as for TPH; Organochlorine/Organophosphorus pesticides (OC/OP) – representative samples from each location and strata unit PCB – in areas where former electrical components were observed; and Asbestos – in areas where potential asbestos containing material was observed. A summary of the laboratory results for this additional ESA is given in Table 2, Table 3 and Table 4 and the laboratory reports are provided in Appendix D. Results from previous investigations by Landfix, GHD and Butler Partners (gully investigation and road easement validation) are presented given in Table 2. Laboratory documentation from previous investigations have not been included in this report 5.3 Subsurface Conditions The subsurface conditions encountered at the test locations are given in detail on the attached bore and test pit report sheets (Appendix C), using classification and descriptive terms defined in attached notes. To permit the logical discussion of the results of the investigation, the site has been divided into four assessment areas: butlerpartners.com.au Page 19 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 5.3.1 Northern Landing Area Extensive filling has occurred within two former gullies located along the eastern and western boundaries of the Northern Landing Area. Investigation was undertaken to a maximum depth of 7.5m, with fill reported to a depth of 2.5m. However, fill is anticipated to be up to 7m in depth in the western gully and up to 3m in depth in the eastern gully based on historical information available of the original ground surface levels. Fill material comprised silty clays and silty sands with concrete, timber, metal, plastic, brick, fibrous cement sheeting, glass, coal, coral, cobbles, gravel. An electrical easement runs through the south portion of the northern landing area, and is likely to contain fill material, however, no assessment has been undertaken within the easement. Natural soils comprised brown silty clays and silty sand clays. 5.3.2 Northern Car Park Areas It is understood that minor earthworks were undertaken during the construction of the two northern car parks, with the placement of a road base material beneath the asphalt layer, however, specific information was unavailable at the time of reporting. Fill material was identified to a depth of 1.2m in the westernmost car and to a depth of 0.6m in the easternmost car park. Fill generally comprised roadbase material overlying grey and brown silty clays, however, brick was identified at test locations B50 and B52, and traces of coal were identified at test location B53. Natural soils comprised brown silty clays, sandy clays and silty sandy clays. 5.3.3 In-filled Gully Area Extensive filling has occurred within the in-filled gully to a depth of 4.2m and it appears that filling may have occurred over a period of time. Investigations are consistent with reports that the gully was originally filled with dredge spoil material with building rubble and soil fill placed over the top. Fill comprising building rubble, incinerator waste (ash with unburnt materials) and charcoal were identified in the northern and southern portions of the in-filled gully area as highlighted on Drawing No. 7. Dredge spoil and natural soils were often difficult to distinguish as both comprised brown and grey silty clays and silty sand clays. 5.3.4 DIP Site Balance In general, the balance of the DIP site was underlain by natural brown silty clays and silty sandy clays, with shallow fill at a number of locations. Larger areas of fill were identified in portions of the site, with fill extending to a depth of 1.4m. Fill comprising building rubble, ash and charcoal were identified in the northern portions of the area along King Arthur Terrace, with isolated areas located across the remainder of the site as highlighted on Drawing No. 7. 5.4 Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) Methods Soil samples were dispatched under Chain of Custody documentation provided in Appendix D in order to identify sample movements. The laboratory‟s internal QA/QC measures included spike analyses, method blanks and duplicates. The laboratory‟s internal QA/QC results for each batch are included in the laboratory reports. butlerpartners.com.au Page 20 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 Blind (inter-laboratory) and split (intra-laboratory) duplicate samples were collected at a rate of approximately one duplicate for every 20 primary samples. In general, primary and blind duplicate samples were submitted to Australian Laboratory Services (ALS), with split duplicate samples submitted to Advanced Analytical Australia (AAA) for the requested analyses. The analytical results for each duplicate were compared to the primary sample results using Relative Percent Differences (RPD). The RPD is defined as the absolute difference between two values, divided by their mean values and expressed as a percentage. Where either the primary or duplicate sample (or both) have concentrations below the laboratory‟s LOR, the RPD is not calculated. The calculated RPD values of 50% or less are typically considered acceptable. To ensure the integrity of data transfer the electronic data supplied by the laboratory has been used to develop the results summary tables.

ENVIRONMENTAL DISCUSSION 6.1 Contaminated Land 6.1.1 Potential Contamination Sources Potentially contaminating activities identified in the site history review and observations made on site include: storage and use of pesticides, chemicals and petroleum hydrocarbons (small volumes); operation of a cattle dip and spray race; filling of the site Contaminants of Potential Concern (CPC) associated with the identified potentially contaminating activities listed above comprise: heavy metals; total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH); benzene, ethyl-benzene, toluene and xylene (BTEX); polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH); and organochlorine and organophosphorus pesticides (OC/OP). 6.1.2 Results and Assessment Criteria 6.1.2.1 Soil Assessment Criteria To assess the suitability of the site for its proposed use, assessment criteria are required for the identified CPC‟s. The soil investigation criteria presented in Table 5 below have been developed for heavy metals, PAH and OC/OP based on the Queensland DERM‟s Draft Guidelines for the Assessment and Management of Contaminated Land in Queensland, May 1998 (‘the Guidelines’) with soil investigation criteria for TPH and BTEX based on Queensland DERM‟s Draft Investigation Threshold for Underground Storage Tanks – January 1999. butlerpartners.com.au Page 26 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 Table 5: Soil Investigation Criteria for Asbestos Fragments Contaminant Adopted Soil Investigation Criteria (mg/kg) TPH (C6-C9) 100 TPH (C10-C14) 100 TPH (C14-C28) 1000 TPH (C29-C36) 1000 Benzene 1 BTEX 7 Benzo(a)pyrene 1 Total PAHs 20 Arsenic (As) 100 Cadmium (Cd) 3 Chromium (Cr) 400 Copper (Cu) 200 Lead (Pb) 300 Mercury (Hg) 1 Nickel (Ni) 60 Zinc (Zn) 400 Cobalt (Co) 100 Aldrin and Dieldrin 0.2 DDT, DDE and DDD 0.2 Asbestos 0.001% w/w asbestos for friable asbestos and asbestos fibres in soil 0.01% w/w asbestos for asbestos in asbestos containing materials* Notes: * Based on the Western Australian Health Commission Guidelines for the Assessment, Remediation and Management of Asbestos-Contaminated Sites in Western Australia, May 2009 6.1.3 Aesthetic Evaluation for Soil For the purposes of removing the site from DERM‟s EMR Aesthetic Guidelines discussed in Section 3.5, Schedule 1B of the NEPM state that soils should not be discoloured, malodorous (including when dug over or wet) nor of abnormal consistency. According to the DERM‟s operational policy (Licensing requirements for construction and demolition wastes, 2002) inert waste material, suitable for use as backfill on-site is classified as: I. II. III. Bricks, pavers and ceramics Concrete (including embedded steel reinforcing rods), pulverised to a maximum 300mm nominal size; and Clean earthen fill (no identified contamination). Other elements generally identified as construction and demolition waste not considered to be inert waste under the operational policy, include, inter alia: Glass; Green Waste; Plastics; butlerpartners.com.au Page 27 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 Metal; Plasterboard; Cardboard/paper; and Timber. 6.1.4 Comparison of Results to Assessment Criteria The results of the laboratory analyses from the current investigation along with previous investigations by Butler Partners have been compared with the assessment criteria and the results are summarised below. 6.1.4.1 Metals Arsenic (As) – one of the two hundred and seventy-nine samples tested returned concentrations above the adopted soil investigation criterion; Cadmium (Cd) – five of the two hundred and seventy-nine samples tested returned concentrations above the adopted soil investigation criterion; Chromium (Cr) – all of the two hundred and seventy-nine samples tested returned concentrations below the adopted soil investigation criterion; Copper (Cu) – two of the four hundred and thirty-seven samples tested returned concentrations above the adopted soil investigation criterion; Lead (Pb) – four of the two hundred and seventy-nine samples tested returned concentrations above the adopted soil investigation criterion, with one of these samples the HIL-D criterion; Mercury (Hg) - all of the two hundred and twenty-three samples tested returned concentrations below the adopted soil investigation criterion; Nickel (Ni) – three of the two hundred and seventy-nine samples tested returned concentrations above the adopted soil investigation criterion; and Zinc (Zn) – fifteen of the two hundred and seventy-nine samples tested returned concentrations above the adopted soil investigation criterion. 6.1.4.2 Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH) Total PAH – six of the thirty-five samples tested returned concentrations above the laboratory‟s limit of reporting (LOR), with one of these samples above both the adopted soil investigation criterion and the HIL-D criterion; and Benzo(a)pyrene (B(a)P) – two of the forty-seven samples tested returned concentrations above the laboratory‟s LOR, with both samples exceeding the adopted soil investigation criterion and one of these samples exceeding the HIL-D criterion. 6.1.4.3 Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) All of sixteen samples tested returned concentrations of all TPH fractions below the laboratory‟s LOR and the respective adopted soil investigation criteria. 6.1.4.4 Benzene, Toluene, Ethyl benzene and Xylene (BTEX) All of the sixteen samples tested returned concentrations of all BTEX compounds below the laboratory‟s LOR and the respective adopted soil investigation criteria. butlerpartners.com.au Page 28 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 6.1.4.5 OC/OP’s Aldrin and Dieldrin – two of the one hundred and seventy-nine samples tested returned concentrations above the laboratory‟s LOR, with all samples below the adopted soil investigation criterion; Chlordane and Heptachlor – all of the one hundred and seventy-nine samples tested returned concentrations below the laboratory‟s LOR. No adopted soil investigation criterion was adopted for chlordane and heptachlor, however, as no samples reported concentrations above the laboratory‟s LOR it is considered that further investigation is not required; and DDT – thirty two of the one hundred and seventy-nine samples tested returned concentrations above the laboratory‟s LOR, with twenty seven of these samples above the adopted soil investigation criterion. 6.1.4.6 Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCB) Both of the two samples tested returned concentrations below both the laboratory‟s LOR and the adopted soil investigation criterion. 6.1.4.7 Asbestos All of the nineteen soil samples tested returned no detectable traces of asbestos. Four samples of fibrous cement sheeting products were submitted for asbestos analysis. Of these samples all of the four samples were reported to contain both chrysotile and amosite asbestos fibres within the cement matrix. 6.1.4.8 Leachability The Heavy metal Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) analysis results for samples TP14-2, TP20-2, TP20-3, TP22-2, TP23-2, TP33-2, TP33-3, TP41-5 and TP41-6 were below the generally accepted unlined landfill acceptance criteria. Based on these heavy metal results, if this soil was to be disposed to landfill it would most likely be classified as suitable for unlined landfill disposal. The OC Pesticides TCLP analysis results for samples TP14-2, TP20-2, TP22-2, TP23-2 and TP33-3 were below the unlined landfill acceptance criteria. Based on these OC pesticides results, if this soil was to be disposed to landfill it would most likely be classified as suitable for unlined landfill disposal. However, previous investigations identified concentrations of DDT of up to 300mg/kg with no TCLP results available for these samples. Further discussion is provided in Section 6.2. The B(a)P TCLP analysis results for samples TP14-2 and TP20-2 were below the generally accepted unlined landfill acceptance criterion. Based on these B(a)P results, if the soil were to be disposed to landfill it would most likely be classified as suitable for unlined landfill disposal. The PAH TCLP analysis results for samples TP20-2 and TP14-2 found that the soil represented by TP20-2 would most likely require unlined landfill disposal and the soil represented by TP14-2 would most likely require lined landfill disposal. butlerpartners.com.au Page 29 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 6.1.4.9 QA/QC Two of the three rinsate blanks collected during field work reported concentrations of heavy metals above the laboratory‟s LOR (Table 2), indicating that samples may be biased high due to insufficient equipment decontamination or sampling techniques. The rinsate blank collected on 30 November 2009 reported a concentration of Cd, Cu, Pb, Ni and Zn above the laboratory‟s LOR, suggesting that results may have been biased high for these heavy metals. The rinsate blank collected on 8 December 2009 reported a concentration of Cd and Zn above the laboratory‟s LOR, suggesting that results may have been biased high for these heavy metals. However, a review of sample results for these days found that all samples returned concentrations below the adopted assessment criteria. It is noted that disposal sampling equipment was used in the collection of samples comprising nitrile gloves and plastic spatulas (where required). Based on the discussion above the identified impacts in the rinsate water have not adversely affected the analytical results for this investigation. 6.2 Northern Landing Area DDT Delineation In order to delineate the DDT contamination identified above the maximum landfill disposal concentrations at test locations A9 and WV-D4 in the Northern Landing area, eleven additional bores were drilled (B67 to B77). The investigation was limited due to access restrictions within an electrical easement and a pedestrian footpath transecting the investigation area. However, bores were able to be drilled to the south, south-east and north of the DDT impact area, at increasing distance from the identified impact. Five of the nineteen additional samples analysed returned concentrations above the adopted soil investigation criterion, but all samples results are below the maximum landfill disposal concentration of 50mg/kg. Results from the additional testing are presented in Table 6, with a summary of results presented on Drawing No. 9. Laboratory report sheets are presented in Appendix D. The results indicate that the volume of contaminated soil requiring treatment due to DDT impacts exceeding the maximum landfill disposal has been delineated as shown on Drawing No. 9. Further discussion on remediation requirements for this area are provided in Section 8.1.2.3 of this report. butlerpartners.com.au Page 30 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 Table 6: Northern Landing DDT Delineation Results Organics (mg/kg) Sample Date Sample Duplicate Sample Number Sample Depth Pesticides Material Type Aldrin & Dieldrin Chlordane DDT Heptachlor 0.2 - 0.2 - DERM HIL-D (mg/kg) 40 200 800 40 Laboratory Level of Reporting (mg/kg) 0.1 0.1 0.3 0.1 Soil Investigation Criteria (mg/kg) Butler Partners - Landing Area DDT Delineation 19-Jan-10 - B67-1 0.3-0.7 Sandy Clay <LOR <LOR <LOR <LOR 19-Jan-10 Blind DUP113 0.3-0.7 Duplicate of B67-1 <LOR <LOR <LOR <LOR 19-Jan-10 - B67-2 0.9-1.2 Sandy Clay <LOR <LOR <LOR <LOR 19-Jan-10 - B69-1 0.4-0.6 Fill <LOR <LOR 5.75 <LOR 19-Jan-10 - B69-2 0.8-1.1 Fill <LOR <LOR 1.68 <LOR 19-Jan-10 - B69-3 1.4-1.6 Sandy Silt <LOR <LOR <LOR <LOR 19-Jan-10 - B73-4 1.9-2.1 Sandy Silt <LOR <LOR <LOR <LOR 19-Jan-10 - B74-1 0.4-0.6 Sandy Silt <LOR <LOR <LOR <LOR 19-Jan-10 - B74-2 0.9-1.1 Sandy Silt <LOR <LOR <LOR <LOR 19-Jan-10 - B74-3 1.1-2.0 Sandy Silt <LOR <LOR <LOR <LOR 19-Jan-10 - B75-1 0.3-0.6 Sandy Silt <LOR <LOR <LOR <LOR 19-Jan-10 - B75-2 0.8-1.1 Sandy Silt <LOR <LOR <LOR <LOR 19-Jan-10 - B75-3 1.4-1.6 Sandy Silt <LOR <LOR <LOR <LOR 19-Jan-10 - B77-3 1.8-2.4 Sandy Silt <LOR <LOR <LOR <LOR 19-Jan-10 - B68-1 0-0.6 Fill <LOR <LOR <LOR <LOR 19-Jan-10 - B68-2 0.6-1.2 Sandy Clay <LOR <LOR <LOR <LOR 19-Jan-10 - B76-1 0.3-0.6 Fill <LOR <LOR 0.32 <LOR 19-Jan-10 - B76-2 0.9-1.2 Fill <LOR <LOR 0.31 <LOR 19-Jan-10 - B76-3 1.4-1.8 Fill <LOR <LOR 4.12 <LOR NOTES: 1 Analyte exceeds the adopted Soil Investigation Criteria 1 Analyte exceeds the HIL-D Guideline Criteria 20 Soil Investigation Criteria <LOR butlerpartners.com.au Below the limit of reporting Page 31 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 SECTION 7 - DATA QUALITY 7.1 Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) Methods The samples were dispatched under Chain of Custody documentation provided in Appendix D in order to identify sample movements. To ensure the integrity of data transfer the electronic data supplied by the laboratory has been used to develop the results summary tables. Data quality is assessed with respect to completeness, accuracy, precision, sensitivity, laboratory blanks, holding times, field duplicates and representativeness. The QA parameters are discussed in what follows as indicators of data quality. The data quality assessment has been undertaken for the current investigation only, comprising the analytical results from locations TP1 to TP47 and B48 to B66. Data quality assessment for previous investigations undertaken by Butler Partners are included in the reports identified in Section 2.1. 7.1.1 Completeness The following information is required to check for completeness of data sets: chain-of-custody forms (signed by Butler Partners and the laboratory); sample receipt forms; all sample results reported; all blank data reported; all lab duplicates reported and relative percent differences (RPDs) calculated; all surrogate spike data reported; all matrix spike and matrix spike duplicate (MS/MSD) data reported and RPDs calculated; and NATA stamp on reports. The results of this check indicated that required documentation and data has been reported on NATA approved reports. 7.1.2 Accuracy Accuracy is a measure of the agreement between an experimental determination and the true value of the parameter being measured. The determination of accuracy can be achieved through the analysis of known reference materials or assessed by the analysis of matrix spikes. Spiking of reference materials into an actual sample matrix is the preferred technique because it provides a measure of the matrix effects on the analytical accuracy. Accuracy is measured in terms of percentage recovery as defined by the following equation: %R = butlerpartners.com.au SSR - SR X 100 SA Page 32 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 where: %R = percentage recovery of the spike SSR = spiked sample result SR = sample result (native) SA = spike added Laboratory personnel calculate percentage recoveries of spiked compounds, which are evaluated against control or acceptance limits taken from the appropriate NATA approved method. If the spike recovery for a sample does not fall within the prescribed control limits, laboratory based corrective action is taken, although the sample is not necessarily reanalysed. Surrogate spikes consist of spiking non-target compounds into the sample prior to analysis. The spiked compounds are expected to behave during analysis in the same way as the target compounds. Every sample is spiked prior to extraction or analysis with surrogate compounds that are representative of the analysis. If surrogate spike recovery does not meet the prescribed control limits, samples are generally reanalysed. Matrix spikes and matrix spike/matrix spike duplicates (MS/MSDs) are analysed at a frequency of one in ten samples or one per analytical batch, whichever is more frequent. Matrix spike/matrix spike duplicates are analysed by splitting a field sample. Each portion is spiked with known quantities of the target compound in order to ascertain the effects of the specific sample matrix on the recovery of analytes. The sample batch may contain samples from other sources. Therefore, MS/MSDs may be analysed on other samples from the batch or on a „clean‟ matrix (e.g. distilled water). However, the laboratory‟s QA/QC procedures require all batch MS/MSDs to conform to the prescribed criteria. The laboratory may report this analysis as laboratory control samples, which may be used to assess the laboratory‟s methods and procedures. According to guidelines, sample results are qualified when a matrix spike recovery is below or above the QA acceptance criteria. Typically, results are qualified when percentage recovery is below QA acceptance criteria, indicating that sample results may be biased low. However, results are also qualified when percentage recovery is above QA acceptance criteria, indicating that sample results may be biased high. Samples EB0919030-063 (Aldrin, Dieldrin, Prothiofos) and EB0919030-088 (Aldrin) recorded a recovery less than the lower data quality objective indicating results were biased low. Samples EB0919637-011 (Zn), EB0919030-063 (Heptachlor) and ES0918322-001 (Prothiofos) recorded a recovery greater than the upper data quality objective indicating sample results were biased high. These exceedences of DQOs suggests about a 1.4% DQO failure rate (0.8% biased low and 0.6% biased high) and occurred due to the elevated concentrations in the samples. Samples EB0918929-054 (Zn) and EN0902256-001 (Cu) failed to record a recovery due to background levels of the target analyte being greater than or equal to 4 times the spike level. butlerpartners.com.au Page 33 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 7.1.3 Precision Precision is a measure of the ability to reproduce results, and is assessed on the basis of agreement between a set of replicate results obtained from duplicate analyses. The precision of a duplicate determination can be measured as relative percentage difference (RPD), and is calculated from the following equation: RPD = where: X1 - X2 X1 X 2 2 100 X1 is the first duplicate value X2 is the second duplicate value Laboratory personnel calculate the RPDs of laboratory duplicates and matrix spike/matrix spike duplicates. Control or acceptance limits are taken from the appropriate method. If the RPD for a sample does not fall within the control limits, laboratory based corrective action is taken; however, the sample is not necessarily reanalysed. All laboratory duplicates and matrix spike/matrix spike duplicate RPDs were reported within prescribed limits. As previously noted, a laboratory batch may contain samples from other sources. Therefore, laboratory duplicates and MS/MSDs may be analysed on other samples from the batch. However, the laboratory‟s QA/QC procedures require all batch laboratory duplicates and MS/MSDs to conform to prescribed criteria. Samples EB0918929-082 (Cu, Pb), EB0918929--036 (Ni, Zn) and EB0919030-054 (Zn), exceeded the LOR based limits for the nominated analytes. These occurred due to raised LORs occurring from the elevated concentrations in the samples. 7.1.4 Sensitivity Sensitivity criteria are used to monitor achievement of quantification using method detection limits. Method detection limits depend on the method of analysis, the instrument's ability to measure analytes and the sample matrix; in particular, background interferences. When interferences are present in the sample, a loss of sensitivity can occur resulting in an increase in the method detection limit. In some instances (e.g. where one or more compounds have particularly high concentrations) the sample must be diluted for analysis. This increases the method detection limit by the dilution factor. Method detection limits for soil/sediments are based on „wet weight‟. Actual detection limits are calculated on a „dry weight‟ basis and are higher. The detection limits achieved by the laboratory were below the site criteria for all analytes. butlerpartners.com.au Page 34 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 7.1.5 Laboratory Blanks Laboratory blanks monitor externally introduced contaminants that potentially derive from glassware, cleaning reagents and digestion reagents during the analysis process. The blank consists of water and digestion reagents prepared in the laboratory. The laboratory blank is treated as a sample in the laboratory, going through the same sample preparation and analysis procedures as corresponding samples. To meet the QC acceptance criteria the laboratory blanks should have no detectable concentrations of the target compounds. The laboratory blank results are presented in the laboratory analytical reports. All laboratory blank results were reported within prescribed acceptance criteria. 7.1.6 Holding times Holding times from field sampling to laboratory analysis must be minimised to ensure the representativeness of the result obtained. Delays between sampling and analysis can lead to analytes changing due to processes such as volatilisation, mineralisation, and biological modification. Where standard holding times are exceeded, professional judgement as to the integrity of the data will be required, taking into account such factors as field storage, laboratory storage and even sample bottle characteristics. Samples from work order EB0919741 exceeded the analysis holding times for moisture content by up to seven days and TCLP leach by up to one day. Samples exceeding the prescribed holding times for the TCLP leach were analysed for PAH, OCPs, As and Cu, with all results reported below the laboratory‟s LOR. As the LOR for each of the analytes are below the respective adopted TCLP criteria, it is not considered that an exceedance of one day on the holding time would have greatly influence the reported results. All remaining analytical testing was completed within the prescribed holding times for the specific test. 7.1.7 Field Duplicates Blind duplicates were collected and the pairs of samples (i.e. duplicate and primary) were submitted for analysis for the contaminants of concern. Blind and split duplicate sample (pairs) were collected at a rate of one set of duplicate samples for twenty primary samples. The duplicate analytical results were compared to the primary results using relative percentage difference (RPD). The RPD is the absolute difference between two results divided by their mean values and expressed as a percentage. Where either primary or duplicate results have concentrations below the laboratory level of reporting, the RPD was not calculated. A RPD value of below 50% is considered an acceptable data quality objective (DQO) (refer to Table 7). A total of thirteen split field duplicate samples and thirteen blind field duplicate samples were collected and analysed for a total of one hundred and eighty-five samples analysed. This is within the DQO of one pair of duplicate samples per twenty primary samples. RPDs for As, Pb, Hg, Ni and Zn in soil samples found to be above the 50% range are summarised in Table 7. These exceedences are likely to be caused by the heterogeneous nature of the fill materials. A disturbance of natural material along with natural mineralisation of natural soils could also contribute to the exceedences observed. In addition, small differences in results at low concentrations approaching the LOR can produce high RPDs not reflective of data errors, such as the RPD reported for Hg in sample TP27-1. butlerpartners.com.au Page 35 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 The remainder of the primary and duplicate concentrations for each of the analytes tested were either below the level of reporting (LOR), or within the acceptable RPD range and as such, the QC results are considered acceptable based on this analysis. A full set of RPD calculations are provided in Appendix D. Table 7: Duplicate Samples Greater than 50% RPD Sample Number Analyte Primary Sample (mg/kg) Duplicate Sample (mg/kg) Duplicate Type RPD (%) TP8-1 As 21 11 Split 63 Split Blind 81 52 82 59 53 53 77 TP16-2 Pb 20 9 TP27-1 Hg 0.2 0.1 TP45-4 Pb 17 Pb 12 10 5 7 B54-2 B60-1 B65-4 7.1.8 Ni 4 2 Split Blind Split Blind Ni Zn Pb 21 32 25 36 55 56 Blind Blind Blind 67 67 Representativeness Representativeness expresses the degree to which sample data accurately and precisely represents a characteristic of a population, parameter variations at a sampling point, or an environmental condition. Representativeness is primarily dependent on the design and implementation of the sampling program and is partially ensured by the avoidance of contamination, adherence to sample handling and analysis protocols, and use of proper chain-of-custody and documentation procedures. Blanks, holding times and field duplicates are all QA parameters that can assist in the analysis of representativeness. The QA/QC evaluation presented in this report generally confirms the representativeness of the samples analysed. Therefore, the analytical data reported is considered suitable for the assessment of the site. butlerpartners.com.au Page 36 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 SECTION 8 - REMEDIATION DISCUSSION Based on the results of the additional ESA and the understanding of DIP‟s intentions for the site, three options are presented below for the management of contaminated soil on Lot 566 on SP214202. 8.1.1 Leave the Site on DERM’s EMR with an Approved SMP If the entire site is to remain on DERM‟s EMR with an approved Site Management Plan (Note – low density residential landuse will not be permitted), then the following steps will be required to adequately manage contaminated soil material with consideration for ongoing protection of the environment and human health: 1. 2. 8.1.2 The current Site Management Plan (SMP) will be required to be amended for Lot 566 on SP214202 outlining the extent and nature of contamination in addition to management controls to be implemented on the site (e.g. restrictions on landuse, capping etc). In order to facilitate this, additional soil and groundwater investigations are likely to be required to accurately delineate the impacts on the site, as well as permit the development of suitable management controls. Depending on the final land use(s) proposed for the site, elevated concentrations of contaminants (namely PAH, B(a)P, Pb and DDT) will need to be reassessed against the health based investigation levels applicable for the proposed land use and potential environmental impacts, with materials found non compliant removed, remediated or contained in a suitable area (e.g. contaminant cell) within the site‟s boundaries. Remove the site from DERM’s EMR If it is proposed to remove the entire site from DERM‟s EMR, then contaminated soil above the developed remediation criteria for the site along with all soil material failing the aesthetic soil criteria will be required to be removed from site or adequately remediated and validated. In order to facilitate the remediation of the site, a RAP will be required to be developed to detail the remediation strategies for the site. Additional soil investigation will be required to further define areas of identified contamination. Validation sampling will be required to confirm that contaminated material has successfully been removed/remediated, enabling the site to be removed from the EMR. Based on the results of the current investigation, eight areas of the site have been identified as requiring remediation, should the site be required to be removed from the EMR. Remediation areas have been based on an investigation grid of either 30m x 30m or 50m x 50m and as such, it is recommended that additional testing be undertaken to further delineate the horizontal and vertical extent of the identified contamination. The extent and depth of contamination described in the sections below have been calculated from current available information and are estimates only. Estimated remediation areas are presented on Drawing No. 8, with further discussion of each area provided below. butlerpartners.com.au Page 37 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 8.1.2.1 Subsurface Conditions As an aid to stratigraphic interpretation at the site, ten cross sections (Sections 1A-2A, 1B-2B, 4A, 5A, 5B, 6A, 7A, 8A, 9A and 9B) have been drawn through each of the proposed remediation areas (excluding Remediation Area 3), with the sections shown on Drawing No. 10 to Drawing No. 13, attached. For a detailed description of the subsurface conditions encountered at the test locations, the Bore and Test Pit Report sheets should be consulted. Further discussions of the subsurface conditions are presented below. 8.1.2.2 Remediation Area 1 Uncontrolled fill (including building rubble) has been placed in the former gully during construction of a „dam wall‟ and subsequent filling behind the dam wall as well as within the gully to the north of the dam wall. The base of fill material behind the dam wall was not determined due the large amount of building rubble intercepted. Concentrations of heavy metals above the adopted soil investigation criteria were detected in surface fill material located to the north of the dam wall. Drawing No. 10 presents two cross-sections through Remediation Areas 1 and 2 (Sections 1A-2A and 1B-2B) indicating the location of uncontrolled fill material and identified soil contamination. Investigation has not been undertaken within the electrical easement, which is likely to contain fill materials, in order for this area to be investigated, temporary termination and rerouting of the high voltage electrical cables would be required and is likely to incur significant cost. The cross-sections highlight the filled gully and the highly variable nature of the fill material. It indicates that both aesthetically unsuitable material and contaminated fill are present at the ground surface in this area. This indicates that if excavation of this material to remediate this area is not undertaken, works will be required to manage the area and make it suitable for its future land use (note – the land would remain on the EMR as a „managed‟ site).

Page 38 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 8.1.2.3 Remediation Area 2 Comprises land to the north of the former cattle dip and spray race and includes uncontrolled filling in two former gullies located along the north eastern and south western boundaries of Area 2. Concentrations of DDT above the adopted soil investigation criteria have been detected in fill and natural soils to greater than 1.5m depth. Drawing No. 10 presents two cross-sections through Remediation Areas 1 and 2 (Sections 1A2A and 1B-2B) indicating the location of uncontrolled fill material and identified soil contamination. Investigation has not been undertaken within the electrical easement, which is likely to contain fill material and elevated concentrations of DDT. For this area to be investigated, temporary termination and re-routing of the high voltage electrical cables would be required and is likely to incur significant cost. The cross-sections highlight the filled gully and the highly variable nature of the fill material. It indicates that both aesthetically unsuitable material and contaminated fill are present at the ground surface in this area. As a result, if excavation of this material to remediate this area is not undertaken, works will be required to manage the area and make it suitable for its future land use (note – this will result in the land remaining on the EMR as a „managed‟ site).

On-site treatment or off-site treatment at a licensed facility. 8.1.2.4 Remediation Area 3 Uncontrolled fill comprising building rubble was identified to a depth of up to 3.0m within an infilled gully. During remediation of the road easement (King Arthur Terrace), fill material containing building rubble and asbestos cement sheeting was identified to remain in the vicinity of Remediation Area 3 to a depth of 3.0m, with material removed during the road construction reported to contain concentrations of heavy metals and DDT above the adopted remediation criteria. No investigation was undertaken during the most recent works in this area due to access restrictions and the presence of a pedestrian footpath, as such no cross-section has been drawn through Remediation Area 3. butlerpartners.com.au Page 39 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 Remediation Extent 120m x 15m Contaminant Uncontrolled fill (Building rubble, asbestos cement sheeting) Excavation Depth 0 – 3.0m Remediation Options Asbestos impacted material disposed to landfill Building rubble not containing asbestos or contamination to be managed in accordance with Section 6.1.3.

Fill has been identified to a depth of 4.2m with elevated concentrations of heavy metals and DDT identified within fill and natural soils. Drawing No. 11 shows two sections through Remediation Area 5 (Sections 5A and 5B) indicating the location of uncontrolled fill along with identified soil contamination. These sections indicate that the aesthetically unsuitable material is generally near the top of the fill profile with contamination mainly associated with deeper fill and natural soil, detected in BPB5 only.

Elevated concentrations of PAH, DDT and heavy metals were identified in fill materials. Drawing No. 12 shows a section through Remediation Area 7 (Section 7A) indicating the location of uncontrolled fill along with identified soil contamination. This section indicates that contamination is generally restricted to surface fill materials in this area. A localised area of unsuitable fill has been identified at TP16 at the western end of Remediation Area 7.

Drawing No. 12 presents a cross-section through Remediation Area 8 (Section 8A) indicating the location of uncontrolled fill along with identified soil contamination. This cross-section indicates that the uncontrolled fill thickness decreases moving south from the road as the natural topography rises. TP25 within Remediation Area 8 contained aesthetically unsuitable material and further investigation of this area to assess the extent of this material is necessary.

Remediation Area 9 Uncontrolled fill was identified to a depth of 1.3m, with elevated concentrations of Ni identified between 0m to 0.5m depth and burnt timber and charcoal between 0.5m to 0.9m depth. Drawing No. 13 presents two cross-sections through Remediation Area 9 indicating the location of uncontrolled fill along with identified soil contamination. These cross-sections indicate that the fill material identified at TP9 may be a localised occurrence. It also indicates that the contamination is restricted to surface fill and aesthetically unsuitable material lies beneath. This may indicate a burial pit used for demolition material and covered over with more suitable fill. Further delineation of this area would be beneficial.

Additional Areas Fill comprising coal, ash and traces of brick were identified at test locations TP11, TP26, TP31, TP32, TP37, TP39, TP45 and B53 as shown on Drawing No. 7. Although the material observed is not considered to require remediation, additional investigations should be undertaken to further characterise the composition and extent of fill material in these locations. butlerpartners.com.au Page 42 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 8.1.3 Remove a Portion of the Site from DERM’s EMR An alternative to removing the entire site from the EMR would be to subdivide and leave on the EMR, with an approved SMP, portions of the site that are not commercially viable to remediate to a standard that would permit removal from the EMR. The „clean‟ portions of the site that have been subdivided from the „Managed‟ areas could then be removed from the EMR. Please note the subdivided land that remains „Managed‟ and on the EMR may still require remediation works, however, depending on the proposed land use the remediation works may not be as extensive for removal of the land from the EMR. For this strategy to proceed it will be necessary to develop the remediation plan in close consultation with the development plans for the site. New SMPs would be required at the completion of works. It should also be noted that DERM will not approve a low density residential landuse for Managed sites. butlerpartners.com.au Page 43 Yeerongpilly Landing Development Fairfield Road, Yeerongpilly Project No. 009-173A April 2010 SECTION 9 - CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS 9.1 Conclusions Based on the work undertaken in this Stage 2 ESA, it is concluded that: the site is listed on the EMR for the Notifiable Activity of „Livestock dip or spray race – operating a livestock dip or spray race facility‟; extensive uncontrolled fill has occurred over portions of the site, including building rubble, incinerator waste, ash, coal and asbestos cement sheeting; concentrations of B(a)P, DDT, As, Cd, Cu, Pb, Ni and Zn were identified above the adopted investigation criteria in fill and natural soils; concentrations of PAH, B(a)P and Pb were identified above the adopted investigation criteria and above the HIL-D criteria for ongoing use as medium to high density residential landuses, in fill material; concentrations of DDT were identified above the maximum disposal concentration for landfill licensing agreements; and other contaminants analysed were within the adopted investigation criteria. 9.2 Recommendations Several areas of contamination have been identified within the boundaries of the site. Potential remediation of these areas is discussed in Section 8.0. Based on the results of this investigation and an understanding of DIP‟s plans for the site, the following recommendations are made: 1. Given the size and complexity of the site, a Third Party Reviewer (TPR) should be commissioned in order to facilitate matters relating to contaminated land on behalf of DERM. 2. Additional investigation will be required in areas unable to be assessed during the current site investigation including areas beneath and surrounding existing site structures (buildings) and within site easements. 3. In order to further assess the extent of contamination for the purposes of calculating proposed remediation volumes and associated costs, it is recommended that additional testing be undertaken to more accurately define the vertical and lateral extent of identified contamination. 4. Additional groundwater investigation should be undertaken at the site to assess the potential contamination of groundwater beneath the site from site activities. As part of this, additional groundwater wells should be installed in the vicinity of areas of identified contamination, potential environmental receptors and site boundaries to augment existing groundwater wells located within the site. butlerpartners.com.au Page 44
