Attention: Mr. Victor Alvarez

Subject: Notice of Intent (NOl)Construction Dewatering175 Wyman StreetWaltham, MA

Dear Mr. Alvarez:

In accordance with the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) RemediationGeneral Permit (RGP) in Massachusetts, MAG910000, this letter submits a Notice of Intent(NOl) and the applicable documentation as required by the US Environmental ProtectionAgency (EPA) for construction site dewatering under the RGP. Dewatering is planned insupport of the construction activities proposed at the 175 Wyman Street site, located in

Waltham, Massachusetts (Figure 1 - Project Locus).

The property owner, Hobbs Brook Management, LLC, plans to construct two, two storybuildings within the project limits. The proposed below-grade construction wil consist ofexcavation and installation for building footings, utility installations, and for a proposed belowgrade access tunnel leading to an existing groundwater recovery well at one of the buildinglocations. Planned site improvements wil also include construction of a stormwater detentionbasin in the southwestern portion of the property. The storm water basin wil be lined andconstructed above the observed water table. The limits of work wil also include excavationsfor utility installations and landscaping. Excavations wil extend below the range of normalgroundwater levels measured at the site.

The 175 Wyman Street property occupies a 27.5 acre parcel located east of Route 128 , on

Wyman Street in Waltham. The former owner of the property used the building complex from1959 to 1995 for the manufacture of medical equipment and printed circuit boards.

The limits of work include one state disposal site with Release Tracking Number (RTN) 3-13311 issued by the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) andsubject to the Massachusetts Contingency Plan (MCP), 310 CMR 40.0000. A release ofchlorinated volatile organic compounds (CVOC - primarily TCE) possibly from a former sewerline under a portion of the existing buildings is suspected to be the historical source of CVOCsthat have been detected in the groundwater primarily at depth. The groundwater contamination

extends into the fractured bedrock. The former owner is the party conducting response actionsat the MCP site.

GZA GeoEnvironmental , Inc. (GZA) has been conducting remedial response actions at theproperty to address the CVOCs in groundwater since 1997. The primary purpose of theremedial actions is to contain the CVOC plume and prevent migration of contaminants. Theremedial actions undertaken at the MCP site have involved the installation and operation of aGroundwater Containment and Treatment System (GTCS). The MCP site is currently inRemedy Operation Status (ROS) under the MCP. Construction activities within the limits ofthe MCP site are being conducted under a Release Abatement Measure (RAM) Plan.

ln support of the NOl, a groundwater sample was collected from one groundwater monitoringwell (MW- 101) located within the project site and near locations where proposed constructionmay encounter groundwater. The results of water quality testing conducted for this NOl aresummarized in Table 1. The location of the groundwater monitoring well is shown on Figure 3.

Dewatering wil be conducted from sumps located at the area of local excavations within theproposed foundation limits, and at the proposed stormwater basin excavation location.Dewatering is necessary to control precipitation, surface water runoff and construction-generated water to enable construction in-the-dry. It may also be needed to control groundwaterseepage. Construction dewatering may be needed on-site as soon as 15 September 2008.

Prior to discharge, collected water wil be routed through a sedimentation tank and bag fiter , at

a minimum, to remove suspended solids and undissolved chemical constituents (metals), asshown in the Proposed Treatment System Schematic included in Figure 2 herein. Followingtreatment, the effluent wil be piped and directly discharged to storm drains located within andadjacent to the site. ln general , the storm drains cross Wyman Street and discharge into an off-site detention pond adjacent to Route 128N. The detention pond discharges to the CambridgeReservoir. The proposed discharge route is shown on Figure 3, Proposed Dewatering DischargeRoute.

The completed "Suggested Notice of lntent" (NOl) form as provided in the RGP is enclosed inAppendix A. The site owner is the Hobbs Brook Management, LLC, and the operator isColumbia Construction Company (Columbia). Columbia is the general contractor and wil hirea subcontractor to conduct the Site Work, including the dewatering activities. On behalf of theowner, an environmental consultant wil monitor the Contractor s dewatering activities. Inaccordance with the requirements for this NOl submission, the owner and Contractor are listedas co-permittees for this NPDES RGP and have both signed the NOl form.

Appendix B provides Material Data Safety Sheets (MSDS) and fact sheets for possible chemicaladditives or treatments to be used in the treatment system. A Best Management Practices Plan(BMPP) has been completed and is included in Appendix C. The BMPP outlines the proposeddischarge operations covered under the RGP. Appendix D and E include National Register ofHistoric Places and Endangered Species Act documentation. A copy of the laboratory resultsare provided in Appendix F.

In order to complete this section, the applicant wil need to take a minimum of one sample of the untreated water and have it analyzed for allof the parameters listed in Appendix III. Historical data , (i. , data taken no more than 2 years prior to the effective date of the permit) may be used if obtained pursuant to:i. Massachusetts ' regulations 310 CMR 40. 0000 , the Massachusetts Contingency Plan ("Chapter 2lE"); ii. New Hampshire s Title 50 RSA 485-A: Water Pollution and

Waste Disposal or Title 50 RSA 485-C: Groundwater Protection Act; or iii. an EP A permit exclusion letter issued pursuant to 40 CFR 122. , provided the data was

analyzed with test methods that meet the requirements of this permit. Otherwise , a new sample shall be taken and analyzed.

a) Based on the analysis of the sample(s) of the untreated influent , the applicant must check the box of the sub-categories that the potential discharge falls within.

Fuel Oils (and VOC with Other Petroleum with Other Listed Contaminated Contaminated Hydrostatic Testing of Well Development

Other Oils) only Contaminants Contaminants Sites Dredge Condensates Pipelines/T anks or Rehabilitation

b) Based on the analysis ofthe untreated influent , the applicant must indicate whether each listed chemical is believed present or believed absent in the potential

discharge. Attach additional sheets as needed.
