BB&T Morehead City

S&ME performed a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment at the BB&T Hotel Site in Morehead City, North Carolina. The property consisted of three parcels located at 2800 and 2806 Arendell Street and 105 28th Street. Within the property area there was an open hotel called the Buccaneer Inn, and a vacant former restaurant called the Anchor Inn. The Phase I ESA included research of the public records that could have a potential impact on the property. S&ME also conducted a site reconnaissance of the surrounding areas within a one-mile search radius and concluded that a gas station was formerly located on the property which leads to the potential that the soil and groundwater on the subject property may have been impacted by a release of petroleum products, metals from waste oil, solvents or other automotive fluids.

Our teams performed a vapor intrusion assessment report, work plan, receptor survey, installed a vapor intrusion barrier and provided testing observation services. S&ME also prepared and submitted an engineered design for a Vapor Intrusion Barrier System to be installed beneath the building, as well as observed and documented the installation and smoke test verification of the Liquid Boot membrane layer and performed quality assurance thickness testing in conformance with the manufacturer’s installation specifications. The approved Vapor Intrusion Barrier System consists of a Cetco® barrier system that includes:

  • A GeoVent® venting system;
  • A BaseFabric® base layer;
  • A LiquidBoot® membrane layer; and,
  • An UltraShield® G-1000 protective layer.

S&ME performed a Phase II Soil and Groundwater Assessment at the site. Soil and groundwater samples were taken and analyzed. The geophysical assessment did identify minor anomalies across the eastern portion of the site, including a group of localized anomies near the former pump island of the gasoline service station; however none of them were large enough to represent an UST.

S&ME also performed a geotechnical assessment for the building and pavement areas on the property and provided new design recommendations.
