ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION and DOCUMENTATION

Viper Products and Services (Viper) utilizes modern methods for a greener environment by using VREW 9250 (a non-hazardous enzyme) for in-situ remediation of hydrocarbons. Where in-situ remediation is not permissible, Viper will excavate and dispose of contaminated soils using a several step process that includes, but not limited to:

∙ Site Map which includes Release Area and Sample Points

∙ Initial Field Soil Sampling where contamination appears to be highest

∙ Bore Sampling via environmental drilling rig

∙ Confirmatory results from an independent Certified Laboratory

∙ Excavation Diagram

∙ Corrective Action Plan that includes detailed description of the work to be performed and supporting documentation for justification

∙ Environmentally safe and efficient Soil Remediation

∙ Replacement excavated soils with clean, like material

∙ Seeding of affected area where necessary

∙ Closure Reports showing and summarizing entire process

∙ Encompassing documentation of every process

The following pages are examples of the step by step process of work performed by Viper and the Documentation that goes with it. This example is for a Site in New Mexico. Actual reports include Laboratory Reports as well as further photo documentation of work being performed.

Generic Location Corrective Action Plan 8 Sample Points (SP) were delineated to below 250 parts per million (ppm) chlorides. Laboratory analytical shows that only two points were above 1000-ppm chloride: SP2, SP4. (See locations on Site Map)

Analytical Results from field samples confirmed from Certified Laboratory are shown on Sample Summary Page.

The affected areas will be excavated down to 4’ around SP2 and 2’ around SP4. Sidewall sampling at half the depth will take place during excavation to ensure affected area is fully remediated. See Excavation Diagram.

The Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) have been addressed on the surface to 1’ deep utilizing a non-hazardous enzyme (VREW 9250) that breaks down the hydrocarbon and returns the soil back to pre-release conditions. The soil was tilled and the enzyme was applied through a water media to ensure full saturation. Affected vegetation that did not recover will be removed and disposed of with remediated soils at an appropriate disposal facility.

The remediated area will then be backfilled with clean topsoil, cultivated, and seeded with Prairie Chicken #2 seed mix.

Closure Report

Summary of Activities

The Generic Location site was delineated utilizing 8 sample points. (See Site Map) Deepest contamination of chlorides was located at 4 feet on sample point 2. Attached analytical data confirms sampling activities. No Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons were found at actionable levels below the surface.

A polygon was excavated around Sample Point 2 to a depth of 4 feet. The excavated polygon around Sample Point 4 reached 2’. (See Excavation Plan in Site Map Section)

Sidewall samples were taken in order to ensure no actionable levels of chlorides remained. (See Analytical Section)

Dead vegetation was removed and entire release area was cultivated and sprayed with VREW 9250, an environmentally friendly formulation of digestive enzymes that breaks down and dissolves oil and grease. The non-hazardous enzymes perform bio-remediation in-situ, breaking down the hydrocarbons which, in turn, fertilize the soil.

70 cubic yards of clean topsoil was brought in to replace the contaminated soil remediated. The new topsoil was contoured and cultivated to surrounding ground level and seeded with 10 pounds of BLM #2 seed mix. (See Photo section)

Site was seeded on 07/12/2014. (See Seed Ticket)
